3 BIC EVENTS
At MOTORDROME
MEET TONIGHT.
Cracker Sweepstakes, at 7 Miles,
Will Be Longest and Most In
portant Race of Season.

THE Cracker Sweepstakes. most
important of the races sched-
uled for decision thus far at
the local Motordrome. will be run
Tuesday night. 1t was postponed
from Friday night on account of rain.
The final in this event will be at
seven miles, the longest race of the
season. On account of its length this
affair is likely to produce form up
sets and might possibly produce
some motorcycle Upsets as we'll A
7-mile race at So to 80 miles an hour
on a FLAP track is calculated to try
TO the utmost limits the endurance
of any rider. And because a tired
man is likely to wabble and because
a wabble means a SPILL there are
fine possibilities for excitement in
Tuesday nights races.
The MotordrOme purse will be es-
pecially interesting because it will
bring to focus the speed rays from
the three scintilating stars of the
local track - Mcneil, Graves and
Richards. At the last meet the ma
chimes of Mcneil and Graves went
punk at the last minutes and Rich
ards romped. This time they will
have their machines in condition
again and well tuned up. Mcneil has
had run of especially hard luck this
season, but he believes il has turned
at last. If it has Jock will make il
exciting. for Mcneil has the fastest
machine at the traCk-when the
blamed thing works
Graves has a new Excelsior,
boat" that has proved, at the Chi
tionally fast 1t went bloOie at the
last races, but millionaire Morty"
believe he has it tinkered up now to
point where nothing can happen
to it, provided il stays on two wheels
A third big attraction of the even
ing will be the 4-cOrnered match race
There is no telling which riders will
be put in this, but Manager Prince
will get his stars together for this
one and give the public the greatest
race possible.

VI Ar On CLUBS
ONLY BEGUN,
SAY POLICE
Three Men Arrested Wednesday
Charged With Violating City
Liquor Ordinance.

Police authorities Thursday said
the fight to be waged against Illegal
operation of locker clubs has just
started, and everyone arrested would
be fully prosecuted.
The fight began Wednesday night
when J. A. Cheney, cashier of the
Metropolitan Club, and two men who
say they are members, We're arrested.
The men gave their names as j. l..
Parks 131 Nelson street, and M. A.
Trout, of ITS Spring street.
Cheney was released after a con-
ference with Chief Jett on a bond of
$500. Parks and Trout were released
on 800 bond each. The cashier was
brought to headquarters a few min
utes after midnight. The two other
men had been arrested earlier.
Charges of violating the city liquor
ordinance were made against all the
men and Recorder Broyles will try
them Thursday. The police base the
charge on what they say was an il
legal sale Of whisky. Parks, the po
lice say, sent Trout, who is said not
to be a member of the club, to the
clubrooms to get some whisky for a
friend who was passing through At
! lanta.
The police say Parks gave Trout
an order for the liquor. Returning
from the club Trout is supposed to
| have turned the bottle over to Parks,
who in turn gave it to his friend
Cheney admits having given the
whisky to Trout who, he admits,
brought an order from Parks Parks
and Trout deny the charges Cheney
said that inasmuch as Parks main
tanned locker in the Metropolitan
| Club, he could send for any supplies
! the locker might contain.
| Headquarters men declare this is
not the only offense of the club and
say that evidence along this line will
| be produced in court J. A Smith,
| president of the club, and other off,
| GERS, were subpenaed.

NEW YORK, Nov. 6.-New York's
revolt against Tammany and the
overthrow Of that organization at the
polls was followed to-day by the for
nation Of plans to make the rout
complete. Leaders of the independ-
ent faction Of the Democratic party,
who have been muttering mutiny
against the regular organization since

agreed that the best way to depose
Charles F. Murphy, leader Of Tam

powerful Tammany influence.
But Tammany is going to 1ght Tor
its life and is going to fight hard.
