DIRE THREAT MADE
Horse Breeders Assn.'s Attorney
Threatens to, Club the Agri- I
cultural Society.
If Association Cannot Hold Races at
Hamline the Society Must
-. Pay Rent.

Protests OF the most vigorous character
were made against the passage of the
Hanaford pool selling bill, before the
house committee on general legislation
last evening. The committee was made
thoroughly acquainted with the provisions
of the bill, and from the expressions of
members it. seems certain that the bill
will be killed by the committee, Which
consider it again Friday evening. 49,.
Speakers showed the committee that
the proposed law would create a Monte
Carlo of the state fair grounds. It not
only requires the lease Of the grounds for
forty-fVe days to- the promoters of the
bill, but requires the managers of the
fair to lease to- any one else at the rate of
$3.50 a day. The anti-pool selling law is
suspended on the grounds whenever there
is a racing meeting, and this means that
from early spring, till Sept 1 the betting
fraternity and their following would have
full swing on the grounds, and pools
would not only be sold on the races oc-
curing there but on all races in the
country. '''"
Matt Gallagher Of this city, who ap-
peared as spokesman for the Minnesota
Horse Breeders association, was not con-
tent with arguing the merits Of the propo:
sition, but threatened that if he was
turned down he would 60 into the courts
