POOLROOMS CUT OFF
Western Union Stops All
Race Track Wire Services.
CRIPPLES GAMBLING FRATERNITY
Estimate Made That Three Hundred
Poolrooms May Go Out of BUSH
ness-Resu1t OF Captain Cod
dard'a Exposure.

NEW YORK, May 49, - Absolutely
cut off from their race track service by
the Western Union Telegraph company
the 200 and odd poolrooms of this city
which had used it still continued bust
ness, but their transactions were most
~ on the handbook basis. Bets were
taken from Regulars, but no money
could be placed after a certain time
before the start of each race.
The action of the Western Union in
withdrawing the race track service is
thought to have been forced by the dis
trict attorney.
The Bowling bill, it is said, gives
Mr.. Jerome power to summon witnesses
and to proceed against the Western
Union, and it is believed that the de-
termined attitude of the district attor-
ney had its moral effect on the Western
Union directors.
Captain r. Norton Goddard, superin-
tendent of the Antipolicy society, and
Mr.. Jerome were in close conference
early in the day with view, 1t is said,
of pressing rigid investigation of the
poolroom Geographic service.
1t was not until o'clock in the after
noon that Colonel Clowry announced
the cessa ton of the poolroom service.
Wires, however, were cut at about 8
O'clock in the morning District At
torney Jerome was taken unawares by
the announcement. He had been max
ing plans for an investigation of the
company's action In delivering horse
racing information to poolrooms, and
Justice Wyatt in special sessions, 1t is
said, had planned to issue at 5 o'clock
subpoenas calling the Western Union
officials before him this morning.
When Mr.. jerome, however, heard of
Colonel Clowry's statement he said he
would do nothing now, but declined to
say what would be his future course in
the case.
Police Commissioner McAdoo said
that If all the poolrooms had been cut
of as announced that form of the vice
of gambling had received most dan
gerous blow and that if it survived at
all it would have to do so under other
forms and devices.
Within New York city it is estimated
that there are 300 poolrooms, of which
probably 200 paid the Western Union
$25 day for service.
The antigambling news order is sup
posed to be the result of Captain Nor
ton Goddard's exposure OF the relations
of Western Union officials with the
poolroom interests and the ease with
which his agents arranged, as they
made affidavit, to have poolroom sery-
ice installed in dummy" ROOFS

h'CINNITY HURT BADLY.
New FORKS Crack Twirler Disabled
by a Pitched BAH.

PIttsburg, May 18.-Pitcher. Joe Me-
Glnnity Of the New York team was
painfully injured in yesterdays game
with Pittsburg. He was hit in tba
breast by a swiftly pitched ball in the
nth inning, and though he finished the
game apparently stronger than ever.
ms breast panied him to an alarming
degree last evening and he remained in
MS room in the Monongahela house to
nurse MS injury. There were two men
on bases when the pitch which laid
McGinnity low was made. The ban
struck him full in the breast, and he
w!hlrled and fell to the ground. with
ing. He was rubbed and soaked with
water. and after delay of five min
utes limped to the base.
1t McGinnity is seriously hurt it will
put the New York pitching staff in a
bad way. Mathewson has been hit
hard this season, and Ames is not in
shape. The bulk of the work has
fallen to McGinnity, who has been the
teams chief help in the box, not hav-
ing lost a game this season.

Sometimes the honors would be with tbs
dog and sometimes with the rooster.
Usually Mr. Tweedy had to separate
them to keep them both alive. Now ha
is suffering with a broken colIar-bona
because of his last attempt to act as
peacemaker. He had tied "Corbett" To
the front stoop and had given him tho
run of rope about a rod long.
"Jeffries'' was supposed to be in the back
yard.
ALI seemed peaceful as Mr.. Tweedy
stepped out to take walk in the mid
day air. He was just recovering from
broken leg. and the spring day was
grateful to him. "Jeffries" suddenly
came in sight around the corner Of the
house. The next moment dog, chicken
and man were all mixed up in heap.
The brindle bull pup had seen his enc
envy and, making bolt for the chickens
had tangled the legs of Mr.. Tweedy in
the several yards of rope. Mr.. Tweedy
landed on his shoulder and arose with al
broken collar-bone. "Jeffries'' escaped
to the back yard, while "Corbett" tried
in vain to get loose.
This Is the third serious accident Mr..
Tweedy has had from these same two
pets A couple of months ago he broke
his leg by slipping on the ice when he
was hurrying to the rescue of 9 Jeffries.'
and a month before that he sprained his
wrist in the same fashion.

Twin" Sullivan Whips
Gus Gardner-NOteS.

In Philadelphia the sports have a
high opinion of Eddie Hanlon, the
California fighter. The other night
Hanlon and Sam Harris, Ferry Me-
Governs manager, had heated argu-
ment as to the relative tistic abilities
of Terry and Hanlon. The latter sail
that he would like to face AcGovern
at 1913 pounds, but Harris declared
that his man was after a battle with
either Britt or Young Corbett at pres
ept. Bob Deadly of Philadelphia, n
we'll known fighting promoter OF that
city, who was present at TIE discus
sion, offered to bet $4,000 that Han
Ion will whip McGovern any time they
meet. He was prepared to post ST.
600 then and there to bind the mill.
Harris did not take him up. Deadly
says that he will keep after McGovern
and that If the latter accepts his offer
will hold good. Now that Britt and
Corbett have been matched and are
pledged not to meet anyone else until
they meet again, Harris may cllsIlge
his mind and make the match.

DIXON WAS BEATEy

George Dixon's persistent boxing of
late has evidently had it's effect ON him,
for the wonderful negro was defeated
on points in a fifteen-round bout with
Cockney Cohen of Leeds This was
the third meeting between the pair, and
as Dixon has easily shown his superb
GRITTY in the previous essays, his friends
naturally expected him to best Cohen.
But Dixon was far from being himself
when he entered the ring. He seemed
stale and weak and showed signs of
increasing years Cohen was strong
and active and outpointed Dixon two
to one.
