THE WOMEN FLYERS.


The mayor and nearly all the members
of the City Council attended the bicycle
race of women in Tominson Hall last night
and looked on with keen interest as the
five daring riders made circuit after circuit
of the little track. There was an audience
of about 1.soO people: The racing last night
was full of interest throughout. although
the five riders had the same distance for the
night credited to their scores 4 the close.
The best time of any night was made, and
there was more effort made to make gains,
but with never any success. The ewiry trailers
are good at keeping up with whatever pace
may be set, even if they are unable to take
the lead for any considerable time, and are
already practically out of the race so far
as first place is concerned.
The finish was, as usual exciting. Ander-
son was third, Farnsworth second and Allen
setting the pace just before the pistol shot
for the last four laps was fired. Anderson
did not wait for the shot, however. but
started out TO gain d lap, If possible at
the finish. She was about two laps in adj
vance of the signal. and made a merry race
of it, Almost before the other riders We're
aware of her intention she had shot out
ahead OF them and soon almost lost them
but Farnsworth managed TO close up the
gap and finish on the last lap only a few
wheel lengths away. The others were trail
ing. with Allen more than a half lap to the
bad.
Tonight will occur the finish of the race
and every inch of ground will be fought
hard. 1t is almost as good as settled that
either Farnsworth or Anderson will win
first place, but which il will be will prob
ably remain question until the last lap of
tbs last mile. Miss Allen. with only two
laps less TO her credit, will probably hold
third place and Miss Christopher and Miss
Baldwin will fight for fourth place. Miss
Baldwin is almost ill. suffering with grip.
Miss Christopher is i'm poor condition for the
strain but both will continue to the last
and try to hold their own with nc further
losses of distance. Miss Farnsworth and
Miss Anderson both say they cannot pos
sIbly lose first place. 1t has been decided to
begin the races tonight at S:45 This is done
in order that persons who are engaged late

Chicago Change.


Chicago. March 26-Wheat prices got
which then occurred being due to a strong
market at st. Louis. From the opening
until about noon, weakness and Guinness
went hand in hand. Fine spring weather
was probably the most potent among the
weakening influences and afforded short
sellers with an argument comprehensive in
itself After u O'clock change came over
the market, St. Louis advancing over cent
on a builish report by the Modern Miller
and carrying Chicago upward with it. May
wheat opened from 721aM72l4c, sold between
721sc and 7S1sc, closing at 727sc-1sQAc high
er than yesterday. Cash wheat was irreg-
ular, closing steady The tone of the corn
market was rather weak although there
was some display of courage by holders;
May corn opened at 24i2c, sold at 249se and
2i2sGt241ec, closing at 2412c-a shade under
yes terday. Cash corn was quiet and steady.
There was neither strength nor activity
in oa,ts early. The main influence in de-
flying the tone was the action of the leading
markets. The business consisted OF local
transactions principally, with professionals
generally working in the direction of fore
ing a decline Prices frmed with those of
wheat later in the session. May oats closed
unchanged from yesterday. Cash cats We're
quotably easy in feeling, but unchanged in
price.
