SPEEDWAY FLYERS
The Arizona Contingent Arrived in
 New York Safely.

That the w. c. Greene string of horses that left Phoenix a few days ago, arrived in New York safely is evident from the following article published in the New York Evening Telegram of May 10:
 W. c. Greene, who has figured prom inently in many affairs of public inter- est since he took up his abode in Goth am, has brought his stable of road horses 10 this city They arrived yes terday and are now quartered in the stable owned by F. H. Hartman, near the entrance of the Speedway.
 One of the latest episodes in which MT. Greene figured occurred on April 10, when he was met just after leav- ing his apartments in the Ansonia by James w. Goodman, who held him up at the muZzle of a revolver and finally escorted him down town, keeping the weapon in a menacing position until MT. Greene was able to get assistance and cause the arrest of his assailant.
 In addition to the horses quantity of what the public generally terms California hay was part of the out fit. The trainer, G. V. ,Klotzbach, eX- plained that the feed-a species of mammoth oats-had been harvested this year. as the climate of the valley in which Phoenix is located was so moderate that winter was really un- known, and the grass was green dur ing every month in the year with the help of irrigation.
 MT. Greene owns extensive mining interests in Mexico and a ranch of several thousand acres, aside from a large ranch near Hereford, Arizona. where he also has extensive cattle in terests. The fact that his horses had grown and matured where nature had afforded plenty of sustenance was demonstrated by their size and condi- ton. Readers who saw the bay trotter Monroe and the pacer Mush when Monroe Salisbury arrived at the Elm pire track last year can form an accu- rate idea of the appearance of the two fleet pacers in the Greene stable, one of them being yet under three years of age.
 This fellow named Arizona, is a rich bay in color and stands sixteen hands. He is by Zombro, 2:11 son of McKin- ney, 2:11 1-2 and his dam, Belle Rich mond, was got by Raymc nd, "a son Of Simmons, 2:2S. On account of his size and need of age to mature. but little has been done in the way of training but he gives premise of great speed.
 CObre Grande, which in plain Eng fish means big copper, is a chestnut six years old and standing over six teen hands. He is also a pacer, and his sire was a son'of TCbasco, 2:10 3-4. His dam traces to the noted Hal fam fly that has produced so many pacing champions Cobre Grande has been developed and his speed is of the whirl- wind crder., Unless the change of eli mate affects him adversely he will fig ure in the fast speedway contingent.
 Miss Boydello, handsome bay mare, is a trotter, and her three-year- old record of 2:29 1-4 was the best on record for that age in Arizona. Jessie Mac, a shapely chestnut, two years old, | is by Mckinney, 2:11 1-2 and her dam | is by Venture, that got Stemwinder, the dam of the champion Directum, t2:05 IA
 pair of pacing mares, Janello and { Camelleo, make up the remainder of the driving stable. These mares are closely matched in size and confoIma- tion and the owner regards them as an ideal pair for light harness driving. It will require several days for the horses to get proper rest after the long jour ney, and their trainer does not intend to hurry them before the speedway public.
