sion of the board of review of the Ma
tional Trotting association the hearing OF
ten charges against the new Wetfeld,
Mass, Driving association was continued.
The driving association, 1t was alleges,
had declared bets off in one case without
inf1icting any penalty on those suspected
OF fraud, and it was also claimed that
the association had made an allowance of
a fraction of second in time in order
to keep a horse in certain class. Coun-
sci for the association admitted the al
lowing of time and pleaded that the
judges had thought 1t permissible. J he
case was taken for consideration in ex-
ecutive session.
1t was shown that Frank Fox, the
driver suspected of pulling, had openly
defied the judges with impunity and had
offered them, it is said, $500 to meet
fine that might be imposed for classifying
the records. Shoes on horses were
changed in order to make it impossible for
them to win.
J. B. Jones, of Wellsville, manager Of
Ononda Maid, the horse alleged to be
Choral, and a ringer, told Secretary
Gercher that William. Duke had arrived
here from England yesterday and had
gone to Wellsville and that his affidavit
that Choral was in his stable in England
would be made to the board.
