there

some
directions
as

as

is
concerned,
where
he
does
not

to
see

or
enter
at

The

him.

In

to

Regarding
the
"Tote."
It
was
not
the
wish
of
anyone
to
do
away
with
the
bookmaker.
If
they
had
the
"Tote"
without
bookmakers,
there
was
no
such
thing
as
pre-betting,
he
said.
He
thought
it
would
be
most
detrimental
to
the
interests
of
racing
If
the
"Tote"
absorbed
the
whole
of
the
money
which
could
only
be
betted
on
the
course,
because
it
would
spoil,
the
whole
of
the

He
