SLUMP IN AUTO BUSINESS
Bottom Seems to Have Dropped Out
Notwithstanding Boosting Efforts
of Manufacturers.

New York.--lndication point to the
bottom having fallen out of the auto
mobile business. The manufacturers, it
is reported in trade circles, are making
strenuous efforts to keep up show of
continued prosperity, but it is also said
that they are not selling their product,
but are storing machines throughout the
country at their various agencies to pre-
vent the public realizing the true condi-
tions OF the market.
Several large concerns are laying off
men and giving all sorts of reasons for so
doing except the statement that they are
overstocked. Two or three of the largest
factories recently closed entirely, ostens-
IDLY for the purpose of taking inventory,
but the workmen were not given any
definite time at which to again report
for work, and it is not expected that
these factories will again be in operation
this year.
A well-known automobile agent of this
city said yesterday that all cars would
undoubtedly be selling at from 25 per
cent to so per cent less than present list
prices within the next two or three
months. He added:
"The trouble with the automobile bust
ness is that the farmers and people of
the smaller cities and towns have not
taken as kindly to the idea as was antici-
pated. The farmers find that the cost
of keeping them in repair and operation
is more than the cost OF keeping horses
TO perform the same work, and while
there was, for time, tendency among
the farmers to invest in the machines,
the demand for cars from this class of
buyers has practically stopped, and /
venture to say we will not again sell to
the farmers to any extent until prices
are materially reduced"

Scranton, Pa. Especial Mr.. Roose
welt has turned sociologist. He has for.
saken the field of politics for the time
being and is now social worker. He
came into the heart of the anthracite
coal regions Of Central PENNSYLVANIA to
see how the miners live and what they
do. The Colonel, with all of his charac.
teristic vigor and energy, spent 10 hours
visiting the, homes of the workers, in.
specting the mines themselves and taking
a look into the conditions of the young
women who are employed in the silk
mills near here. He had perfectly bully
time. The mystery of his sudden dis.
appearance from New York has been
solved.
The Colonel admitted that on his way
across the Atlantic six weeks ago he was
attracted by an article in a magazine
describing the folks who live in these
neglected parts. He thought that some.
thing ought to be done for the unfortu-
mates who have no means of real legiti.
mate amusement when they emerge from
the dark recesses of the mines or the
stuffy silk mills. He decided to come up
and see for himself and travel ncognito
