track on Monday. failed to put in an appear

Yankee Gun may turn out TO be one OF the
star two-year-olds. Oscar Lewisohn bought
him from John E. Madden as a y~earling for
$4,000 and yesterday Madden tried to buy him
back for s25, 900. But Lewisohn believes that
the half brother to Gunlre will prove Of more
value to him than the price offered. In fact

there will be no open bookmaking with states

Quoted strictly on the English and Australian
system, with handbooks and credit waRers.
No money will be passed between players

take some time for the public at large to get

Interference with speculation on the credit
system any more than with an individual
wager between Two men on the result Of a
ball game. The test is q novel one and will
be watched with interest by persons inter-
ested In racing all over the country.
