Prints "a Dispatch from
Bermuda.

NEW YORK, February 9-The
German cruiser Room, supposed
commerce raider, has been captured
by the British cruiser Drake after
a three hours fight two hundred
miles east of Bermuda, according to
a report received from Bermuda oS
the New York Globe this afternoon.
Ii was also reported that two mer-
chant men. one of them armed, were
captured with the Room.
The Globe said it was unable to
make public the source of its infor-
nation. but quoted the following dis
patch from Bermuda:
Drake here today towing the
Room. Took her geo knots east OF
northeast of Bermuda after three
hours running fight Lost Danforth
and eighteen men. Her losses were
about one-third Struck as came
abeam. Two merchantmen with her,
one armed. Took both. Brought
here. Seagrave on sighting the Room

squadron destroyed Germans Room

"Seagrave, according to the
IGlobe, was probably the Captain
Seagrave who was with Admiral
Craddock, but later given command
Of another vessel.
'Danforth," the Globe says, was
probably torpedo boat lieutenant.
The naval registry shows the Drake
to be 14,200-ton cruiser, built
about fifteen years ago. She carried
as her heaviest armament two %
inch guns, the caliber mentioned in
the dispatch the Globe says it re-
ceiyed.
The story is not confirmed by the
british consulate here. Washington

PEACE IS ACCEPTED WITH
A STRING TIED To II

NEW YORK. Feb. g. After peck
ing around the door from force of
habit TO see whether any Fed league
satellites were camping upon their
trail the National league magnates
suddenly remembered the Treaty of
Cincinnati and sat down to their ad-
journed December meeting here to-
day, in peace and at IL.
It cannot be said, however, that
peace is In the form of dove de-
scended upon them" TWAS no such
benevolent bird as that 1t may
have been blue jay possibly a rob

The National magnates are pretty
well satisfied today, though. They
feel that the big battle is over and
that Old General Q. b. has with
stood the onslaught of the outlaws
nobly and VIGOROUSLY; and that lit
tie now remains TO be done but the
shouting and the putting into prac-
tice OF that ancient Jacf5onian ut

consist Of a beyy of Fed players to

magnates see fit ana It's a pretty
safe bet that the magnates Won't
see fit to trade the returned wan

II. H. F.: Can you tell me some
thing about the compression in cyl
lpders and how ! may test it?
1t is of great Importance that the
compression in all cylinders should
be equal and up to the standard.
You may know when the compress
sion is faulty by loss Of power or
missing of the engine. IL is wise 10
test the compression occasionally by
turning the engine while the switch
Is off until you feel resistance in each
Of the four cylinders. successfully.
II you find that the compression Is
less in one cylinder than in others.
or if you find that all are weak. the
valves may not be seating properly.
The trouble may be because of too
little clearance between the valve
stems and the valve tappets, or be-
cause there Is small deposit of car
bon on the seat Of the valve. Either
of these faults should be remedied
at once. IL Is much better 10 con-
stantly watch that the valve seats
do not become coated with carbon.

Cost of Motoring Going Dozen
Higher Tire Mileage
the Cause.
The p;s;1o Price of Fuel Decried But Statistics Sho"
Improved Tire Service More man 0"""'e'
balances Increased Expense OF Gar

increased costs due to higher gaso-
lene
Tire prices have risen lately, OF
course, as any short comparison OF
price lists will show. What the
price lists do not show, however, Is
that the service given by the tires
has increased far beyond the IN
crease in price, so that the actual
mile cost is less. 1t is so much less
as to more than make up for the
greater cost per mile for fuel.
Also, tires cost less now than they
cid two years ago, and run further.
Cheapest Year Was 1915.
Roughly classifying the years re-
veals that 1915 was the year when
it cost least to run a car, due to the
low cost of fuel, comparatively, and
the high mileage given by tires.
The next cheapest year was 1914,
while 1916, the year of the great
rise in gasolene, is at present inter-
mediate between 1914 and 1913.
Had gasolene remained stationary
this year, 1916 would show as the
cheapest year yet.
The figures are based on the per-
Torrance Of about 100 cars covering
10000 miles yearly in about twenty
important centres of the country IN
the service of the United States
Tire Company, and are therefore
detailed enough to avoid special con-
ditions of any kind Three types
of cars were used, the light, the
medium and heavy weight. The
light car used 80 by 3 inch tires IN
the front and 80 by 3la inch in the
rear, Doth plain tread. The medium
weight car is a six, and uses "a by
4 inch tires front and rear, with
non-skid tread in the rear. The
heavy cars are either tours or
Fights, and use SO by Az inch tires,
front and rear, with non-skid tread
ct the rear. The light car averaged
twenty miles to the gallon, the me-
dunn car seventeen and one-halt
miles and the heavy twelve miles.
The years covered were the six
from 1911 to 1916 inclusive. The
cars in question ell were actively
engaged in the business of the COM
pany and were under constant OBJ
servation. Records of the total
mileage, tire mileage, tube and cas-
ing life and fuel consumption were
kept with accuracy and the figures
are unusually significant, because
they were compiled for the informa-
ton of the company's officials.
Let the Figures Tell the Story.
The gasolene cost curves for the
three cars are almost identical.
We cite the one for the medium car.
