WHITE STEAMERS
REACH THE CITY
New Model Received by the
Local Branch House
Yesterday
Motorists Who Have Seen the
Latest Steam Creation
Are Enthusiastic
By R. R. L'HOMMEDIEU

The first of the 1910 model White
motor cars to arrive on the coast were
unloaded in this city yesterday and are
the White company. corner of Market
street and Van Ness avenue. The new
machines are of steam motive power,
the 20 horsepower type known as the
model 90. This machine is the sue
cessor of the model o of the present
season. The 20 horsepower White gaso-
line car Will arrive in two weeks.
The most important new feature in
the 1910 White steamers viii be. as
already announced, the notifications
may be used as fuel. A noticeable
change in the external appearance of
the car is the Iengthening of the wheel
base to 10 inches. The frame has been
heightened and the power plant moved
back so that the front axle is immedi-
ately under the condenser. and the
shape of the mudguards has been some
what changed. The engine is compound,
vertical and of the same compact con-
struction as in the 1903 models, with a
high pressure cylinder OF "a inch bore,
a low pressure cylinder OF "a inch
bore and a stroke Of inches. The
crank shaft is a short, one piece forg-
ing of tool steel with but two main
| bearings.
A change has been made in the
method of driving the two pumps,
which supply water to the generator.
Instead of being driven from the valve
gear, as In the 1909 engine. they are
| driven from an. eccentric. The gener-
ator is of the usual White construction,
consisting simply OF nine coils of steel
tubing so joined together that in op-
Grafton water is supplied to the upper
coil and steam issues from the lower
coil.
Discussing the prospects for this sea
sons business at his Office yesterday.
; C. A Hawkins, general western sales
manager Of the White company, said:
The White company has doubled it's
manufacturing facilities this year and
will manufacture and sell so per cent
more steam cars than ever before, in
addition to the gas car line. which has
been added. because our gas output
will be surplus product. adding moth
ing to the selling, advertising or ex-
pense Of the management. There is
nothing TO prevent our making and
selling gasoline machines, while our
patents prevent our competitors from
making steamers OF the boilerless type,
such as we manufacture"
