Elgin, ILL.,, Aug. 25.-Eighteen cars
were started in the three events OF the
second annual Elgin road races at IL
o'clock today. The sun was out, the
track fast and the thousands of specta-
tors were looking for broken records.
Donald Herr, in a National, was the
first away--the other cars of the Illi-
nois cup and the Kane county cup fol-
lowing him at thirty second intervals,
The small cars in the Aurora cup
event--two Abbot Detroits and a Ford
were sent away at minute intervals
into the smoke of No. az.
In the big car contest for the Illinois
+ cup the leaders reeled off the first thir-
ty-three miles at about sixty six miles
an hour. Herr led his team mate,
Merz, by just one second. Jefins was
ten seconds behind Merz. The small
cars travelled about forty 1--WE miles an
hour end on the third lap were seconds
apart, Robert first. Robbins second and
Kullick third.
At fifty miles, the two Nationals
maintained their lead over the Velie
pair, but Herr was leading Merz by
about eight miles. At thirty three
miles Robbins lost first place in the
ANAL car contest evidently being in
trouble in some remote part OF the
course. Roberts assumed the leader
ship, followed by Kullick. Stickney's
tVelie was busy with repairs at the
pit, lap after lap being lost to the
other three cars, the two Nationals
and Velie In the Illinois cup, while
abe Velie mechanics worked over the
engine,
AT sixty-seven miles Hughes and his
team mate, W. f. Barnes, jr, were
respectively first and second In the

the fastest thus far made.
A Mighty Throng.
An almost unproKen procession OF
automobiles stretched its dusty length
from Chicago to this city this morning
bringing its share Of throngs pouring
IN here to attend the races today and

Despite predictions OF rain, the sun
peeped through the clouds at dawn
and what had seemed a probability
OF marring weather for the races be-
gan with good conditions.
The business section or this city
was like log jam for congestion dur
