PARIS TURF SCANDAL.
Tod Sloan More Sinned Against Than
Shining.

A special from Paris says that it seems
probable now that the celebrated Paris turf
scandal will be sifted within a short
time that the real card Sharps and horse
pullers can be clearly separated from the
class Of turfmen known as square and le-
Ultimate. There are four men, two of whom
are Americans, one an Engishman and one
an Australian, who have been closely ex-
amined by the police, and it is said that
they have consented to sit for their pic
lures.
A well-known turfman said: ''For the last
three or four days L have not seen these
men browsing in their usual quarters. 1
cannot say where they are, but perhaps
they have been favored with railway passes
on the lines leaving to neighboring coun-
tries. There is a strong impression among
many persons connected with legitimate
horse racing in France that somebody who
was being uncomfortably crowded thought
1t wise to give sudden prominence to the
names of men who are upright and respect
able turfmen in order to keep the saving
shadow of uncertainty over their own heads
until the storm passes away.
Il am of the opinion that Tod Sloan for
example, has been more snned against
than SHINING. Sloan is not at present wal
lowing in money, and it seems to me that
il he had been having the advantage of
things for some time, as reported, he would
be in better shape financially"
