BLACK BESS IS
WINNER OF RACE
OWNER AT WHEEL AS CAR
DASHES INTO PHOENIX
Crowds Gathered at Stretch as Ardu-
GUS Contest Over Desert from
Los Angeles Is Brought
to an End
Especial to The Herald.l

PHOENIX, Ariz., Nov. 9.-Watched
by crowds of thousands, who stood on
the streets for hours in anticipation
of it's arrival, BLACK Bess." the old
White steamer runabout, with it's own
er, f. C. Fenner at the Wheel arrived
here at 6:46 o'clock, Pacific coast time,
and won the race from Los Angeles
to Phoenix, establishing a record and
winning a silver trophy offered by the
Arizona Republican.
All afternoon crowds had watched the
bulletins and crowded around the head
quarters of the Maricopa Automobile
club, eager for news of the contest.
More enthusiasm has been shown over
the contest than any sporting event
ever pulled off in the territory.
Adams street was jammed full of
people for ten blocks. long before the
White arrived in sight. and the long
lines waited for the arrival of the third
car.
The Kisselkar was the second car to
arrive, reaching here at 7;41 o'clock,
but second place undoubtedly will go
to the Elmore, driven by A. j. Smith,
who arrived at 8:45 o'clock. The
Franklin rolled in at $3.50 o'clock and
lost the race by getting off the road
in the flats on the California side of
the river.
10 keep from IldklIlB HldlltIS WoA SVS
Hamlin and his crew went to sleep for
three or four hours until daylight, sac
rificing the lead of several hours th9y
had over some of the cars.
Until the official report of the check
ers at the river are received it will be
impossible to state officially which car
won, but President Bullard of the Mari
copa club has issued a statement CIV
ing it as his opinion. based on the
statements of the crews, the White
is first, the Elmore second, the Kissel-
kar third, and the Franklin fourth.
The race has proved to be the most
strenuous contest ever waged by mo-
torists, as it led over stretches of desert
where it is difficult to wax or drive
with wagons For many miles there
is no water and one of two springs IN
a hundred mile stretch is akali, and
the other ons is hot.
There is little semblance of road
in many places and trails lead the un-
familiar astray very easily. The signs
read to stay on the road as it is i'm
possible to pull vehicle through some
of the sand that extends on either side
Very little trouble was reported by
the crews who came in with the cars.
Fenner broke a spring near Quartzite
that required several minutes to fix,
but after looking it up and tying it
he made a high rate of speed for the
remainder of the way.

LONDON, Nov. 9.-Prime Minister
Herbert Asquith was the principal
speaker at the Guild Hall banquet to-
night, which marked the inauguration
of the new lord mayor of London, Sir
George Wyatt Truscott, and brought
to a fitting close the celebration of the
kings 9th birthday.
The prime minister devoted his OBJ
servations mainly to the European sit
uation.
After congratulating Turkey, in the
person of Turkish Ambassador Mu-
surus Pasha, on the success OF the
most amazing revolution in history, he
declared that, subject to the principle
that international treaties could not be
altered. except by the consent of all
the signatories, the British government
had no prejudice or preference in favor
of any particular settlement.
1t had never objected to direct regu-
lations between Austria and Bulgaria
and Turkey, always providing that
Turkey, as the most prejudiced, should
have a settlement consistent with her
honor and interests. and that the agree
ment must be countresigned by all par
ties to the Berlin treaty.
One Happy Result
One of the happiest results of the
Anglo-R Russian convention, he said,
was that both countries had been able
to approach the near eastern question
from the same viewpoint, and discuss
frankly and sympathetically the sud-
den crisis that had arisen.
His majesty's government considered
that Russia had behaved with the
greatest restraint under N4:ceedingly

policy of non-intervention in Persia.
