L. v. BELL IS FINED.
Well Known Owner of Race Horses
Is in Trouble

New York, Nov. 12-L. ". Bell, the
well-known owner of race horses, has
been fined 5000 by the stewards of the
Jockey club at a special meeting held
in the Waldorf-Astoria. The fine was
imposed for Mr.. Bells bitter attack on
w. S. Vosburg, the official handicap
per of the Jockey club, whom he
charged with unfair discrimination in
handicapping Bells horses.
The official notice of the ruling
against Bell is:
AT a meeting of the stewards of the
Jockey club, held in the apartments of
James r. Keene at the Waldorf-Astoria
on Monday, November 9, 1903, l. ".
Bell was fined 5000 for breach of dis
cfpline in the club house of the Queens
County Jockey club at Aqueduct on
November 2, 1908, in his treatment of
the official Handicapped of the Jockey
club. ers
"ALGERNON. DAINGERFIELD.
Assistant Secretary"
A local turfnan made the following
statement on behalf of the millionaire
horseman. He said:
Mr. Bell knew on Friday last that
he would be fined 5000 by the Jockey
club for his trouble with Vosburg. On
that day he was approached by an in
fiuential member of the Jockey club
and told that he would only be fined
5000 if he would allow the matter to
drop.
MIR. Bell replied that If the fine was
imposed he would pay it, but that he
did not propose to allow the case to
end. He said that he believed that his
horses had been unjustly treated in
the matter of weights by Mr.. Vosburg
and he proposed to have hearing on
those charges before the stewards.
IF he could not have the case investi-
gated he would try to find out the rea-
son for such inaction on the part of
the turf authorities. Under no circum-
stances would he desist in his efforts
in that direction"
