AUTOIST KILLED
CROSSING TRACK
At RIO PUERC0
Samuel BrOadbridge, Ell PaSo
Salesman Is Struck BY
Train While Driving From
Here to Ell PaSo Monday.

Samuel Broadbridge, salesman
of the Welch Bedding company, of
Ell Paso, was instantly killed yes
terday afternoon when his auto
mobile was struck by an eastbound
Santa Fe train near Rio Puerco.
Trainmen were unable to state last
night whether Broadbridge's car
stalled on the track and was hit by
the engine before he could get out
of the car or whether he misjudged
the speed of the train and was in
motion when struck.
Broadbridge was in Albuquerque
yesterday in the interests of his
company and called on several
local dealers, among them Strong's
furniture store where he sold a
bill of goods. Strongs undertaking
department was notified of the ac-
cident, but a few hours after the
salesman left their store. The body
will be brought here by Strong
Brothers from Laguna, where it
was taken by the train crew after
the fatal accident.
Deputy Sheriff c. J. Stagner, of
Laguna, took charge of the body
upon its arrival at Laguna. Coro-
ner's inquest will be held in that
city before the body is shipped
here.
The deceased Is we'll known in
Albuquerque and has many bust
ness and social friends here. His
wife and family reside in El Paso,
The body will probably be shipped
there tonight.

HUSBAND AND WIFE
ALLOWED SEPARATE
INCOME TAX RETURN

Community income tax returns
will be accepted by the internal
revenue department. according to a
wire received at the department
offices yesterday. The effect of the
ruling of the Washington office in
recognizing the New Mexico state
law is that both husband and wife
can file separate returns on COM

at the revenue office yesterday
that while this ruling would have

the last year in which the A. A. A..
put on an official battle for the
championship.
The speed pack had been through
four championship events and came
up to Thanksgiving Day with no
one having the title clinched. Amy
one OF four men could win II in
the final at Los Angeles. By virtue
OF his great victory at Indianapolis
Chevrolet had the edge, but Milton,
Murphy and De Palma each had q
look in. De Palma's was an outside
chance. He had to win and Chew
roiet and Milton had TO break down
for the veteran to land the cham
pionship title. But De Palma came
up to the championship Anal with
out a car to drive. Someone
bungled at the last hour and shipped
De Palma's car back to France from
New York instead OF to Montreal
as had ben ordered, and Ralph was
out of 1t.
FATE sHUFFLEs CARDS.
So IL came about that Chevrolet,
Milton and Murphy were the finalists
and Fate shuffled the cards so that
Milton broke down. Murphy finished
only fourth and the seasons honors
went to a man killed fighting for
the coveted glory. and yet who did
not finish in the race that settled
the title dispute.
Chevrolet met his fate in the latter
| end OF the race when he crashed into
Eddie ODonnell on q turn. The
| champion was instantly killed and
O'Donnell fingered to the next day.
Roscoe Sarles in a Duesenberg won
the race, with Miller second, Hearne
third, and Murphy fourth.
| Analysing the seasons battle for
the championship title, 1t will be seen
that the results at indianapolis really
decided 1t, for the 1000 points given
the winner of the Memorial Day
sweepstakes was an advantage that
could not be overcome. 1t was Chew
rolet's only good race, for in the other
two championship events in which he
competed he ran seventh at Tacoma
and eighth at Elgin-enough, how
ever, to give him total of 1890
points as against Millions $50 and
Murphy's 885 and thus win the title.
or the other two, Milton and Muir
ply, must admit that Murphy's
showing was more consistent than
that of Milton-in the championship
events at any rate. Murphy won the
first race at Los Angeles last Feb
ruary, was fourth at Indianapolis,
sixth at Tacoma, third at Elgin. and
fourth on THANKSGIVING Day, while
Millions tab shows a first at Tacoma,
third at Indianapolis, and a second
at Elgin. In both Los Angeles races
he failed to finish.
Going outside Of the championship
schedule, however, the books show
that Milton won the race at Union
town, but with Murphy second each
time. And at Fresno, on the new
one-mile board track, Murphy won a

unfortunately, counts In the champion

THE SEASON DISAPPOINTING.
It must be admitted that the racing
season OF 1890 was somewhat disap-
pointing. The magnificent speedways
at New York and Chicago had been
dismantled and Cincinnau's was out
OF commission. which, OF course. re-
duced the number OF meets possible.
And so the championship title battle
was confined to five events-two at
Los Angeles. the big AFFAIR at Indian
apolis. Tacoms's annual meet. and the
Elgin road race. which was handled
by the Chicago Motor Club.
1t might be explained here that
the A. A. A. championship Is decided
on a points system. Certain races,
where the prize money Is sufficiently
large, are designated as champion
ship events. Points for positions are
awarded according to the prominence
of the events. Indianapolis, for in
stance, meant 1000 points for first
because of the class of the field and
the size of the purse. while in each
of the other four races only 500 points
were given for first place.
And yet, despite the few meets run.
IL must be admitted that the racing
season was a successful one from the
box Offices viewpoint. The attend
ance at each meet was large and the
public testified its approval Of the
sport by packing the stands. The
only fly In the ointment was the fall
ure of the manufacturers to support
racing. Missing were the teams OF
yesteryear-Nationa Marmon, Stutz.
Packard. Hudson, Mercer, Lozier, and
others which used to add luster to
the speedway battles.
FIGHT AMONG BUILDERS.
So 1t was a night among builder
of racing machines, but II was a rea
battle just the same, with the honor
going to Fred Duesenberg. who may
we'll be called the savior of racing
in this country. Duesenberg provided
mounts for Murphy. Milton. O'Donnell
and others, and so the end OF the
season brings to him the champion
ship laurels of manufacturing
nature.
Chairman Kennerdelrs count show
that points were awarded for thirty
nine places In the i've events. Out OF
a possible thirty-nine, then, Duesen
berg cars won thirteen for q total
of 2,735 points as against seven for
