Gittins Bill Relieving Directors

The horse racing game Is dead in New
York for this year at least. There will
be no racing bills passed by the Legis-
laturc. and nothing bordering on the
resumption Of the sport will be put up to
Gov. Dix. There will be no relieving OF
the owners and directors OF race tracks
Of the liability for betting violatlons;
there will be M bookmaking with or
without writing considered: In short.
the SPORT OF kings" Is as far as ever
from a healthy revival and will be as
long as those behind II are unwilling to
open their tracks and race under the
provisions OF the laws now on the statute
books.

The engine was stopped and the big
