EXPECT LARGE
OUTPUT BOOM
Industry in Richmond Con-
tinues to Flourish Despite
War and Alleged Business
Depression in Z. IS.

The local automobile industry is in
a very healthy condition at the pres
ent and 1t will only be a short
time when all the factories will be
working with full force for the way
orders are coming in for the 1916 cars
Is surprising even the manufacturers
themselves.
1t would appear from present indi-
cations that more automobiles VIII be
built in Richmond during the next
year than ever before, for there is not
a firm In the city that has not already
sufficient orders to keep the plants
busy for some time.
According to the statements made at
the different factories, the anticipated
increase in business is due to the
many Improvements placed on the diff.
ferent cars and the new models being
introduced, to say nothing of the rep
utations that have been built up by
the Davis, Pilot, Richmond and West
colt cars.
Representatives Of the Haynes, REQ,
Maxwell, Chevrolet, Studebaker and
Ford cars all report good business in
sight and say that the only kick they
have to make is that they cannot get
cars fast enough to satisfy their Gus
toners.
The European war and alleged hard
times have apparently had no effect
on the automobile business. in fact
the former has proven a boom for 1T.

1916 WESTCOTT CAR
C0NQUERS BIG HILL

Tower Hill, near Dayton, O., which
has been the source of many disap-
pointments to motorists in the past,
had its pride crushed a few days ago
by 1916 Westcott, siX-cylinder, Del
co equipped car, which went over on
high speed.
In the car were H. G. Root, general
manager. and Harry Clark, chief en-
gineer Of the Westcott Motor Car
company of Richmond. and Mr.. Harri
son, general sales manager. and his
assistant, Mr.. Hughes of the Dayton
Engineering company. Reaching the
vicinity Of Tower Hill they took the
high gear drive up to the top without
so much as a stutter from the en-.
CINE.
MIR. Harrison says that this car will
do anything on earth that can be ex-
pected of a motor car, and that the
next advancement toward flying
would be simply to buy Wright bi.
plane and 60 sky high.

BOOK ROAD GAMES

The Fairview Reserves play their
last game at Ratliff park Sunday. The
attendance so far this season has not
been sufficient to make baseball at
that park paying proposition. The
teams that have played there this
season have been unable to make ex-
penses. After Sunday the manager
will try to book out-of-town games.
Teams wishing games, write to Ro-
land Mitchell. Box 225, or telephone to
George Brehm, at Richmond.
The game Sunday promises to be one
of the best played at Ratliff park this
season. The Reserves and Union

PILOT FIRM REFUSES
TO PRODUCE TRUCKS

George Seidel, manager of the Pilot
Motor Car company, said in an inter
view today that his company Is be-
ing constantly asked to bid on heavy
trucks, ambulances and other motor
drawn vehicles by foreign powers, and
that it had consistently refused to
take orders at fancy prices because
it would be more than it could do with
it's present plant to supply the de-
mand for the light six Pilot, which Is
being brought out this year.
The reputation made by the Pilot
in former years will be back of the
six, and 1t will be built along the
same high-grade lines as all cars turn
ed out of this factory always have
been.

NEW YORK. May 8.-With some
of its best known citizens among the
passengers on the Lusitania. whose
fate had not been accounted Tor and
with growing realization OF the
awfulness of the catastrophe and the
gravity of its international signif-
canoe, New York today was a sober
city.
Awakening this morning to find
that the hopes of the night before
that the Lusitania's passengers had
been saved were premature and that
the loss of life might reach two
thirds of those aboard, the whole
city seemed stunned A spirit of de-
preston was IN evidence among peo-
pie in all public places.
Throns of Anxious InquirerS.

anxious inouirers to the offices Of the
Cunard line early in the forenoon
Before midday the crowd had swell

ing the afternoon to about twenty
five.
The Cunard line received and post

dict of acquittal was returned after

the night of June 80 last
The jury was agreed on the first
ballot and the verdict was returned
at 5:32 o'clock. one hour and twelve
minutes after the jury had retired.
Mrs Carman, who had been depress-
ed and apparently extremely anxious
all day frightened as Justic Black
mar delivered his charge ana
beamed with happiness when the YER
dict was announced. She shook
hands with all the jurors and left at
ter a few minutes with her husband

In his charge TO the jury Justice
Blackmar said that the states case
centered on the testimony of Celia
Coleman, a negro maid. in the Car
man household. who testified that
Mrs Carman had darted into the
kotchen the night of the murder with
a revolver in her hand and announced
Il killed him" The Coleman woman
also testified that Mrs. Carman had
come to her room early the next
morning and expressed repentance
for having killed that poor woman.
In his charge Justice Blackmar
said:

Celia Coleman was careless of the
truth but that is not conclusive. It
is for you to decide after considering
all the circumstances whether the
primary question IN this case is
