Three of the six races at Emeryville
today will be contested by horses of
class. The remaining three-those
which come first on the programme
are made up of large fields of very
moderate caIiber. TWO maiden races
will be followed by a race for maiden
Jockeys, and betting is likely to be
very light in the early part of the
afternoon.
Irish Mike may win the opener, as
he is fair sort, and has shown some
speedy trials. Henry Kelly is we'll
thought-of youngster, and was heavily
supported last time, but ran out.
Avona and BERTHE A look best in the
second, and should run one-two. as
the rest of the contestants have shown
nothing.
The third is the race in which the
horses will be ridden by boys who have
never piloted a winner. Andrew Mack
probably will be ridden by the stable
boy Nutting, who has had considera-
BILE experience and looks likeliest. jack
full will have up Mentry, who narrowly
escaped ineligibility In the final race
yesterday. He had the mount on Fun
nyside, who was beaten head by
Flaunt Trapsetter is in good form,
and may get some of the money.
The Ballyhoo handicap, which is the
fourth race on the card, is the feature
Of the programme. It has very open
aspect. St. Francis has dazzling speed,
but, may not like to go the route. Ethel
Day is reputed to dislike a slow track.
Ocean Shore has been running with
remarkable consistency, and, although
having the worst of the weights, may
not be easy to beat. Gateway will like
the track.
Beechwood looks best In the fifth,
and Jocund appears the probable con-
tender. Fulletta has been running poor
ly in his recent starts.
Edwin Gum and Blagg are likely to
make stirring contest of the final
event of the day. Gum has won his
last two starts, and is right on edge,
while Blagg also has been running very
consistently. Miss Rifle appears to
hold the others easily safe

of Suspending Field
Day Relations
SPECIAL DIsPArcH TO THE CALL

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Feb. IS
Assurance was given today by DR..
Frank Angel, chairman of the faculty
athletic committee. that if the student
bodies of Stanford and California, could
not adjust their differences over the
track meeting no measures would be
taken by the faculty to force a settle
ment
IF the student bodies appeal to US
for advice. we certainly shall attempt
a settlement Of the dispute, but other
wise it is not a question for US t9,
consider. My own feeling Is that uIf4
less the students can conduct their In
tercollegfate relations in a cIearheaded
manner it might be an elective meas
ure to suspend all intercollegiate rela-
tions until they can deal with one an
other in a calmer spirit"
The executive COMMITTEES OF the stu

day night. and there is no expectation
that 1T viii then recede from It's pres

and good manners who became known
to the police In his connection with the
Nanny Pleasant case and was after
ward sentenced TO San Quentin for
fourteen years for having forged the
name of Mrs. Theresa Bell to a check.

worked himself into the graces of DR..
Voorhies, and was about to obtain
from him various letters of introduce

scribed the accomplishments of his
protege to DIR. Young,-a Post-street

FLAUNT AT LONG ODDS
Gossip of the Track

There IS a possibility that Herman
Radtke, the crack jockey whom Jack
Keene developed, viii finish the season
at Emeryville, riding for his old en-
plOyer. Radtke was restored to good
standing last week after having been
on the ground all winter, following his
suspension on the metropolitan tracks
last fall for disciplinary ends. He re-
sumed riding on Saturday at Ascot
Park, where he has spent the winter
in charge Of Ed Peters, and his show
ing in the saddle yesterday demon
strated that he had lost none of his
oldtime skill He had only three
mounts and after winning with the
first one, landed the other two in sec
ond place. Jack Keene is making a
determined effort to engage Radtke's
services for the remainder Of the time
he is to ride in California, prior to
going East to ride for Roy Rainey,
who holds the contract on him. Keene
wired TO Radtke's manager at Ascot
yesterday 10 name figure at which
he would be willing TO let the boy
handle the Keene horses during the
next month.
W. 3. Jennings is so dissatisfied with
the way in which Jockey Brown has
ridden his horses of late that Graham
probably viii displace Brown TODAY

Cancelled his contract with Leroy
Williams, the colored rider.
Mansard has been repurchased by
J. o. and 6. II. Keene from DR.. II. e.
Rowell who paid the Keenes $500 for
the Florist gelding several weeks ago.
Rowell won a couple OF races with the
horse and sold him back to his former
owners for about what they had let
him go for. Jack Keene has a strong
regard for Mansard and regretted hav-
ing parted with him so much that he
jumped at the chance TO get him back.

STOP LUMBER SHIPMENTS.
Northern Pacific Action Over Rates
May Be Followed by Other Roads.

BELLINGHAM, Wash. November l.
No more lumber shipments will be re-
ceiyed by the Northern Pacific railway
in the northwest until further notice. This
is the order sent out to all agents of the
company last night. This move of The
Northern Pacific is exp led to be fol-
lowed by all the railroads affected b. the
injunction issued by the f dera. court at
Seattle, Thursday night, making It COM
pulsory the part of the railroads to
charge the cd rate of 40 cents lumber
shipments from termina! points The
Pac!nc coast.
The roads claim they would be taking
too great a risk TO allow the excess freight
TO accumulate until final decision on the
rate IS made, as they say that litigation
will ensue before the matter is sett.ed
and many of the lumber firms may have
gone out of the business.
Another contingency the railroads have
to face is the law providing that al "a ties
must be published and posted AT east
thirty days before they become effective.
so that III case they decided TO so back TO
the cd rates they cannot do II now with
out the thirty days notice.

THE vLADIvosToK OUTBREAK.
Official Report of Recent Mutiny OF
Sailors.

ST. PETERSBURG, November l.-Ac-
cording to the official report of the recent
mutinous outbreak of sailors at Fladi-
yostok. the crews of three torpedo boat
destroyers-the Skory, Serdity and Ire
votschny- mutinied, hosted the red flag
and shelled the port, doing considerable
damage to buildings and killing some
soldiers and civilians The Skory, on
board of which were three revolutionary
agitators. including one woman, took the
lead in the mutiny, the crew rising at
the instance of the agitators, killing the
commander of the boat and WoundinS
the other officers, who we're overpowered
and confined below decks.
The fire of the reh slIious torpedo boat
destroyers was answered by the batteries
ashore and from the gunboat Mandjour
and the torpedo boat destroyers Grosovy,
Smelly and others.
They surrounded the Skory and poured
a raking fire into her, which battered
her to pieces. exploded her two boilers and
caused fire to break out on board. Nearly
all the mutneers of the Skory were killed
on the vessel. The three or four sur
vivors threw themselves into the sea.
The mutiny on board the Trevotschny
was quelled by her own crew after six
of the mutineers had been killed and six
wounded.
Gen Count Unterberger. commanding
the military district at the Amur, has
arrived at Vladivostok and assumed
charge of the situation.
The United States embassy here today
received a dispatch from the consul at
Vladivostok saying that the American
who was wounded during the lombard
ment of Fladivostok by the mutinous tor
pedo boat destroyers is Harry Nietert. an
employe of the Pacific Commercial Com
pany, whose building was struck by .
shell.
