W|RE.TAPPERS HIT
B00kMAKERS HARD
Denver and Salt Lake City Men
Out 100000 as Result of
Clever SwindIe.

DENVER, COLO. Nov. DOZEN
YER and Salt Lake City bookmakers
yesterday lost 100000 on horse races
at the Latcnia track near Cincinnati
through a cleverly executed tapping
of telegraph wires near the Latonia
race track The odds on Howard
Pearson. the winner Of the sixth race
yesterday at that track was boosted
from I to / to 90 to l, and even as
high as 40 to /.
Bockmakers reluctantly admitted
tonight that they lost heavily on the
race and many of the Denver book
makers today refused to ray bets on
the race. Two of them, it is said,
were forced cut of business.
According to a local bookmaker, the
odds apparently were changed before
post time and the boost from Z TO
] to 90 to ! did not cause suspicion
When the wire was tapped the post
odds we're held back and the false
odds were sent out. Then the plunge
was made. II is said that the opera
tions extended to Chicago also.

international Money Position
Holds Market Down.
LONDON GIVES SOME HOPE
Prospect Of Unchanged Discount Rate

Early Declining Tendency OF Prices

NEW YORK. Nov. lO.-The securi'
ties market today remained under me
restraint OF the international money
position as was shown by the apathy
of the dealings and the sluggishness
of the price movement. The cheek
which was administered to the early
declining tendency OF prices and 'he
later recovery was due to a hope
that the Bank CT England authorities
would leave the present official dis
count rate unchanged at their suggee-
ton tomorrow. The process Of re-
cuperation of the banks position.
which was quite marked yesterday,
fcstered the hope. although today's
movement showed some exhaustion
of the forces making for that resup-
Grafton.
The iall loan rate in New York

5i5 ger cent maximum rate and the
sterling exchange rate ran eff In re-
Spouse. although 1t steadied again
later in the day The call loan rate
of the latter part of the day exceed
ed the maximum Of yesterday. The
cautious temper of the speculation is
directly due to this influence. In the
dullness which results, consideration
IS diverted TO some of the more dis
tant problems Offering for solution.
