PIPE DREAM FROM
FATHER BILL" DAILY

A special to the New York World from
Waterbury, Conn.,, says that New York
horsemen contributed $4,000 to the cam
paign fund Of Gov. Hughes in the belief
that he favored racing. and that they
were afterward thrown down. by the
executive is the claim Of Father" Bill
Daily, who Is now at his farm in Hebron
with what remains of his historic selling
platter stable.
1.-THE tip went out two years ago that
Hughes was all right in horse racing
and that Hearst wasn't" says Father
Bill. Hearst was hammering the game
in his papers and he looked wrong.
Hughes looked right. There are men in
New York-good. honest men, too-who
say he told them himself that he was
right. Anyway We were suckers enough
to believe 1t. and We put up a stake of
$4,000 by way of helping Hearst get
knocked out of business. That's wnat
we did for Hughes, and he was glad to
have us. Look at what he's done to US
now"
Father Bill declined to say who col
lected the pool or give the names of
those who contributed.
There's two or three fellows in the
Metropole who know more about it than
do" he said. Il didn't know any
better than to chip in. Say. don't you
think governor ought to try to do all
the good he can do instead Of trying to
do a whole lot of harm? This fellow in
New York just plays a continuous game
of duck ON the rock, and we're the duck
Father" Bill has sent some of his
horses to California. Others will be
shipped to Cuba this week.
i've got fewer horses now than I've
had in thirty-five years. just on account
of that fool BILL" he said. And he said
it with a. smile. But five big judges,
yes. sir. five big judges, have decided
that to bet was no crime-no crime, you
understand. and just as soon as few
more of them get little backbone there
will be racing In New York, and don't
you think there won't.
THE stock farms have suffered by
the new law. Horses that would bring
$500 or $1,000 are finding no buyers
and they are having trouble to get rid
of them for $40 or 500. Is that doing
any good for a state?
Il don't see it.''

BOXING BRIEFS.

All details for the ten-round bout be-
tween Abe Attell, the featherweight
champion, and Ad Wolgast. the Milwau-
kee fighter. have been finally clinched.
They were matched last night by Fight
Promoter McCarey to battle at the Pacinc
A. G. of Los Angeles, Cal, on Friday
night. Both lads are training hard for
the contest. Attell ought to have no
trouble in outpointing Wolgast, as he is
too fast and clever for him.
There is talk now in California that
Stanley Ketchel, the middleweight cham
pion, intends to part with his manager,
Joe O'Connor. Ketchel and OConnor
have had several arguments during the
last few months. and it Is said that the
way of doing business. If there should
be a break between them the chances
are that Jim Coffroth might handle
Ketchel's affairs In the future.
Hugo Kelly. the Italian middleweight of
Chicago. will be heavily backed to beat
Billy Papke when they meet at the
Jeffries A. c. of Los Angeles, Cal, on
December 10. Kelly has been boxing
before large audiences every day since
his cleverness and footwork are SO good
that number of the big sporting men
intend to bet a chunk of money on his
chances. Papke will enter the ring
favorife at 10 to 8.

of Chicago, will probably be selected
to referee the twenty-rOund battle be-
tween Packey Mcfarland and Young
Erne." the Quaker city pugilist which
takes place at New Orleans on the night
OF December 25. Harry Gilmore. mana
