The speeches were in the more vein as

while, on the other side, the advomtes of
closure urged the importance of the sup
planeuiary tarifl bills and admitted very
frankly that therewas noposaibiiityoi
such action without a rule for the limita-
tion of debate.
The opponents of a change critically
had the best of the argument from the
beginning. it is understood that they
even invoked the ghost of the force bill,
and urged that if the Republicans should.
get into power they would revive this'
measure.
Senator German touk the lead in press—

With the ultaillfl' provision defeated, the
friends of the thrill bills gave up the fight,
considering it unnecessary to make any

that any determined opposition under the

and H. P. Dwyer are contemplating the
transfer of their racing interests to Eng-
land. hir. Grokerhashadihematter un-
der advisement some time. s
"Grokcr and I think racing‘wlll not
amount to much in this country,” said
Mr. Dwyer to a friend recently, “and as
he is anxious to go to England We think ,
we may make the experiment. ”
last week Jockey Sims, who has been
the (lroker—Dwyer rider for two naming,
was told that he might have to go to
England next sebum.
It. is not prolnblo that a decision to go
would have been marched If the antigen)-
bling amendment to the constitution had
been defeated. Under the old law racing
was about Bil pleasant and profitable an
occupation as Mr cruiser could desire.
His horses were ma by M. F. Dwyer.
.The latter owned lIgloontrollod retinal
tracks. and while kaer' 3 horses Won
the purses Dwycr backed them in the
betting ring. Frequently Croker hot on
his horasshhnself, but he was not par-
tlcularly successful.
Will Try a Few Home First.
During the coming moon, even if the
tracks remain optan, the purses will be out
down, and it will not be profitable to run
suchmcctings as Dwycr managed at Jo-
romo park last summer. Altogether, this
country does not look inviting from the
Croker-Dwyor standpoint.
Croker now has one colt by Strathmore,
out of Spinaway, dam of the crack filly
Handsplln, entered in the EnglishDorby.
He will very probably have some of his
lroqnois yearlings booked next season.
He. has not decided yet what horses he
will take over. Dobbins is a cripple and
tan hardly be counted upon. Dwyer said
he thought Harry Rood could win on the
other side, particularly in short races. lie
would also take over Stonenell, a great
sprinter when he is fit and a horse that
could hold his own against anything in
England. The firm has some coming
2-year-olds that have shown speed in pri—
vate trials, and the pick of these would
doubtless be selected.
"We would not take a big stable, " said
er. "We Would try what we could
do with a few horses"
(‘roher as a llrttor.
While Crokor was not a plunger in the
sense that Dwycr is a plunger, Croker
frequently made big bets. When'Dobbins

or a trainer. No one but himself knows,
whether he is a winner or inner on all his
trotting, and be rumly discusses the mat-
ter. Broker did all his betting in cash
exwpt what he did through Dwyt-r.
Croker and Dwycr are so intimately”-

is difficult to tell just how much Croker
