lasting several months, the close OF which was
marked by a bitter fight, the so-calleo Locke
anti-racing bill was passed by the Louisiana
State Senate this afternoon by vote of Il to ~
The bill passed the House several weeks ago
and now requires only the signature of the
Governor to become law. There appears no
doubt that the Governor will sign the bill i'm
mediately.

the necessary strength Senator Smart was
found to be suffering from some form of poison

himself in favor of the bill, did not show up.
Several physicians were put to work on the
ailing member and two New Orleans reporters
were sent scurrying in high-p power automobile
through the Louisiana marshes ninety-mile
trip after the one who absent. Both of
these Senators were finally got /cn the floor.
and, added to the nineteen already present, made
the twenty-one votes necessary TO carry the BILL
A minute or SO previous TO final passage of
the bill q lively and somewhat bitter debate
WA INDUCED in by members of the body. Sen

used knockout drops TO keep Senators away
from their sworn duty, and charges and coun-
ter-charges followed.
The passage Of the bill was greeted with a
storm Of applause. The bill prohibits book
making, pari-mutuel machines gambling in
any form on races.

presence of Senator Smart to-day recalled Wv

Though weak of voice, his AYE penetrated the
chamber and greeted with wild cheering.
He said there was no foundation to the report
that he had been poisoned, but that he was
subject to such attacks

DR.. Darlington and W. K. Horton, general man.

Wagstaff's eloquence prevail there will be no dog
