RESERVED JUDGMENT
A BOOKMAKER FINED. By Telegraph —Per Press Association , WELLINGTON, April 27. George Nelson Shore, a tobacconist, of Hataitai. was held, in a reserved judgment of Mr Page, S.M., delivered tc-day, to come within the meaning of a bookmaker, and a fine of £SO was impeded, payable at the rate of one third on each month, for three months. This was a prosecution which followed the refusal of a father to pay IBs soil’s debt. f l he tact, said Mr Page, if it was a fact, that the de fondant’s practice wats to lay off his Pets with a bookmaker from whom lie may have been allowed a commission, doe-, not. in my opinion, alter his own status as a bookmaker.
