betting fraternity today and dropped
fully $4,000 on one race. The coup was
made in the third race in New Orleans.
where those in tie secret plunged heaN-
lily on Onondague to win. The odds
were long at the start but so much mon
ey poured in that the books cut the odds
down to to at the post time. Evon
then the money kept pouring in and
finally some of the books refused to take
any more bets on Onondague. The Elm
hurst book, which had a capital of $40,
OO0 was compelled to retire from busi-
ness after it had met its losses. The
Roby book was compelled to close un-
til arrangements were made to borrow
money. All losses were paid, but it is
poorer by $4,000.
The books received another heavy
blow during the day. A heavy play W" S
made on Ferrier to win in the fourth
race at Ingleside.
Several of the books are decidedly
groggy tonight. and they may not open
up tomorrow. Nearly all of the money
went to what Is known as the Feather
stone-Ryan combination of bettors."
