to force through is expected to be
revealed by the legislative committee
that is now investigating graft
charges, and by the grand jury Of New
York county.
For two years the State has been
full of rumors regarding the dis
tribution Of the fund raised by the
racing interests, and which has been
yariously estimated at from 100000
to half a million. Circumstantial
allegation that a prominent politician,
now dead, was given this money and
stories of how it was distributed have
been current.
To-day District Attorney Whitman,
said that he believed the entire story
will soon become public.
Whitman started for Scranton, Pa,

Moss. presented to the grand jury

would either vote against the anti
betting bill, or keep away from the
Senate chamber when the bill came
up for final passage. Foelker was AT
that time a State Senator, and he was
carried into the chamber, on a
stretcher to cast the vote that made
the bills laws.
Gardner denies that he ever offered
Foelkner bribe and is fighting

CHOSEN PRESIDENT

was permanently organized last night
in the Wilmington Country Club. A

a committee of fifteen was appoint
ed to pass upon applications for mem
bership.
There was a long discussion over
the advisability of procuring a club
house and fit it out with all con-
veniences. In order to do this II
was decided that the initiation fee
would have to be $40 and the dues
a like amount per year.
Some of the members we're opposed
to making the dues so large and ad-
vised that the club go slowly in its
quest for a clubhouse until such time
as it is financially able to carry out
the project. Among those who ad-
vocated this was Major William d

the members on the proposition and
letters will be sent out to this effect
within a few days. Another meeting
