RACE TRACK ADVOCATES
WIN IN VIRGINIA COURT
Indicted Parties Obtain ver-
dict, From Which There
Is No Appeal.

NORFOLK. Va. April 15.-Horse rae
ing In Virginia won a big victory tonight
when Justice J. s. Carmine dismissed all
twelve of the indictments recently re-
turned by the Norfolk county grand fury
for a further and final test Of alleged
violations of the Virginia anti-betting
statutes on the jamestown Jockey Clubs
tracks here.
Indicted Parties.
The indictments included two against
the racing association, represented b.
James L. Prince as president; two
against Bob Levy, as lessee of the
track, and one each against eight lay
ers. The indictments, being for mis-
demeanors. had TO be certified by the
county judge or a magistrate in the
jurisdiction in which the race track Is
located for original trial and hearing
today was before Justice Carmine, sit
ting in the county courthouse at
Portsmouth. Intense interest conferred
in the outcome, and there was a great
crowd in attendance, including a num-
Der of prominent persons interested
both ways in the outcome.
The case was hard fought through
mony in rebuttal TO that of the COM
monwealth, resting its case entirely
upon the evidence of the state, which
was alleged to be insufficient.
States Case Presented.
The testimony of the state was to
show that there was a particular place
on the race track where the layers
operated: that one had admitted to the
governors detective that It cost the
layers a total of $3.50 per day to main
tain themselves on the track. and out
of this $40 went to the racing as
ISOLATION for the privilege.
The governors detective said he saw
many as fourteen and possibly fifteen
books under the grandstand at the race
track on one day. There was no evil
dence, however, to show actual violations
of tie statute as construed by Magistrate
CarnVne, and the cases were dismissed.
though over the strong protest of Com
monWealths Attorney Marshall
The state is without appeal, and there
can be no further molestation OF the
present meeting, which runs through
April %. Reformers who brought about
the prosecution just ended will probably
be heard from again when the Virginia
legislature meet in January. 1912.

oility of experimenting our legislative
machinery In these matters by entirely
new methods OF Investigation. Such a
board is not expected to have theories re-
garding the principles on which tar16s
should be framed, Tor to express personal
opinions. 1t Is supposed to secure the
facts regarding relative prices, costs OF
production. wages, hours OF labor. en-
cheney Of labor and various other factors
at home and abroad, and to report these
whenever such Investigations might be
completed in such manner as to cover
the ground thoroughly and with fairness
to all parties.
Furthermore, this information was to
be secured not, as formerly, by taking
the testimony of prejudiced parties OF
divergen; interests, but by Independent
Investigations on the part of the board
and its agents at the different Industrial
and commercial centers.
Question Need Of Investigations.
The question as to the deslrability Of
such thorough Investigations is one which
has been the subject of much debate and
much difference of opinion The argu-
rnent for it has been that 1t is impossi-
Bile to deal satisfactorily with the COM
plexity of tariff rates and their far
reaching effects on the producer and con-
sumner within the few months OF An Or
binary tariff session: that genuine I'M

cured only by utilizing the results OF
thorough. dispassionate and non-partisan
inquiry in the hands Of men devotns
their whole energies to such inquiry. I'M
trammeled by the pressure of local or
party interests. The argument against
il has been either that such inforna-
ton is unnecessary or that 1t cannot be
secured within a reasonable limit OF time
I'm coming to a decision on the matter
II must be kept IN mind that 1t would
be entirely inconsistent to expect or any
such body that II should adopt the new
standard of thOrouShneSS demanded or
It. and yet be prepared to make complete
and carefully matured report on any
sub ject at a moments notice. Such in
vestigatons are arduous and involve the
collection Of q vast amount OF data from
many parts of the world, and when these
data are received they require careful
tabulation and analysis before they can
be digested properly for report which
the public can understand. If you be-
Heve at all In the principle OF such in
vestigations you must recognize the Inn
propriety Of asking such body to pub
lish at any given moment material which
is partial and incomplete and might
hence prove actually misleading. To do
this would be both unfair to ali Inter-
ests concerned and would be in violation
OF the very purpose for which such
board is constituted.
"On the other hand, a tariff board
should confine itself within the field or
the practical and realize that with due
diligence promptneSS may be combined
with accuracy. Furthermore. as such work
progresses it may be pushed with In
creasing rapidity as the machinery Of in
vestigation, which had to be created anew
for the first inquiries, is available and IN
Improved working order for each new
task"

Federals Will Be Warned.

Capt Gaujot. commanding the United
States cavalry here. held a consultation
today with Balassaria Garcia. command
er-in-chief Of the rebel forces in Aqua

when the federals came within Observ
able distance Of Aqua Prieta he desired
to be Informed at once.

the federal advance" Capt Gaujot said,

to the rebel sodiers-that no fighting

States flag which will be the signal Of
my mission"
Capt. Gaujot further requested Gen.
Garcia to command his soldiers not to
fire on his flag. Garcia said the rebels
would not fire on the flag, but there
would be great danger from the Yaqui
Indians accompanying the federal troops.
'1n La Colorado" Garcia said, 'the
Yaquis came to us before the battle and
professed to have deserted the federals
and asked to join our army. They took
UP a position with US, and when the bat
tie opened Immediately turned their guns
against our men, killing many"
Garcia said he would leave a garrison

him and Aqua Prieta, would open the

The news dispatches of yesterday

500 lives up to that time from heat,

WHAT CELINA CHAUTAU-
QUA OFFERS

1t is earnestly hoped by the manager
of the Celina Chatauqsa that the sum
mer session of Metropolitan College of
Music may prove to be financial
success. This school has for many
years held its summer session at Win
ona assembly, and it was only when
Winona developed an institute for both
winter and summer that the college
withdrew.
There is now an opportunity to build
a similar institution in Celina. Those
who wish any instruction in music,
either vocal, instrumental, theory or
practice of public school music, should
certainly take advantage of this oppor-
tunity. Mr.. Hasty will reach the
Celina Chautauqua the second day of
tho assembly and will be prepared to
meet students at any time. Arrange
ments can be made of course by letter,
by addressing Metropolitan College of
Music, Cincinnati, Ohio, direct.
