clded TO rule stephen LHommedieu, a

dieu was said 10 be broke last month,
and those who know his methods looked
for some sort OF a turn from him.
Ever since his debut as a prominent
turfman in 1905, LHommedieu's career
has been varied. He has been repeatedly
ordered of Of nearly every race course IN
the country. He first came into promi-
nence as plunger in 1898, in which year
he is said 20 have cleared half million
dollars by turf speculations. OF late

but finally got out OF the scrape. The
trouble was started by L'Hommedieu up
braidng Pnkerton for having him barred
from the Chicago race courses.
In December Of the same years L'Hom'
medieu was barred from the New Or
leans trotting courses because OF his
crooked manipulation OF his trotter Rush.
The plunger started his horse four times
and each time the trotter was badly beat
en-. Then a good price was offered against
the horse. and after BHommedieu had
bet large chunks OF money on the race,
Rush won easily. An investigation by the
stewards resulted in L'Hommedieus eH-
pulsion from the track
