White Steamer agent, but have an appointment with him. I hope you may succeed in raising $500 for the race from here to Phoenix and at least S1,O0O fo rthe track events"
 In regard to the raising of money for the automobile events MT Bullard said:
 "Of course the prizes for the track events will be put up by the fair commission, but for the Los Angeles Phoenix race we will have to raise s12O0. One thousand dollars of this will be for prize money. The check CTS at the Colorado river will cost $1OO, the sanction. $50 and the guide posts, $50 It should not be very difficult for us to raise this money for if there is anything that has ad- vertised this city. in a national way more than the coast to Phoenix race of last year. I have failed to take note of it."
 C. r. Ainsworth has received word from the chairman of the contest board of the American Automobile association asking for data in regard to the races to submit to eastern manufacturers. This request has been complied with The letter stated that the Locohobile people had about de- cided to enter some cars.

in Los Angeles. An extract from the letter follows:
 A representative of the Automo- bile club of southern California called on me few days ago saying that if your club would make arrangements to place sign posts between Phoenix and the Colorado river, the California club would place them from here to the west side of the river. l would be very glad to have you take the matter up and let me know what to say to the local association"
 MT. Bullard said that there was no doubt that the local club would see to the sign posting on this side of the river, as it is quite importants since many of the contestants will not be familiar with the route. The cost will be about $50.
 In regard to entries other than those already known, MT Mitchell writes: "Leavitt has gone east, but I talked to other members of his firm today They assure me their inten- tion is to put a car in the race, but can do nothing final till Leavitt's re- turn. Before going he told me he was going to put a Renault in the race and possibly Locomobile also. I have not seen Carpenter, the new
