AN AMERICAN INVENTION.
Britons Experimenting with n Motor
Car to he Used by the Army.

LONDON, Nov. H.-American enterprise
in Great Britain now promises to revolu-
tionize the methods of the War Office. The
problem of transportation of stores. guns
and men over country having no railroads
has long exercised the army exports. Trac-
ton engines. bullocks. elephants. horses
and mules have been tried with only mod
crate success. With the view of displacing
these a series Of experiments is being made
in England before a War Office commits
sion, in which an American motor car,
suitable for war service, having on board
the driver, an American. and the inventor,
attained a speed of thirty miles an hour on
grass, going over obstacles and undula-
tons without the slightest difficulty or in
jury. Further trials are still necessary,
but the British officers were fayorabiy I'M
pressed with the performance of the mo-
tor car. and are likely to recommend its
adoption by the War Office.
