Of the Automobile Club OF America admits that
he will enter the industry OF manufacturing au-
tomobiles under rather new conditions Mr.

bile manufacturing scheme. and a company has
been formed TO reproduce in this country a GER
tain style OF foreign machine OF the racing sort
Mr.. Bostwick says that the machines which he
Will turn out Will be more for general use such
touring, than for special speed on the track
and road. The machines. which viii be
manufactured near Mr. B0stwick's country
home at Mamaroneck viii be built on ideas
which have come 10 Mr.. Bostwick through his
experience in handling the machines. The au-
tomobiles viii be OF four cylinder order of the
gasoene sort and VIII be Of tonneau body
When wanted for only two people or for speed
ing the tonneau in the rear can be removed
In speaking Of his plans last night Mr.. Bost-
wick said that he did not intend 20 break into
the automobile manufacturing business as has
been rumored. but that he simply intended 20
make about twenty-five machines for private
distribution amorg his friends. I'm case the
machine prove TO be as satisfactory as we hope"
said Mr.. Bostwick, there Is no telling to what
my venture may lead" Mir. Bostwick admitted
that in the future, IL there was a positive de-
mand for the machines. they might be offered
for sale 10 the general public.
Mr.. Bostwick has been OF the most de-
voted enthusiasts Of the new sport He owns
many machines, including tricycles. and he has
been one Of the first 10 subscribe and take part

OF the early platoon who had been assembling
in the back room, had darted out of the station
when they heard the cry of alarm.
Captain Price stepped to the street and ex
