A Japanese engineer has invented
a system of wireless telephony which
is said to be proving success. IT
is now being tried out between
vessels in the sea Of Japan and will
perhaps be adopted generally in the

and telephony the vessels of Japan
would have a decided advantage over

WIRE WHEELS PROVE
A SENSATION OF THE
GOTHAM AUTO SHOW

One Of the novelties that attracts
much attention at this years automo-
bile shows is the wire wheel, which re-
appears after long disuse. In the very
early days wire spoked wheels were
used on motor cars to some extent, but
then they were an adaptation from the
bicycle. AS the cars got heavier the
artillery wheel was adopted. But in re-
cent years improvements have been
made in the manufacture of the wire,
and at least one type of wire wheels has
been developed which has had enough
use to prove its value, more satisfac-
tory than even American hickory, which
has always been superior to French
oak and the steel wheels used on some
European cars.
The standard wire wheels for auto
mobiles abroad are the Rudge- Whit
worth. which the Stevens Duryea Com
pany furnishes as extra equipment this
year. The big passenger touring
car in the Stevens Duryea exhibit al
the automobile show has the genuine
imported Rudge- Whitworth wheels; in
fact, the Stevens Duryea Company Is
the only concern which has q right to
exhibit set OF these wheels on a mo-
tor car at this show

AUTO INDUSTRY
DOWN To BRASS
TACKS'
President of Hudson Company
Tells of Condition Reached
by Makers.

President r D. Chaplin, Of the Hudson
Motor Car Company, Detroit, in a COM
munhcation received by ]. w. Goldsmith,
Jr, the local Hudson dealer, yesterday
stated that the automobile industry has
settled down to a brass tack" basis.
1.-THE brass tack era IN the automobile
industry has commenced the president
wrote.
1.-THE cars that are on a sound financial
basis are those which are making good
and will continue to do so. The Ameri-
ansautomobile is on the basis upon which
the British and European business is
built There the automobile industry is
good, firm. staple.
THE buyers patronage of manufactur-
ers is narrowing down to the aggressive,
sound ones who have for years fore
casted the settling of the automobile bust
ness down to the brass tack basis-the
solid. firm bottom on which It rests today
And when I say sound, firm basis,
refer to the fact that 1913 will see
more cars built and sold by far than any
other previous year One ow-priced car
manufacturer-who is a tremendous force
as an educator Of the public in automo-
bles-will build over $4,000 cars, 1t is
said.
Companies Are Expanding.
The strong companies are prosperous
They are expanding into the field from
which the weaker ones have been forced
10 vacate by the very nature of the busi-
ness settling down TO bedrock. The
industry as a whole is in a remarkably
healthy condition.
ITO those who. like myself, have been
IN the industry from its very inception,
the brass tack situation is gratifying
for it has been looked for during the
past three years. 1t is a capitalization
OF conditions which are found in every
great new industry,
The significance to the prospective
owners of cars and the present owners Is
that the automobile industry reaching
circumstances makes It necessary for the
manufacturer to build exceptional auto
mobiles.
What Guarantee Means.
"They find the rating of the manu-
facturer in Dun or Bradstreets. They
Judge his soHdity, permanency. The value
of any guarantee is as the manufacturer
cares TO make it. II he is a permanent,
sound fixture in his industry. he win go
a thousand miles out of his way to insure
every buyer correct treatment and salts
faction beyond the latter's expectations.
There is no doubt in my mind that
those OF US who have long watched for
this industry TO achieve the unbreakable
foundation upon which it has now settled,
will see more prosperous years than ever
before The reason is that every year the
field expands byond every good maker s
output"

AUTOS ENTERED
IN EAST'S ONE
bic RACE
Winner to Receive Nearly S25,.
000-Money Split Among
First Ten.

From present indications, the only race
of Importance in the East this year will
be the 500-mile Memorial day contest on
the indianapolis Speedway. 1t is expected
that the affair will be more of an inter
national event this year than ever before,
Charles w. Sedwick, Speedway director,
having done some effective missionary
work abroad.
The English car, Sunbeam, which es-
tablished worlds speed records from four
to twelve hours, is said to be pointed
toward the Indianapolis affair. Albert
Guyot, one of the leading French drivers,
will be at the wheel, it is said.
The entries already are pouring in, and
two Stutz cars were the first to put their
names on the list, according to word re-
ceived from Indianapolis. Charley Merz
and Gil Anderson, famous as Stutz
drivers, were named to pilot the ma
chimes Relief driver for either car was
not named
Drove Last Year.
Both Merz and Anderson drove in the
500-mile race last year, Merz finishing
fourth and Zengel sixth. Anderson, how
ever, did not finish, going into the ditch
at 200 miles with two blown tires.
The cars were entered by the Ideal Mo-
tor Car Company, of Indianapolis, manu-
facturers of the Stutz car. On both cars
will be four cylinder motors, made to con
form to the condition which names $50
cubic inches as a maximum piston dis
pla ement
The Stutz car has been wonderfully sue
cessful at the racing game. It's very first
time out it finished the first 500 mile
race. Besides getting fourth and sixth
in the 500-mile race last year, the Stutz
car was very successful in the racing
world, particularly at Elgin and Milwau-
kee, in competition with cars of much
higher power.
$4,000 In Prizes.
This year the $4,000 prize will be d.
vided into ten prizes instead of twelve,
as last year, as follows: First, $40 900;
second, 100000; third, $4,000; fourth, S.
500; fifth, $4,000; sixth, $4,000; seventh,
$1,sOO; eighth, $1,6OO; ninth, S1,5OO; tenth,
81, 400.
Other entries from other factories are
! expected on early mails. A good quota
of American cars is assured, the Ameri-
can makers being of the opinion that the
reduction Of the piston displacement from
a maximum of 500 cubic inches to $50
| will be good thing for racing, as it will
more nearly make the race one of stock

INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 25,-For the
first time in the history Of motoring
an organized tour participated in by
the automobile manufacturers will cross
the snow clad Rockies and the steep
Sierra Nevada ranges. Up to this
time Denver has marked the Western
terminus of any organized tour 1t has
remained for the progressive automo-
bile manufacturers of Indiana to even
attempt such feat.
The Indiana Automobile Manufac-
turers association will conduct its an
nual tour over the route to be selected
by the national executive committee for
the coast to coast stone highway pro-
posed by Carl C. Fisher and James A.
Allison, Of indianapolis, distance of
approximately $500 miles. This rock
road will be built with money obtained
from the automobile and accessory
manufacturers of the United Staes.
Realizing the importance of awaking
interest In this great project the Hoosier
manufacturers have decided that this
tour shall take the place of their third
annual four states event and that it
shall be a path finding interest gene
rating tour for better roads. 1t viii also
be the plan of the manufacturers en-
gaging in this tour to furnish data
on the route to any interested motor
lists that desire to tour to the expo
sltion in 1915 which San Francisco will

Sumter, Aug. S.-During the ter
rife electric storm which visited this
city Thursday evening the Hotel Sum-
ter was struck, and although con-
siderable smoke, which poured from
the chimney where the lightning
bolt took effect, led many to at first
believe that the large frame build
ing containing about 100 rooms was
en- fire, the damage later resolved
into nothing more than a severe
fright to several occupants of the
building and the littering up with
SCOT of four or five rooms. A re-
markable incident, however, occurred
across the street from the hotel in a
barber shop, when razor was knock
ed out of the hand of barber en-
gagged in shaving a customer, much

Tillman Clashes with Conductor.

WASHINGTON, Aug. S.-Senator Till
man is the latest national legislator
to clash with a street car conductor
and to-day he was engaged in "cool-
ing off," as he expressed it, before
determing whether he would tlle
charges against the man. WITHIN
the past few weeks Representative
Sisson, of Mississippi, and Represen-
tative Buchanan, of Illinois, have
clashed with conductors on Pennsyl-
vania avenue street cars.
eff this keeps up said senator
today, laughingly, well have to or
ganize the Solons' Street Car Society
for Conductor Chasing. 1t seems
about to become the most popular
summer sport with congress-
Senator Tillman, with Mrs, Till
man, boarded a car at the capitol to
ride to their home He profered his
tickets while standing on the step,
ind, according to his account, the
conductor ordered him on to the plat
form, "in an abrupt and discourteous
manner" The clash followed, and
the senator took the mans name and
number. The conductor today denied
that he had been or intended to be
discourteous or abrupt.
