GREAT DAMAGE DONE TO PROPERTY AND SEVERAL LIVES

New York, Dec. 27.-Northern and
eastern New York state and New
England are slowly recovering from
the damage of yesterdays storm. A
succession of rain, snow, lightning,
sleet and thunder, winding up with a
heavy gale, leveled wires and trees,
unroofed houses, drove shipping
ashore, caused widespread damage,
many deaths and accidents. Tele-
graphic communication with some
sections is still interrupted. Trains
have been unable to keep schedules.
New England reports severe damage
to buildings and vessels. Eight deaths
occurred here, attributed to the storm.

81 do not believe that any English
man with technical expert knowledge
doubts that our feet has pursued the
one correct, and for England, fatal
strategy, of continuing as fleet in
being and so made the enemy's su-
premacy at sea only provisional and
conditional To provoke a decisive
battle against an overwhelmingly
superior force would be heroic, but it
would not be war, it would be play
ing the enemy's game. That our
navy would take any opportunity to
measure herself against the foe,
where the chances were at all equal,
she has proved sufficiently and viii
also prove further. It is also certain
that the English win give them no
such opportunity, If they know it. Be
fore the war / heard in England, over
and over again, that the German feet

EngIish-in the mouth of an Eng
lishment the highest praise he could

said enough and now they may prefer
only to fight when they are certain
of having a greater force

ENDURANCE TITLE
GOES TO MAXWELL
TOURING CAR GIVES WONDER
FUL EXHIBITION OF SPEED
AND STAMINA
10000 MILES IN 20 DAYS
The Motor Nonstop Feature Part Of
Thoroughly Authenticated
Feat

Los Angeles, Cal, Dec. 23.-Under
official observation by the American
Automobile Association and as part
of a motor nonstop run still in pro-
gress, a stock Maxwell touring car
has already established the following
road records:
5000 miles in 10 days.
10000 miles in 20 days.
12,405 miles in 25 days.
Official reports will show all three
of these records slightly better than
the above close approximations. If
The car continued on the road until
Jan. 1, as is probable, it will probably
end its run with total of about 2O,-
GOO biles in 40 days.
Vouched for by the A. A. A.
There. can be no questioning the
authenticity of the records. The car
was rigidly examined and passed as
stock, before the run began, Nov. %.
An A. A. A. observer has been with
| II every moment since. The mileage
has been taken by two speedometers.
To a great extent, the sensational
speed feature was surprise, even to
the Lord Motor Co., Southern Califor-
MIA, Maxwell distributors, who con-
Quoted the run. The car which, more
than three years ago, set the motor
nonstop figures at 12,4 ,404.9 miles, av-
eraged around 400 miles daily. This
was the schedule mapped out first for
| the Maxwell, but it was found, during
the first day of the run, that much
better speed was possible without in
| the least increasing the task Of the
motor. As a result schedule of 500
miles daily was established and slight
ly exceeded.
A big crowd Of enthusiastic Califor-
mans saw A. A. A. Representative,
Earl Cooper, send the car away on its
long grind. The conditions called for
constant running of the motor, wheth-
er the car was in progress or stand
ing still. The first 5000 miles were
covered without break in the con-
sistent running. Experienced motor
lists then began to believe success
possible During the period between
5000 and 10000 miles, two severe
storms were encountered, in one of
which the car was forced to ford
streams in the main highways to get
back to Los Angeles from suburban
trip.
Los Angeles Excited
On Friday morning, Dec. II. the car
passed the old total and there was
great rejoicing. Rumors were rife of
a similar attempt by a competing
dealer and this caused the run to be
continued. During its long run, the
car has become a well known feature
OF Los Angeles and its suburbs. Often
its days work includes an extended
| tour to some other Southern Califor-
MA city.
/ Motorists generally credit the non
stop as the severest possible test of a
motor. General knowledge that a
moments stop for repair or adjust
nent will end the run has made the
MaxwelPs performance so interesting
to the public that its daily progress is
a source of conversation and frequent
wagers.
