NEW YORK, Aug. 10.—Something may be done at the next session of the Illinois Legislature toward the passage of a measure which will restore racing to Chicago. This much was intimated today by Charles Mier, manager for John Condon, the blind turf magnate. Condon and Mier are both here, spending the warm summer days at the Oriental Hotel, Manhattan Beach. Speaking of the prospect of racing being resumed at Chicags next year, Mier said: | “A mistaken impression seems to ex- ist that the present lull in racing mat- ters In the West is due to the old troubles of Condon and Ed Corrigan. Such i= not the case. The trouble Is due to the work of reformers in the |last elegtion. Certain promises were | made and had to be kept, among them | the closing down of the racetracks In | and about Chicago. People who worked | hard to bring this state of affairs about are clamoring for the return of the me." Asked if Condon would make an at- | tempt to have a measure passed at the | coming session of the Illinois Legis- | lature looking to the revival of racing, Mier declined to commit himself, but he intimated, however, that something | may be done, not by Condon but by certain business interests in Chi- caga heats | AT BEAUTIFUL .

Special Dispatch to The Call OLDFIELD, Aug. 10.—Aifter it had been definitely decided yesterday afternoon to defer all further negotiations regarding the questions | at issue between Nolan and Gans until today, the two men met by with Tex Rickard and resumed the chance late last evening at the Northern, where, one or two other of the fight promoters, th discussion of - points upon which they had failed to agree at ference on Wednes-" day evening. The result of this confab was the agreement wh both men signed and the terms of which were_ telegraphed late last night. It was further | agreed that a meeting should be held at 2 o'clock this afternoon, at which the articles should be signed. On further consideration today it was de- cided to postpone this meeting, as a telegram was received from Nelson ap- prising his manager that he would be here this evening. The train is due at 9:15 o'clock, and it was thought best to wait until the Battler arrived and out of courtesy make him a party to the signing. Later it was learned that the train is several hours late, so the Dane will miss the ovation prepared for him. The articles will be signed without fail tomorrow Both Nolan and Gans declare themselves willing to accept any referee of prominence, Siler preferred. Gans is taking things easy. He won a good stake from one of the crap games today. It has developed that $102,000 was subscribed to guarantee the purse and expenses of this forth- | coming fight.
