NO CHANGES TO 80
BE MADE IN RULES
FOR VANDERBILT RACES.
NO CHANGE IN RULES FOR
VANDERBILT CUP RACE

unanimously decided that so far as tho
Vanderbilt Il race of this year Is con-
corned the same should be held under
the rules previously announced by the
racing board of the American Automo-
biIe Association. In the opinion OF
,hose nresent any other action az this
time would be unfair to the American
manufacturers, particularly IN that II
would now be impossible for them TO
br,ild cars which conform to the Ostend
rules. and also in hat there Is no as
snrance that the foreign bodies Will
continue to observe the Ostend rules
next year,
The hone was expressed, however, that
when a proper representation on the
committee which shall frame the flu
tnre racing rules for international on
tests is given to the American Auto
mobile Association at the national gov
erning body in the United States, and
as representing more motor users than
all of the foreign clubs combined, as
well as an industry which turns out
more cars annually than any other
country, 1t will be possible to arrive at
a formula equally satisfactory on both
sides of the ocean, and then to hold
future international events under such
formula.
also was made that
four foreign cars are assured for the
Vanderbilt race, viz: Mercedes, Benz,
Hotchkiss and Renault. Ten represen-
tative American entries also are prom
Used. The Long Island course over
which the race will take place in DC
tober will be approximately twenty-five
miles in length.

OLD FOX DID
NOT DESERT THE
SINKING SHIP
Griffith Is Said to Have Had
Trouble with Clubs
Owner.

NEW YORK, July 16.-From a source
that Clark Griffith did not voluntarily
give up the leadership of the New York
American baseball team. Many locaI
fans have wondered why Griffith quit
the team after it's slump, which started
prior to the last Western trip and con-
tinued until the aggregation was safely
in the cellar position.
More than one of the loyal rooters
has openly criticised the little manager
for leaving the team in the middle OF
the season, when his presence might
have taken it back to a commanding
place in the pennant race. That Grif-
fifth did not quit, but was forced to re-
sign, will clear up the situation to the
"Old Fox's' friends, whose name is
legion.
The causes leading up to tho sever
ance of relations between Owner Frank
Farrell and Griffith involved several of
the players who went over the man.
ayers head with petty grievances.
Pitcher Billy Hogg. who made such a
disgraceful showing on the Hilltop yes
terday. is said to be one of the dis
gruntled men. The twirler complained
that he was not being worked often
enough to do his best. Farrell asked
Grit the reason. Crit said that Hogg
had nothing" but was ordered to use
him against st. Louis. The result was
a slaughter.
Then Farrell is said to have turned
on the player and ordered his suspen-
sion, a thing Griffith declined to ratify,
saving it was against his principles to
take a players money from him. From
that point on the breach widened until
conditions became impossible for the
little manager. But he did not desert
the sinking ship. as many have i'm
agined.

KEENE'S WARNINGS
BRING GOOD PRICES.

NEWMARKET, July 16.-James r.
Keene's y%earlings, although not looking
their best on account of their hurried
departure from the United States,
brought exceptionally good prices at
the sales here yesterday. Nine colts
brought an aggregate of $40, 700 and ten
FLIES $13,S75. Lord Lonsdale, who
bought several of the yearlings, gave
the highest prices, $3.50 for a Ally by
Disguise II. out of Tzarina, and $1,000
for a fiIly by Kingston out of Bingham.

Until two weeks ago he was a member
of the Boston American team, having
played with the Red Sox under Jimmy
Collins. Glaze did not get work enough
with the Red Sox to keep him in shape
and, of course, did not win many games
for them.
Three years ago Glaze was the star
Of the collegiate world, winning honors
for the Hanover collegians both on the
gridiron and on the diamond. A big
salary vas paid by the Boston Ameri-
Can management to induce him to play
professional ball. He and his brother
John did more to put Dartmouth on
the athletic nap than any other W
students who ever attended the college.
Glaze halls from Denver, Col.
Glaze Is about the best college pitcher
who has worked in the Eastern League
since Walter Clarkson pitched for Jer-
sey City three years ago. Like Clark
son he appears to have the league bat
.ers buffaloed. but In the American
League he vas found to be pretty soft.
Glaze has won five straight games
for the Grays. The only time that 1t
looked as though he would get his
bumps was at Jersey City last week
when the Shelters landed on him early
in the game.

Importance
Editor Inlay City Record
Dear Sir:-What is the law in Mich
igan relative to leaving samples OF
medicine on door steps and porches of
houses. Citizen.
We are glad our friend has asked
this question as the practice of throw
ing samples of medicines upon prem
Uses is a menace to young children who
are liable to eat them with dangerous
if not fatal results. The law now
plainly prohibits this practice and we
believe any one guilty of violating il
should be complained of and prosecut-
ed. The law as enacted by the last
legislature is as follows:
The People of the State of Michigan
enact.
Section 1.-The free distribution of
all medicines of every kind and nature
from house to house, or from any
vehicle, is hereby prohibited.
Section Amy person, firm or cor
poration, or any servant, agent or en-
ployee thereof who violates the pro-
vision of this act shall be deemed
guilty of a misdemeanor and upon con-
viction thereof shall be punished by a
fine not exceeding one hundred dollars
or Imprisonment in the county jail not
exceeding ninety days, or by both such
fine or Imprisonment in the discretion
of the court.

GOLD FIND IN ALBERTA.

Edmonton, Alberta Nov. Ire
ports of rich gold strike near Sedge-
wick. OH the Wetaskiwin branch of the
G. L. r., have been received here. Five
men of that district are in the city fill
ing placer claims and say the indica-
tions of gold are good The gold was
discovered by George Peterson, an o. 1
Yukon prospector, on his homestead
west of Sedgewick, on Willow Creek.
He says it is glacier deposit. The
gold bearing area is 20 miles long and
the channel is about 100 feet below the
surface.
The bed of the creek is muskeg,
which increases the difficulty of min
ing. Sedgewick farmers are stalking
claims and plan to form a company
and develop the claims. A sample of
the gold sent to Montreal assays at 50
per yard and some sent to Spokane
yielded $50 per ton. The report caused
intense excitement.
[Ed.-The above was clipped from a
last weeks Detroit News. Sedgewick
is where Charles Rounds has a home
stead and this report interests him ex
ceedingly. Here's hoping.
