Mnlti-mjrionaires rubbed shoulders
with ordinary m|ilionaires at the New
ark automobile show today. The at
tendance was large, as usual. and.
Judging from present indications. the
men behind the show, as well as the
exhibitors, will reap Il rich profit.
Foremost among the features OF the
show Is the fact that it is a buying
show and in this respect 1t equals
and perhaps SURPRISES any OF the New
York exhibitions of the fall. In the
two days that the show has been IN
progres more than $4,000 worth OF
cars have been scld, n sales which
are pending will bring the total up to
the Si50.000 mark by tonight. Dealers
who are taking part say that they
have mover participated in an exhibit
ton where the buying interest has
been so keen, and many of the dealers
believe tia more than $500. 600 worth
of automobiles will ave been disposed
of during the week. In support of this
outlook there have been more than three
hundred demonstrations given since
the show opened, and a large percent
age of these wcro to real buyers.
one dealer said last night that he
bad made more sales during the two
days of the local show than in the
whole week of the Madison square
Garden event. and this Is the feeling
throughout the exhibition. Every
dealer has already transacted sufficient
business to pay the cost OF his en-
trance, and from now on sales win be
profitable. Not only IS the outlook for
sales during the week bright. but
many prospects have been puearthod

AlRsHlP OF THE FUTURE

New York, Oct. 2.--Octave Chanute, the.
aviator, has returned to New York from
Washington und Is making arrange
ments for the contests to be held at
Norris park for prizes offered by him.
Mr.. Chanute was a close observer of
all the flights made at Fort Myor by
{ orville Wright and was present when
the deplorable accident happened TO the
Wright machine.
.sIn tho aeronautic world the accident
has already been forgotten Insofar as
IT exerts any detrimental influence upon
the progress of the science, said Mr.
Chanute. Such an accident would not
happen in just that manner once IN u
sllfe time. The principles Of aviation are
in nowise affected and tho only effect
of ii will be to make for greater care
IN the mechanical construction OF
machines. sf
Mr. Canute said that he believed tho
successful aeroplaue of the future
should be one capable of holding at least
three passengers
For army and naval purposes" he
said 1T would seem that three men
are Indispensable. one to operate the
machine, one to make observations and
one to communicate important informa-
ton This would be done by means of
wagging or wireless telegraphS. OF
course. an aeroplane could hardly re
ceve wireless messages. but think
messages might readily be sent from
