Santa Anita Handicap
Today
BY Jay Davidson

Mud hens had their innings at Ascot
yesterday ana the driZzling rains of Tho
previous tWenty-four hours took tive
seconds off the track possibilities.
AS this was the first heavy track OF
the season the talent was wholly un-
able to calculate upon the probable
results until after the first two races
which showed that while the track
was not heavy except in spot, IL was
rather slow and the horses which re-
Quirc a pastcboard track were not
very much in evidence.
The first shock came in the opening
race. which event has a. record that
should tout off all play on favorites
as few have ever won the first race
of the day
Moucic Nlable was held as favorite,
while Mazouia was priced at los. This
long quotation did not remain on tho
boards one entire minute, as the wise
money started to pour into the books
at an alarming rate and crusers were
in great demand.
STEADY playing on Mazonia ham
mcrcd the price from 15s to IS at post
time and the bargain counter rush of
the pikcrs and plunEcrS to get ON
board at even this slight price con
tinued until the buzH-buzz Of the bell
denoted that the field was off
Mazonia won by half a dozen lengths
and was cantcring in the final quar-
tor Myrtle ID showed a fondness for
the EOiug and was second. being near
ly two lengths ahead of Astraea at
the wire.
Another surprise was sprung in the
second race when Susie Christian failed
TO get left at the post and romped home
ahead Of Durbar the favoritc.
DurbaT set the pace to the stretch.
I,ttt l..
by the curl mare was her undoing
and she was all out when challenged
by Susie in the final eighth.
Embarrassment was Il good thing
here and landed i'm third place, two
lengths back of Durbar.

MT Hull secuted the idea that Japan was interested In stirring up trou- ble in China to inture the United States. Japan's interests in China, he said, were Identical with those of the United States, and preservation of peace there was the only manner in which they could be maintained Speeches on tariff immigra- tion and the Payne customs house bill consumed the balance of the day.

VANDIVER CALLS
 INSURANCE MEN
Opposes Policy of Directors In Seeking Proxies to Re-elect Them
 selves to Office.

Jefferson City, Mo, February N.-State Superintendent of Insurance Vandiver to- night made public "a letter he sent today to the general solicitor of the New York Life Insurance company in which he charges that the action of the company in allowing its agents to solicit on wholesale scale proxies for use in the election of a board of trustees, is an act of bad faith on the part of the trus- tees. The letter in part follows:
 ''The printed form of proxy which pol icy holders are asked to sign is In the name of John Claflin, O. s. Strauss and C. H. Mackay, all three members of the hoard of trustees under whose manage ment the gross extravagance, graft and other forms of illegal disbursements grew to scandalous proportions. Now they ask policy holders to give them proxies to re-elect themselves. It may not be in my power to prevent the consummation of this scheme, but feel it my duty to protest against it, and to let the policy holders of Missouri know that the theory of mutual control of the New York Life is farce. so long as the present meth ods are in vogue"

IRON MARKET STILL
 SHOWING STRENGTH
STEEL CORPORATION WILL NOT EXERCISE OPTION ON 5000 TONS OF BEssEMER FOR FIRST QUAR- TER.

Cleveland, O., February H.-The Iron Trade Review tomorrow will say:
 While the demand for pig iron and some finished products is not as active as it was a few weeks ago, evidence of much strength in the market Is not lacking. In estimating the real strength of the situation, consideration of the transac- tions which have been received is inn portant for 1t is understood in the trade that more orders are often misleading on account of the well known disposition of buyers not to specify on contracts when there Is a sackening of demand. The specifications for steel products in western mills, for the past seven weeks have been IS per cent above the average weekly specifications for 1905 and orders at these mills now amount to about SoO- GOO tons for rolling at the earliest possible date. While the general report rom structural mills Is that they are not catching up on their orders, one import ant independent interest, which has refus- ed to take orders during the winter is able to give prompt shipment and is again soliciting business.
 The United States Steel corporation having decided not to exercise its options on 5000 tons of Bessemer pig iron for first quarter delivery that tonnage will be available for other buyers, who will, no doubt, promptly avail themselves of the opportunity. Basic pig iron shows in- creased strength.
 The complete report of shipments of iron from the Lake Superior ranges by mines shows that 34,353,456 tons were shipped, an increase of "A per cent over the record year of 1902.

Missouri Men Fail In Attempts to Make
 Test Case.

Kansas City, February 21.-County Prosecutor Kimbrell, upon the theory that the alleged horse race and the alleged betting at Elmridge today to test the law which prohibits betting on horse races were not in reality vio- lation of the law, refrained from arrest ing the alleged offenders, and the Elm ridge officials will be forced to file in- formation against the men who partic- ipated in the alleged racing and bet ting today if there is to be trial in the criminal court to test the law.
