 Who Says Big Money Was
 Used to Pass Bill.

Albany, N. Y., July 20.-The As sembly slaughtered the Gittings Rac- ing Bill by vote of GA to 5 tonight. Governor Dix is charged with having thrown his influence against it. Tam many Boss Murphy is accused by the Jockey Club people with doing little or nothing to succor it. A number of members sought to justify their nega- tive vote by resentment of the invas- ion by Frank Farrell and other race track men of the floor and lobby.
 Tonight President R. T. Wilson and Secretary Andrew Miller, of the Saratoga Association, Farrell and others are working like trojans to re- trieve fortunes tomorrow, the final day of the session. Tammany Floor Leader Smith and Speaker Friede have promised them another trial, but none of them would wager tonight that all of the twenty-three votes ne- cessray to pass the measure already approved by the Senate will be forth coming.
 In the course of the debate on the measure Assemblyman Oliver, reply ing to Phillips, of Alleghany, who de- clared the measure to be a scheme to repeal the anti-race track gamb- ling law" declared:
 "The present law was nut through by a quarter of a million dollars bribery fund to be paid to the Agri- cultural Association"

 TO CHANGE SOON

It is stated that the Pine Bluff Tolc= phone Company, the independent phone system of this city which was recently absorbed by tue Southwest ern Telegraph and Telephone compa- ny, only had eighty-three patrons which wore using that eompany's phone exclusively. The company had several hundred other phones but the patrons used them together with the Southwestern ompany's phones. It is expected that much new business will come to the Southwestern Company by it's taking over the new phone com pany's business. William C.
