TO HAVE AUTO RUN NEW YORK TO DENVER

New York, Aug 22-During the re- cent Glidden tour a proposition for a run from New York to Denver and back was broached and much discuss ed. It seemed to find favor. The plan as at first roughly suggested was to camp the tourists at night west of Chi cago, having ex-circus men, or other experts, in charge of big tents, nov ing them forward by train and wagons each day and having them ready at night. It was thought that the novel, ty of such a trip would probably at tract considerable contingent of non- contesting tourists and would at the same time afford opportunity for a more severe test than is possible through the large city and rural speed traps of the eastern coast.
