While tho list of earliest dates

is evident that this year will see the
greatest racing that the motor car
speed game has ever seen. Certainly
every indication points that way. At
present Chairman Samuel Butler OF
the contest board of the American
Automobile association is busy COM
piling the schedule. The fact that a
number of the big promoters were a

STORM AND BLIZZARD
GENERAL THROUGH STATE
Passenger Trains Are Stalled In Snow
Banks And Traffic is
ParaIyxed.

LANSING, Mich, Jan. 1.-THE
snow storm and blizzard were general
throughout Michigan, according to re-
ports received here from various parts
OF the state.
Eighteen inches OF snow was re-
ported on the level at Ionia, paralyz-
ing all railroad traffic. The snow
drifted In huge plies and the railroads
were fighting with monster plows To
clear the way. The Pere Marquette
passenger train, which left lonia at
8 o'clock Thursday night. was stalled
six miles north OF there. The farmers
came to the rescue with food after
the train had been held all night. a
snow plow was dispatched TO the
scene
plow fought its way through a
snow bank 90 feet high and half mile
long. at Grant. near Traverse City.
One of the severest storms and bliz-
gard OF the winter struck Muskegon
and the western part OF the state.
Traffic on steam and interurban roads
was reported at a standstill. Snow
drift were piled higher than the
fences.
Saginaw reported that the storm
had paralyzed railroad and wire traf'
fc In that section. The Pere Mar
ouette trains were hours behind
schedule time. The train due there at
e:4O Thursday night was stalled near
Greenville and the 75 passengers
amused themselves In snow bank.
The Michigan Central and Grand
Trunk trains were similarly crippled.

the chair TO be shaved. Robinson be-

CONFLICT rs COMING IN

fire and Police Department Will Have
To Do Some Explaining As
To Budgets.

AS the time OF making up the
estimates draws near. ii becomes evil
dent that there Is going to be more
than usual conflict over the budgets
of the fire and police commissions.
Police Commissioner Croul is under
stood to be considering extensive
plans for the increase OF his force,
but ne is bound TO have hard shedding.
II Is not the saloonkeepers in the coun-
ell and board of estimates alone who
are preparing to oppose Crouls plans,
although these are the most determin-

l IF the police commissioner can de-
tail man to do nothing but stand in
front of one saloon. he certainly has
plenty OF men," says Estimator Bar

The action OF Police Commissioner
Croul In buying an automobile patrol
wagon without asking the consent or
the estimators has also aroused some
feeling. Estimator w. A. Schneider
hectares that Croul may have to pay
Tor the machine out of his own pocket.
BY shifting balances to acquire prop
erty and apparatus which had not
been allowed by the board OF esti-
mates, the FIRE commission has started
trouble. The latest occurrence In this
3ine was the purchase OF an automo-
bile fire engine through shifting OF
balances, and Estimator Schneider
makes the charge that the fire com
mission has padded it's estimates for
new engine houses.

DEATH TOLL IN SHIPWRECK
IN PACIFIC PLACED AT 80
Only Two Men Are Saved After
Steamer Cxarina Goes To Pieces
On Bar.

MARSHFIELD, Ore, Jan. 14.-It Is
practically certain that 80 persons
were drowned In the wreck OF tho
steamer Czarina. which struck on
Coos Bay bar. Wednesday. Only two
have been rescued. Six others. includ-
ing Capt Dugan and Harold Mills.
were seen TO drop into the sea. All
hope has been abandoned OF ever
reaching their bodies alive. The en-
tire crew OF the steamer numbered 80.
Harry Kentzell, first assistant en-
gineer was found unconscious In the
breakers late and j. Robinson. second
assistant. was washed ashore.
Several hours after Kentzell was
rescued he regained consciousness.
and said that Capt. Dugan and Mills.
the only passenger, had been bound To
one of the masts. Robinon added that
when the forward mast, To which ho
and five others had climbed. went b.
the board. the master. first officer
mate. Mills and two seamen were
alive in the after.rigging. These. Robin
son said. were the only ones left on
the ship.
All night watchers patrolled the
shore. Among them were c. J. Mills,
steamship agent OF the Southern Pa
cific company at Marshfeld. and his
wife. Early in the night they gave
up hope OF again seeing alive their son
Harold. boy OF 20 years. who had
left them bound for college.
Heroic but futile efforts were made
by the United States lifesaving crew

doomed slips company.
Kentzells escape Is wonderful
story OF m.n's endurance anu physical
strength. When the ship piled on the
rock he and six other took TO the rig
ging OF the foremast. Sea after sea
smashed over the vessel. The decks
were awash and wreckage was hoat-
ing about. Finally tremendous sea
swept Kentzell and his companions
from their places.
Kentzell was swept toward land
time and time again. but he was as
often carried out to sea by shifting
currents, until he got hold OF piece OF
timber and was slowly driven shore
ward AS he neared the beach and
caught sight OF rescuers. conscious
ness left him, and he knew nothing
until he came to on the beach beside
a big fire. He had been brought back
to life after several hours OF vigorous
treatment. He is on the road to re-
covery.
