Billings Sees
Bright Future
For the Turf
Noted Horse Owner Believes
Game VIII Be Restored TO
Favor i'm Few Years

c. K. G. Billings. Chicago capitalist
and probably the most famous turfman
in this country since the death OF Will
liam c. Whitney. arrived here Saturday
and engaged suite in the Fairmont
overlooking the city. whose rebuilding.
he says, far exceeds his expectations.
1t was Billings who took Lou Dillon
from Sonoma county to break the
worlds trotting record behind a wind
shield and to win honors in Europe in
races witnessed by crowned heads.
He has only lately bought Uhlan at
a cost of sS5. 900. But Billings has not
come here to crafty his hobby for
horsefesh. Having come as far. west
as Duluth as business trip he had his
private car sent west to Seattle by way
of recreation and rest and is now on
his way east. The Alaska Yukon fair
was of more than passing interest to
him. for his name was prominent
among the directors OF the Columbian
Billings takes a hopeful view OF the
future of horse racing, which enters
for honors and never for money
''This country" Billings said yester-
day, lis going through much the same
trouble in regard TO racing as Eng
land has experienced. The betting side
was carried 10 an extreme ana Cne pup
lie turned The stringent laws passed
in New York have been enforced in the
very heart OF the horse raising dis
tricts, in Kentucky and Tennessee. IL
is much the same as the temperance
movement. But the people will find
themselves in time and the game will
be re-established on a better basis.
People bet on horses they knew only
by the saddle number. and that is a
bad thing. Love of the horse is too
persistent to end legitimate racing"
Speaking OF conditions in San Fran
cisco he said:
Il had no conception of the work
done here since the fire. and I don't
think the east generally understands
what you have done. IT is we'll worth
the trip to see what you have done"
