CONTEND FOR BIG STAKES

NEW YORK, July 12.-Great Sec
tional interest has been aroused over
the two biggest stakes left for the
summer racing on the local tracks by
the appearance of exceptionally strong
western, southern and Canadian con-
tenders.
Especially is this true in the $4,000
Lawrence Realization stakes, to be run
at Sheepshead Bay tomorrow, and
which will close the season there.
Besides the ~faVorite Hildreth ana
Keene entries, the public will see the
winners of the Latonia and Canadian
Derbies lined up for the start. These
four entries have ELECTED much COM
ment, and among sporting men their
support seems to be sectional, accord
ing to the part of the country from
which their supporters come.
The same horses are scheduled to
meet again i'm the Empire City handi-
cap at Yonkers, and these two races,
representing as they do various local
tiles and different breeding conditions.
are considered as having a beneficial
effect on the racing situation in the
east.

NEWS FROM REpLANps

REDLANDS, July 12.-Orange ship
ments in the Redlands district last
week totaled twenty-one cars, all but
two going over the Santa Fe because of
the continued car shortage on the
Southern Pacific. Packers on the latter
road were not able to get a refrigerator
car during the week because of the de-
mand for the cars for cantaloupe and
deciduous fruit shipments that are
perishable, and which therefore are
given preference over oranges by the
Pacific Fruit Express. Only two cars
of fruit went out over the road during
the week, and these were in cars
donated by the Santa Fe railroad
to help packers who had fruit that
needed moving. 1t is expected that re-
lief from the shortage will come soon,
though it is causing no serious damage,
because the fruit will remain on the
trees several months If necessary.
Two Redlands young women last
night chastised a young man they ac-
cused of making an insulting remark
to them by giving him a beating with
a buggy whip, one Of the girls keeping
him from running away by holding a
revolver at his face while the other laid
on the blows.
Miss Hester Smith became the bride
of Charles Black today in a ceremony

is talk of starting a movement for a
winter league to consist of some of the
fastest semi-professional clubs in the
south. The Maiers, McCormicks, San
Diego Santa Ana, Pasadena, San Ber-

teams are considered possible entrants.

land American league team, Is eX-
pected to return to Southern California

candidates for president. Lelande is
the strongly favored, but should he
decline Doyle will be asked to accept
Notices will be sent out to the Vari-
Gus managers in the course of a few
