Peace and harmony now reign at the
Chicago Automobile club. The board of
managers of the club has voted unani-
mously that the club shall assume all
the Indebtedness resulting from the
Crown Point races, and that Ira NJ. Cobe
should permitted to aid in wiping out
the amount of the deficit.
The only flaw to the harmony feast
was the appearance of F. ]. Lewis of
the manufacturing company of that
name, with the announcement that he
was preparing to sue Mr.. CODE for the
payment Of about $4,000 of the indebt-
edness incurred in the construction of
the race course. The original contract
specified that the course should be built
at a cost OF $4,000.
The club paid approximately $4,000
on the contract and then declared 1t
would pay nothing more because the
Lewis company had failed to fulfill its
contract to keep the course in good con-
dition.
Mr.. Cobe, as president OF the club.
agreed to go personal security for the
payment Of the s21,6 before the Lewis
company would accept the contract. The
suit, If it is filed, will be against Mr..
Cobe personally, although the board of
managers voted to contest any further
payment.
Some rough figures on the deficit were
presented at the board meeting. but
nothing definite probably will be known
for another month. 1t is said the loss
will exceed $780, 900. Mr.. Cobe. It is said

of the club. announced that Mr.. Cobe
had agreed voluntarily to assume a
large part Of the deficit.
Mr.. Cobe never attempted to shirk
any financial responsibility in conneo-
ton with the Crown Point races" said
Mr.. Crawford. "At the meeting he said
he desired 10 bear a part of the deficit
because he was president of the club.
not for any publicity he may or may
not have received as the donor of the
cup.
"I know personally Mr.. CODE from the
first wanted to have the cup donated
by the automobile club. The board of
managers, however decided that the
phrase 'Cobe cup race would be much
better than the Chicago Autmobile
Club cup race for the simple reason
that you can get CODE cup race in a
newspaper headline, where the other
would be too long.
while there may be members of the
club who thought Mr.. CODE should pay
all the deficit because Of the publicity
he received the majority of them know
he did not go into 1t for publicity and
they believe he should not be made to
bear all the expense. However, he and
Mr.. Farson desired to put up part OF
the expense, and we permitted them to
do IT.
In spite of the loss In the Crown
Point affair the board of managers vot-
ed to hold another race next year, al
though just how and when and where
the meet is to be arranged was not dis
cussed 1t Is probable that the race
will be held on the Indiana course.

The accident was one Of the most
terrible of the kind that has happened
in the vicinity of Hammond in a num-
Der fyears. The fact that two young
men in the prime of young manhood
had been killed is matter of deep
regret.
The accident calls attention to the
fact that there are several dangerous
crossings in the rural districts that
might just as well be eliminated by
the construction of an overhead drive
