R. Par- dlngton. Acting Chairman of the V'an- derbllt Cup Commission, was here by appointment with Gov. Stokes to-day, and received the approval of the Governor for tho use of New Jersey roads for the Van- derbilt Cup automobile race on Oct. 19, the elimination race to be run over the same course on Oct.

12. The course has not been announced, and will not be selected' until special legislation is obtained at this session of tho Legislature to allow municipalities to accept the provisions of tho coming new law. That statute will provide for permission to close certain Improved county roads during tho running of both race. It 1 expected that action will bo taken on July 3. Wilbur F.

Sadler, President of the New Jersey Associated Automobile Clubs, accompanied Mr. Partington to he Gov ernor's office and urged the Chief Ex ecutive to accede to the plan to bring the annual cup race to New Jersey. He pointed out to the Governor that $000,000 was brought to the County of Nassau on Long Island last year. The Governor was at first averse to the plans, but whoa the financial prospects of the race were presented, and the assurance of Mr. Partington that all expenses incident to the race, auch as repairing damage to roads, employment of police, would be met by the Cup Commission, the Governor said he.

would send a special message to both houses of the Legislat ure urging the passage of -the measure legalising the closing of county roads. providing the proper bill were ready for Introduction. Gov. Stokes refused to recommend a mandatory law, saying that ho wa op posed to such legislation. The matter, he explained, was largely a local i one, qua the Board of Freeholders must vote on the proposition to close the roads selected for races.

The Governor concluded by saying there would probably be no opposl tlon. The new law simply will allow Boards of Freeholders permission to close country road during the races. So far a guarding the course is concerned, tho Governor is agreeable to calling out the militia for tho service, all expenses be ing, of course, paid by the Cup Commis sion. 1 While at the present moment no course Is announced, the officials of Mercer, Es ex. Union, and Monmouth Counties have been communicated and Mr, Sadler said to-night that good courses had been mapped out In tho counties named, all giving an average circuit of thirty miles.

State Road Commissioner Elijah Hutch inson said to-night that the counties where the course Is laid must have tho best kind of agreements that the' roads will be put in good shape after; the races are over. He cites the fact tnat aucomo- blllsts returning through New Jersey from the race on Long Island last year threw thousands of ton of stone off im proved roads, leaving many of them worn down to the first course of rock, and that Union, Middlesex, and Monmouth Coun ties this year have been obliged to expend thousands ot dollars to repair them.
