just before the Moscow campaign OF Ma

which had just been vacated by the emperor

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES -
BIKE RACERS.
Points Oh Yesterdays Road Contest
Between Santa Fe and Lamy.

Great interest was shown In the handi-
cap cyclers' contest run between Santa
Fe and Lamy yesterday afternoon. The
distance is eighteen and one-half miles.
The road was somewhat rough, owing to
the late rains. Arthur Hudson, who,
owing to his short-leggedness, was al
lowed thirty minutes time over the
scratch starters, was the first to reach
Lamy, his time being one hour and thirty
minutes, though the best performance of
the day was 10y Mr.. Moore, one of the
Alhuq quartet to start on the
scratch. He covered the distance in one
hour and eight minutes, over q strange
road and that, too, when he had wheeled
it all the way from Albuquerque the day
before. Many lively incidents character
lied the race. r. G. Gortner attempted
to take short cut, lost the road and had
to ride about four miles on the railroad
track. Messrs Stein and Alley met with
accidents, the latter losing his tire. This
was regretted, for on Friday Mr.. Alley
covered the distance in one hour and
three minutes, unofficial time. Mr.. Geebel
went out with placard on his back, "To
Lamy or bust" and before he got there
he was pretty we'll "busted." Following
is the order and time of their arrival at
Lamy:
Arthur Hudson, p. M; j. Moore, 1908;
j. M. Diaz, 4:12; L. Scott, Alb; J. N.
Shurtz, Alb; W. Baker, Ala; F. Hudson,
4:16; A. j.. Fischer, 4:22; AL. Codington,
4:31; f. G. Alley, 4:31; W. H. Goebel, 4:45;
Geo. Brady, 4:50; j. Stein, 500.
The next race will probably be to Ger.
rillos and after that relay race to Albu-
querque.

Not Misrepresented.

The New MEXICAN regrets that Mr..
Steve Arnold has .een fit to deny the in
terview contained in these columns day
or two ago as to the effect of the new
tariff law upon the cattle industry. His
statement IN the latter part of his
card in yesterdays Republican that the
"NEw MEx1cAN's statements attributed to
me were certainly SO" seems, however, to
indicate that Mr.. Arnold himself is in
doubt as to where he is "at.' The re-
porter who called on Mr.. Arnold stated
plainly that he represented the NRw MHx-
loan and that he desired for publication
Mr.. Arnoli's views on the subject men.
toned. Mr.. Arnold talked freely, and
frankly. He did say That it was
"all humbug" to ascribe the present price
of cattle to Mexican competition under the
tariff law, and, while he may not recol-
lect it, he did say all that is ascribed to
him in that article as to the price Of cat
tie and the causes thereof. The New
MEXICAN has no need to misrepresent any
ones views in this cam paign, even if it
desired to do so, and 1t is certain that il
would not and did not misrepresent Mr..
Arnold in this matter.
