Most of the contestants were thrown and spilled all over the arena. The horses did not care where they threw their riders, but seemed to prefer a suitable level spot so they could waits over them afterwards. Wild Horse Race Kicitliijj. In the wild horse race, the untamed brutes were roped In a corral and hauled Into the arena. There each .rider was allowed a helper who held the horse. The horse was first blind folded and hobbled. Then the gun was fired. After that, with the helper still holding the wild horse, the rider had to saddle and ride once around the arena. Three riders managed to get around. The balance were scattered over the track. The wildest horses rolled over some of their would-be tamers: they put others out with well-placed kicks, while still others but they were few retired from the contest when they saw how things were going. There were bucking horses going in every direction. It required half an hour for the first horse to make the circuit. At that time some of the others were still bucking within 60 yards of the start. The thousands of spectators were kept In an uproar throughout the afternoon and never left their seats un til the performance closed at dark, with one event left over for tomorrow.

PINGHQT PLEADS N G W FDR HARMONY Deposed Forester Asks Con servationists and All Others to Combine. FIGHT COMMON ENEMY, CRY Man In Politics to Feather Own t" Is Bitter Antagonist and Scattering of Power Harmful, Told Irrigation Congress. Pl'EBLO. Colo., Sept. 29. Oifford Plnchot. wildly cheered, today pleaded for harmony between conservationist states rights men and "Nationalists" In his address before the National irri gation Congress In session here. Only bv working together, he declared. could the opponents of all conservation be fought successfully, and natural resources be kept in possession of the neoole. "There is one enemy we all have to fight," he said. "It Is the man In pol itics to feather his own nest. Any scattering of our power, therefore, is harmful, so I make this plea: Do what you can to get the state and Nation together to fight the common enemy and stop any attempt to excite antag onism between the two, thereby creat ing a gap tn which the enemies of both will best flourish. Last Year Turning Point. "The last year has been the turn ing point, and the people realize that while we hove a right and a duty to use all we need of minerals, forests, lands and waters, behind and above all Is the equal or stronger duty to admin ister our birthright so that we may hand It down to future generations, a Nation richer, stronger and purer than it Is today." ' Mr. Plnchnt declared the loudest cries against his policies and the most bitter fight against It. have come from those Individuals and organizations who see their individual profits are in danger. "Any fight of this kind must have a focal point. Any great contest always centers around a few men and organi zations. "The basic principle of this fight of yours and mine is that it is better to help the small man making a living than to help the big man making a profit, and so Indorse the idea that the natural resources do not belong to. a few rich men, mainly in Wall Street, but they belong and must be kept, in the possession of the people. How Trouble Arose. "I believe- that the contest of states rights and Federal, so prominently be fore this Congress, would never have arisen if the Government had not un dertaken to control some of the special interests, which believed they could all control by taking refuge behind the states. "My view is this there are certain things In which the state is obviously Incapable of asserting as useful power, as useful control, as the National Gov ernment. All those the Government should control. There are many cases In which the protection of peoples' rights 'belongs to the state, and In such cases the state should have full swing. In both cases I deprecate all attempts to raise this quarrel, because In the muddy water there is a refuge for the man who wants to escape all control. 1 believe In co-operation be tween the states and the Nation." Tribute Paid Roosevelt. C. E. Balrelch. of Pueblo, presented to Mr. Plnchot as trustee a gnarled "big stick." cut from the forests of Oolorado. studded with Colorado gems and precious met a lei with the injunction to deliver It to "Theodore Roosevelt, the man who is wise and strong enough to ure It im partially for the benefit of all. and the only man strong enough and gentle enough to use the big stick as a shep herd's crook." Colorado's controversy with New MERCHANDISE PURCHASED TODAY CHARGED ON OCTOBER ACCOUNT. Mexico and Texas over state and Fed eral control of watern of the Rio Grande, was aired on the floor of the Congress, but that body reserved final Judgment until tomorrow. Action by the resolutions' committee Indicates that the Congress will indorse Federal control,- though assurance was given tonight that Colorado will present a minority report in relation' to this feature. . Texan Hurls Defy. When the Rio Grande controversy was at its height, Zack Cobb, of Texas, de clared: Theodore Roosevelt established the principle of Federal control of interstate waters: TV. J: Bryan, from this plat form, upheld the doctrine, and no man can pull down the flag." The California clash of yesterday re appeared today in a brief tilt between F. C. Finkle and Francis Cuttelle. Mr. Finkle admitted that he Is consulting engineer for a large power company but said that he expressed only hla personal iewa in dissenting on the matter of Federal control. Mr. Cuttelle replied that he not only represented nis own but spoke for 5000 fruitgrowers in South ern California. T.iM-rami were rend from the state engineer and conservation commission of Nebraska Indorsing Federal control or Hugh McKenzie, Australian Minister of Public Lands, speaking on "Irrigation Development In Victoria," declared his country was looking toward America for the methods by which It hoped to accom plish needed industrial development. American farmers and American tools would be of mutual advantage If Aus tralia could secure the same, he said. Mr. MoKenzle expressed regret that there are not more facilities for com merce between Australia and the United States. Heney Hits Land Laws. Francis J. Heney gave voice to a senti ment which met with applause when he said today in his address: All the present land laws are Ineffective In preventing corporation theft of natural resources and should be repealed. Strong Federal control of nil, natural gas. water power and coal Is necessary, for these are the. energy-producing; agencies without which corporations cannot oppress the people. "The Water Need of 'Plants" was the Jubject of the address by N. Kaumanns. mperlal German Special Commissioner. Garfield Has $3200 Fire. GARFIELD. Wash., Sept 39. Spe cial.)

ASIATIC FLEET IS READY Preparations Being Made to Handle Immediate Outbreak Lives? of v Foreigners Are In Jeopardy. Boxer Trouble Paralleled. WASHINGTON, Sept. 29. China is de clared to be on the verge of another up heaval similar to the Boxer uprising and the lives of foreigners are In jeop ardy. Recent advices from Government officials in China express tire belief that an outbreak at any time would not sur prise thfm. The State Department has Instructed officials to maintain . a close watch on International conditions. All through the Summer months there have been mutterlngs of discontent In some of the Chinese provinces, due to the rice famine, dynastic differences and dis satisfaction over acts of the Pekln gov ernment as to foreign Investments In China. Good harvests mitigated, to some ex tent, the gravity of the situation, but there la still a general feeling of unrest, according to personal letters received here from men on duty In that quarter. The army and navy are prepared for any emergency, but . their readiness is solely a precautionary measure. It Is said, and should be taken as an indica tion of immediate danger. Authentic advices from those charged with keeping In touch with the condi tions Indicate that the only thing lack ing to parallel the present situation with the preceding Boxer troubles, which drew into China the American forces as well as those of other nations. Is the matter of organization and that it only needs a leader to do that. Every vessel In the Asiatic fleet, as well as the military forces at Manila, is prepared for instant action in the event of trouble breaking. United States Minister to China Cal houn, at Pekin. who last May reported to the State Department the generally disquieting anti-foreign and anti-dynas-tlc rumors, is keeping In close touch with the situation there, and the foreign Con suls at Nankin, early In the Summer, emphasized to the Viceroy the import ance of immediate protective measures.
