UNLAWFUL BETTING.
CHRISTCHURCH, July 18. The combined committee of the New Zealand Racing and Trotting Conference, lias considered recent prosecutions lor betting with a bookmaker, and has arrived at the following decision:— "The recent prosecutions of those who unlawfully betted with bookmakers have brought home to the offenders the possible consequences of their action, as to which deceptive immunity had emboldened them. This warning seems certain to be an effective preventive, and the Combined Committee of the New Zealand Racing and Trotting Conference, considers that as it is difficult to discriminate among applicants, the Committee has decided to grant exemption in all these cases, coupled with the assurance that neglect of this warning will entail a more prolonged disability. Exemption will date from Ist August next, to those who apply for it.
