THE CROWD DIUGUSTED.

Yesterdays Enditmnents Shocked theWintec Racers at Ivy City.

"Dat settles It, seer" remarked one of theadvocates of winter racing at the Ivy Citytrack yesterday afternoon, when It becameknown that District Attorney Birney hadsecured the Indictment ot Bookmaker Mar-!win and his three asmistants, as reportedin yesterday's Star, and, with the possibleexception of Philanthropist Engeman anidhis Immediate associates In the manage-ment of the Ivy City Club, no one reallydoubted the correctness of the assertion.There may have been a more gloomy set

of race track regulars than those who at-tended the Ivy City racas yesterday, butIt Is a matter not In the memory of men.While they and the management professedto feel confident that Judge Miller wouldprousptly decide in their favor at the hear-ing of the case yesterday afternoon, never-theleas It was very apparent that theywere not by any means as confident asthey desired to be believed. News fromthe city of -the hearing was most anxiouslyawaited, and for a moment or two thegloom was dispelled and cheers and yellsof joy and exultation broke the funerealquiet when, shortly after 3 o'clock. wordwas received from the city that the casehad been thrown out of court by JudgeMiller. But the cheers and yells had notentirely died away when the sickeningnews came that the case had been noliepressed by the district attorney for thereason that he had meantime secured theIndIctment of the four men. At first thereport was discredited, bat when It wasconfirmed a few minutes later, It was aquestion whether the rage or despair ofthe small crowd In attendance was thegreater. The management declared that,notwithstanding the action of Mr. Birney,the meeting would be continued, and theentries for today's races were given out.But after a consultation with their counselIn town, the managers of the meeting an-nounoed that racing would be discontinuedurtll further notice.Six races were run yesterday, but little,If any, real interest was taken In them.

Inspector Hollinberger and his men wereat the track to prevent a resumption ofbetting, should It be attempted; but, whileno open betting was attempted, there was,nevertheless, not a lIttle done on the quiet,through the medium of nods and winks.It was done very quietly, however, for in-spector Hollinberger was aware that Itwas being done, and had Instructed his mento promptly arrest every one caught atIt. The winning horses were: Sam Bryant,Fiction, Addle, Ely, Lester and Blue Blood.
