COOK COUNTY
GAMBLING AND
RACING DOOMED

Chicago, July 27.-After indicting "a
bookmakers yesterday afternoon the
grand jury ordered SLeriff Barrett 10
take immediate steps to stop all gam
bling at the race tracks of Cook county.
The sheriff promised he would comply
with the jury's request in every detail.
If the orders are carried out it means
the absolute suppression Of any book
making or gambling whatever at the
tracks. With the ban against betting
enforced it is believed the tracks will
be compelled to close their gates, as
was the case at Washington park when
the mayor prohibited all forms of bet
ting at that track in June. The sheriff
says the crusade against the bookmak-
ers will begin today at Hawthorne.

Claims Strike Well in Hand.

Appleton-There has been a rumor
floating about the Fox river valley for
several days past, to the effect that
President Mackey intended to call out
all the papermakers of the country in
an attempt to tie up the business of
the paper mills, in order to assist the
local strikers. This he denied, stating
that no such action would be taken at
this time. He stated that conditions
here did not warrant it, as the Fox
river papermakers' union had the
strike well in hand. 1t is claimed by
the mill owners that the backbone of
the strike is broken. At a meeting of
the brotherhood a number of machine
tenders announced their intention to
resume work.

WALL FOR GOVERNOR
PLAN AT FOND DU LAC, TO HAVE
HIM RUN FOR OFFICE.

Fond du Lac, Wis, July PA story
reached Fond du Lac yesterday morn.
ing from Milwaukee, that leading dem.
ocrats in that city, who were interest
ed in the candidacy of Edward c. Wall
for president, had formulated a plan
for presenting his name at the state
convention at Oshkosh as a candidate
for governor. 1t is said that meeting
of the Wall men was held last Satur.
day, and the matter was fully dis.
cussed and actually decided upon.
The plan, so the story goes, was co
keep the movement a secret and spring
it at the Oshkosh gathering. While a
recent VISIT of w. ]. Bryan to Mr.
Wallis residence may not have any
thing to do with it, it is believed here
that the Nebraskan is interested in
having the Milwaukeean's name put VI
and that Melvin A. Hoyt was called in
at the time of the visit to take the for
mer presidential candidate in hand
and quietly push him for the nomina
ton.
Fond du Lac democrats do not favor
Wall, the majority preferring ex-Gov
Peck. They declare it is now higf
time to get away from Organism and il
Wall is put up, he would only be &
mouth-piece to further Bryan's cause
and renew his power. With the story
comes the report that Bryan will make
trip to Milwaukee in a few days, anC
he may be present at the time of tbs
state democratic meeting.
