NEW MOTOR CAR
WESTWARD BOUND
"Cuyamaca," improved Model
Carrier in Hartman Service,
Passes Trough Salt Lake.

The "Cuyamaca," one of the latest
improved Hartman motor cars. passed
through Salt Lake yesterday en- route
from Omaha to San Diego on its own
power. The car is to be used out of
San Diego on an interurban line. This
type of motor is particularly interest
ing to people of Utah, because the use
of these cars has been proposed on
several branch lines of the Oregon
Short Line.
The motor car was built ut the Union
Pacific shops at Omaha. It proceeded
the entire distance on its Own power IN
regular train schedule. The Time made
on the trip was not anywhere in pro-
portion to what the car can make. 1t
was delayed by waiting for trains. The
car Travelled only in the daytime, al
though it is equipped with q powerful
headlight and could have Travelled at
night had there been any necessity for
SO doing. The car arrived in Ogden
Sunday evening, and reached Salt Lake
an hour later.
Thomas Chantron, a clerk in the Of
flee of superintendent Stevenson of the
Utah division of the Short Line, ac-
cOmpanied the car from ogden 10 salt
Lake On this trip the car made sixty
was so delayed by passing trains that
it took almost an hour to cover the dis
lance between the two places.
In appearance the top of the motor re-
sembles an inverted yacht. The front
of the car tapers sharply, like the end
of a torpedo. 1t is in the front where
the machinery is. The car IS driven by
a 200 horsepower gasoline engine,
Next to the machinery room is the
smoking compartment, and in the rear
are the seats for the passengers. There
are no vestibules. the seats extending
to the rear of the car. The entrances
are on either side. The car is venti-
lated through the roof, and lighted oy
circular windows on the sides. 1t Is
constructed entirely of steel
One of the greatest advantages of the
new car is its speed. Its limit is
eighty miles an hour, which it reaches
in six car lengths. 1t can be stopped
in 120 feet. The tapering front of the
car offers less resistance to the air and
aids materially in the attainment of
the great speed. The cost OF operating
motor car is comparatively small.
and will not exceed 20 cents mile
The "Cuyamaca" left yesterday
morning for San Diego over the Salt
Lake Route.

Mr.. TiHman reviewed the events of

Wall street with many misdemeanors-
1.-THE profits of this notorious stock
mongering have" he said found their
way into the pockets of the very men
who. with the evil results of their
fraud manifest, pose as 'savioTs' and
'uncrowned kings and are laUded to the
skies when they try to save themselves
from disasters which threatened TO
overwhem them along with their de-
luded victims. One of those 'saviOrs'
had done more than any other of the
money kings to deluge the stock mar
ket with watered stock.
Referring to recent conferences in the
White house to consider legislation, MIR.
Tillman asked why it was THAI the
leaders of the Republican party in the
senate had been ignored.
who is going to be the spaniel mes
senger to bring these bills heTe?" de
manded the senator, looking about the
senate as if waiting for a reply.

ed, amid laughter from all parts of
the chamber.
Beveridge Butts In.
Mr. Beveridge asked the speaEer if
he would name the radical legislation
he had said the president is sending
to the senate. He replied that he dis
agreed with the doctrines to permit
railroads to pool.
Mr. BeYeridge asked whether Mr. Till
man favored the labor legislation pro-
posed by the president.
I shall never yield that one man
shall say to another that he shall not
work, declared Mr. Tillman.
Senator Beveridge made a spirited de-
tense of President Roosevelt and the
Republican party declaring that what
Republican senators was merely an ev-
idence of harmony between the presi-
dent and his party in congress.
BY a slip of the tongue Mr.. Bsver-
idge characterized the South Carolina
senator as the "corn-fed lawyer M.
Tillman objected to that title, bur add
ed that he was mighty fond of corn
bread.
A long review was given b. Mr. Rev
eridge of Democratic policies ana he de-
clared that a conference had been held
in this city for the purpose Of coming
to a plan for asking Mr.. Bryan not
to again be a candidate on the Demo-
cratic ticket; but when Mr. Bryan came

age to tell him what they had planned

malls from Mr.. Tillman. Mr.. McLaurin

that there had never been any idea OF
asking Mr.. Bryan not TO run on the
Democratic ticket.
