ALBANY, March 27.-All sorts of political
emotions have been invoked to-day in
legislative circles over the results of the
primaries in the boroughs of Manhattan,
The Bronx. Brooklyn, Queens and Rich
mond. The hardshell Democrats and
the hardshell Republicans have not cared

Most Of them have been triumphant over

Not so, however with Senator Stilwell

Lowest prices were registered in the morning, after which some slight light hardening was observed, but the outcome was relatively unimportant
 Less attention was devoted to polt- tics and more to crops and general trade conditions Continued sunny weather in the northwest is benef1ting all cereal groWths in that section, and the railroads are making ready to move the expected heavy tonnage Copper shares were once more under pressure by reason of the highly spec ulatiVe conditions now prevailing in the metal trade here and abroad

INTERNATIONAL LEAGUE STANDING.
Johnson UngpoIlsd by Success.

Walter Johnson, the greatest pitcher in the world today, and in the opinion of many critics, the g satest that the game ever saw. is one of those fortu- nate individuals absolutely unspOiled by success. You can never learn from Walters bearing that he is the king of all slabmen, for he has none of those idiosyncrasies that usually accompany the star athlete.
 The big SWede is pIAcid, modest and reserved. He is one of the hardest workers on the Washington club and, according to Manager Griffith, positive ly the easiest to handle. Somehow the big pitcher does not seem to think that because he is a wonder he is en- titled to put on airs. Like all really great athletes, he is trying all the time, no matter what the score, just as Ty Cobb, the Tigers star, always gives the club the best he has.
 Johnson keeps himself in perfect condition and he has no bad habits. He doesn't drink any intoxicants nor have the bright lights any attractions for him. From time to time he has been i'll with some minor ailments, but there never has been a day since he came into the league when he was out of the game through any fault of his own

SEVENTEEN FOOT RING.
Small Squared Circle for Johnson
 Flynn Bout.

Jack Johnson, after some objection, has agreed to the use of a 17-foot ring for the encounter between himself and Jim Flynn July 1.
 Johnson learned that the ring was under the regular size and objected on the ground that small ring was more suited to Hymns rough and tumble style of fighting than his own. He said that a scientific boxer like himself would be embarrassed without sufi- c1ent room to execute clever foot work
 Johnson's change of attitude came when he heard that Flynn had said that he could whip Johnson in a bar rel All the room I need to lick that upstart is a space the width of an electric light wire" he declared.

Turn the corners slowly. So many people seem to think the moment they get a car it is their solemn duty 10 see how fast they can go and how much the car will stand on every occasion. High speed is most disastrous on tires. That is so sensibly plain it needs no explanation. Then worst of all is the turning of corners rapidly when the very laws of nature throw the entire weight of the ear at accommodating mo- mentum on the outside and pulling sidewise at the walls of the tires. You might just as well put the tread of your tires against an emery wheel as to turn corners at a high rate of speed.
