AUTO RACE IN PHILADELPHIA
Robertson wins 2OO-Mne Contest in
Fairmount Park.


FairmOunt Park.
PHILADELPHIA. Oct. iO.-Tn the mcst
exciting long distance automobile contest
ever seen In this city, George RoDertsor,
driving a locomoble. today won the 200
mile race over a dangerous eight mile
course in Fairmont park. His time was
1890 L. Patchke. in an Acme car. fin
ished second in 4;14:a. Ralph Multord, in
Lozier car was third and A. c. Maucher
IN a Peerless finished fourth. Mulford's
time was 4;l7:26 and Maucher covered the
200 miles In :26. After the fourth car
crossed the line the remaining machines
we're stopped and did not finish.
In all sixteen cars started and only seven
or eight survived the others, falling out for
various reasons.
There were no serious accidents. The race
was the principal feature OF the closing of
Founders week Fifteen hundred police
men guarded the track ard it was due TO
the excellent police arrangements that no
serious accidents occurred.
The cars were sent away at half minute
intervals, beginning at 7 q. m. Half a
dozen cars held the lead at different
periods of the race and finally Robertson
went In front and was never headed. With
him in the lead there followed a hot race
for second position, in which II was des-
tined that neither James Florida in loco
mobile nor George Davis In an Apperson,
leaders for the place, were to finish in
that position Florida was running second,
with Davis close up.
When Robertson entered his twenty
firth and final lap a cheer went up and
the crowd settled back 10 see the fight be-
tween Davis and Florida. The minutes
passed and neither appeared however, and
II was finally learned that both were out
Of commission along the course. Then
came Patchke in the Acme ard then fol
lowed the Peerless and the Lozier fighting
for third place. They had Just gone by the
/ grandstand when Robertson shot past a
victor. a lap ahead of his nearest compet-
! itor.

OKLAHOMA ON SAFE SIDE
Does Not Depend on Guaranty Law to
Protect Its Own Money.
BOND REQUIRED OF THE BANKS
c. o. whedOn Issues Pamphlet Re-
viewing Bryan's RecOrd-Repub-
IIcan Speaking Dates Are
Announced.
CFrom a staff Correspondent)

LINCOLN. Oct. 10--(Special.) III the
guaranty OF bank deposits makes the de-
posits secure, why is it that the state of
Oklahoma requires a bond from the banks
in which are deposited state and school
money!"
The above is a question which a number
of people have been asking since the ap-
pearance of the Oklahoma senators here as
champions of Haskell and the bank guar
anty panacea.
In Oklahoma the banks are required to
deposit a percentage of their money and
cerate fund to pay off depositors Of de-
funct banks. 1t is evident however. that
the state has little faith in this guaranty
proposition, for II still requires state de-
positroies to put up securities or surety
bond to insure the state against loss in
case of bank failure.
Neither Mr.. Bryan, Mr.. Shsllenberger
the Oklahoma boomers nor any other ad-
vocate Of this law in Nebraska has so far
as heard from told this part of the story
to the epople of this state.
A letter was received from Oklahoma
yesterday saying that the state required
securities or surety bond from banks in
which state or school money is deposited.

was then editor, contained the following
editorial. which may be regarded as some

GUNBOAT ALBANY.
To Take Ambassador Creel and Mr.
Buchanan On Peace Mission.

Buchanan On Peace Mission.
Should the plans of the United States
government be acceptable to Mexico, the
gunboat Albany will be utilized to con-
vey Amba ssadOr Creel and Mr. w. /.
Buchanan on their mission of peace and
good fellowship to the five Central Amer
lean republics. The Albany will sail from
San Francisco Monday next for Salina
Cruz the southernmost point reached by
the Mexican Central railway, there to
await the result of arrangements for the
peace mission now under way between
the Mexican and the United States gov
ernments.
The use OF a warship was suggested
to convey the peace mission from the
fact that means of transportation along
the route laid out for the visits are ir-
regular and unsatisfactory. With the
Albany al their disposal the commission
ers could arrange and announce in ad-
vance their itinerary. and would also be
in IL position TO receive we'll as make
official calls and entertain In an appro-
pirate manner the officials of the Central
American republics. With the Albany in
us. the cruise would occupy at least two
months. but without some such means of
transportation a much longer time would
be required to make the calls contem-
plated.
From the fact that ii is stated here that
the cruise of the Albany to Central Amer
lea has been finally determined upon IL
is deduced that Mexico has agreed to
the proposition. Mr. Buchanan is now
on his way to Mexico. where he will
frs. visit Ambassador Creel. who is now
at Chihuahua in his capacity of gov
ernor of that state
