Chicago, June 2O.-Although a fairly
good program was offered at Wash
ington Park not more than 1000 per-
sons saw the events run off. The same
conditions that governed the racing
Saturday prevailed today. the edict Of
Mayor Harrison against wagering
money on the races being rigidly en-
forced. What little betting If any
that was done was transacted in secret
and between friends. Nearly 200
policemen under Assistant Chief
Schuettler were there to see that the
ultimatum against betting was adher-
ed to and in view of the fact not a
single effort was made by any of the
fifty or more idle bookmakers to
transact business. On the correspond
ing day last year with the conditions at
the track the same as today with the
exception that bookmaking was allow
ed, more than 5000 persons paid ad-
mission to the grounds. The officials
of the track declare that despite the
poor attendance and the consequent
loss of money the meeting will run the
twenty-five days no matter how much
it will cost the Washington Park
