GREAT AUTO MERGER RUMoRED
the Tent of n Holding
Company.

The automobile world of manufacturer
and their far-reaching allies are busily
discussing the plans of a new merger In
the Cleveland district a region from
which but few merger reports have hith-
erto emanated, and this, too, in spite of
its prominence as a manufacturing center
of the cars on the American market
Considerable mystery is being cast over
the merger, which has at least passed
through the embryonic stage of incorpor-
auon, and little light is thrown upon the
interests back of 1t by the names appear
ing in the articles Of incorporation. Dill
gent Inquiries among them have ELECTED
no direct information, and that they are
merely acting in dummy" capacity un-
til the plans for real action are sufficiently
matured is generally admitted.
From the most reliable source 1t is un-
derstood the merger promises to take its
place in the front rank of holding COM
panies, now becoming so fashionable in
the automobile manufacturing world.
Conservatively capitalized--$4,0 600, 900 fs
the capitalization as a starter-it prom
ises to absorb the manufacturing of one
of ne highest-priced cars marketed, and,
by using the selling agencies of the con-
Germ, go into active competition with
three grades of cars in demand, the lead
err in the $1,000 class, the next In the
$4,000 and the third in the more popular
$1,000 grade.
Concentration of manufacturing and
selling forces is the propelling influence
for the merger and big New York finan-
cial interests are the prime movers in an
undertaking, which, carried out on the
lines now in the making, will concentrate
under one roof and in q central organi-
! cation, the manufacture and marketing Of

throes of speculation and many reports

AUTO RACES ARE POSTPONED
Rain Makes Change Necessary in the
Plans of Speeders.
RUN MONDAY IF SUN SHINES
Track All in Readiness Saturday,
but Was Spoiled by shower
Big Cars Waiting for
Chance.

Saturday afternoons rain played havoc
with the plans OF the Omaha Motor Speed
way company for their big race meet which
had been scheduled for Sunday and Mon
day. The rain OF Saturday had already
made It certain that Sundays races will
not be run and unless the sun gets busy
with a Vengeance this morning it is more
than probable that the Labor day races
as we'll will have to be postponed. In the
event that Sunday furnishes plenty of sun
shine the races scheduled for Labor day
will be held If the weather is not such as
to put the track in shape again, however,
the whole meet will be postponed, probably
for two weeks.
The track was worked down under the
/ 6raEs and scrappers until prior to the rain
II was in good, fast shape, the work on
the stands, fences. gates and the like has
been completed, and Omahas newest race
course is a really attractive place.
All the officials for the meet have not
( yet been definitely chosen, but 1t is known
/ that otto P. Nestman and George Rogers
will act as referees. Frank Parmalee will
be one of the timers.
NJ Nestman will not enter any Of the
races, but, driving Fred Hamilton's big
six-cylinder Stephens Duryea. he has prom
ised to establish some speedy track rec
ords in the runs which he will make
against time. At the speeding business
Nestman is far from a novice. He has
some excellent records made at Palm
Beach and at various eastern points, and

Bellevue Hopes
for Strong Team
on the Gridiron
Dopesters Are Figuring Out What the
Chances Will Be This
Fall.

Bellevue's chances for a winning foot ball
team this fall are about what you could
call flair to middling" The line will be
strong but the backfield looks bad. Re-
port has 1t that Morter, who has starred
at half for the last three years and who
was captain last year, will not be back at
school. Morter is one of the best players
that ever donned a Bellevue uniform and
his loss will be heavy one to the
team. Enfield, fullback and Morters'
running mate, graduated last spring and
a new man will have to be developed to
fill his place. With the exception of
these two men, however, all of last year s
team will be available.
Barry, at center. will captain the team.
He is a veteran at the game and strong,
steady player. Brandt and Rice will take
care of the guard positions. David Prim-
rose, who made such a record for him
self on track this spring, is very likely to
be tried out for fullback. If not, he will
be played at tackle, his old position Gus
tbs and Fowler will doubtless put up q
hard scrap for the other position at tackle
Jones and Clabaugh are doped out fol
the ends. This will make a strong and
heavy line as all the men have had al
least one years experience and will aver

-
Maj Sylvester said he could easily ac-
count for a difference of possibly 5000
or 1900 because of the fact that many
workmen who had been employed on the
work about the Union station and gov
eminent buildings have left here since
last year.

The chief said that the policemen who
take the census are familiar with all the
people on their respective beats. They
know ali the rookeries and other places
where many people live, and are able to
enumerate them without any trouble, and
he claims it stands to reason that they
are better qualified for the work than are
strangers.
1t was explained by Maj. Sylvester
that the steady increase shown from year
to year is partly verifcation OF the
police figures. The report of the federal

census taken last year by the police.
The Floating Population.

The figures of the police census did not
include the floating population. They did
include the large number Of Italians and
others who were here engaged in work
on the several big buildings. They lived
here several years. it il explained. and
were considered bona fide residents, al
though lack OF employment has since
caused many of them to seek work else
where. and they would, therefore, not
have figured in a police census had one
been taken this year.
Their going away, Maj. Sylvester thinks
would mean reouction OF not more
than 1000 at the most, and had a census
been taken this year the result would
probably have shown a population in ex-
cess OF 343.O03, which would be consider
ably greater than the federal census
