BOOkieS Will
Test New Law.

New York June 12.-Between $4,000
and 10000 persons, a bumper throng
for a Friday, journeyed down to the
Gravesend track today to see the
horses run and, if possible, to make
a wager on their favcrites.
Six races We're run according to the
schedule. There was betting, too, on
every race, despite the fact that the
new Agnew-Hart organizing law
was in force and that John Cavanaugl,
the master of the betting ring. an
nounced that no speculation should be
INDUCED in. Nine persons We're taken
into custody by the police authorities.
The prisoners We're charged with vio-
lating the new gambling law and
each man was held in $500 bail for a
hearing tomorrow.
Orlando Jones, one of the leading
members OF the Metropolitan Turf AS
ISOLATION, the big Bookmakers Club,
was the most prominent of the book
makers arrested. A rumor to the eff
feet that Jones would invite arrest in
orler to test the cOnstitutonality of
the new law was circulated early, and
when he was led from the betting ring
and taken to the Coney Island police
station, no denial of a pre-arranged
plan was forthcoming. Something
akin to a riot occurred when the first
arrest, that of Richard Weldon, a
bockmaker, was made just as the
horses We're going to the post for the
first race
Each succeeding arrest was followed
by wild scramble of the crowds to
get near the chief actors in the scene,
but nothing more violent than the
hurting of a few vile epithets was in
dulged in. Allan Pinkerton, the head
OF the detective force at the track,
rushed hither and thither as the
crowds sWarmed around the policemen
and their victim, shouting go back
boys, go back. Help the sport along by
having no disturbance. Be orderly bows
and everything will come right"
IN the betting ring the bookmakers
hesitated to begin business but douht
as to what would be permitted was
early dispelled by John Cavanaugh. the
master of the ring, who warned the
layers that neither the Jockey Club nor
the Brooklyn Jockey Club would sane
ton any infringement of the law.
IF you want to bet individuality"
you DO so at your own risk"
What betting there was was not gen
eral in character but took place be-
tween persons well known to each
other. The individual unknown to the
bookmakers had no chance to back his
morse. After the fourth race a police
man stood on either side of Sol LIGHT

Der OF interested parties to Baltimore
on Tuesday. There are said 40 have
been between rs and 100 in the delega-
ton The question at issue resolved
itself into whether the proposed route,
after leaving Calvert, should proceed
by way OF Zion and Nowland's Corner
10 Elkton, or by way OF Fair Hill to
Elkton. 4 petition with the SIGNATURES
OF over 900 taxpayers was presented
for the adoption OF the former route
and arguments were made IN It's be-
half by William T. Warburton, Esq,
County Commissioners Charles A. Ben
iamn and Charles W. Shippers. This
route seemed to have the weight OF
argument with il, but the Fair Hill
route evidently had the pull" mas
much as il takes its course through ~
Fourth district. the Gibraltar OF De-
mocracy.'
Chairman Tucker, OF the Commission
and Governor Crothcrs both argued
for the Fair Hill route, contending
that the other road would lead through
too poor a section OF the county. while
the one proposed would run through
the manufacturing section where good
roads would do most good The Gov
cruor also dwclt strongly upon the fact
that in the next eight years the county
would spend oi Itself 100000 on late
raj roads to the State Highway de

listeners as counting chickens before
