nouncement Of the running of the
Pimlico Preakness over the public adj

cheering as the announcer called their
positions at each turn.

the Eastern invasion early next week,

Grand defeated Eauipoise in the Ken
lucky Jockey Club Stakes at the Downs
last year and as result holds the
track record for q mile in addition to
an American record for tWo-year-olds,
1885. Walter j. Salmon's Ladder, which
finished third, was not conceded much
of chance In the derby by the dope
ster, but his surprising qualities re-
vealed today show he must be con-
sidered a contender.
Here the Eastern contingent will join
the derby eligibleS which have been
training in Kentucky. OF these, Z. =.
Meuller's Pittsburgher has the best
three-year-old record, having won two

TROOPS CALLED
TO GUARD IOWA
CATTLE TESTS
Violence Averted as 500
Farmers Gather to Offer
Passive War

By United Press
BURLINGTON, Ia, Oct. 22.-loWa
farmers and Iowa soldiers rallied
today at two camps in preparation
for a cattle testing war" that
promised to be one of the most I'M
usual conflicts" on record.
The two ercampments were only
a few miles apart, one at the county
Playground, and the other on the
farm of Jake Everstman, leader
among the farmers, WHO rebelled
against the states new method Of
testing cattle for tuberculosis.
The farmers, at first ready to fight,
decided today that discretion is the
better part of valor and voted to
offer only passive resistance to the
testing. The vote came after meet
ing that lasted most of the night
and during which farm leaders
counseled against using force to
keep national guardsmen and vet
erinarians at bay.
The army of farmers began to
gather when word spread that state
veterinarians would visit Everst-
mans farm this week and test his
cattle whether he liked it or not.
Like other farmers, Everstman pro-
tested against the tests because he
believes they are injurious to the
cattle.
All day Wednesday automobiles
streanled to the Everstman farm.
Parking space was furnished in the
big front yard and nearby fields.
Most of the farmers came expecting
an immediate engagement"
When it was learned the veterina-
rians did not intend to visit the
farm before Friday, a problem
arose. Everstman did not have
enough food at the farm to feed all
his visitors.
So the farmers swarmed into
Burlington, purchased large guam
titles of supplies and requested mer-
chants not to sell anything to the
soldiers when they arrived.
Meanwhile, officials at Des
MQines heard of the defensive
moves being made at Everstman's
and called out the national. guard
to protect the veterinarians. They
had not forgotten the time several
