Medium Cars Hard Hit,

From observations made at the New
York shows it seems likely that the finan-
cial stringency will not affect the sales OF
the highest priced cars nor of the loves,
priced so much as it will those OF medium
price. The argument is that those OF
great wealth will still be able to buy what
they please, while the buyers of cheap
cars, being as rule not investors. but
persons of moderate though certain in
comes. will not b, seriously affected. The

who make much morey. but whose earn
ings vary and who live up to their in
comes and almost never have a surplus.

GLIDDEN TOUR TALK.
Makers Want Change in plan
Next Year.

There is question and it is agitating
the touring motorists of America. The
question has to do with the 1903 tour of
the American Automobile Association
The question has to do with the plan of
operation. and it has to do directly with
the advisability of a central point with
a tour out and back each day ranging
from 80 to 200 miles. or a tour straight
away. as has been carried out in the past
The question has several sides. The
amateur tourists really desire a tour
which will start some where and go some
where. while the automobile makers of
the country want a tour which will re-
duce the expense to a minimum. There
can be little question that the annual
tour for the Glidden trophy has come
to be a business-like affair for business
men, and that majority of the entries
are made for business purposes. The
amateurs number about one in ten of the
entries. The makers must therefore be
consulted. Providing the trip goes
through the country. the suggestion has
been made that it follow the shore line of
the country from Virginia to Maine. and
providing II converges nightly, the sugges-
ton is made that it start at Mount Wash
ington and make the Mount Wash
ington Hotel the nightly gathering point.
The makers of the Great Arrow car. the
George N Pierce Company. who Won the
Glidden trophy twice and had four cars
in last years tour with perfect score,
have been asked for an opinion, as have
other makers. and upon the receipt OF
the opinion of the makers the decision
will be made.

OLD "VET" OF THE CRAFT.
Elwood Haynes Pioneer Among Au-
tomobile Builders.

Elwood Haynes. tho veteran of builders
Of automobiles and we'll known as thu
pioneer in the automobile field, cons nnted
to talk during the New York show, and
grew reminiscent. although as he said
Ito become reminiscent is said by many
to be sign of old age" Mr. Haynes de-
signed the first automobile in 1899 and
completed it in 1894. This was single
cylinder affair with high wheels. In 1886
M Haynes entered Haynes in the
first contest of the times, the Times-Her-
aid contest in Chicago. The machine he
entered had double opposed cylinders. In
the same year he received $500 frequent
ly for exhibiting at state fairs. and peo-
pie came from all around to see the won
der. The Haynes went the rounds of the
fairs. In 1900 the first Haynes car was
shown at Madison Square Garden. and
has had plac" of honor ever since at all
shows. The first car was of seven horse
power. and this car was turned out
steadily for four years. In 1860 the
Haynes entered Brooklyn n. Y. and was
the first automobile seen there. The fact
that the car was driven into Brooklyn
was so remarkable as to earn pages in
the papers. In 1896 Mr. Haynes made
the first side entrance body, and today's
models are but a reversion to this type
In 1897 Mr.. Haynes introduced ignition
by low tension magnetic and used this
until 1903. when 1t was abandoned for
the high tension, jump spark ignition
since used. In 1904 the first four-cylinder
Haynes car was shown.

for touring cars. Is not so much out OF
the possibilities as might be thought, for

1904 When Mr.. Vanderbilt completed
that great drive other autoists asked him.
with their breath coming in short gasps.
whether he had been able to remain on
the ground all through Mr.. Vanderbilt
assured his friends that his car jumped
oftentimes almost foot from the ground
and the entire world cried Fake that

that year. All this is history, but today
they are about to require a car to qualify
at Ormond to do twenty miles at the rate
of one hundred miles an hour. and few
wonder at the requirement. believing that
it will be done That is rate of 80 sec
onds to the mile and is not considered so
very much out of the ordinary. The COM
ing Ormond meet may even see the great
record Of two miles in IS 40 seconds cut
into very considerably, although freak
cars are to be barred from the events.
Stock cars are likely to beat the Wander
bilt record of - seconds. and special rae
ing cars constructed in America are likely
to beat the great steam record of Mar
riott. Who is there to tell of the won
derful speed possible when the American
makers make their trials? And who is
there to tell when Europe sends over Ks
best to oppose the Americans in their
onward progress? The battle of the Amer
lean and European giants and the battle
against time will be noteworthy this year
on the tide-rolled sands, and history will
go forward yet another notch. The time
is ripe in March for great doings, and
both the American makers and the inn
porters are ready to give old Father Time

are first class in every way for the Amer
lean and the European makers are pretty
evenly matched, and the contests are GER
tain to be the closest in history. The
time for the meet could not have been
arranged better. for March is really one
of the finest In the south. and at that
time the visitors will have recovered from
their pre- sent panicly feeling, and will be
in shape to take things easy and enjoy
themselves.
