NEVER BEFORE IN A RACE
Zephyr Favorite in Early Betting but
is Ruled Out by Veternary-Direct
Hal Gets Chamber of Commerce
Stake-Rythmic's Time 2:11Ia,
2l4 Seconds Slower Than Record.

] Detroit, July 16.-The merchants
and manufacturers $4,000 stake for
2:24 trotters yesterday afternoon Jas
won by Rhythmic, a blind horse owned
by Jessie Turner of Paris, KY, that
had never before been started in a
race. Rhythmic's best time was 2:11h,
which is IA seconds slower than the
record for the event, made last year by
Eleata. J. G. McKinney's mare Zephyr
ruled as the favorite in the early be-.
ting, but went lame while warming up
for the race and was withdrawn after a
veterinary had pronounced the mare
Unfit to race. The track was excellent,
the weather fine and over 10000 PEG
pie were present The racing began
with two unfinished events, seven
races on a card. The amateur race to
the wagon and the second heat of the
2.11 trot was postponed until today.
He broke badly in the first heat, which
went to General Johnson and then took
the next two in driving finishes. Di-
rect Hal was in front all the way i'll
the last heat of the chamber of com
merce stake, postponed from Monday,
which he won in 2:07A. This remark
able son of Direct went faster than the
previous record for the event in all
three heats.
The Roman was even favOrite over
the field in the 2:19 trot ard won both
heats handily. In the 2:07 pace Chest
nut led to the three-quarter in the first
heat but at the turn into the str 9tch
Geers let Shadow Chimes out and 7 c
won easily. Shadow Chimes was In
front all the way in the second heat.
The 1920 pace furnished one of the
surprises. Dandy Chimes was the sav-
orite at 500 with the field at $35. IN
the first heat Greenline came through
the bunch at the quarter and took the
lead with Dandy Chimes second. These
positions held to the wire although
Geers made a strong effort with
Chimes. Greenline was in front all
the way the next two heats. 1t was
Greenline's first race. The famous
merchants and manufacturers, vas
next. Zephyr, who had brought $3.50
in auctions with Rhy thmic next at 800
and others ranging down to SIS, was
withdrawn on account of lameness.
New pools were Immediately made,
Rhythmic bringing 500 to the fields
$65. Halle Hardin had the pole in the
first heat and led to the back stretch
with Ted second. Here Rhythsic went
around them and the blind horse Led
nv Siv LENGTHS when the field came in
to the home stretch. He led all the
way in the,next two heats and was not
driven out at any time. Wentworth
finished second in the third heat after
hard drive with Lord March, which
forced the latter to third money. Dick

BUSINESS MEN
GETTING BUSY
CHICAGO MERCHANTS RENEW
ING ACTIVITIES.
STRIKERS RETURN'TO WORK
Business Interests Which Have SUI
fered Through the Strike Join in
Pedging Themselves Not to Sign
Union reement-Freight Hand
Iers Blame Teamsters for Loss.

Chicago, July 17.-ReneWed activity
on the part of Chicago business men
followed the settlement of the freight
handlers and teamsters strike yester-
day. At the close of business hours
last night thousands of tons of freight
had been sent to and from the various
freight depots. Every one OF the
$4,000 strikers who could obtain en-
ployment returned to work by in the
afternoon. The strike it is estimated
cost the business men of Chicago $10,-
000,0 900 and in order to guard against
such a contingency in the future they
are preparing to inaugurate an educa-
tional campaign in opposition to the
sympathetic strike. The labor unions
will be asked to forego the use of this
potent weapon. Business interests
which have suffered through the strike
join in pledging themselves, it is said,
not to sign union agreements which
don't guard them against these strikes.
On the other hand, the labor unions
are fighting to secure the right to alb
rogate agreements for the purpose OF
ordering sympathetic strikes. The
freight handlers blame the national of
icers of the transfers for the loss Of
the strike. They declare the strike
shows the necessity for Incorporating
in all agreements the reservation
which permits strikes. The credit for
the settlement of the strike rests with
the state board of arbitration. 1t was
the adoption of suggestions made by
that board that led to the action Of the
freight handlers union in declaring
the struggle with the railroads at an
end. At the same time it is probable
that even had the strike board not
made it's suggestions the fight would
have been practically over today, as
majority of the freight handlers re-
turned to work before the mass meet
ing, at which the strike was called off,
was officially convened. The knowl
edge of this fact had much to do with
the action taken by the union. How
ever, the proposition made by the state
board of arbitration enabled the freight
handlers to retire gracefully from the
field and prevented any hard feelings
resulting from the struggle.

Muncie, Ind. April 5.-Among the in

Neely's fine will be wholly or in part

The foundation for this belief is not
disclosed, but it is known that any
lessening Of the penalty will be through
the federal government. Neely's Ill
