Adams, vice-president of the Postal Telegraph company, having been asked in regard to tha decision which the jmbllc rervh-e commission at Albany handed down yesterday afternoon In regard to the New York Telephone company (a Pell company) diverting business to tho Western Union and discriminating in tho service rendered to the Postal cs compared with the Western Union, said: "We, Of course, are gratified that tha public service commission has stooped this nhiiKA and has stopped It Bumuiarlly. Hereafter the Western Union will not b aide to gather in nil the floating telexiv.ph business by monopolizing ' Ihe word" '"telegram" as a call word over tho telet'hone. A very Importmt feature of the decision is that tho telephone c mpany Is ordered not to allow Its telephone operators to give uny advice to the public as to which telegraph company to patronise or designate or to direct which company shall have tho telegram. "We trust that now the Bell Tele phone companies will direct their oper ators to stop favoring the Western Union and diverting the Postal Tele graph business to the Western Union If It la not stopped we shall keep the fight going."

Eyton said: "If I were offered half the purse to referee that fight, I would not do it as long as a man of Jones' caliber was in terested. The sporting public knows my record. Jones does, too. He knows his meal ticket would have to obey the rules of boxing if I were in the ring." Eyton then .offered MeCarey a bit of advice, suggesting that he ''not allow Jones to dictate to him any more." Ho then declared Volgat to be the brains of the Jonos-Wolgast combination, and referred to Jones as "the champion's "messenger boy."

Oldfield Breaks Coast Record. 7 rully 8000 people, half of tne crowd which watched the automobile races at the Country clb track yesterday after noon, gasped in horror as they saw W. MrStaMt deliberately Turn "the aero plane in which he was making an exhi bition flight to the earth 60 feet below and a eigh of relief went up when it was found that he waa unhurt. The machine was badly wrecked but the engine was found to be intact. Stark had just risen from the ground and started to turn to the left when his engine began to miss. Seeing sev. eral automobiles In the path which prevented a safe landing, Stark took the only alternative left as the safest for himself and the spectators. Neither Stark nor thoee near the scene could explain ,hls escape except that tho fall of the machine threw the aviator from his seat before the ground was struck. Stark received a slight scratch car his lip, a bruise on his nose and lost a little skin from one knee. His trousers were torn and soiled by the dirt. Both planes of his machine, the running gear and the braces were twisted and torn to such an extent that considerable repairs will be necessary to put tha biplane In shape to fly again. The flight was announced to follow the races at once, but was delayed for some time owing to trouble with the carburetor and many of the spectators left. A new carburetor was adjusted and T. A. Berlin, Stark's partner, at tempted to fly. Finding he was having trouble, Stark took his place. He rose once but only for a few feet. The engine stltll bothered but Btark tried once more and the plane rose gracefully, heading west. Ha had Juat made the turn to the south when the accident happened. A flight had been scheduled by Chrls tofferson, the Vancouver, Wash., avi ator, who flew from tha Multnomah hotel, but, It is said, he could not come to an agreement with the management over finances and arrsngements ware mnde with Berlin and Stark for the flight. When the delay occurred the flight was called off for a time, but on Stark's assurance that he would fly as soon as he could get the engine to f?otng property the erowd waa asked to wait. Stark was to have circled the track three times. Oidfleld Btar Performer. Barney Oidfleld was the stsr perform er in the automobile races and In an exhibition mile against time with a flying start he brok.e the Pacific- coast record for a mile dirt track by covering the distance In 52 seconds. Oidfleld was accompanied by a passenger. The form er record of 62 2-5 seconds was held by Oldfield and was made at the Ascot track in Los Angeles two years sgo. Had it not been for th turn which caused the accident to Chris Dundee on Tuesday, when he crashed through the fence in the "Whistling Billy," Old- field's time might have been even bet ter, but as was the caae In all of yes terday's races he slowed up for this turn. Shortly before Oldflold's performance Teddy Tetzlaff covered the mile in R3 1-5 seconds and tlds fast time caused Oldfield to let his powerful Christie car out. Tetziuff was th star of the two big races. In the first of the two he had his team mates, Verbeck and Hill, pitted against him and the first three of the five miles were exciting. Teti laff began to draw away at the third mile and had euch a lead at the finish that he slowed his car considerably as he turned into the stretch that the fin ish might ho more exciting. Ills tlrriej for the five miles was B:l 2-6. All three cars were Flats. As though to show that he really could make fast time In the closing race Tetxlaff turned his 60 horsepower car loose and made the fastest time of the flay for five miles, making the drive in 4:39 1-B seconds. Helnemann in his Bens followed at a good distance, but Frit sen was completely outclassed. One of Prettiest Races. One of tho prettiest races of the day was between Barney Oldfield In his Christie car and Helnemann In his Ben. The race was scheduled for Oldfield against tha winner of a five mile race between Fritsch in a Clno and Helne mann In a Bens. Instead of five milea the heat was cut to three, which Helne mann won In 3:01. Oidfleld and Helne mann then completed the other two miles and Oldfield led by the length of his car. Through an error In announc ing the races the timekeepers failed to ttme the sconrt mile: Helnemann led at the finish of tha first mile, crossing the line In 68 2-5 seconds with Oldfield close behind and gaining. .As the two turned into the stretch on the seoond mile Oldfield opened the throttle of the Christie and the car leaped to the lead. The officials gave the estimated time for the race as 1:6S. Stung by the defeat which Helnemann had administered In the three mile race Fritsch challenged him to a special race of three miles. Fritsch led for the flrat mile, but as they crossed the line Helne mann made a great spurt and took the lead which he maintained. At the first i turn of the third mile at the west end of the track the spectators held their breaths, for with slightly diminished speed Helnemann started the circle and his heavy car began to skid and for a moment it appeared as though it would strike tha fence. Helnemann orossed tha line at the finish in 2:62 2-6, with Fritsch but a second and a fifth be hind. In a tire changing contest Tetzlaff and Verbeck with their mechanicians tied In 8 5 seconds. Later TeUlaff, with the aid of Hill, accomplished the change in en exhibition in 30 seconds. Verne Maskell on an Indian motor cycle twice defeated Gus Peppel on an tTxcelslor, making the 10 mile ride in 9 27 2-5 and breaking hla own track record made last Sunday by three fifths of a second, and In the five mile race by coming under the wire in 1:43 1-6. Chris Dundee, the racer who waa in jured Tuesday, is improving at the Good Samaritan hospital and the danger mtrk will soon be passed.
