had determined to withhold It's customary guar
antcc, which has heretofore enabled the L. A.
w. to perfect arrangements with tho Canadian
Customs authorities for the free passage of L.
A. w. membcrs with their wheels across the
Canadian border, President Potter has had 70
cent correspondence with President George n.
Orr Of the Canadian Wheelmcn's Association,
and has Just received a letter from that official
dated Juno 10. In which the latter says:
understand your position in the case
thoroughly, and most assuredly we will not al.
low the racing business to affect your tourist
privilege. The bond has been signed complete,
and the Chairman OF the Rights and Privileges
Committee is instructed to forward 1t ut once.
No doubt YOU will hear from him in tho course
OF a day or 80 as to your bond"
This letter effectually dispoaps of nil rurpor
of n serious friction between the two organiza-
tons.

an Informal talk the mmit discussed the
proposition to make the race open only to riders
with records for twenty-five miles of l hour and
10 minutes or better; The question of limiting
three minutes is also talked OF. The idea OF
closing the entries thirty days before the race is
also under considerations: The object OF these
