Janisa Longboat, Winning Marathon, Shows Himself a World Beater—Time was Slow—Shrubb Got Big Lead, then Lost---Eastern Connecticut Baseball Meeting. New York, Feb. 5.—Maintaining an even, swinging stride, which rarely varied, Tom Longboat, the Onondaga Indian from Canada, won the indoor Maarahon race tonight at Madison ‘Square Garden, when victory seemed almost within the grasp of the plucky English champlion _runner, Alfred Shrubb, who collapsed in the 25th mile, leaving the Indian to finish alone. Longboat's time for the race was 2 hours 63 minutes 40 2-5 seconds. which is nearly eight minutes behind the rec- ord made by Dorando, the Italian, in his race with Johnny Haayes, the Olympic winner, last fall. The Indian finished in fine fettle and was in no wya distressed. Madison Square garden was jammed with people tonight, eager to see the indoor Marathon race between Alfred Shrubb, the champion English middle distance runner, and Tom Longboat, the Canadian Indlan runner, A large crowd gathered long before the doors of the big amphitheatre opened the way to the saucepan track, where the two contenders were to measure strides. The best time over the gar- den course was made by Dorando, the Italian, with a race with John Haves, the winner of the Olympic Marathon in London last Summer. Englishman a 7 to 5 Favorit: The Italian was afterward defeated in a Marathon contest at the garden by Longboat. Early arrivals at the course indulged in much discussion and speculation over the mrospective race. Shrubb ruled s favorite in the early wagers at 7 to 5. Trained to the ‘winute, Shrubb appeared in_ per- fect condition when he entered his dressing room at the garden. The Indian also made a good impression as_he donned his running attire. With both runners right as trivets and confident of victory, the specta- tors looked forward to the most snir- ited of any indoor Marathon. Shrubb's admirers spoke of the marvelous speed with whioh the English eovers distances up to fifteen miles and de clared that he would easily run the Indian off his feet. Friends of Long- boat argued that he could keep with- in distance of Shrubb early in the race and then successfully sprint in the last few mile There wa ssome delay in getting the race started, but at 918 p m. the two men were lined pp ‘s minute later they were sent y. ~ Shrubb immediately took the lead and, setting a fast pace, gradually increased the distance between himself and the In- alan. Shrubb Makes the Pact Fast. Shrubb’s tactics soon became plain. e quickened his pace after goine & p or two and though Longhoat ran with an easy stride it was evident the pace was too hot for him. When Shrubb finished the third lap, the In- dian was & third of a lap behind and from then to the end of the first mile, which Shorubb finished in four min- utes, 32 seconds, the Indian slowly but surely fell behind. At the end af the mile Longboat was three-quarters of a lap behind, and at the end of the next, or the eleventh lap, the Indian just ‘tralled in after the English run- ner. At the end of the second mile Shrubb was leading by nearly a la and a half. The time for tl miles das 10.-8 4-5. Shrubb’s running won him thi miration of the crowd frequentl pressed in cheers and shouts of en- couragement, But Longboat, with b gracefu] lope, had a host of friends, who did not seem to lose confidence ar the Englishman got & comfortable ead, Indian Backers Confident. “Shrubb_can never stand that gait to the ena!!” shouted one of the In- dian's backers, and it truly seemed as A Fine Assertment of ««o.

Shrubb was two and a half Japs ahead at this time, but it was noted that while he had gained two laps in the first three miles he had gained two laps in the first three miles he had adged only an additional half-lap in the next two miles. Shrubb Leads by "Half a M Shrubb's plan appeared to be to run a fast mile or two, during which he made decided gatins, and then to trot, apparently to reserve his wind and strength. His sprints always created an uproar in the crowd, the specta- tors cheering him' frantically. The Englishman gained another two and one-half laps in the second five miles and was five laps, or half a mile, ahead when the ten mies were Anish- ed. The time for the ten-mile mark was 67.32 2-5. Longboat's time in his race with Dorando was 58,67 1-5. Shrubb Running Strong at 15 Miles. Shrubb increased his lead to six laps at the 12th miles, but the Indian would not be worrled out of his long, swing- ing stride until near the 15th miles, when he picke dup about 50 yards. Shrubb, however, continued to open up the distance between himself and his competitor, and the 15th mile mark found him' 61-2 laps ahead. Shrubb’s time for the 15 miles was 1 hour 28 minutes 28 4-5 seconds. Shrubb’s running was a revelation to the spectators, who continually cheered the Englishman as he sped steadily around the track and drew further away f-om Longboat. The In- dlan tried vainiy to cut down this lead, but Shrubb showed no traces o fweari- ness and continued his fast pace. Un- able to keep up, Longboat dropped his sprint_and fell back to his old pace, with the result that Shrubb gained an additional lap, making seven laps in all at the 17th mile, Briton's Sprint Gains a Lap. During the running of the 19th and 20th miles Shrubb broke into a fine burst of speed, and though the Indian responded gamely, the Briton gained the eighth lap. Hls time for 20 miles was 2 hours 1 minute and 25 24-5 sec- onds. . Shrubb Changes Shoes. The Englishman’'s cheering admirers were given a fright when in the 21st mile Shrubb suddenly- stopped and change dhis shoes. During his brief absence from the track Longboat gain- ed one of his lost laps, but Shrubb came on the course again and started at a lively clip. ‘Tom Flanagan, the Indian’s old man- ager, brought Longboat's wife out on the track to encourage her husband. Englishman Down to a Walk. Pandemonium broke loose In the Garden during the 22d mile, when Shrubb walked @ few yards. It was apparent that he was in some distress, bue he was soon off again with a swining stride, though it could be seen that his pace had slackened percepti- bly. Cheered on by*his bride and the shouts of his friends, Longboat in- creased his pace and soon began rapil- 1y to cut down the lead of the now fast tiring Englishman. Indian Cuts Down the Lead. The end of the 23d mile found Long- boat only four laps behind Shrubb, who frequently broke his pace and walked to rest himself. The Indian kept on relentlessly, and in the first half of the 24th mile caused @ hurricane of ap- plause by regaining another lap on his rival. Shrubb Collapses With Mile to Go. Shrubb was in evident distress, and it was only by a plucky effort that he kept struggling on. Longboat regained another lap at the end of the 24th mile and was now setting the pace, with Shrubb manfully following him. The thousands of spectators were now in a turmoll. They velled and cheered as the Indian slowly moved up abreast of the Englishman, who was now but a scant lap ahead in the second lap of the th mile. Longbeat ran without any seeming dlstress, while Shrubb, un- able to walk any furfher, began to walk. Longboat quickly took the lead, FINANGIAL AND COMMERGIAL. SPURTS OF ANIMATION. Day’s Total 8ales Something Above the Recent Average. New York, Feb. 5.—Short periods of animation in the declines in stocks to- day brought the day’s total sales to something above the recent average. The stirring of activity was caused by one or two occurrences to which an unfavorable irterpretation was given from the standpoint of holders of se- curities. The character of the market, however, was not radically changed from the neglected state which has prevailed all this week. Apparently the professional element had stretched their sources to the limit on the buy- ing side of the market, and finding no following to held them, turned to the selling slde for a turn. To expedite the downward movement, they profess- ed apprehension over the news of an- other projected vacation by E. H. Har riman, accompanied by intimations of an atfack of rheumatism. The slight effect produced by today’s rumors seems to be reassuring as to the physi- cal condition of the head of the Union Pacific system. The weakenss of Un- jon Pacific was transferred to Denver and Rio Grande, causing a reaction in that stock, the recent strength of which has been due to suppositions of | a part by Mr. Harriman in a far reach ing project for recasting the Gould system. Another point of special weak ness was Reading, in which there has been persistent selling for several days | past. This stock owes its high price to the confident assumptions which were formed that the commodities clause of the Hcepburn law would be | declared invalld in the test case | brought in the supreme court. Recent | decislons of the supreme court have | been so far away from speculators’ | predictions that s feeling of uneasiness | has grown up over Reading. An infiu- | ence of another kind_was the intima- | tion of dividends on Brooklyn Transit | with the declaration of a 1 per cent. dividend for a quarter. Brooklyn Tran- sit dividend prospects have been a perennial subject for speculation for over ten years past, durihg which m-:g 400 Do. stock rose at one time to as high as | 7. without any actual dividend being forthcoming. ‘The narrow movement of the stock on the announcement in- dicated the quieting effect of certainty in contrast to doubt.
