Big Store Book Laid Off for Few Days Because Business Was Bad. WILL BE AT GRAVESEND. Jockey Club Has Not Inter- mont Ordered Ullman Out of the Ring. Joe Uiman has not been barred off the disbarment because John W. Gates, posed to be Intergsted in the book, pinch ed the Jock deal in Louisylile and Nashville ‘These reports are founded on supposition, and an comes from Tilman himaelf to-da The fact that the book lald of yes- terday and did not accept any bets of- | fered an excuse for sensationalists to | gssign the above reasons wr the book's cessation of business. This is what Joe Ullman said at the Hotel Majestic this Club President in a recent | mere Not Harred—Ullman, | “The story that we have been barred off at Sheepshead Bay is rot.” said Ullman. “We did not open yesterday because we were not doing a satisfac- tory business. We drew a very bad lo- cation In the ring and could not get any of the smaller bets. Woe wanted the smaller bets and because we could Mot get them we decided to lay off a few days. “We cd wid take large commissions. and that was practically all we got where we were. The profit is in the small bets, and for that reason the best Jozation in the betting shed 1s near the main entrance or where the biggest crowd is likely to congregate. Weller In Sick. “Again, my partner Weller, here, has been sick the last week or so, and we thought a few days off would do him good. I am glad we did not open yes- ferday, as we would have lost a lot of hall go to Sheepshead Saturday And open the book, as there is always @ good Saturday crowd. We can make money on that. We have had a very favorable season and have made money. We are ahead of the game and are pl ‘ing conservatively now, not want- cr to drop what we have pulled out of It. Didn’t Win $150,000 on Savable. “The story that we mado $160,000 on Sayable in the Futurity js wrong. Wi: made ust exactly $31,000 on Savable. And while I'm talking about that 1 wan! to deny the stories that Gates, Drake and O'Leary are interested in my book, No one ig in it but ‘Kid’ Weiler and We did not take the Drake myself, money on Savable because we did not like the bet. We were betting on Savable ourselves and it would have been senseless for us to hedge. Will Opem at Gravesend. ext Monday we will go to Graves- end with our book and we wil be ‘open there regularly, We are on good terms ith the Metropolitan Racing Assocla- tion, of which we are members, and the association is on good terms with the Coney Island Jockey Club, Individu- ally we have no dealings with the jocke club and it could not order us off t track. However, our relations are very pleasant.” ; These are the plain facts of the case, and every young man or bookmaker knows what Uliman says is true, Busl- ness is very bad at Sheepshead for var- Jous reasons, the principal one being the defeat of so many favorites. Not a single favorite won yesterday, In elght Gays’ racing only thirteen’ favorites have won The average 1s usually 4% percent. ‘The result of this unprevedent- ed defeat of favorites has ben to para- lyze speculation, The pubilc, a favorite «player always, has withdrawn Its supe port and there is little or no money in cireulation in the ring. There Js plenty of what 18 known as “shark money.” This is money which comes from very Well informed people and the books are not fond of taking bets of this sort. Jockey Club Didn’t Interfere. Ullman operated magnificent ecale at Baratoga. was plenty of money, and many horses were played in @ race: He had, thorefore, no opportun- ity to rovnad up his book. e stories that the Jockey Club has interfered with Ullman and ordered his withdrawal from the ring are absurd, | One of the Jockey Club rules Is to the eect that ete cesY, OlN pee no cognizance of bets.” As a matter of fact the Jockey Club has not the power. to bar Uliman from doing business in the ring.
