FREEZING OUT
THE POOL ROOMS

NEW YORK, April lin an effort to en-
tirely disassociate racing in this state
from any connection with poolroom gam
bling in New York city or elsewhere, the
Queens County Jockey Club at Aqueduct
yesterday took charge of all telegraph
wires running Into the grounds and estab-
lished strict censorship over all tele-
grams. incoming and outgoing. with
deadline delay of twenty minutes on all OF
the outgoing messages.
All telephone connection with the track
has been discontinued. and the only way
that the results OF the races could be
known TO the outside world quicker than
the time limit fixed by the Jockey Club
was by the sending OF messengers from
the track Enclosure to some point In the
vicinity OF Aqueduct where telephone
was available.
To give the necessary Information to the
pooirooms this year news agency has
been established The representatives OF
this agency who were at Aqueduct yester-
day prepared to file information on the
races In commercial telesrams were taken

CURE WON FROM
WIZARD" SCHAEFER

NEW YORK. April 17.-Louls Cure the
big Frenchman. defeated Jake Schaefer last
night by score of 500 to $50 in the 1872
balkline billiard championship In progress
at Madison Square Garden. The game
was remarkable In many ways, Schaefer
was over 100 points ahead at one time
Cure rallied In the eleventh inning AL
though the balls did not break very good
for him, his execution brilliant in the
extreme. In the second inning Schaefer
got the balls down i'll the lower right hand
corner and with a splendid stroke he
clicked OF o. playing very close billiards.
In the thirteenth inning the Wizard
gathered the balls for pretty break of 119
caroms. after which he did practically
nothing. Cure won out by consistent work.

In the afternoon game Cutler defeated
Morningstar by 500 tc $50.
Before the game started the adherents
of the Boston Ilaycr laid to 1 on their
favorite's chances. and We're very fortunate
to cash IN their bets
UP to the twenty-seventh inning the
Hoosier was leading by a margin of 90. but
Cutler got a very lucky set up. and man.

through.
THIS high count put him In the lead. and
in eight more shots he made the required
number.
was not one that would set the river on fire.
At times their work was very poor. both
missing some very easy shots, and to
counter balance. they would make some of
the most difficult shpss that ever fell to the
lot of a player. Morningstar was the
cleverer at nursing, while Cutters long suit
was open table play.
Cutler made up for his bad play when
he got his high run, and in this inning he
gave a first-clazs exhibition of baik-hne
billiards. Both of these players are the
tail-enders. All 10 lot seem to have a
possible chance of being in the money, I'M
less Sutton and Cure fail to win games.

Cured Yesterday the Information was
not available to race patrons until after
the results of the previous race had been
verified and posted. The Withholding of
this Information is a severe blow to the
poorroom service. without 1t the propri-
etors and betters in such establishments
must operate largely In the dark.
Various subterfuges were resorted to to
overcome the obStcles set by the Jockey
Club. but the sending OF messages to nearby
points to telephone the results was the
only progress the poolroom interests made
against the new order of things. In each
instance the messenger had to repay his ad-
mission into the grounds, So fee being
exacted for the grandstand Enclosure.
Further efforts undoubtedly will be made
to establish system of transmitting race
news, but the Jockey Club officials say
they have done everything within their
power to abolish the poolrooms.
The system adopted at Aqueduct was I'M
der the direction of the Jockey Club. the
controlling body of the eastern turf, and
will prevail at all tracks in this state dur

Not content with giving the George

them, the final score being 20 to 0.
The visitors played fine game. as only
one misplay was recorded against their
team. Davis was on the rubber for the
Syracuse team and had excellent control
He allowed but two hits. each of which
was good for but one base, and eleven OF
the 'Hatchets" bit the dust by his good
work. For the home team Capt. Bradley
gave Shea trial in the box, but he lasted
only three innings. as five hits had been
secured Off him, which resulted in six runs
Carr was given a trial and he was no bet
ter. During the three and one-half innings
In which he performed the New York boys

runs, ten of which came in the sixth In
ming. Before the sixth inning was closed
Thomas was sent in to try and stem the
tide, but there was nothing doing along the
line, as the trusty willows of the visitors
were playing merry tune on the leather.
Besides the battery work for the Syracuse
team, Rutherford at short and Wheeler at
second played a fine game. For the locals.
Weber caught a good game and Price and
Senior played well In the field. The error
chalked up against Senior was excusable.
