Transfer of Money.

A new form OF money order is being
prepared by the postoffice department
under the recent law passed 10y Con-
grcss, which will greatly simplify the
heretofore somewhat cumbersome
method OF transferring money from one
address to another through the malls

TO the paying Office a separate official
advice. after receipt OF which the mon
ely order is paid Under She new sys-
tenn the money order form will have
as a distinctive feature a detachable
coupon containing the necessary in
formation. which coupon must be pre-
scented to the postmaster Of tho paying
office. In the new form tho names "
the remlttcr and payee win not APP
pear on the face Of the money order
as at present. but they will appear
on the detachable coupon Because Of
the requirements Of existing agree
ments tho special advice system viii
have TO be continued in the case OF
money orders to foreign countries The
new form Is expected TO prove more ef-
fcient and convenient than the old
plan. and TO reduce the amount Of work
performed by the clerks in the money
order departments The new form
VIII be larger than the present form,
and viii be issued by the postofnce
department. as soon as the supply Of

Fragrant Betting on Races rs
Conducted L. Illegal.

Arguments in the case Of APPLICABLE
& Co. against S, NJ Barlow. cher of
police, involving the legality OF pool
rooms and betting on horse races. were
begun before Judge Morse this morning
hut Judging from the array of law
books and number of attorneys en-
pluyed on the case II Is not likely that
a decision viii be- reached today.
Judge Powers, for the plaintiffs, &C.
cupicd the time at this morning ses-
sion, arguing that though the statue
prohibits gambling in certain forms. IT
does not mention anything about poo
selling ana betting on horse races. THIS
being so, he resorts to the common law
10 show that horse racing and betting
were not prohibited and indeed I'm some
cases bets on horse races were en-
forced by the courts
He cited the Utah statute as follows;
1881 Gaming Defined. Every person
who deals. plays or carries on, opens
or causes to be opened. or who con-
ducts, either as owner or as emp.oye.
whether for hire or not, any game OF
faro. monte. roulette. lansquenet, rouge
et noir. rondo, or any game played with
cards dice or any other device, for
money. checks, credit or any other
representative value, and every person
who plays or bets at or against any
OF said prohibited games. is guilty Of "a
misdemeanor.'
Mr. Powers said that this statute had
been In effect In this state since 1876 ana
before, but that the legality OF betting
on horse races had only lately been
called into question in a proceeding
from which this injunction suit result
ed He insisted that the city has no
right to make an ordinance which goes
further than the statute allows; and
therefore sought to show that the issue
s clearly the legality OF horse betting
under the Utah statute.
city Atty. Dininny will argue to tho
effect that though bets on horse races
between individuals was not, at COM
mon law. gaming. the conducting Of an
establishment like the Turf Exchange
where the betting IL on a wholesale
plan and as business is a violation
OF law.
