Vicious Touts Who Steal.

Nothing could possibly detract more
from the interest in the races at the
track. than the band of vicious touts in
evidence every day and nothing could be
a more pronounced knock" agaist the
sport. than that same aggregation. They
are the lowest type of that genus found
at all tracks and they are unscrupu-
lous. to such degree, that they think
nothing of stealing, in order to get
money. That was evidenced yesterday
when tout snatched pool ticket from
the hand of an investor and attempted
to get away. He ran a short distance
when he fell and before he could regain
his feet, was overhauled by Detective
Jerry Murphy and sent to jail Another
tout attempted to steal stack of bills
from one of the books. He was caught
as he attempted to grab the money. The
police have declared their intention of
making it lively for the touts and when
they do, the race patrons will have lit
tie peace. The track management should
see to it that race goers are protected.
