LANlus, AN OUTSIDER,
WINS FROM EAVORITE

New York. May 22.-Over a sloppy
track on which drizzling rain fell all
the afternoon, G. ID. Widener's four
year old chestnut gelding Lanius won
the Metropolitan Handicap at one mile
at Belmont Park today. This event
was the feature Of the Westchester
Racing associations opening day of
the season.
Lanius was an outsider in the bet
ting, the favorite being J. E. Widener's
Naturalist, which romped home an
easy winner of six furlong high
weight handicap at the Jamaica course
yesterday, but finished only in fifth
place in today's contest.
There were seven starters. The
lightTeighted Routledge was first to
show in front with Naturalist almost
on even terms and Flags close up on
the inside. Nearing the first turn,
RoutledSe dropped back and Flags took
the lead from Naturalist as they turn
ed out of the back stretch. Flags led
TO the turn into the stretch. where
Lanius, nicely handled by Jockey Loft
tus, jumped into the lead and, full of
running, shook off a bold challenge by
Flags at the eighth pole to win by two
lengths.
Flags was a like distance in front OF
Star Master, which finished third after
brilliant stretch run Foreground
outgamed Naturalist, which tired after
reaching the head of the stretch. Ruot-
ledge finished sixth. half a length in
front of Papp, which sulked and fin
ished a disappointing last The win
ner's time was AS 2-5, and his owners
share of the cash prize was $3.50.

be a great thing for the public There
is no reason why professional sport
shouldn't be so organized. Professional
baseball long ago saw that need, and
has more than made good. It's up to
those backing pugilism and wrestling
TO bring about similar result, else the
game will grow less and less stable,
especially when the saloon begins SELL
ing ice cream and other soft stuff.
Were pugilism and wrestling so or
ganfzed these sports would soon enjoy
more popularity and l dobt if. in the
end, men like Willard and Dempsey
would have an earning capacity great
er than presidents, premiers, solid citi-
zens like college presidents and other
learned men who really do great deal
of good.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET WAS QUIET

New York, May 22.-For the first
time in several weeks, trading on the
stock exchange today was marked by
an absence of excitement and violent
fluctuations. Dealings were compar
atively moderate, falling considerably
under the heavy daily totals of last
week
The bond market participated to an
unusual extent in the days less spec
issues, notably low priced specula
tive rails and several of the foreign
fiotations denoting a confident in
quiry.
In financial quarters the one week
extension of time granted to the Ger
man peace delegation was the subject
of general discussion, but that de-
velopment evidently exerted little in
fluence as market factor.
Shippings were again an uncertain
quantity, mature consideration of the
details of the proposed Mercantile
Marine deal causing a divergence of
opinion and resulting in variable re-
actions toward the end of the ses-
sion.
Steels, especially the independent
division, were active and strong at
gains of one to six points their adj
vance being accelerated by reports
that the government contemplate large
orders for rails and equipment.
Oils were the mainstay of the early
and intermediate periods, rising two
to almost four points and motors were
responsive to better trade conditions,
though easing later on heaviness of
allied specialties, such as rubber is
sues.
Metals and utilities made pro-
nounced Roadway, the former being
featured by National Lead and L. S.
Smelling and the latter by express
shares, American, Adams and Wells

rails, tobaccos and feathers were ir-

shares.

ARE CAUGHT IN SNOW
 STORM IN MOUNTAINS

To be caught in a heavy snowstorm crossing the Sierra Nevada mountains in winter is a serious thing. That was he plight of A. II. Patterson, of Stockton. Cal, who with three others drove from Stockton to Smith valley, Nevada, and return, where they re- gently went to file claims on some desert land.
 Patterson is the millionaire sports man who has made many notable drives in Hudson super-six On this last trip they had to fight their way against heavy odds which threatened every minute 10 stall their ear in the high mountains, and snow it in for the balance of the winter.
 In crossing the Nevada they fought their way against heavy snowstorms and were compelled to make numerous Getours because of washed out bridges. At one point they were unable to ob- tain gasoline but continued the trip on kerosine which they obtained from two lanterns found in a road side shack
 On the return trip the weather con ditions were even worse. the snow having piled up across the trails in
 
 which is 1900 feet in altitude.
 Writing to Cal Messner, the Hudson distributor in Arizona Patterson said:
 As the storm was increasing in severity l realized that if we did not get out of Lake Valley immediately, we would be hung up there for the winter. Right in front Of us was the terrific climb known as Echo Grade" lt was two miles to the top and it took us three hours and a quarter to make it fighting through snow ranging from li to 24 inches in depth. The way our Super-six bucked the drifts was a revelation to everyone in the party. We feel that we owe our lives to the stamina and power of the Hudson. Sui flee it 10 say that we got through all right and our wives were mighty glad to sec us roll safely into Stockton"
