BIC RACING BILL
FOR SATURDAY;
RICHARDS COPS

N7HEN the Atlanta Motordrome
wv is thrown open Saturday night
for another evening Of racing
by electric light, the now historic duel
between Jock Mcneil and his ]. A. P.
motor and Tex" Richards and his
Indian will be resumed They had
another tilt last night, before a really
brilliant audience that cirCled the
quarter mile track four deep, but it
wasn't conclusive
Jocks motor, which seems to be as
delicate as it is fast, threw a charley
boss in the final heat OF the Georgia
Sweepstakes. and Richards romped
home a winner.
In the Motordrome Purse Mcneil
was forced to ride on borrowed ma
chine. Saturday night he and Rich
ards VIII settle down to 1t in earnest
to determine the best man at the
track.
Richards Big Winner.
Richards swept it clean Tuesday
night in a series Of races that KEEP
the nerves of a huge audience ATTN
gle and stirred their enthusiasm to
pitch that has not been reached here
in the memory of the modern speed
fan.
In the Sweepstakes he won a quail
flying heat from Renel and Shields
In the finals he met Renel.s Lockner
and Mcneil and won by a Comforta-
BILE margin, though It was a thrilling
contest. In the Motordome Purse
Mcneil Con borrowed machine) and
Lockner thrashed it out with Rich
ards, and though they pressed him
close and made him ride the four
miles in 1904 2-5, they could not over
haul him.
In the special match race ReneI de-
feated Harry Glenn, who in turn beat
Luther. This race created vast en-
thusiasm.
Real Society Affair
Altogether, the meet was a grand
success and established motordrome
racing in Atlanta on the firmest sort
of basis. The very highest class of
amusement lovers patronized the af-
fair, and there hasn't been such a
gathering of automobiles since Speed
way days as was packed in around
the mOtOrdrOme Tuesday night.
Night racing is amazingly spectac-
ular. The lights, the music, the hum
of the motors, the pound of the tires
on the board track, the swish of the
wind as the drivers tear by the bril-
liant audience, the cheering and ap-
plauding, and, on the steep board
track the neck risking, blood stirring
contests between expert riders trav-
cling at a speed so great as to be
unCanny.
There is small wonder that motor
drome racing is sweeping the country
as no sport has swept it in very many
years and that Atlanta is more stirred
up over it than it has been over any
sport except baseball since Father
Chadwick was a little boy.

BIG VICTORY FOR
Burnley COMPANY
CONVICTION JUDGE REFUSES TO
APPOINT RECEIVER FOR
SOCIETY,".
PRAISES THE MANAGEMENT
DECLARES BUSINESS OF COM.
PANY HAS BEEN CONDUCTED
WELL BY LE5Us AND OTHER
OFFICIALS.

CONVICTION, KY, July 4.-In an
opinion covering ten typewriter
pages Judge Matt Harbeson, in the
Kenton county circuit court, today
handed down an order declining to
appoint receiver for the Burley To-
bacco company in the case Of Elmer
B. Stansifer, on behalf Of the stock
holders of the Burley Tobacco COM
pany and on behalf of the Burley
Tobacco Society, against Clarence
LeBus and about fifty other defend
ants. The order of the court was the
motion Of the plaintiff for the appoint
ment Of a receiver is overruled.
Judge Harbeson's opinion is an inter
esting compilation of the various
phases Of the case heard last week.
He gives a history of the formation
Of the Burley Tobacco company, or
ganized to fight the so-calIed tobacco
trust" He said in part:
"There is no evidence introduced
which would indicate that the assets
Of the Burley Tobacco company, con-
sisting of factory, storenouses, loose
leaf warehouses and stock on hand, is
Of less value than $1,5O0OOO, while
there is evidence to the effect that
these assets may be worth nearly ST.
100000, while its Indebtedness is only
S51S,OO0, or less than one-third Of its
assets. In these investments there is
no evidence of any unfair dealing or
even bad business judgment but, on
the contrary, indicates the same at
tention and care upon the part OF the
defendants that would be given to
their own funds.
According to the evidence the as
sets Of the company are not merely
much larger than it's debts, but also
larger than the capital stock paid in
by the defendants. The evidence,
therefore, fails to sustain the allega-
ton that there is any danger of loss
or injury resulting to the plaintiffs or
the Burnley Tobacco company by rear
son Of the continuation OF It's affairs
In the hands Of the defendants until
the election is held for the board Of
directors" ,

not believe he will live long. His
birthday was wednesday, July 20,
and the occasion was not one Of great
rejoicing, but of resignation for the
cardinal.
II will soon be an octogenarian, ="
said the cardinal smilingly in his
Baltimore home, "and nature must
take its course. Almighty God has
blessed me with a long life, and l
am ready to answer whenever he sees
fit TO call me to render an account OF
my stewardship"
4 think that IL will not be long
now" he said slowly, and there was
no sorrow In his voice-just resigna-
tion.
when the call comes think Il will
be a sudden one. We should all be
ready for the call, because we don't
know how soon or suddenly II may
come"
The visitor asked the cardinal II he
was not in good health.
Yes" answered the cardinal. Il
still feel strong and capable Of per-
forming several more years OF labor,
but / think l will soon pass away.
Perhaps might live ten years longer
we are never sure"
