recommendation Made by Alder.
manic Committee.

Chicago, May 7.--Appointment of q
city wage commission to conduct an
inquiry into wages paid girls and wo
men In Chicago was recommended
In preliminary report OF a special
vice commission to the city council
appointed last October to study the
ramifications of the social evil.
The report holds that employers oil
underpaid women are to some extent
morally responsible for their down.
fall. but recommends that the whole
question OF low wages and its rela-
tion to prostitution be made the sub.
ject of special inquiry.
The aldermanic body advised the
immediate wiping out of the segre-
gated districts. All disorderly hous-
es, the committee held. should be sub
ject to constant repression with q
view to total annihilation.

Three Tracks in Empire State
Sure to Open for the Ponies
During This Season.
TO NAME RACE COMMISSION
Pari-MutueI System of Betting
May Be Adopted After Long
Educational Campaign.

NEW YORK. Feb. ,S.-There will
be thoroughbred racing at the New
York tracks during. the coming year.
Three at least and probably fou-
tracks, will be reopened. They will be
run on the subscription basis, the stock
holders. breeders. and horsemen inter-
ested in the reriving of the game con-
tributing to the purses and the running
expenses. IN tits manner il will be
possible TO try out the Noral plan of bet
ting which has apparently been Legal
iEed by the recent decision of the
courts. .....
The tracks at which racing are GER
tain are Belmont Park, the nnest race
course in America; Saratoga and Aque-
duct The other track where the ques-
tion is still in doubt is the Empire City,
near Yonkers. which is owned by Jim
Butler.
Governor Sulzer is expected to an
nounce the appointment of a new State
racing commission next week. RumCr
today had il that the new commission
would be made up of Charles kohler,
of this city, millionaire piano manufac-
turer and owner of one of the biggest
stables in France, including Novelty
and Fitzherbert; Montagu Gerrins,
leading hotel man of Buffalo, and Will
liam +. Lewis, newspaper man OF
this city
II is expected that while the game
is being tried out this season the per-
sons interested in racing will endeavor
TO work up sentiment in favor of the
pari-mutual system of betting which il
g agreed would solve the entire racing
problem.

The Mackmen. with the veteran pitche
ers running along smoothly, should be
ahle to win at least ninety games this
year and that's enough to cop the gon-
falon. The players missed that melon
from the worlds series last October
and will fight like mastiffs to retrieve
their laurels.
Even with the Red Sox and Climbers
finishing ahead Of the Mackmen, most
folks said last year that the Philadel-
pfia club was the best In the league.
This year the best club should win, for
II is most unlikely that their luck will
continue as bad as it was in 1912 or
that the Red SoX and Climbers Will
swing along with as much good luck.
