ILLINOIS LEGISLATOR INTRO
DUCES PLACING STRINGENT
REGULATIONS ON HOLDING
OF HORSE RACES.

Springfield, ILL.,, March 2.-Repre-
sentative Thomas Tippitt of Olncy
today introduced bill in the house
which if enacted into law would not
only bar book-making on horse races
but would punish all book-making and
poolselling or any trial of skill or
endurance of man or beast.
The proposed law makes it q peni-
tentiary offense for any person to
register bets or keep pool on horse
races. An interesting point in con
nection with the introduction of this
bill is the fact that Lippitt himself Is
an enthusiast in horse racing. He
says his experience in racing horses
had shown him the evil results of
bookmaking and has convinced him
that In the interest of pure sport and
the future of harness horse racing,
the measure is necessary.

Nashville, Tenn, March 2.-The d.

which might develop.
A moment later Attorney General

HAeoLED OVER TERMS.

Nashville, Tenn, March 1.-The
spectacle of counsel on one side rot
only selling witness to the opposi
tlon but hagling over the terms, was
one of the elevating and extraordinary
incidents yesterday In the trial Ok
Col ID. b. and Robin Cooper and John
Sharp for the staying of United States
Senator Il W Carmaek. The subject
of the commercial transaction was
nr. McPheetms GLASGOW, who had
go to Columbia and perform an autop
sy OF Senator Carmack's body. He
did SO, and reported hts ffHTfngs to
the prosecutors. He was subpoenaed
by the state, but was not used. The
defense learned Of the autopsy, and
summoned the doctor Now, DR. Glas-
COW is very ethical man. He told
counsel for the defense that his SER
vices as an expert had be N retained
| by the state, and that he would not
discuss the case, except with the at
| torneygcneral. The defense asked
the court this morning TO instruct the
doctor to talk to his counsel, The
court complied partially by telling the
odctor that it would be proper for him
20 talk with the defendants attor-
lneys. If he had any information that
would throw light on the killing. The
state objected, and the doctor stood
firm Unless the state. which EN-
ployed him. ordered him TO consult
with he opposition, he declined 10
talk.
The state suggested that the defense
swear the doctor and put him on the
stand. The defense resented the sug-
gestlon and declared II would put no
witness on the stand without knowing
TO what he would testify. Then the
states counsel consulted. and Attor-
ney-Gnneral McCarn made this as
founding proposition:
That If the defense would pay the
state the cost OF the autopsy including
Dr. Glascow's fee. the state would
waive its rights.
As Judge Hart said. in disgust. the
fense wanted to see the goods before
they bought, and. II they decided to
use him as a witness. TO reimburse
The state
To this counter proposition the
prosecutors entered an emphatic veto.
Pay whether YOU use him or not =
they said and the courts comment
p they want to sell the goods in a
bag"
There was another hurried confer
ence and the defense bought the
goods In a bgg and DR. Glasgow be-
came their witness.
The significance Of his testimony
was that any one Of the three wounds
was necessarily fatal and that if the
senator lid not fire the first shots h
could not have fired at all
