10 ADDITIONAL NEWS OF SPORTS EVENTS TAWASENTHA RUNS DISGRACEFUL RACE IN OPENER Failure of Favorite Piloted by Notter Will Be Investigated by Emeryville Stewards J. R. Jeffery Contenders at short odds monopolized the spoils at Emeryville yesterday, and while there were several disappoint ments, the afternoon's -results were in the main wonderfully formful, consider ing that track conditions were bad. Colonel Jack and Mitre scored as fa vories. and the remaining four winners were second choices, all well supported. Tawasentha's failure to finish in the money while running as the favorite of the opening race was the most un satisfactory happening of the day. Tawasentha ran a disgracefully bad race in going for whicn she is sup jiosed to have a decided preference, and The public lost thousands of dollars on he r. .She was sadly deficient in the speed which she ordinarily possessed. :< nd finished far back in the ruck. Jockey Joe Notter had the mount. The stew ards will institute an inquiry into the race today to determine the responsi : lilitv for the mare's wretched showing. AVliiie no official intimation has been kiven to that effect. It is learned from reliable sources that the official patience has been strained to the breaking point by Notters frequent failures with fa vorites. ULBBLING WATER'S VICTOnV Molera & Joseph's filly Bubblliig AVater showed high class in taking the measure of F. A. Forsythe's crack 3 year old High Private in the linal race of the day. High Private was pvncrally looked upon as such a good thing that there was a scramble to get ,'own on him at 3 to 5. Bubbling Water was second choice at 12 to 5. The lat ter was handicapped by an inside po sition at the post, and to extricate her lrom the deep going that prevailed along the rail, Jockey Keogh had to lake back pff the pace and go to the outside, which he did very skilfully f oon after the start. Showing the same pameness that had characterized her previous starts, she ran over the lead ers in the stretch to win by herself, liish Private measured strides with her tluring the greater part of the stretch • Irive, but weakened badly at the very «".xl. Apto Oro ran a smart race and iinlshed a creditable third. The AlcGibben handicap, an affair at a mile and a sixteenh, proved little more than- a gallop for Colonel Jack, the favorite. Jockey Keogh let the liorse make the pace under restraint in the early stages, and moved away from his Held at will, to win by as far as he pleased. Sewell was the runner lip for nearly six furlongs and then fell back hopelessly beaten. Xadzu, overlaid at 8 to 1 and never far from the pace, found it easy to place, and Clamor, one of the Keene entry, came from a poor last in the early part of the contest to take third money. Jockey \_pton was unequal to the task of handling Red Leaf, the other starter in the Keene colors. TO3I SHAW SPREADEACLES FIELD Tom Shaw won the opening sprint in a gallop, spreadeagling his field frpm the beginning. Dargln, a long shot which Jockey Gilbert succeeded in get ting away to better advantage than other boys had, was a forward con tuid^r all the way and outlasted the stoutly closing Duke of Orleans for place by a head. Jockey Notter succeeded in beating the gate with Coppertown in the 2 year old race, and the Stover youngster had the speed to hold his advantage to the end. nothing being able to get close to Dim at any stage. Rezon, the favorite, figured in a bumping match with Fire, another of the choices, through the stretch, but got clear at the end and boat the Milden colt for second money. None of the other contenders ever had a. look in. Standover was never headed in the third. Jockey W. Mclntyre rating him nicely in front. The 12 to 1 chance, JJerdom, in forward contention through out, outlasted the favorite, St. Avon, for j.lare by the scantest of margins. Mat tie Mack, well backed as a long shot, \u25a0was in closest pursuit of the winner to the last turn, where she stopped badly. CLOSE CALL, FOB 3IITRE The backers of Mitre, winner of the fifth, were given a big scare when Jockey Carroll went to. sleep a few yards from the finish and almost lost the race to the stoutly coming long fhot Prince of Orange. Carroll came out of his trance just In time to es «-ar>e defeat. His mount had come from . l»ohind gradually and was breezing • nlong in front, after having taken the l^ad at the paddock, when Carroll al 3nost made a mess of it. Mitre got go jng again just in time to beat the long phot a head. Sainesaw, heavily backed, finished a close third and might- have \u25a0won but for costly interference in the stretch. .% >\ Gossip of the Track A letter reeolyed yesterday by a local turf nian from W. 11. Kraft, oue of the prime movers li! the project for the establishment of a. racing «-ir<-uit in Mexico briujrs the Information that j.-rmind will be broken during the coming month m "Juarez, just across the international boundary I'fjin El Paso, for the first of the modern racing lil^nte that the recently organized Mexican J«H.liPy club will establish under the conr-es- M'<ni¥ granted by the Mexican goTernment. The )«'ttcr also makes the announcement that Algeron I'aingwnold, assistant secretary of the New I'ork jockey club, will be secretary of the Mexl rr.n organization. Matt J. Winn, the general pcperintcndent of the \u25a0 enterprise, who is on the pround. announces that five tracks will be con structed as follows: At Pueblo.' oo miles south of the City of Mexico; at Monterey, 200 miles from San Antonio, Tex.; at Juarez, opposite Xl Paso; at Guadalajara, a mining city In fi-jutliern Mexico, and at the City of Mexico Itself. The cite for the plant In the City of Mexico -has been selected and the government in granting a concession stipulates that the trark must represent an outlay of SUOQ.OOO: also ti.«t the Jusrex track must cost at least $200, ttjo. and that both plants must be ready for r«<-iag next December. This probably means that the Mexican-American racing season will bfSta in December of this year and end In March, 1910. There will be, racing, it la Bald, In the City of Mexico thre* day* a week Sat urday. Sunday and Monday. The Mexican gor ernuient has airreed to set aside $23,000 a year for 20 years for the running of the Mexican Derby. In the City of Mexico there are more than 500.000 residents; while Puebla, Monterey and Guadalajara can each boast of 100.000. JuaroK, with El Paso to draw from, can count on .">0.<(00 more. Juarez will be more of an American racetrack then any of the others. Jockey Keogh. who Is riding In better form than erer before in his career, put over two winners yesterday, and, wita a mount In every r«c-o. was not out of the money during- the nftornoon.

Freeman. * - a well known mo torist of Fallon, Nev., who arrived In the city yester day. "If we only no.v a vivo mauer of 8 to 10 inches of snow to go through, we would say that we had fine winter touring," said the sagebrush motorist, "but we have not. -The best of our roads are now covered with at least six inches of mud, and from one to two feet of snow. My 1907 Thomas roadster plows up the snow on each side of- the road, no mat ter how deep it is. I have never yet been stalled, and the snow that I have traveled'over every day i 3 so deep that the average motorist would not at tempt it. The automobilists in this state can tell about their terrible trips, but they do not really (know what mo toring in, winter is like, Let them come up to our state and follow me on roads where the snow is banked to Che hubs and plenty of mud underneath. I have made numerous trips from Fallon to Reno. Sacramento and Lake Tahoe. during which I have given my pld car probably, the most severe test ever accorded an automobile, and it is still running, fine." Freeman, who Is one of the best known automobile . enthusiasts in the state, has driven one of th© 70 horse power ;Thomaa runabouts more than a year and probably has toured more mileage than any, other motorist on the coast.

H. . Martin, one of the traveling salesmen for the Studebaker Brothers company of Cali fornia, returned to this - city yester day, after several .. \u25a0\u25a0\u25a0-\u25a0\u25a0 days* driving-over the roads in the north of the bay coun ties. Martin, who has been using a Studebaker suburban, says the roads are in "the. worst shape for many years, and attributes the conditions to the recent downpours. Between St. Helena and Crystal Springs Martin says the roads are covered with three feet of. water In many places, making ; them impassable. While in that region a few days ago Martin encountered another automobile driver, who was hurrying to Crystal Springs. from St. Helena, where he was to be. at the bedside of his daughter, who. was in a precarious condition. When .within a few miles of Crystal Springs : the unfortunate driver was forced to, give, up his mission and seek another means of getting to his daugh ter, which delayed him fully two days.
