Ii was a 30O-yard dash for s2oo pot. s S1o0 forfeit on either side. Clay won by about thirty feet. Neither horse made turf record, and beth showed lack of training. How ever. the packers of the losing horse believed they ought to have had the money. and a warm dispute followed the race. The WiscaryeT crowd want cd to run the race over and double the pot Moore, however. declined, say ing he didn't want their money. The sz06 won by Clay is still staked for a bet against any horse in Bisbee or ad' jaeent territory. or a return match with the Wiscaryer horse. It has not yet been called.

GOMPERS DRAWS
LINE At CHINESE
DOESN'T WANT UNCLE SAM TO
EMPLOY THEM
In Statement Issued II Is Pointed Out
That Coolies Are Excluded by
Law From United States
Possessions
BY Associated Press.

WASHINGTON, Aug 1t.-samuel
Gompers, president of the American
Federation of Labor, today issued u
statement concerning the action of the
isthmian canal commission in deciding
to introduce Chinese coolie labor to
the work of constructing the canal
across the Isthmus of Panama. The
statement follows:
1T seems that those in charge Of the
Panama canal construction have re-
gard for neither law nor principle First
in the most extraordinary manner the
eight hour law is -annulled in the great
est public work ever undertaken by the
government by the pretense that con-
ditions there are different than they are
in the United States. 1t must appeal to
the veriest tyro that If eight hours
work is regarded as sufficient in the
temperate zone of the United States
certainly ten, eleven and even more
hours of labor day in the pestilential
and miasmc atmosphere of the Panama
zone are not only improper but brutal.
Law Excludes Chinese
THE existing law excludes Chinese
laborers and coolies from the United
States or any of its possessions. The
Panama canal zone is an American
possession and it is as much VIOLA
ton of the law to bring Chinese coolies
there as to other portions of our coun-
try.
'Some time ago in an Interview l
had with Chairman Shonts 1 protested
the employment of Chinese
coolies in the Panama canal construc-
tion as had been published in the news
papers it was the intention of Mr..
Shonts to do. He there and then en-
stated that it was not the
then to employ Chinese coolies
and that they would not be employed
under his administration
