Julius S. Grinnell, Judge, presiding.\nMr. B. M. Shaffner, for appellant.\nAppellee admits receiving $1,000 from appellant for wagering on horse races. This is gaming. Tatman v. Strader, 23 Ill. 493.\nAnd is clearly recoverable under the statutes. See 179 and 180, Chap. 38, R. S.\nUnder appellee\u2019s theory, the most favorable position he occupies is that of stakeholder. The law is well settled that money deposited with a stakeholder and by him not paid over, is recoverable by the depositor. Cotton v. Thurland, 5 T. R. 405 ; Hastelow v.
