NOTHING DOING.
SAYS FENNER
REFUSES CONSENT TO RUN
ISOTTA AGAINST KNOX
Big Italian May Be Bought by Syndl-
cate and Sent Out to Make
Records on Tracks
and Roads

Not through any fear of the car not
making good, but the prejudices of
Fred c. Fenner of the Motor Car I'M
port company will have to be over
come to permit the Italian stock car
Issotta- Fraschini to enter into COM
petition in q race at Ascot park. Rest
ing upon the demonstrated fact that
the big italian racer has the speed
probably greater than any car in Cali
fornia, 1t seems to be the determina-
ton of the head of the Motor Car I'M
port company to sit still and not per-
init his car to participate in any event
The remarkable showing of the Isotta
in a one mile straightaway pleases
Fenner all right, but he announces
that he is through with the racing
game or any part OF 1t, regardless of
the inducements which would lead him
to enter.
The Herald is advised, however, that
there is to be a concerted movement
made among certain capitalistic gentle
men to purchase the Isotta outright
and hold her in control for future
events.
The Isotta is a monstrously fast ma
chine, and IL is to be regretted If the
decision OF Fred Fenner should be final,
for there are many in this city who
would like to see the Spaghetti go
against the time of Barney Oldfield,
especially as that gentleman has issued
so broad and sweeping challenge that
"he would return to Los Angeles and
beat any stock car in this city with his
big stock racing car, the slx-cylinder
Knox, and offers to present to the
winning driver the sum of $3.50 If his
opponent should win, and this supple
mented by the further offer of $500 IL
the outside car should win."
The writer has known Fred Fenner
for many years and always as a genu-
inc lover of good clean sports of any
character, and 1t may be possible that
he may yet be induced to permit his
handsome racing car to give a public
exhibition of what Barney Oldheld him
self claims for his Benz, namely, that
there is no American machine which
can compete with the foreigner in
speed and makeup. The conditions
would be reversed in a contest of
speed between Oldheld's big Knox and
Fenner's big Isotta, for here Barney
would be riding the American, while
Fenner would be sending his italian
machine against him, and the run made
by Herrick of Tuesday of one mile in
40 1-5 seconds proves conclusively that
she is a wizard in the going process.
Come on, colonel, the car Is in shape,
as she is this minute to compete with
anything in her class. No further ax-
pense Is necessary to place her on the
track. Wake up and give the pubic
the opportunity to stop the stampede
of Oldfleld in his seemingly uneoh-
querable march to the top of the ladder
with his racinS machine.

LIVINGSTONE WILL
TOUR THE CONTINENT
ARRANGEMENTS Being Consummated
Which VIII Probably Send Him
on Broad Tour Covering
American Continent

Hard as has been the fortune of Al
Livingstone, the plucky and nerVy rae
ing driver, with his little favorite car,
his friends have never lost sight or the
fact that wrapped up in that bundle of
human anatomy there is the stun that
makes good; and to this end there Is In
course of arrangement at this writing
a scheme which will bring this young
ster In years, but old in experience
before the eyes of the world.
= The Cabin which Livingstone has
captained in the past few weeks val
iantly In the entries at Ascot park Is
part OF the program of the parties IN
terested, and before the week is over
it is the intention to send Livingstone
into almost every portion OF the United
States on a proposition which Will bring
him probably more favorably before the
public than any other driver on the
continent.
Just what these plans are have not
been at this writing fully matured, but
are in due process of being worked out
upon lines generous and broad.
Livingstone has a wide and general
knowledge of the world as to the au-
tomobile business, and it is upon this
experience that the present proposition
Is being builded.
Several business men and capitalists
have Interested themselves in the mat
ter and are at work upon the matter,
which, If fully consummated, will dis
patch the little Corbin upon conti-
nent-breaking tour the results of which
are to make an important issue in the
commercial and industrial enterprise of
this city.
The full particulars are to be devel-
open within the next twenty-four hours,
and when satisfactorily arranged these
details will be given to the public
through the columns of The Herald.

commends The Herald

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 29.-[Automo-
bile Editor Herald; G. ]. Kramer in
formed me this evening that you had
been settled npon to hold the stakes
in the coming motorcycle race of Sun
day. 1 don't know whether you have
been communicated with regarding the
matter or not.
l want to congratulate you, however,
on your article in yesterdays paper.
1t is one of the best articles 1 have
ever seen on sport. High grade and
breathing a broad spirit, l have never
seen before in this field. If we could
only have a few more of this kind-not
only in the legitimate sporting field,
but such in the field of art and the
drama, we would in time become a
people of wellbred and educated tastes
such as the American public should be.
You certainly have nailed your flag
and flown it in the right direction.

Increase in Taxicabs

The increase in the number of motor
taxicabs has led to a decrease in the
total number of public vehicles in
service in Berlin during the third quar-
ter of the year from 10,702 to 10,552.
The number of cabs has dropped from
6475 to 6S0S. OF the horse cabs of the
first class, 224 discontinued, so that on
September 80 there remained only 500.
Cabs of the second class are disap-
pearing slowly but surely; there were
129 left on September 30, against 1872 on
June 80. The number of motor cabs
increased from S73 to 93S. The omnibus
companies owned at the end of the
third quarter 95S vehicles, as compared
with 942 of which 173 were motor pro-
PEELED, as compared with 166.

y As the date draws nearer great ex-
element is being manifested in motor
cycle circles over the 1O0-mile profess
sional race which is to be pulled off at
the Coliseum track, SlXty-third and
Main streets. next Sunday afternoon
at 2:30 o'clock,
Both the riders and their friends
have caught the betting habit on this
race, and all kinds of money Is
being put up on the result, par
ticularly among the friends OF Lin
genfelder and De Roster. Lingenfel-
der came out yesterday with propo-
sition to place a side bet with De
Roster of 800 that he would win over
the champion. AS soon as De Roster
heard of the offer he looked up Lin
genfelder and showed a new. crisp 800
bill TO be covered. The final stake
holder will be settled upon today, and
the amount may be increased from 500
to 5000 by these contestants, as their
friends are confident that each will
win the race and desire to participate
In the profits. From the present feel
ing, 1t looks as though $500 to $1,000
may be waged upon the event.
While De Roster won the last years
race, there has never been decisive
victory between these two stars In
the motorcycle game. Not only this
condition, but the winner will hold the
national championship for the coming
year, as this race is free-for-all, and
the time record viii In the future, as in
the past, be the fastest ever made for
the distance to be covered.
Lingenfelder worked out fifty miles
yesterday at the Coliseum track In 40
minutes which he says he will beat
by Ave minutes next Sunday. De Ro-
sler is not riding any, but Is lying
low. However. he is always around
when money is mentioned In connec-
tion with the race.
In the meantime while Lingenfelder
and De Roster are fighting the race
out, Samuelson, Whittier and Mitchell
are daily working out for the event
and will have to be taken into com
sideration on the final scratch.

of the best motorcycle events ever
pulled off in this part of the country.
Eugene Bemis, general representa-
tive of the Chalmers-Detroit Motor
company of Detroit, who is In the city,
will stay over TO witness this race, as
he believes it will be one of the best
ever held in America. While Mr.. Be"
mis- is welded almost entirely TO the
automobile game. he believes that
Southern California is particularly
adapted to motorcycle racing, hence
his desire to see this race.
