That was acceptable and in less than a week Barrie wired that he was readyto exhibit the results of his art. The demonstration was a success and the okay pllced on m! rlllllnl- The first thorough- bred the syndicate bought was Kalakaua. He had run s. mile in 1:36 which placed him in really fast company. His cost was $2.500. Barrie studied him carefully and came to the conclusion that none of the nsgs he already owned would make a suitable duplicat - so he scouted for a. horse of q). proximately the .same measure- ments and found one in Spring- field. Illinois. Bothy Dean. that he paid 8100 for. Bobby Dean ivas entered in half a dozen races in the United States nd Canada and in every event he ate the dust of the other horses. Not once did he finish in the money and the odds splraled high- er with every defeat. While Bobby Dean was piling up a string oi "ll-its" Barrie was training Kala- kaua. entering the thoroughbred ‘in Just enough races to keep him in tip tarp condition. Towards the and of the summer season Capone decided suddenly to collect on his investment. He wanted to see the race so Washington Park, located ln Chicago, was selected as the scene of the great coup and the date was Labor Day, 1926. All horses racing at Washington Park were examined thoroughly upon arrival. Barrie had plenty o! confidence in his ability but saw no reason to tempt fate. I-le arranged to do the ringing right at the track. The two horses, e Bobby Dean and» Kalakaua, were brought‘ to the Park together and stabled near each other. The day before Labor Day races Barrie went to work and he had only 24 hours in which to make Kalakauu look exactly like Bobby Dean. A cordon of Capone's gunmen were t-hrown around the stable to give warning whmever s. stranger ap- proached. In that case Barrie would throw a blanket over Kala- kaua and pretend to be grocming him. In the meantime the syndi- cats’: agents in all the big cities were betting plenty on Bobby Dean and to avoid lowering the odds the money was spread around as much as possible. By the midnight pre- ceding the race Barrie had finished his part in the swindleaTiic thugs who had kept a ceaseless vigil gathered around the horses and admired the handiwork. but the con men were counting on profits before they were made. Shortly before dawn nature took a hand in the game and rain poured down ceaselessly. The track was s. verit- able sea of mud and while Kala- kaua on a fast track could caszly outdlstance any other horse in the race, he was not a good mudder. Barrie advised Capone to scratch the counterfeit Bobby Dean but he refused and said _he had better win-or else. Two of his gunmen were stationed to watch Barrie and when the fateful race be- gan he had one on either side oi him and was well aware of the fact that, lf the fake Bobby Dean did not win it was curtains for him. _ , He closed his eyes when the starting signal was given but fin- ally screwed up cnoudh courale W take a glimpse and saw “Bobby Dean" well out in front.
