RUMOR WAGGONERS TO MOVE - . Report that Wealthy Texans Will Transfer Their Holdings, Deny Any Intention of Dispersal of Stable or Stud Despite Numerous Sales of Horses. j ARLINGTON, Texas, June 10.4-E. Paul Waggoner and W. T. Waggoner H. are malc-ing an extended trip which will take them to Kansas City, Latonia, Rockingham Park, Suffolk Downs, New York and Chicago. In the meantime, Bud Burmester, Arlington Downs publicity director, is weeding out a few mares and younger horses to make room for others which are to be brought to the Three Ds Stock Farm. He announced today that in addition to disposing of Mis-tralkin to Adolph E. Pons, he sold to A. R. Eppenauer, Fort Worth oil man, who has a ranch at Fort Stockton, the following horses: Witch Lass, Witchmount Malacha, in foal to Royal Ford; Athens, Omar Khayyam Susie, in foal to Royal Ford ; Chu Chu, Sir Barton.

Four other mares, Minnequa, Peters Pet, Sand Porte and American Lass, which are at Kingsville, Tex.j and have been bred to Phalaros, will be returned to the farm at Arlington this month or next. Two or three recent sales of horses by: the Waggoner brothers, and the continued absence of Guy L. Waggoner at his large ranch near Mosquerb, New Mexico, today revived reports that the Waggoners were preparing to transfer most: of the financial interests of their tremendous estate to New Mexico arid ColoradOj as a result of the recent passage of racing repeal.. Such a rumor early in the year was denied and today it was said by one close to the Waggoners that the recent sales did not mean that a dispersal sale "or anything I of the like" was planned. A press dispatch, however, said that it had been admitted by persons in a position to know, that the brothers who owns the Three Ds Stock Farm, and Arlington Downs, would soon establish headquarters in New Mexico. Guy L. Waggoner resigned several months ago as chairman of the Texas racing commission, and has not been closely in touch with racing affairs since.
