BUTLER ASKS NO DAMAGES.
His Only Desire IL to Regain Pos
sessiOn Of Empire City Track.

"ession OF Empife City Track.
WHITE PLAINS. N. r.. Nov. 2s.-rhs
Empire City Racing Association, OF which
James Butler Is the head. won several
important points to-day IN its suit to
eject the National Fair and Exposition
Association from the track between
fonkers and Mount Vernon when Jus
tice M~orschauser ruled out considerable
OF the evidence offered by the defence.
John F. Brennan OF Yonkers. who ap-
peared for the plaintiffs. told the court
that the Empire Association sought no
damages against the National Associa-
ton directors and that this part Of the
complaint was withdrawn. He con-
tended that the National Association
didn't hold a air for thirty days zach
year. as the lease provided. and that In
addition TO this the herding Of $4,000
war horses on the track also violated
the covenants.
Al the opening Of the National Asso-
cations defence to-day lee Davis Of
counse suggested tina the jury visit the
Empire racetrack and see for themselves
whether the war horses had damaged the
big racing course. Mr.. Brennan OBJ
jected. and Justice Morschauser said he
saw no reason for doing this.
Then Mr.. Davis wanted to amend the
pleadings to show mat the Empire Assoc
citation had wilfuliy hindered the Ma
tional directors from holding a big
Greater New York fair. This motion
also was denied. II was also commended
that the zoo and mouth disease quar-
antine In Westchester county in 1914
prevented tho fair management from
having cattle on exhibition.

TAT TLAUDS PRESENT
SECRET SERVICE MEN
Mckinley Probably Would Have
Been Saved Had System
Been In Existence, He Says.

NEW YORK. Oct. N.-Speaking Of
Secret Service guards for the Presi-
dent. former President Taft said in his
second lecture at Columbia University.
that the assassination Of President Nc
Kinely would probably have been pre-
vented II the present system had then
Been in force.
Assassination of three Presidents
led Congress to make provision for
Secret Service guards" Mr.. Taft said.
~While President I was never conscious
Of any personal anxiety in large crowds,
yet Congress would have been quite
ord.
Those guards are great burden
to the President. He can never go
anywhere that he does not have to
inflict their presence upon those he
for him to avoid the feeling after
awhile that be Is under surveillance
rather than under protection.
The Secret Service men are level
headed. experienced and OF good man
DDS. II a person Is determined to kill
President and is willing to give up
his life for 1t. no such protection will
save saw, him. but desperate persons OF this
Is from those who have lost part or all
of their reason.
Under the practice now pursued in
In his pocket would not be permitted
to approach within striking or shooting
distance OF the President. His holding
a revolver under his handkerchief In
his pocket would be detected long be-
fore he could Set within reach of the
object of his perverted purpose. He
would find the hand OF the Secret Ser
vice man thrust into the pocket to find
what his own wan doing there. Had
this been done In the case Of the as
sassin of President Mckinley at Buffalo,
that tragedy would not have oc-
Cured"
Mr.. Taft recommended in the lecture
that members of the Cabinet be given
access to the floor Of each House in
Congress. to introduce measures. advo-
cato their passage, answer questions
and enter into debate. without the right
to vote.
