Harrigan -won the Centenario handi cap, the second big event of the Juarez races Sunday by defeating 'Meadow over Uhe mile course out of the shoot. Weight was the difference in this event, so nearly matched were the horses. Harrigan. had been given weight by both Meadow and Taboo, the winner of the opening handicap Thanksgiving. He was carrying 10S pounds on board, while Meadow sad dled 115 and Taboo 113. Jack Atkin, of whom much was expected, was bur dened with 127 and was never In the race, as he is not yet in condition. Harrigan went out In front and led all the way. Meadow took second from Lomond at the three-quarters and challenged in the stretch. It was a pretty exhibition coming home, but Harrigan was out for a winning and crossed the line a length and better to the good, with Meadow a second and Taboo third. Meadow's move was made at the Tight time, jockey Moles wornh holding her steady in her course until the straightaway, when Ihe gave her the reins and defied the wlnner Merely a Romp for Helen Scott. Helen Scott twostepped the first race to the music of the hand. It was a little Sunday afternoon romp for her and she made her barrier lead a 12 length stretch of landscape before the finish post was passed. Juarez -failed to show the class his backers wished, although he ran well in front of the other youngsters at the finish. Geht nicht was third, because there was none better and came on with a real show of speed. The rest ran. Benschoten sent Marian Casey against the rail at ithe stretch turn and captured first money by his daring. Marian got away in front, but was back in fournx place at the half and was beating only Ma nila at the three-quarters. Then the clever kid made his rail move and cut into second place "behind Flying PearL T&e Pearl Girl could not stand the strain of a driving finish to "beat Mar Ian Casey after she had set all the pace. .She was second and Periwinkle third. Trance Not Sleeping. Trance awoke at the barrier and "Went out in front at the half, taking Ihe third' race from Ocean Queen, wlho jnoved up strong at the finish and took second money. Angelus had plenty of early speed but was out at the finish for lack of campaigning in toils altitude. Kopek, a last season's winner would- not be denied in the fifth race. She was cut off soon after the start, came up and finished first ahead of a field of six by making a wide swing out the outside turn and outgaming Pedro for first. Pedro ran his race and was fairly beaten by Ko pek. Shelly was third ahead of Cross over and Gypsy King. Elder Wins Final Event. Elder took the final race of the day from Sir Barry, who gave away weight j to the winner in the five furlong dash. JMaer got away in tront, but was nosed out by Spooner, who could not hold the pace and dropped back to sixth place- It was Elder the remainder of the way with no serious opposition. The Summaries.

Charley Harvey, Moran's manager, said that he wanted to have Moran met Ad Wolgast ana was willing to wait until the champion was ready to fight, but he did not look with favor upon the terms that Wolgast dictated a guarantee of $12,000 and the right to name the referee. "It is ridiculous for "Wolgast to talk of naming the referee," said Harvey. "It would kill the fight at the start. ,If he has a right to a $12000 guarantee. Moran has a right to $15,000, as Moran is the greater drawing card now. The game is not in such shape now that guarantees of that kind can be given." RESULT OlFlpOOT- ' BALL THIS SEASON New York, N.

The run was etarted from, tae plant of the Baker Motor Vehicle Company at 7:30 a. m November 9, and the route chosen was over the roads of Cuyahoga county Just west of, and In cluding the suburbs of Cleveland. Al though Mr. Gruenfeldt was advised that the TJ. S. weather bureau of Cleveland, reported an official temperature of only 44 degrees Fahrenheit, and that the wind was blowing at the rate of twenty miles on liour, the intrepid engineer, with a grim smile, "started the juice" and beaded the car into the wind. The run was continued, without a single stop until S oclock In the even ing, when a five-minute stop was mad for lunch. Starting- the car again Mr. Gruenfeldt continued until 2:55 Thurs day morning, satisfied with the re sults obtained. The oar was driven back to the factory, a stop made while the nignt watchman was routed out and the car placed upon the floor un der its own power. Rain Siorra Breaks. The first 100 miles was recorded ai 3 oclock in the afternoon when the cai was easily doing fifteen miles per nous in a strong side wind. Two nunared miles was recorded at 11:20 oclock, when a rainstorm, which had threat ened all day, broke. At this time the car had made 211.5 miles- at an average speed of 13.2 miles per "hour. Tne last 44.5 miles were finished in the rain, drenching Mr. Gruenfeldt ana rencer ing the roads slippery and treacherous. To make matters worse the rront tire developed a slow puncture and gradu ally flattened, reducing the mileage of the car. This puncture was not re paired until after the run was com pleted. When the dash clock recorded 2:55 oclock, Thursday morning', and the odometer recorded 244.4 miles, weatner conditions became so disagreeanie utat Mr. Gruenfeldt decided to drive the car to the factory and enjoy a much deserved rest. "For the third time the Baker electric has broken the world's mileage record.." stated Mr. Gruenreidt when he had finished. "I am not only satisfied with the efficiency of the Edi son battery and the Baker frictlonless construction, but am ready at any time to drive against any electric automo bile made, my opponent to cover tne same course under the same conditions and with the same equipment."
