The complete success of the new
fuel while on the 265G-uiilc public
lest and tine advantages gained
through its use were well described
in the following dispatch which the
correspondent of the New York Sun
sent to his paper at the conclusion OF
the tour:
a feature of the tour which was
watched with special interest was
that the White Steamer used kero-
sene. Or coal OIL as fuel instead OF
gasoline. The new fuel worked
spIendidly throughout the 2650-mile
journey, and all claims made in it's
behalf were fully proven. First CT
all, as regards cheapness, the White
driver secured kerosene all along the
route from 6 cents 10 10 cents cheap
e. per gallon than was paid for gaso-
line. Secondly, the new fuel was
handled without any precautions, and
it was not unusual to see kerosene
being poured into the fuel tank while
the crew of the car ard IN interested
crowd stood By with lighted cigars
and cigarettes. At the finish of the
tour, the White was the only Car per-
nlittcd by the authorities TO enter
Convention Hall, where the technical
examination took place, without
draining it's fuel tank. Thirdly. the
new fuel proved to be absolutely
without smoke Or smell. Fourthly,
kerosene could be purchased at what
ever part of the route was most con-
venient. and not once during the trip
through the ten States OF the Middle
West was there found a grocery store
where kerosene was not readily and
cheaply Obtainable. Finally, the

a particularly interesting feature
Of the new White Steamer is that
either kerosene or gasoline may be
used as fuel. The necessary adjust

The most interesting announce.
the automobile industry was un-
doubtedly that made month or two
ago to the effect that the new models
of the White Steam Cars could be run
on kerosene, or coal oil, instead OF
gasoline. Everyone at once recog-
nized that the use OF the new fuel
would add materially to the advan-
tagcs which the White already pos
sessed over other types OF cars.
There were some people, however,
who were sccrtical rs to whether Or
not the new fuel could be used with
complete success. ard, therefore. the
makers of the White Car, the White
Company, OF Cleveland. Ohio, deter
mined to make q public demonstra-
ton OF the new fuel in the 1909 Gid
den Tour.
From the standpoint of the public,
no test more satisfactory could have
been selected. First Of all. the dis
tance covered on the Glidden Tour,
from Detroit to Denver and thence to
Kansas City, was 1850 miles. This
was certainly more than sufficient to
bring out any weaknesses. if such had
existed. Still more important was
the fact that the car was at all times
while on the road under the supervi-
sion of observers named by those
who entered other contesting cars.
Therefore, it would have been impos-
sible for the driver OF the White to
have even frightened bolt without
the fact being noted ard penalty in
flicted. At night the cars were
guarded by Pinkerton detectives and
