Sherfn's Men Before the Grand Jury-No
Colluslon, Says Mr.. Hobley.
The Grand Jury In Brooklyn was engaged
yesterday In the investigation OF racetraok
gambling matters, special attention being
given to the recent arrest Of Charles A.
Hart and Joseph Noonan by Deputy sheriffs
George A. Owens and Charles D. Kendi for
making bet Of four dinners on a race.
Owens and Kendi we're summoned before
the Grand Jury by Assistant District At
torney Elder to explain why they had made
the apparently ridiculous arrest. Sheriff
Hobley. who had not been called before
the Grand Jury, said that there was abso-
lutely no colusion or Encouragement with
his office relative to the arrest and declared
that his men were working in harmony
with the District Attorneys Office.
Undoubtedly there is gambling and
bookmaking at the tracks," he said. 4but
the thing Is to get hold Of it and secure
evidence that will hold. We all know
there is gambling going on. but we cannot
get grip on it. II they want lne before
the Grand Jury they cannot call me too
soon to suit me. AS Sheriff am doing
my level best to carry out the law as laid
out In the instructions from the Governor
under the advice Of the District Attorney"
Mr.. Elder said:
1T seems strange that public officials
who are down there at the tracks to enforce
the law cannot find the real gamblers and
the real gambling when there Is 30 much
Of 1t going on. This office found the evil
denco when it sent its men down there
The gamb ling at the tracks can be stopped
II the people who ought to stop 1t want
to stop it.
The managers and owners Of the tracks
are also responsible for violations of the
law on their tracks. They can stop gam
bling on their tracks II they want to. They
can exclude the gamblers and put stop
TO every species Of gambling at the tracks
In five minutes if they want to, The very
question that the Grand Jury Is trying to
get at is why the gambling is not stopped
by those who have the power to stop it.
The Grand Jury propo ses to have this ques-
ton determined"
Mr.. Elder has subpnnaed about forty
witnesses. The inquiry will be continued
to-day and tomorrow.
