NORTH SYDNEY. N. s.. Nov. 20. "
In a letter to his brother, A. Henry
shortail, one Of the crew of Peary's
steamer Roosevelt, gives particulars
Of a strike among the crew Of the
steamer at Hopedale, one of the most
northerly ports on Labrador's coast,
when the explorer was at that place
on October %.
shortail states that the mate, boat

that time she was leaking badly, and
had her stern crushed in. They then

starvation and we're living in such
squalor and filth that their physical
condition was endangered.
The hardships they endured in the
polar regions were indescribable. The
members Of the crew demanded sur
yey of the Roosevelt, but neither Com
mander Peary nor Captain Bartlett
would consent to the crew going home
tt st. Johns by the steamer Virginia
Lake. as they wished.
shortail says that the story Of their
sufferings would fill a volume, and
that under no circumstances would
any of them ever again go north on
a similar expedition.
When the Roosevelt left North sgd
ney she had three boilers, but before
the ship reached Greenland two Of
them had burst. He also stated that
the ship was anything but fit for Arc

it, after getting into heavy ice she

Since August last the men had been
living on two meals a day. shortail
criticises Peary in the strongest terms
and says he would not undertake
such a voyage in such a ship again

When M. 3. Moshers horse, zollie,
was entered recently, the fact was
noted IN the Los Angeles daily papers,
but at the speed committee meeting It
was misplaced and did not appear on
the official program. r.. j. Delorey,
vice president of the club, had n horse
entered for the same race, and con-
tended that as Mosher's horse was not
officially entered the animal could not
race. A vote was taken and Delorey's s
objection was oVerruled. Mosher's
horse entered and defeated the vice

ARRANGES CARD
RIVERSIDE ENTERS NINE FAST
HORSES
AS a Lengthy Program Has Been Pre-
pared, Speed Committee Decides
to Make Portion of Events
in Nature Of Dashes

Nine fast Riverside harness horses
have been entered in the Christmas
matinee to be given by the Los An
geles Driving club at Agricultural park.
With many events on the program the
speed committee decided to make part
OF these races dashes. The free-for-all
trot is a cracker jack; in this are en-
tered Hazel Mckinney owned by
President Reynolds, with a record of
2:121s; Danube, owned by Captain j.
G.. Newton of South Pasadena, Just
worked q trial mile near 2:10; Sonoma
Girl, entered by j. d. Springer, who
thinks she can step a mile better than
2:0S.
The 1925 trot, unfinished at last matt
nee, will be the first race on the pro-
gram; in this race there are eight en-
tries. The feature of the day will be
the free-for-all pace. Copa de ORC,
owned by Mrs. N. Bonfilio, looks like
a winner of this race; he has worked
a mile in 2:07A and has stepped a
quarter in :59%-a 1856 clip. He Is a
fine gated animal and level headed
Welcome Mac and Explosion will surely
have to step some to beat this colt.
Welcome Mac has a matinee record of
2:08%; he is owned by Thomas Hughes
and has beaten his opponents in nearly
every race in which he has started at
the Driving clubs matinees. Explosion
owned by j. H. Watkins, is also a very
promising mare; she worked a trial
mile the other day in 2:09h and she
looks like a good one.
President Alex Wilson of the River
side Driving club gives nine entries
to start at the matinee of the Los An
geles Driving club as follows: The
Blonde, owned by Alex M. Wilson, with
matinee record of 2:221a. Conchita
owned by ]. H. Thompson, is able to
step in 2:22 or better. Adalantha, b. g..
owned by G.. w. Preston, which has
worked in 2:23A. Honest John, owned
by John Lozenby, with record of 2:2S
Moo d, owned by Axel Nelson, to start
in the 2:35 class. Coupon, owned by J.
7. Garner and which can step around

DRIVING CLUB
OFFICER RESIGNS
REDPATH RESENTS SEVERE
CRITICISM
Internal Dissension Results in Secre-
tary Sending Resignation to
Directors of the
Club

with the resignation of Secretary K.
V. Redpath of the Los Angeles Driving
club yesterday comes a strong intima-
tion of dissension a result of which is
the withdrawal of Mr.. Redpath from
oficial duties in connection with the
club.
Following Is the resignation handed
Driving club directors by Redpath:
"To the President and Board of Di-
rectors of the Los Angeles Driving
Club:
Gentlemen: I hereby tender my res
ignation as secretary of the Lon Ange-
les Driving club, to take effect at the
earliest convenience of the board.
IT feel that have not received the
proper respect, support and co-opera-
tion from the president and directors
that L deserve.
IT am resigning from the secretary
shin when the club is in the most pros
porous financial period of the year. and
at a time when the treasury is larger
than for many years past.
"My interest and enthusiasm for the
welfare and success of the club is still
unab abated and 1 sincerely wish the club
the prosperity and success that it de-
serves. Very respectfully,
*. V. REDPATH.
Secretary Los Angeles Driving Club"
1t appears that there has been trouble
for some months past and Mr.. Redpath
desisted from resigning earlier, as a
large amount of detail was in order in
connection with the Thanksgiving and
Christmas day matinees. Since the
election of John II. Reynolds as presi-
dent of the club Mr.. Redpath claims
that he has been subject to uncalled-for
criticism, and as a result felt 1t in
cumbent upon him to leave the office
which he has held for some time.
Redpath, in speaking of the situation
yesterday, said:
"Mr. Reynolds shortly after his cleo
tion to the Los Angeles Driving club
presidency wrote me letter which ap-
peared entirely uncalled-for Insinua-
tions were embodied to the effect that
business transactions had not been
properly conducted. 1 take exceptions,
