VANDERBILT RACE
Auto Contest Will be Held Next Fall and May Come
 to Connecticut.

New York, April 27,--J. D. Thompson, chairman of the Vanderbilt cup com miesion, announced positively today that there would be a Vanderbilt cup race this fall, but was unable to say where 1t will be held.
 Two formal applications for the race have been made, One comes from the Savannah Automobile club and the other from the St, Louis Automobile club It is understood that a third application Is to come from Connecti- cut either from the Bridgeport or the Hartford Automobile club.
 A. w, Sullivan, secretary of the sa- vannah club, arrived in New York to- day to assist Harvey Granger in pre- sentlng the claims of Savannah. These two will confer with MT, Thompson to- morrow.
 It is generally believed that because of the distance from New York to St. Louis the choice of Vanderbilt cir cult rests between Georgia and Con- necticut.
