THE TALK OF THE DAY.

C.AnersI Ringharl's reference TO the professional
Reds as towards recalls the experience of a
Tribune reporter who went TO d 4th street saloon
on the day following Johann Mosts 1rst appear
ance In Cooper Union. Something about the young
mans appearance which was probably not in har-
rnony with the surroundings, attracted attention,
and a bury, full bearded man approached and
asked him bluntly: Are you reporter? The
affirmative reply drew forth torrent of abuse
which eliminated in the command: "Hinausi"
barroor1 full of excited. half drunken anarchists
against slender young man was an unequal
arrangement and the "hinaus' command was
about TO be obeyed when q little woman with a
child in her arms rushed IN and made a straight
line toward the bully He was her husband. She
called him vile names. upbraded him. and then
ordered him Go home quick" He resisted
for a moment and then humbly followed the little
woman while some Of his friends shouted 'Hnaus,"
Everybody laughed, the atmosphere in the an
arcList centre changed and the reporter re-
mained and got his story.
Patience-I hear VIII is going to marry that
girl he's been spending so much money on.

THE AKTLG4MBLIKG BILLS.

The passage of the anti-gambling bills no"
seems assured. Wednesdays vote on the
amendment leaving the racing situation as II
is until September / was close, but the oppo-
nents of the Governor were stronger upon
that proposition than they will he upon tne
main question. and when the unamended Dills
come UP for passage there is every reason to
expect that they VIII go through with a safe
majority. Their strength with the public was
clearly shown by the failure OF the amend
npnt Doubtless several Of the Senator'S
thought that it was fair and would have sup
ported it had they not feared that they would
have difficulty in convincing their constituents
that there was no trick in the amendment
Some doleful predictions are offered about
the death knell Of racing. but there is reason 10
believe that racing has enough good qualities
as a sport to preserve it without the AID or the
betting ring. 1t is an expensive sport, but
other expensive sports. notably yachting, are
maintained without laying gamblers under IN
direct contribution. II may prove difficult TO
hold such long seasons of racing in the met
ropolitan district under the new law as have
been customariIy held in the past, but a cur
taiIment would be no great loss from the point
of view of sport. There will be less quantity
but more quality With shorter season It is
reasonab bic to expect that a higher grade Of
horses will be run and the sport will be more
in the hands of true SpOrtSmen and less IN the
hands Of men who make q business Of racing.
This will in itself be a genuine gain. The bet
ting ring will have 10 60. but to be frank
about it. this does not mean that there viii be
no betting az the tracks. There is no ring at
football games or at yacht races. yet there =
plenty of betting. How much Of this there
will be and how open and professional it will
he will depend upon practical experience OF
how easy or difficult The new law is 10 enforce.
Restrictive legislation has never yet accom-
plished it's literal objects But however the new
law turns out in enforcement. the state will no
longer have to blush TO think that II is trifing
with it's own constitution.

had experience with Venezuelan courts during
the reign OF Mr.. Castro is likely TO consider it
worth while 10 have recourse 10 them. Let a
single instance, reported by Mr.. Calhoun, the
United States Commissioner testify TO the
judicial procedure at Caracas. "sequestra-

company doing business in Venezuela. The
petition in the suit was filed on Wednesday.
ON Thursday, the next day, the order granting
sequestration Of the companys property and

morning Of Friday. the third day Of the proceed

10 seize the property. And then, a few hours
later. on Friday afternoon when the case was
closed and the receiver we'll on his way, the
local managing director Of the company. who
all the time had been right there in Caracas, as
all concerned IN the proceedings well knew,
for the first time served with notice of
what was being or rather what lad been. done.
The writ Of sequesuation thus secretly issued
authorized the seizure of the property leased"
and the holding of il pending the determine
lion Of the controversy. But the Venezuelan
government let no pent-up Utica contract its
powers. II seized not only the property
leased" but also everything else belonging to
the company upon which its receiver could lay

entirely outside the subject matter Of the dis
puted lease over which the suit occurred. Nor
was that ali. Instead OF holding" the prom
