Plans for Tomorrow.
The big race of the meet will be held
tomorrow when the free for-all will
be contested. Several of the fastest
horses i'm the meet are being groomed
for this race and good contest should
result.
The promoters state that many local
people We're so pleased with the open
ing DAYS races that they are trying
to make arrangements for matinee
Sunday afternoon. Whether or not
this will be done depends on two
things the condition of the horses
and the arrangements which are be-
ing made To hold meet i'm Marquette
next week. Should the horses seem
fit and the Marquette dates fall
through or be placed late in the week,
IT is more than probable that the
horses will be kept here an extra day
and some of the fastest of the win
ners matched for couple of extra
races.

Night In Favor of Danbury

Hartford Conn, Oct. IA verdict
for $50, 900 n costs was awarded for
the plaintiff, D. =. Loewe & Co., Of
Danbury, against members of the

ca in the United States court last night.
Under the Sherman antitrust law this

the decision, most Of the time being
spent in examining the expense account
of the plaintiffs. The verdict Is for the
full amour sought.

before the court for nine years, during
which time it has gone to the United
States court of appeals twice and once
to the United States supreme court.

Steps were begun by the defense to
appeal the case again.

240 members Of the United Hatters of
North America, residing in this state,
and was based upon the allegation
that a conspiracy existed to injure the
business of the plaintiff, who is a soft
hat manufacturer, because he de-
clined to unionize his factory.
During both trials evidence was
presented aiming to show that certain
labor unions had instituted a boy
colt against the plaintiffs business.
soon after the suit was brought thu

of Labor; John Mitchell, Frank Nor
rison n other labor leaders were
