heavy in spots, ana the generally eX-
pressed opinion was that few would get in
inside of three hours. The betting, OF
which there was little, was all that way
on time, and no one seemed to be par
ticular favorite. Just as the procession
moved down Main street to cross the
bridge and take the road, where racing be-
gan, the sun came out.
No. 80, George T.. Williams, or the Cen
tury Club, arrived at 5:l6. He was far In
advance of all the others. Williams's Oil
cial time was 2:29:33.

burg Athletic Club, was second, arriving
