Question Raised as to Validity of
Wager Between Winn and Fuller
Has Arisen Because Monry and Bill
of Sale Were Not in Envelope De
posited at Coney Island Saloon.
Charging that Wood Allen, a fol-
low'd of the races, switched envelopes
on him, substituting an envelope
which contained only a few pieces of
scrap newspaper for one that, con-
tained $200 in money and a bill of sale
for Brown Dick, a running horse, G.
11 Winn, proprietor of the Orient
rooming house, 109 1-2 South Stanton,
yesterday swore out a warrant for
Alien's arrest, before Justice 13. A.
Howard.
Allen is missing a:: i cannot lie
found. The Hick is said to have been
played Wednesday when Winn, owner
of T.nde Hi ear f, a running horse,
pout'd $200 in money as a bet against
a bid of sale to Brovin I Vick, a race
hors eowned bv Ida and Charles Fn!
h r, that his animal could oulrun tine
Fuller horse.
The envelope, it is said, was given
to Allen, who was accompanied to the
Coney island saloon by Winn. There
lli, envelope was placed In the safe.
Winn charges .that while Allen had
tin- envelope containing the money
he Substituted one which contained,
only setup* of paper.
Ills louse won the race. He secured
Brown Dick, but when the envelope
was opened it did not contain the
money or the bill of sale..
Whether (ho bet can be called a bet
or whether roller can keep his horse
Is a question, as it is said If (lie money
or Dill of sail- was not in tin* envelope
it might not he a wager.

no difference of opinion that we should

“The way to make the American
people more interested in scholarship
