Darn y Oldfloll broko his own nnd
llio world's record for n mllo on a
v.lrmilnr track ut Portland Saturday
on tho IrvliiKton courso In his I'our
om "Uroon DniKon" racing enr, low
orlutf tliu previous Gil-second ivcord
to 0:52 JJ-G.
Ho nuulo this marvelous tlmo In
tho second mllo of his tlireo-mllo
raco against Wllllum Wallace, who
drovo Inmnn's 70-horso powor
rhomns In thV socond heat of tho,
Flostn $2000 BwoupstakoB. On tho
II ret tlmo at omul, with a short roll
lUK Hturt, Olllold crossed tho mark
at torrlttlo spood at 1 uilnnto tint,
and took tho llrst torn In ono swoop
liiB skid, throwing dust nnd dirt ovor
tho fomw, fully 100 foot awny. Ho
itovor slackened speed this lap, nnd
came sliding around tho last curve
nnd down tho homo strotoh at u speed
fcrwitor than ovor aeon by nny ono of
the thousands of spectators nnd
across tho lluo In G2 2-5 seconds for
that mllo. In tho last mllo of tho
raco. hnvlug a lonir load, ho slack
ened spaed, nnd inado It In 59 boo
unds, flnl&hln tho throo miles In
1:51 2-5.
This was tho first day of tho auto
mobllo speed contest glwn uudor
tho nusplcos of tho Portlaud Auto
mobllo Olub, nnd morv than 4500
Duoplo wltuossod tho exhibition of
:tho various cars. Tho large graft
adnnd was crowded to overflowing,
aa about 1,00 of Portia' iMt
machine wc scttfl arwai'tk
tlmo stand In tho Inner Hold. A
larKO crowd was scnttored all uIouk
tho fonco, oxcopt on tho curvis, whoro
it wns considered dnngorous nnd
thoy wero kopt nwny by the police.
Tho Kroatest Interest of tho day
una contorod on Unrnoy Oldflold nnd
In Druno Solhol, driver of tho "Red
Devil." Most of tho spectators had
no Idea of real speed until thoy had
non those two lly nround tho track
In a cloud of dusc In tholr sopnrato
exhibition runs. Thoro Boomed to bo
something rndlcnlly wrong with Sel
bed's car, as ho could not como near
his oustomnry tlmo In tho day's
rncos. Tho enr could bo seon at tlmos
lo bnlk and slacken speed. In his ox.
hlhltlon ho only mndo tho two miles
In 2:08. Oldllold did not crowd his
car In his exhibition, but mndo three
miles in 2:52 2-5, keeping his prom
ise of making It under throo min
utes. Fkvstn $2000 Sweepstakes.
This raco hold tho surprlso of tho
afternoon. Wallace, n comparative
ly new man In the Bpood buslnoss,
beat Solbol's "Rod Dovll" In tho first
heat Wallace drovo R. D. Inman's
Thomns 70 horse powor maohlno.
Tho "Hod Dovll" luild tho load until
wtthln about half a mllo of tho finish
In tho third mllo, when It seomed to
slnckwn speed nnd Wnllaco drow up,
passed him and finished with a good
load In 3:12 2-5.
It wns In tho second boat of this
raco that Ofldflold shattered tho 53-
socond record, as described boforo.
Wnllaco really had no chanco at all,
as his mnchluo had not yet mndo a
mllo under tho mlnuto mark, and tho
lltrlo greon car drow away from him
from tho first, Oldflold drov a prot
ty race, novor soomlng to renllro tho
oxtromo danger. Ho Always drives
In a greon coat, tho color of hlJ car,
and with no bead covering except
goggles, And holding r halt-smoked
cigar In kls mouth. Tho "Greea
Pragcm" Is sot as Urge a car as
MtH be lwagloed, and la built low
juul clo8o to tho ground, overythlng
being sacrificed for speed. Tho two
radiators In front nro sot nt an angle,
forming n sharp point, which helps
In cutting tho air resistance. Tho
car Is battered up, nnd dooks as If It
hnd seen much service. Oldflold nov
or loavos it out or ms signt.
Wnllaco Smashes 23-Mllo Record.
In tho 25-mllo ondurnnco raco Wal
lace, In n Popo-Hartford, succeeded
In loworlng another record. Wnllaco
brought down tho record about 30
seconds, making tho 25 mllos In
20:0 4-5. Tho host previous tlmo
nuulo In this class of car was 29:47
3-5, mado at L03 Angoles. A Plerco
Arrow car was tho only machlno that
Wafllnco didn't pass nt least once, It
finished about half a mllo behind
him.
Thoro woro 10 races on tho day's
program ,but no other records woro
lowored.
Second Day's Races.
Tho second day's automobile races
woro pulled oft Sunday on tho Irving
ton course As a wholo thoy woro
not tho success of thoso of Saturday.
Solbol's "Rod oDvll" hoke down on
his first tlmo nround for an exhibi
tion run, and was complotoly out.
I Ho had troublo with his machine Sat
urday.
Old field's machlno always ran per
fectly, oxcopt that In his first exhibi
tion today a front tiro burst, causing
somo ilolay, but ho drovo his flvo
mllo exhibition lntor In 4:45, low
orlng his Saturday's record flvo seconds.
Wallace Ilivaks Anotlior Record,
Wallace broko another rocord
driving tho samo car that ho drovo in
Saturdays 25-mllo race. Ho made
10 miles in an exhibition In 10:56
2-5, about 15 seconds faster than
any previous record.
Thoro woro a number of other
races, but sot as many as on Satur
day's card, No other records wero
broke.
Whether merely technical defects
In a printed form shall defeat throo
roforondum potltlons of over 0000
voters each, Is tho question to be de
cided by Judgo Galloway, of tho equi
ty department of the circuit court.
Tho caso camo up for argument on
mnndamus proceedings this after
noon, In tho Instance of tho petition
for tho referendum on tho Universi
ty tax of $125,000 per nnnum, which
was rejected by Secretary of Stato
Benson, upon tho opinion of Attorney
Genornl Crawford, and In two In
junction cases.
Two other referendum contests
were argued boforo tho court. Mn
larkey and Logan appeared to se
cure Injunctions againBt tho placing
on tho bnllot of tho proposed law to
break up tho graft supposed to ac
cruo to Sheriff Stevens, of Portland,
In tho boarding of prisoners. Thoy
also demanded an injunction against
placing tho official freo pass bill on
tho ballot by the secretary of stato.
That Is anotlior graft tho referendum
Is aimed at and will destroy if loft
'to a voto of the people. County
Judgo Webster nrgued In favor of tho
people having a right to kill tho
Slovens graft, regardloss of technical
objections.
Tho big fight of tho day was put
up by Tlllmon Ford and M. E. Poguo,
to compel tho secretary of stato to
put tho Unlvorslty tax bill on tho bal
lot. Attornoy-Goncrnl Crawford and
his assistants, Vnn Wlnklo nnd Bing
ham, appenred for. the secretary of
s'tnto, and to sustain tho University
managers in kcoplng tholr bill from
going to a popular vote.
Tho main question in tho last caso
Is whether a now tax can bo Imposed
on tho people without their consent
being secured under tho roforondum
clauso of tho constitution.
