Injured i'm Collision

PHILADELPHIA. juno 16.-J. Ber-
ems Waters, playing No. for the
Rumson Polo Club in its losing fight
with the Bryn Mawr Freebooters at the
Philadelphia Country Club to-day, was
seriously injured in the seventh period
when he crashed into a goal post, his
mount going at full gallop. He landed
on his right shoulder, and it is feared
he broke his collar bone.
The Bryn Mawr Freebooters won the
contest 9% goals to 6, the game, which
was the second in the tournament for
the Temora cups, being played to the
finish with G.'B. Fletcher taking Wa

Light Workouts Are
Given Yale Oarsmen

GALES FERRY, Conn, June 16--
This was described as "blue Mon
day" in the Yale quarters because of
the seeming listlessness of the oars
men after their hard row Of Satur-
day. The crews could not put up the
stroke in their morning practice.
The freshmen and second varsity
went out together and had row over
the half-mile course, in which the lat
ter won by a half length in $3.50. The
race was against the tide. The varsity
eight went out later and had paddle
of mile upstream and a mile down
stream at an easy stroke.

LOTUS Pilots
Danlrosch to
Prize i'm Stake
Premier Jockeys Mount the
Only Favorite to Reward
Backers at Jamaica Track
By W. 7. Macbeth


"nen Johnny Lotus romped home
an easy winner with Commodore ]. K.
L. Koss's six-year-old horse, Damrosch,
IN the Garden City Selling Stakes, the
feature event Of the card ct Jamaica
yesterday, he gave the big crowd about
us only chance of the afternoon to
exercise the old vocal chords.
Lotus is by far the most popular
boy IN silks and is always sure of a
good hand, especially in the stake
races, which he invariably wins if he
mas any sort of mount. But his vic
tory yesterday was an OCCASION in a
day otherwise dark and drear for the
talent. Damrosch was the only win
nlng favorite of the day.
good horse and Lotus are hard
combination to beat, it has been init
mated in these columns time upon
time. The public now appears to be
convinced of that fact For it was the
great play upon Loftus's mount, which
did not open favorite, which sent him
TO the barrier one of the most heavily
backed hopes of the entire Eastern rae
ing season to date. F. Housmans Fred
erlck the Great, which opened favorite
at 2 "a to l, went begging, while Dam
rosch was hammered from a to down
to 13 to g.
Shows Clever Horsemanship
Though he had drawn second position
from the rail, Damrosch was sent to
the extreme outside of the barrier, for
he is kicking horse.
Johnny took good care to get awav
out where there could be no interfer-
ence from the pack, and when the web
blng sprung he was strictly on the Job.
He just lifted that six-year-old horse
right up and planted him in front in
the early sprint, picking his way care
fully, so that he could select the spot
desired before the first turn.
He elected to lay in behind the favor
itc, Frederick the Great. He carried
this one along SO fast that he broke
Frederick's heart before the end of
the backstretch. He went out and got
the favorite when he felt ready around
the home turn, and put him away In
jig time. From there home it was Just
a romp for Damrosch, which was pulled
up into a hand gallop through the last
sixteenth.
Hot Favorite Defeated
The day of disasters was quickly
organized. Heydey, the outsider,
trimmed Oceanna, the hot favorite in
the opening fve-furlong sprint. Worse
and more of it, it was a two-horse race
W. r. Goes Terentia, favorite of the
second, couldn't work up enough speed
to beat a cab horse, while Ophelia, the
second choice, proved clearly that six
furlongs is too far for her. Alphee,
Is to l shot, made a runaway of it,
while Lotus, with My Friend, another
outsider, copped second money from
the tired Ophela.
Another 10 to 1 winner dropped out
of the clouds in Jack Stuart in the
fifth at a mile and a sixteenth.
M. Kornblum's Ira Wilson, as good
as 20 to I, won the last race by
whisker from Romany 1t was thrill
ing finish in which Schuttinger outrode

these present conditions gives any
who would take the advantage IL he
could an excellent chance and it
is deplorable for it leads to the ma
jority taking at first the slightest OF
advantage, but finally the conscience
becomes commercially smeared or
scared and that one can eventually
adopt the system or theory that a
thing is really worth what it will
bring on the market or you can
through trickery or strategy get for
it, l. e., pair of shoes is actually
worth $1,000 per pair, etc. Well l
believe there are some few examples
which might be cited wherein the un-
reasonable becomes seemingly rea-
sonable but the buying public is alrea-
dy educated as to some commodities
and wont pay $50 per pair for shoes.
They might pay 500 per carat, or
even more, for diamonds, but there
are some things that will never be

REGULAR LINES
 WILL HANDLE
 R. R. TRAFFIC
Freight and Passengers For Alaska Railroad Wilt Go via Alaska and Pa-
 Cific Steamers

Gov. Thomas Riggs Jr. received confirmation today of the news that the Alaska Engineering Commission has contracted with the Alaska Steamship Company and the Pacific Coast Company for the transportation of all the freight and passengers for the Alaska railroad at rates which are said to be satisfactory to all par ties to the contracts.
 These contracts are largely the re suit of efforts of Gov. Riggs and the Territorial Shipping Board. The Alaska Engineering Commission had intended to charter or purchase one or more vessels for this work, Gov Riggs and the Territorial Shipping Board held that this business should go to the regular established lines and thus give them business that would help them meet their operat- ing expenses and induce them to put more vessels on the Alaska routes instead of compelling those engaged in business to bear all the costs of operating the steamship companies. Managers of the transportation com panfes have informed Gov. Riggs that they would put more vessels on the run to Alaska if they got these con- tracts.

AMERICAN TEAMS
 ENTERED FOR GAMES

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Cal. Dec. 30.-The American teams en- tered in the Olympic games at Ant. werp in 1920 will have a much harder road to travel in all branches of sport than they did at the Inter-Allied games, according to H. Wiffred Nal oney, who acted as coach and trainer for the American track and field team at the Inter-Allied games.
 "The nations competing will have had time to gather together their best athletic blood that was fortunate enough to come through the great war;" said Maloney in review of the prospects at the games. Much young talent will have been unearth- ed and developed--quite little of it by American coaches who stayed in Europe to assist different nations in preparing for the 1920 Olympic games.
 Sweden. Norway, Denmark anG Finland were not hit by the war, that is, from an athletic standpoint, and will be the biggest contenders for  athletic supremacy. England, France, and the British colonies will have to be reckoned with, the latter chiefly with individual stars, especially in track and field events. France, Bel gium and Italy will no doubt excel in team competition. such as fencing, and probably horsemanship: England and France. in rugby and succer foot ball: Australia and New Zealand, in rowing; America, in rife and pistol competition, also in swimming.
 America will. of course. again ex- eel in track and field eyents-nor eX cepting Sweden or Finland. which will probably be close second. At the last Olympic Games, Finland took 8 points in track and field events. America has a huge army of track and field athletes to choose from, many of whom did not take part in the recent Inter-Allied games.

Sidney Drake is President of the new company. The new equipment of the mill will include a 60-ton ball mill The five stamps that are now in use will be used as primary crushers, the operation to be completed by the crusher
 The mine was originally discovered by the Duncan brothers in 1908. They sunk a shaft down a hundred feet A couple of years later M. K. Rogers took over the property and sunk the shaft to the 200 foot level, and completed about 500 feet of drift. ing. He alao constructed the present mill and took $37OOO worth of bull lion out of it. Mir Reese took a lease on the property in 1913 and in the course of a year took out $24570. In all 5000 tons of ore was put through the mill, 5000 by Rogers and 1000 by Reese. since 1913. J. H. Rogers, a brother of M. K. Rog- CTS has mined out about 1900 tons and recovered over $2O,000. The total output Of the mine. less than 1000 tons, has returned gross re- ceipt of about $8l,510.
