ILLINOIS.

Chicago, Nov. 8.-With prospects
for a cold and cloudy day, politicians
of all compilations began their task
of getting out the vote at o'clock
this morning. Claims of both sides
were discounted at the last hour by
the refusal Of 1905 silent voters"
to reveal their intentions to canvass
ers from either the Democratic or Re
publican parties.
The congressional fight in Illinois is
almost overshadowed by the legisla-
tive election. In three senatorial dis
trlcts in the state, legislators under
indictment for legislative scandals
are running for reelection.
Peoria, Nov. S.-Apathy eliminated.
during the last few days, the political
wires have been stretched to the limit,
with the managers standing firm at the
reel unwilling to relax their hold until
the last vote has been counted: the
polls opened under a clear sky at Z
o'clock. Indications are for a heavy
vote.

HORAN WINS BIG PRIZE.
And Sets a New American Record for
Distance.

Atlanta, Ga, Nov. S.-Joe Horan,
going at ~ miles an hour in a Lozier
car, won the $50 miles speedway grand
prize here, together with $4,000 in
cash.
Horan set a new American record
for the distance. His time of hours,
26 minutes and 1910 seconds, beats
the previous record of hours, 3S
minutes, 81 As seconds, made by Bur-
man in 1909.
Bad luck in car No. Is made a grand
slam with the rest of the machines.
No. 13 in letters two feet high was
affixed to r. V Church's Simplex.
When the big 13 began to swing
around the track with the leaders in
the first 25 miles, several other en-
gines got balky and had to be stopped
at the pits. Ralph Mulford's Lozier
sheared a pin on it's cam rod. Then
No. 13 blew a tire, and straightway it
appeared that they were nearly all
blowing tires. Finally, after No. 13
had jumped the track on it's fortieth
mile, Louis Disbrows Pope-Hartford
broke down, and Disbrow pushed his
car through the same hole in the fence
that 13 had made.
Burman, driving a Marquette-Buick
could not shake off the hoodoO, stop
ping just nine times with tires ripped
off. After his two most dangerous
rivals, Harroun and Dawson, had quit
the track with engine trouble, Burman
began a chase after Horan. Both
stopped on even terms with fiat tires,
but Burman's helpers, for the second
time in the afternoon, grabbed up the
wrong tire and lost all his gains.
