THREE HIGHLY-BRED
TROTTERS DRIVEN ABREAST

The attention of Westinghouse has
been attracted to very novel hitch-three
highly bred young trotters abreast to a
speed wagon and the team driving as one
horse. The hitch is not an advance agency
for some new soap or brand of smoke, nor
q forerunner OF the return of Barnum Il
Bailey, but just B. F. McCaully holding
the reins behind Charles McDermott's lat
est purchases of what he hopes will be rec
ord-breakers on the trotting turf in the
near future. Mr.. McCaully Is a master
reinsman at all kinds of bitches, from
double team to a six-in-hand. and It is not
too much to say that, with the exception
of Dunno Walton of Boston, no man living
can surpass him in hitching a double team
of fancy driving horses. The late Cicero
Hamlin of Buffalo. n. Y, was the inventor
OF triple bitches for fast-track horses, and
was the first man in the United States TO
drive fast exhibition miles with a triple
hitch. Mr.. McCaully is the only person in
this vicinity to engage in the same pas
tine, at which he has been signaily sue

RULE TO PROTECT
YOUNG STEEPLECHASERS

NEW YORK, September s.-The commit
and Hunt Association has approved an
amendment to the rules which will prohibit
a horse three years old which has raced
prior to October 1 from racing under the
rules of the association during his three
year-old year. This obviously is to bolster
up and protect the present rule, which pro-
hibits the racing of three-year-olds in
steeplechases before October /, and only
with horses of their own age, after that
date.
The ruling in regard to the three-year-
old was made to protect the young horses
and to the end that their usefulness might
not be impaired before they had been fairly
tried out over country. The amendment
is made necessary in order that owners
who race under the rules of the association
only will not have to compete with horses
from the west or from any foreign country
that might have been raced earlier than
October l.
case in point was the steeplechase at
Latonia the other day, for which two
three-year- odds, John Dillon and Wool
Dealer, both three-year-old finished first
horses. With the adoption of the proposed
amendment neither of these horses Will be
eligible for racing in the east this year.
The proposed amendment, which, II
adopted, will be made a part of Rule 20
reads:
mo entry of horse that has started
in steeplechase Or hurdle race In this
or any other country previous to Octo-
Der 1 of the year in which he is three
years old can be received for meetings
held under the rules during his three-year-
old year

MONTANA HAS NO
ANTI-BETTING LAW

HELENA, Mont, September S.-There is
no law in Montana prohibiting horse racing
or betting thereon.
This is the essence of an opinion rendered
by Attorney General Albert ]. Galen in re-
Spouse to a query from A. j. Walrath,
county attorney of Gallatn county. who
wanted to know If the sale of pools on
horse races at the county fairs throughout
the state was a gambling scheme or device
within the purview of the provisions of Sen
ate bill No. "a session laws of 1901. and
which must stand until reversed by the su-
preme court. Attorney General Galen an
swers in the negative, unless the act re-
ferred to is broad enough to include these
matters
The provisions of this law he proceeds to
discuss, and says that the first three sec
lions are the prohibiting sections. He says
that the statutory provision that a game
OF chance played with a device Is not
broad enough to include horse racing. He
refers to, numerous decisions in other states,
and especially the case Of the state of Min
nesota against Shaw, wherein ii is held
that q horse race is not gambling device,
and concludes as follows:
THE betting 10 on the races exclusively
and the result Is in no way determined by
the use Of the instrumeptaiities in question,
and no additional element OF chance Is in
troduced thereby. and as we have no statute
prohibiting betting. except on the games
enumerated In the statute, and as horse
racing is neither named nor included, It
must be held that there Is no statutory pro-
hibition against betting In horseracing. nor
against pool selling on such races, for pool
selling cannot be more than betting"

LOCAL OPTION PROPOSED
REGARDING POOL SELLING

BOSTON, September SC. w. Lasalle,
one of the most prominent and Influential
members Of the Gentlemen's Driving Club,
over whose track the Grand Circuit meeting
was recently conducted at Readville. has
advanced some important ideas concerning
betting on the circuit of especial interest
in view of the anti-racing agitation now go
ing on in this sec zion.
why not leave the matter Of betting to
the community in which trotting meetings
are conducted said he I'm other words,
let local option prevail, just the same as In
the traffic of liquor. 1 venture the predic-
ton that should the matter of wagering on
the trots be submitted to the community In
which race meetings are held nine-tenths of
the populace would vote for pool selling.
1.-THE difficulty of the whole thing" con-
tnued Mr.. Lasaile, SIS that We are mlsun-
derstood. There are just as many high
class sportsmen identified with the trotters
as there are with the runners. and If we
could only bring our people to believe this
we might be able to get law passed in this
state which would place US on as firm
basis as racing now is In New York.
Mr.. Lasalie's comment is thought to be
particularly appropriate inasmuch as the
