THE BARLOW CASE

The Taranaki Metropolitan Committee met on Monday and delivered a lengthy judgment in the Barlowcase, in which Barlow was charged with having pulled Master Sylvia in the Railway Handicap at the Egmont Racing Club, meeting on May 17th. The stewards of the Egmont Racing Club disqualified Barlow- for (twelve months,' and he appealed against this decision to the Metropolitan Committee.- After dealing with the facts of the- case at great length, the judgment concludes:—“After full enquiry, at which the Egmont Racing Club and Barlow have had fidl opportunity of being hoard and adducing evidence, and with much additional evidence now brought before it, as well as the material before it in June, and that before the .judicial committee in May. and August, and that before the judges of the Conference in July, the Metropolitan Committee again deals with the matter on its merits. It decides that it is proved that Barlow has not been guilty of any corrupt or fraudulent practice in relation to the riding of Master Sylvia in the Railway Handicap at the Egmont race meeting on May 17, 1911. If it bo necessary in the peculiar circumstances of the case to make any such formal order it is ordered that the appeal of Barlow-.be allowed, and the decision of the judicial committee removed.
