Winnings.

New York, July. 19.-If YOU deposit
money with a stakeholder and win,
and lie chooses not to give you the
winnings. you have no redress under

with Saltz to be wagered on johnson
at to 10. When the fight was over
they had trouble getting the money,
and Saltz was arrested.
Counsel for Saltz made the point
before the magistrate that as betting
was Illegal according to the anfi-pri2e
fight law. the winner had no legal title
10 the winnings. and that consequently
no crime had been committed. The
court shared this view.
AS soon as the defendant was dis
charged, however, he was innTn ediate-
Iy rearrcsted for violation Of saceion
1T12 of the penal code, which provides
that acting as stakeholder is a. misde-
lneanor. NO complaint was made
against the men who had put up the
walkers, as they were to act as wit"
nesses for the prosecution.
