New Laws Passed by New Yorkers After Long Struggle. Albany, N. ¥.—After a great struggle, the famous Agnew-Hart anti-race track gambling bills are now laws of the state of New York. The bills in no way affect, so far as their face provision go, the state racing commis sions in particular or horse racing in general, They relate solely to the penalties for gambling, pool selling and bookmaking, which, as before, are declared by the law to be “a pub lic nuisance.” Chapter 506 amends the racing law by repealing that provision under which all exclusive penality of simply recovering at civil, suit the amount wagered was incurred, which was applied to gambling with{η a race track inclosure, thus exempting such gambling from the penalties operative elsewhere in the state, and it is also provided that this gen- eral penalty shall be “imprisonment in. the county jail or penitentiary for a period of not more than one year,” without alternative of a fine. Chapter 507 amends the penal code in like manner and, in addition, changes the grade of the crime from that of felony, which any gambling was until today, to that of a misdemeanor, thus bringing the offense wjthin the jurisdiction of the minor criminal courts.

Butte, Mont.—Mrs. Margharita Ferrari, mother of Louis Ferris, on Wednesday testified in the Ferris dynamiting case that she had heard Archie Raynolds, the detective, offer her son “a fine position” if he would confess the Burliugton outrage. A sister to Ferris swore to the same interview Wednesday. Both women said that Ferris, who is weak-minded, was told that if he confessed the detectives would clear him and get him a job driving a wagon. Ferris himself took the stand in the afternoon. He denied absolutely any knowledge of the wreck, and declared that he had confessed only because the railway detectives told him he would be acquitted and given a fine position; that they had to arrest somebody, and that he would be the gainer by the deceit.
