AGAINST RACETRACk GAMBLING.
Hill Introduced to Appropriate $50 900
for County Fairs.

ALBANY, March s.-Assemblyman More
land, the Republican leader of the lower
house, introduced a bill to-day which has
a very important bearing upon the Cassidy
Lansing anti-racetrack bill. The new bill
a]ppropriates $50 900 directly for the use of
agricultural associations.
The opposition to the racing bill has
seemingly narrowed down to the county
and town fair associations, which receive
the 5 per cent. tax collected on the gross
receipts of the racing associations. At a
hearing last Wednesday on the racing
bill, Anthony Comstook proposed an appro-
~priation of $500, 900 to take the place of the
tax, inasmuch az those who were promoting
the bill had no desire TO iniure the fairs {.
The sentiment has been steadily gaining
ground that the only way out of the gam
Bling question in connection with races is
for the Legislature to vote a direct appro-
priation for the fairs.
