La.. January 22.— The Tulaue Sell ing Stakes, one of the richest features of the . winter season here, made up the stellar offering of I g Nid - program - at City Park. The heavy track ;: n was instrumental in causing numerous withdrawals and Hie stake also suffered by the scratching of Juggler, Zipango. Momentum. John Carroll and Hyperion U. Their absence left eight to go and in a speculative way there was little to choose between Temaceo and Miss Delaney. although the former was most in favor near post time. of Favoied by good "riding. Temaceo was away from the |iost in the first flight and escaping interference on the first turn, where there was a bad jam, he r; was kept in close pursuit of Orphan Iiud and Sally 1reston for the first three-quarters. Notter then took him to the outside where the going was best and in the stretch run he came away to win as his rider pleased. The showing of Angelus was to creditable. He was in the worst going most of the way. but by sheer aaineness got up in time to beat Sally Preston for second place. Pasadena, but for suffering from early interference and a poor send -off. would have been at least second. The net value of the race to the winner amounted to ,470. The condensed history of the Tulane Selling Strikes is as follows: Year. Winner. A. Wt. Jockey. Val. Time. lMC.

Al Muller finished fully ten .-lengths in front of Tileing. Excepting the stake all the other races were t keenly contested and the results were in doubt until within the last few strides.

Lord Lovat, in the second race, enabled a sharp eastern contingent to profit handsomely by bis vie- ; tor.v. He was much the best and had to be. as his rider. C. I.ange. almost fell off him.

After th" finish Lord Lovat ran away seven furlongs before his rider could get dim under control.
