sIx-DAY BICYCLE RACE.
Gimm Over a Hundred Miles Ahead
of the Former Record.

SAN FRANCISCO Feb. 16-After
trying all the evening, Charlie Miller at
last gained lap upon Louis Gimm,
the leader in the international six-day
race Gimm was eating at the time,
and allowed Miller to get too far away
from him. A couple of laps obtained
previously and the last hard fight gave
Gimm his first voluntary inclination to
take the rest so much needed, and he
dismounted, whereupon Miller shot in
to the lead in the bunch and made a
dash to overhaul the lead of nearly
twenty miles held by the Pittsburg
rider Gimm had to be begged before
he would leave the track in the sixty
fourth hour to-day, and he slept by ac-
cident while enjoying a massage by
Eddie Leonart Leonart allowed his
man to sleep for fifty minutes, leaving
him little over seven miles in the
lead upon his return. Gimm then trailed
and worried Miller until that rider
finally left the track, claiming that
Pierce and Gimm were doing team
work.
Thirteen men are still left in the ter
rible record breaking grind The record
figures made at Madison Square Gar
den are being wiped clean from the
slate, and new figures going up now
will stand lot of beating on any track
which may be built in Madison Square
Gardens ten lap circle. The record is
behind the men over 100 miles, and go
ing farther back all the time. Fresh
as they are now, they will continue to
average several miles better than the
hour was averaged at the same period of
the New York race. Aaronson is being
pushed for third place by Waller and
Ryan. Just after the midnight hour
he fell, and Referee Aylward ordered
him from the track for a rest in ac-
cordance with the orders of the man
agement who will allow none of the
distressing scenes SO common in all
classes of six-day races in the old days.
The score at 12:54 a. M, the end of
the seventy-fourth hour of the race,
was as follows: Gimm 1,301.7, Miller
1862, Aaronson 1892, Fredericks
1,1S7.1, Pierce 1850, Hale 1855, AL
bert 1,15S.3, Nawn 1,15O7, Barnaby
/, 144.4, Lawson 1,1421, Pilkington
1,0SO.2, Ashinger 1920 julius 1928
The best previous record for the same
time was 1,194 miles and 220 yards,
made by Miller at New York.

Imprisonment.
The same afternoon Won BuIow, the
German lawyer who had represented
the Mataafa people in the trial, gath
cred a crowd of natives and maze an
assault on the Jail, brandishing an AK
and threatening to break into the Jail.
Cleerk Denvers appeared on the scene
and disarmed him. That night at 1890
o'clock President Rafael, who had
charge of the municipal police, went to
the Jail and released Groesmuhl and
took him to the German Consulate. I
am now demanding his return to the
jail, and unless my demand is COM
piled, with by tomorrow l will issue
writs for his arrest and summons the
President to show cause why he should
not be punished.
THE farce cannot be continued much
longer. Either America or England
must annex these islands.
LAS an American expansionist
would naturally like to see the Stars
and Stripes run up over these islands.
but I am not certain that it would be
best. The English outrumb.r US here
10 to 1, and their commerce with the
islands is vastly greater Than ours.
believe the majority of the Americans
would be just as content with Eritish
annexation as American.

case be insisted upon, I'd il any ar :

snow-storm in Maryland.

CUMBERLAND (Md), Feb. ia
heavy snow began falling here at
noon to-day, and advices from the sur
rounding towns indicate that it is gem
eral in this section of the State. The
fall is as great as that of Sunday and
Monday, and if it continues during the
night, as it promises to do, there are
grave fears that the railroads in this
neighborhood will be again completely
blocked. Great apprehension is also
felt that a flood in the upper Potomac
River will occur because of the ice
gorges and high water.
