One Of the newcomers in the automo-
bile trade Of this city is the Warrington
Motor Car Company. which has a sales
room at 1911 Fourteenth street. The
company handles the Palmer-SinScr
line and is booking many orders for
this popular make.
For 1915 the Palmer and Singer Manu-
featuring Company is putting on the
market a six-cylinder. 60-horsepower
model and a six-cylinder, 45-horsepow
er model. Both of these will be fitted
with a two and five-psssenger body at
the purchasers option. The Six-6O re-
mains unchanged for 1913 The changes
on the Six-40 or Brighton model arc the
fitting Of thirty siX-inch wheels In place

OF this city for many years and enjoys
wide acquaintance In the business
world of the Capital.
Oldsmobiles. which have for so long
appeared in a number of models. have
been placed on the market this year IN
the single-chassis series OF manufactur-
ing. Six-cylinder cars only will here
after be manufactured by the Olds
Motor Works.
The adoption of six-cylinder chassis
for all styles Of bodies. the refinement
of mechanism. body design and equip
ment, an increased output and cores
pondine decreased price are the fea-
lures Of Oldsmobiles for 1913.
"Oldsmobile progress has been In the
nature of pioneer work. and this Is best
exemplified In the new Oldsmobiie
six" said Mr.. Pollock. while others
are but coming upon their first year OF
construction in response to
a present preference for that type, of
car, the Olds Motor Works points to
fifteen years of experience in pro-
ducing one, two and four-cylinder cars
were pioneers in perfecting the six
cylinder engine and more than four
years ago offered to the public a mos.
successful OIdsmobile six
three body designs - sen-passenger
touring car. five-passenger touring car.
and ur-passenger tourabout.

Styles in Motor
Cars Are Fitting

There are fashions in motor cars the
same as in other matters of human in
terest Styles come and go. People like
this feature one year and that another.
Electric lights are in fashion this year.
With most of the cars you merely press
a button to light your front, side, tail
Or dash lights. The electric self-crankfng
system. for convenience sake, 10 the
accepted vogue this year. 1t is no
longer form to crank a motor by
hand. Pressing a button now cranks II.
Another style of the year Is the de-
gree of comfort embodied in car. So
deep upholstery Is the fashion. To in
sure comfort makers went into the me-
chanics of motor car fashions. They
created longer and wider springs to abb
sorb the jolts of the road. Many made
their cars of greater length. Increased
length gives the flexibility essential to
Noise has gone out of fashion. Many
manufacturers eliminated the cut-out
and embodied other ideas to do away
with noise.
Then comes probably the most i'm
portant of sll-weighing the selection Of
an automobile. 1t is the cars beauty.
The cars most popular are the most
beautiful. This Is because the woman
of the family in perhaps nalf the pur-
chases Of an automobile makes the final
decision The husband narrows the
choice down to three or four cars. and
then his wife Is called upon to visit
those he believes to be mechanically
right. Her decision is made first on
beauty, then on comfort, easy riding
qualities Of the tonneau.

LOCAL MAN OWNS
OLD LETTER FROM
GEO. WASHINGTON
Herman Byrd Has Interest
ing Document From First
President Written to
Governor Morris

An interesting document that is truly
a link with the past is in possession
of Herman Byrd. clerk employed at
the local postoffice, which is none other
than letter written by George Wash
ington to Governor Morris.
The letter Is dated September 19. 1892,
and is In the nature of a letter of in
PRODUCTION. That the letter is genuine
has been proven by comparison with the
records of the first President on file at
Washington, and gives evidence of its
age by the faded writing and yellowness
of the paper on which it is written. The
letter came into possession of Mr. Byrd
through his grandfather, who, In turn,
received it from an old man whom he
had befriended. How 1t came into his
possession no one could learn. The let
ter reads as follows:
Mount Vernon. September 10, 1892.
Dear Sir: This letter will be presented
by Mr. Churchman. and 1t is to be con-
sidered as unofficial, written merely to
introduce him to your personal acquain-
tance agreeably to his wishes and that
he may have an opportunity to explain
to you the object of his voyage, which
is, he says, to prove the principle of
the magnetic atlas on which he has en-
ployed much of his time, and which if
effective must prove a valuable discov-
cry.
ITO this purpose he means to make $50
he informs mel number of observations
on the western coast of Europe. With
very great esteem and regard. I am
Dear Sir. Your most obedient servant,

DONAHOE GUILTY.;
ISF|NED $4,000
Attorney Was Charged With
COnspiring to Defame
Clarence Funk

Chicago, November 12.--Attorney Daniel
Donahoe. charged with conspiring to de-
fame Clarence S. Funk, former general
manager of the International Harvester
company, tonight was found guilty. and
fined 5000. Detective Isaac Stiefel, tried
on the same charge of conspiracy, was
found not guilty.
Donahoe and Steifel We're indicted,
charged with conspiracy to defame, after
a suit charging Mr.. Funk with having
alienated the affections of Mrs. John c.
Henning had been dismissed. Henning,
in whose name the suit against Mr.. Funk
was brought, had been bell boy. He
disappeared after the trial, but was ar
rested in Minneapolis just before the trial
of Donahoe and Stiefel began. He and
Mrs. Henntng were the chief witnesses
for the prosecution.
The names of both former Senator via
liam Lorimer and Edward Hines, mil
lionaire lumber merchant, were mention
) ed In the Donahoe trial by Funk, who
related the substance of testimony given
/ before the United States Senate. Mr..
Funk testified that Edward Hines had
said well, we put Lorimer over, but it
cost 100000"
Testimony given by Funk before an
Illinois legislative investigating commits
sion resulted in reopening of the case
against former Senator Lorimer, and at
that hearing 1t was found that Mr.. Lori
mer had not been legally elected to the
Senate.
Edward Deuter, bell boy, who tes-
titled for the state, and who was listed
as witness in the alienation suit, tes-
titled that he was called to Donahoe S
office and the attorney had asked if he
had read of a suit started by Edward
Hines against Funk.
We're all in the same crowd the bell
boy testified Donahoe said to him.
The jury deliberated nearly six hours
before returning its verdit tonight. At
torneys for Donahoe appealed from the
verdict

YUAN SHI KAI TO
CALL COUNCIL MEET

Picking, November 12.-President Yuan
Shi Kai intends to summon an admins
trative council" which in addition to
transacting state affairs, will draft regu-
lations governing the new Parliament
The council will number n members, con-
sisting of the cabinet officers and others
appointed by the President and the
provincial governors who already have
been appointed by him.
Yuan Shi Kai considers the present
House of Representatives an unweildy
body and desires it's reduction to 800 menu
bers. The original number of representa-
tives was 59B. The powers of the Parlia-
ment also will be materially curtaiied and
the Senate will disappear, giving place
to the administrative council.
This programme was announced today
and it probably will be carried into ef-
feet If the Presidents opponents are not
able to bring about its modification.
In the meantime the remnant of Par
lament is permitted to continue holding
informal meetings, but can do no busi-
ness because of lack of quorum.
