Another long distance record was
shattered last week when the time Tor
a motor car run between Chicago and
New York was cut down. The total
distance of Loaf miles was covered in
thirty-one hours fat. The former rec
ord was 35 hours and 43 minutes.
The new record was established by
B. F. Durham of Detroit. who piloted
a Chalmers 3.400 r. p. NJ. Six-"3o"
roadster The former record was held
by E. c. Patterson of Chicago, who
negotiated the distance June 10 last
year in a Packard Six-"3S' touring car.
Durham drove a stock roadster, car

run from Chicago to New York was
practically continuous. no stops be-
ing made except for gasoline. oil and

distance of 375 miles, Durham made
fast time, covering this stretch in II
hours and minutes.
The run from Cleveland to New York
city was made in a steady downpour OF
rain, slowing up the car and making
constant use of chains necessary. Many
narrow escapes were encountered by
the drivers on the run, especially when
crossing the Allegheny mountains at
night Frequent detours for torn-up
roads. steep grades and narrow trails
made the night travelling extremely
hazardous.
The car was checked out of Chicago
by Darwin S. Hatch and upon its ar
rival in New York city by F. E. Spooner.
Every grade on the trip was made on
high gear. The average speed per
hour was 1877 miles.
