French Court of Appeals Says Jockey

NEW YORK, Dec. 273Tkere appears
to be another version to the case of
Jockey Tod Sloan, who was recently
supposed to have received a verdict OF

The court of appeals has just given

control OF the soeiete d Encouragement
CF'rench Jockey Club, owing to the part
he took in the preparation Of Rose dc
Mai. the winner of the Prix de Diane

Sloan argued that as ne was not the
holder of license from the Societe
d Encouragement he was not under the
jurisdiction Of the stewards. and could,
therefore. only be considered a tres
passer on their rights He thereI ore
sued the stewards OF the Societe d En-

THE first court gave a decision in his
favor, and the finding Of the court OF
appeals somewhat coneurs, although the
damages claimed by Sloan have been
disallowed and limited to the payment
of the Soeiete d'Encoura cement of his

GOT CASH ON
BOGUS CHECKS
SwindIef Claimed To Be a News.
paper Agent.

A man calling himself C. c. Kemp
and representing himself to be an
agent of C. W. Brown, publisher OF
the Hoosae Valley Democrat of Hoo
sick Falls, N. Y, went into G. F. Rist's S
clothing store in North Adams with
a check for S25 which had the signature
OF Mr. Brown, the publisher. Kemp se-
cured the S25 from Rist and left town.
Mr. Brown was in North Adams YES
terday and declared the signature a
forgery. The check was one from the
Democrat check book and Kemp, Mr.
Brown said, was a former employee
of the office.
1t also appears that Kemp secured
enough money from various local men
to enable him to place safe distance
between himself and North Adams to
hinder his capture by the police. He
cashed two other forged checks at least
in that city on the same day, one of
which was for $35. One of these, L. Z.
Higley, the jeweler of Main street, en-
dorsed and another was endorsed by
Fl. Kramer & company OF Eagle street
and the cash secured at the Troy Cash
grocery on the same street.
