PACIFIC ELECTRIC
ROUTING CHANGED
MISSION ROAD TRACKS TO BE
ABANDONED
South Pasadena, Annandale ana
Mount Lowe Cars Ran Over
DAILY Street Through Ar
royo de los Pesos

South Pasadena, Annandale and
Mount Lowe cars of the Pacific Elec-
tric were routed to Daily street through
the Arroyo de los Pesos yesterday
That route. following the Pasadena
tracks through the Arroyo to the plah'
of the Los Angeles Brick company
and then cutting over to the old line
al Mission road and Daily street, VIII
be used hereafter, and the old tracks
on Mission road and Gallardo street
will be taken up.
The Pacific Electric wooden bridge
near the old death gap" at Macy ana
Gallardo streets will be removed as
soon as the tracks for the Brooklyn
avenue line can be laid across the
new concrete bridge which took the
place of the death gap"
Another change of interest TO Hlgh-
land Park and GarvanZa residents par
ticularly is the proposed extension OF
the Highland Park branch of the Salt
Lake railway to connect through PAS
adena, La Canada and Verdugo PARK
with the Glendale branch of the Salt
Lake road. This will make a scenic
loop which is calculated to call atten-
ton to the section traversed.
Residents of La Canada valley are
agitating the extension and have al
ready subscribed a bonus of $4,000.
officials of the Salt Lake road have
made several trips over the route. 1t
is estimated that less than seven
miles of track will complete the loop,
as the Glendale line already runs prac-
tically to the Verdugo canyon addi-
tion. The Salt Lake officials are said
to be contemplating a quick service
with gasoline motor cars.

ISOTTA TO BE
READY FOR IT
BIG ITALIAN RACER ENTERED
FOR ASCOT RACES
With Frank Free, Al Livingstone
Frank Siefert, Harris Hanshue
and Charlie Soules on Track
Sounds Like East Events

1t is settled that the Isotta is to be
seen upon the track at Ascot park next
Saturday and Sunday, with Frank Free
at the wheel of the great Italian stock
car, with which she christened the fair
grounds track at Phoenix by winning
the races in which she was entered
and breaking the coast record.
Fred c. Fenner, president of the
Motor Car Import company, yesterday
entered the big Italian machine in the
Ascot park events to which the car is
eligible, paying his entrance fees, and
now awaits the return of the racing
machine from Phoenix.
The Isotta will arrive back in this
city by Tuesday at least, and then
will be placed in the shop for a general
look over after her hard experiences
en- route to Phoenix, and put in the
pink of condition for the races in which
the car probably will participate No
vember 20 and 21.
Frank Free is in the best of shape for
the race, and when he takes the throt-
tie of the Isotta for the events the
public will see the fastest racing car
ever brought to the Pacific coast.
The plucky little Corbin at least will
be there to measure speed with the
Isotta, and this little bantam alongside
the big car has been thoroughly over
hauled and made more speedy than
ever by Expert E. A. Heune. AL Liv-
ingstone will pilot the sturdy little
racer, and he is considered one of the
fastest drivers on the coast.
If Leon T. Shelter enters one of his
cars-either the Apperson "Jackra bbit"
or the Kisselkar "Tobasco H." with
Harris Hanshue at either of the
wheels-there will be another big thing
to see.
1t is certain. too. that Frank Siefert
will be the driver of the Palmer Singer,
and it is a fast car being made faster
by Siefert, who has the car in charge.
Charlie Soules. it is reported. is to
be here and participate, and as Soules
has been in hard luck with his machine
since coming to the coast. it is to be
hoped that he may have a car that
will stand up under the terrific pace
Soules is known to set when on the
track.
Free Livingstone, Siefert. Hanshue
and Soules on one track sounds some
thing like Long Island, Atlanta and
Indianapolis.

EXPERIENCES OF FORD
ONE OF MISFORTUNE
HARD LUCK FROM START TO
THE FINISH
But PIucky Crew Stayed with 1t All
and Pegged Away for Phoenix,
the Place They Had
in View

There will never be any doubt in
the minds of those who are interested
in automobiles and follow their ca
pacity of the plucky little Ford nor
of the stamina and grit that exist in
the makeup of Roger Stearns and his
crew on the little car that made her
way to Phoenix, crippled over and
over again, yet refused to turn back.
From the moment the Ford left Los
Angeles that memorable night, midst
a crowd of $4,000 people cheering and
strewing the hood of the midget with
carnations and flowers, the experiences
of the car and crew was one of ro-
nance and nerve, misfortunes and
hard luck, but she went through.
The Ford had remarkable expert
ences from the time 1t left Los An
geles on Saturday night, November 9.
The Ford first skidded on wet pave
ment and bent rear axle, which was
speedily Strengthened out. Fourteen
miles from Indio the right rear wheel
was broken by striking a boWlder on
a curve. The Ford drivers walked
back to Indio and secured a new wheel
and a pair of mules to draw them
back, arriving at the car about dark.
The wheel was affixed and the river
made in good time. The Ford met
the Franklin, driven by Hamlin, re-
turning toward Los Angeles, but
Stearns thought he still had a good
position in the race and went on to
the river, reaching there at noon Mon
day. He had some difficulty in getting
gasoline at Mecca which caused a
few hours delay.
After he crossed the river Stearns
heard of some cripples in the race and
started to "beat it," Not knowing the
road, this proved unfortunate, for he
4 in a
canyon and bent the steering knuckle.
The Ford passed the Pennsylvania
-bout eighteen miles from the river,
but limped behind after the accident.
StSarns came on to Phoenix with the
Pennsylvania and Harris and Pratt
went on to Quartzsite, where 1t was
decided to make repairs. A new steer
ing knuckle was telegraphed for ana
Stearns says he telegraphed that one
had been sent, but the drivers did
not receive word and decided to use
the old one, which had been broken
by an amateur blacksmith. With this
repair made, Harris and Pratt started
out Tuesday night for Phoenix, but
became confused in the mountains,
where all roads looked alike. They
had some canned grub but little water.
The nights were very cold on the oes-
ert. While making a campfire Harris
stepped on q rattlesnake but escaped
being stung. These little trifles ola
rot conduce to make sound sleep, but
the coyotes entertained them with con-
certs till morning
AT Winters Well they found a
ranch and Harris drank too much
water for one long without 1t. For
time he feared that he would never
come through alive. When found by
Stearns they were pretty near all in.
but had no thought of quitting until
they reached the capital city of Ari-
zona, which was the original obJec-
tive of the Ford when it left Los An
geles.

TREMENDOUS PROFITS
IN BUILDING AUTOS
GENERAL MOTORS COMPANY
DECLARES DIVIDEND
Produced 2e,5oo Cars and Volume of
Business Reached $34ooo,ooo
and Orders Taken for
$4,000 Cars

Few realize the enormous amount Of
money that is involved in the auto
mobile trade in the United States.
Each month sees a wonderful increase.
The great amount of money that is in
vested and handled by the manufac-
turers may be realized from the report
just made concerning one of the ANAL
gamated companies which is a little
over a year old The report states
that the Michigan holders of General
Motors common stock have been noti-
fled Of the action of that company in
declaring dividend of 150 per cent,
payable in common stock November Is.
Present common stock of the General
Motors company amounts to $500, 600.
With the dividend just declared the
outstanding common stock will be in
creased TO S13,750, 000 still leaving more
than $26, 100000 Of the $40, 100000 COM
mon stock authorized by the stock
holders some time ago in reserve.
Cause for rejoicing on the part of
stockholders is not alone dependent
on the dividend just announced, the
showing in other directions during the
first year of the eneral Motors COM
pany's existence being decidedly favor
able
According to w. c. Durant, presi-
dent of the General Motors company,
at the close of business September 30,
marking the end of the year, there was
a surplus in excess Of $10000O0. Charg-
ing off all depreciation, patents and
doubtful accounts, there still remained
surplus of $1O40,OO0, decidedly COM
Portable showing for so short a period.
During the year just closed constlt-
uent companies making up General
Motors produced an aggregate of U.s.
$50 automobiles, the volume of bust
ness represented being $4,000, 900. Fore
casts for the coming year are even
more favorable, Durant stating that
orders have been secured for 6S, 900
cars, representing a sale value of
$50 000, 600.

Ralph Hamlin's Great Luck

The sympathizers with Ralph c.
Hamiin, who had the misfortune to
have the injuries result to his splendid
Greyhound car, should withhold their
great luck. It is possible that tbe
fates were with the Greyhound and her
owner and peeped into the future suff-
ciently to compel his withdrawal from
the race. He did not reach the hotel
charges at the territorial capital hence
was far from being the unfortunate
man he was considered. Rather was
he in great luck to have simply nearly
ruined his machine, for he will nov,
