CAR GENERATES POWER
Arrives in washington on way to
X. {. for observation-disclosures Line.

Washington, Aug. "a strange
gas-electric railway car, which re-
ouires no trolley or third rail, but
generates its own power from a gaso-
line engine. arrived in Washington at
noon today from Philadelphia en-
route to Kansas City. where it is to
be put in operation on the Missouri &
Kansas Interurban railway.
The car remained in Washington
two hours and was the object of much
interest. being inspected by prominent
local street-car and trolley-line Of
The front end of the car is given
| over to the engine and machinery
with which the car is run. There is a
1OO-horse-power gasoline engine with
four cylinders. and, connected direct
" with the shaft of that is a dynamo,
which generates the electricity with
which the car is run. The power is
controlled just the same as in a troll
ley car, with a handle on a generator.
There is tank capacity for gasoline
sufficient to run the car 500 miles
Underneath the car is a large stor-
age battery, and whenever all the
electric power generated by the dyna-
mo is not used up in keeping the car
i'll motion. as when the car is going
| down grade or slackening up, the cur
rent is run into the storage batteries.
When the car comes to hill and
more current is needed than that sup
| piled by the dynamo, additional power
is taken from the storage batteries. In
this way the engines do not have to be
so large as to be burdensome.
This car does away with power sta
lions, third rails and trolley wires. It
makes f1fty-five miles an hour on level
stretches of track. but the ordinary
speed will be about forty miles an
hour.
Arrangements have been made, by
request of officials, to allow traction
and railroad men along the route to
the Missouri city an opportunity to
see the workings of the new car.

Los Angeles, Cal, Aug 9.-Frankie

when he was beaten in twenty fast
rounds by Harry Baker. just graduated
from the amateur ranks. There is no
question as to the justice of the deci-

Bakers the former amateur darling
in at Will and placing his left to the
head and face and occasionally landing
stiff rights to the jaw. while Neil was
wholly unable to land any of his
vicious swings and was kept on the
run around the ring in an effort to
catch Baker.
Bakers blocking was a revelation.
When forced into tight corner Baker
covered up and Neil could not hurt
him. Neil showed strong from the
ninth TO the seventeenth round, but at
no time had any great advantage. The
final round was the fastest fighting
ever seen here. When the men left
the ring Neil had one eye closed, while
the other was swollen, and his nose
and mouth showed the effects of the
hard work. Baker showed no marks.
Neil said when he heard the decision:
Il forced the fight all the way and
was robbed"
