EXPECT NO ADVERSE GOVERNMENT ACTION TORONTO, Ont., July 7. Although no definite action has been taken by the provincial government it is understood at the parliament building that no effort will be made to prevent the establishment and operation of the new race track at Port Credit, for which supplementai-y letters patent are now being sought. It is said that final decision of the government hinges upon further communication with Attorney-General Raney. Hon. II. C. Nixon, provincial secretary, through whose department the application passed, agreed with Premier Drury as to the power of the government to cancel the charter under which the company is to operate ; but pointed out that to cancel a company charter would be an unheard of thing, a iiigh handed" action on the part of the government.
