GOVERNOR HUGHES wins DEci-
SINE VICTORY I'm NEW YORK.
SICK MAN DOES WORK.
Vote Of Senator Otto Foslker, Who
crawIed From His Bed and Made 60
Mile Ride Deals Death Blow to Race
Track Gambling.

1AiUaAys 4N.s La, JunS 44.---1Alt0T II q
great struggle the famous Agnew-Hart
anti-racetrack gambling bills are laws
Of the state Of New York. Governor
Hughes, by his signature affixed to
each Of the bills at 4.35 p. m. today,
crowLed a legislative victory the bril-.
iancy of which equalled only by its
unexpect edness-is conceded even by
the ;nen who fought him in the mat
ter to the last dllch and beyond. a
few n1!i.utes before 2 o'clock the ex-
traordtnery session Of the legislature
Of 1908 adjourned sine die.
The decisive votes which passed the
bills were cast by Senator Otto O
'Foelker Of the fol- rth senatorial dis
trict Of Brooklyn. who crawled from q
sick bed and made 60 mile ride to
do it, SO weak and distressed in mind
and body that he seemed on the verge
OF utter collapse, and by new sena-
tor, William G. Wallace Of Niagara
Falls who was elected ut q special
election in the campaign preceding
which the governor himself toured
the district speaking in behalf Of his
election.
Only Constitutional Majority.
There was no surprise IN the vote
Of Senator Wallace, who from the out
set had been definitely pledged to the
support Of the governors recon-
mendation in this matter. Every other
senator. including Foelker, voted as
he did, pro or contra, when the bills
were before the regular session in
April, and they passed by the precise
constitutional vote Of 26 to 25-not
one vote too many or too few.
The bills, which now constitute
chapter SOC and 5O7 Of the laws Of
1908, in no way affect, 50 far as their
face provisions go, the state racing
commissions In particular or horse
racing in general. They relate solely
to the penalties for gambling, pool
selling and bookmaking, which were
before declared by the law to be q
public nuisance"
Chapter 506 amends the racing law
by repeating that provision under
which an exclusive penalty Of simply
recovery Of the amount wagered,
which was applied to gambling from
penalties operative elsewhere In the
state, and it is also provided that this
general penalty shall be "imprison.
ment in the county jail OF. peniten-
tiary for a period Of not more than
one year." without alternative Of fines.
Limit 81 Endurance.
Chapter 5O7 amends the penal code
in like manner and il addition
changes the charge Of gambling from
that Of . felony to that Of q misde.
meanor. thus bringing the onense
within the Jurisdiction Of the minor
criminal courts.
Francis N. Murphy Of staatsburg,
Senator Foelker's physician, confirmed
the impression Of all observers that
the senator could hardly have endured
another; moment Of the excitement
when his vote was cast. He express.
ed the belief that the senator had not
been permanently injured BY his ex.
perience.

intention of the president as TO possible

He said, however. that there is an I'M
written code of courtesy between federal
and state prosecuting officers and he saw
no reason why United States District AT

lay before District Attorney jerome of
that city the facts in the case for Mr..

LIVELY DEBATES IN HOUSE
Under Call of Committees Several
Measures of Special Interest
We're Called Up.

Washington. Dec. 12--The house of rep
resentatiVes today was in its old time
form. No particular program had been
mapped out, but under call of commit
tees several measures in which the mem
bers were especially interested. and in
some cases vitality concerned, were con-
sidered. With few exceptions they en-
gendered the liveliest sort of debate and
it was disclosed that the forces for or
against them were fully lined up for the
fray
Parliamentary tactics were freely re-
sorted 10 with the result that five times
the roll was called
The first wrangle occurred on a reso-
luton fixing the boundary line between
the states Of Colorado. Oklahoma and
New Mexico. which were adopted by a
good majority, but not without two roll
calls The house then by decisive vote
refused to further consider the bill pro-
viding for arbitrary settlement of dis
putes between employers and employees
Next turning attention to the bill pro-
viding for the protection of aliens in the
United States the subject was threshed out
at length The measure had rough sail
ing and 1t was passed by thin majority
after the roll had been called twice.
At 5;2T p. m. the house adjourned until
