shoulder and who wore Boyds hat,
found themselves with seven men be-
hind an adobe wall near a dry hole
which offered protection from the bull
lets, but not from the sun.
Three hundred yards to the south
were the Carranzistas, some mount
ed, some afoot, advancing, firing and
yelling. They had become embold-
ened by the Americans retirement.
Walked as If Dared.
'When / got behind that WALL" re-
sumed Morey in a matter-of-fact tone,
~ told the men l proposed to stay
there. Those who wished to go, told
to CO."
Four men, including one wounded
man, elected to make the desperate
attempt to escape, and Morey told
how he saw them ascend the hill
which stretched away to the north.
Il never saw men act so strange
ly," he said. "They didn't run or
seem to exert themselves; they SIM
ply moved away as if dazed up the
hill, and by so doing they probably
saved US. We who remained behind
the wall saw the Carranzista horse
men riding to outflank them. The
Carranzistas apparently thought they
had us behind the wall safely, and
bent all their efforts on getting the
four who were trying to escape. We
were unmolested."
With the enemy beating the coun-
try on all SIDES Morey and three black
troopers lay in the hole behind the
wall all that long, waterless day, with
the sun beating squarely down on
them.
Night came, and with it came a
welcome drop in temperature, and
the stars. The wounded officer and
men started trailing west on the first
leg of the 70-mile journey to Perish
ing's line.
Too Weak to Walk.
Morey was so weak that he could
only walk a hundred yards or so at a
stretch, and as the night wore on and
he became weaker and weaker he con-
Guided that it was humanity impossible
for him to 60 farther.
So he first requested-and when
they refused-he ordered the three
negro troopers to leave him.
II reasoned" he said today, that
they could go on and l couldn't, so
1 made them CO."
The three went on. Morey, his
wounds bandaged as best they could
be, lay down on the desert and slept.
The stars were still out, but dawn was
breaking when he awoke, strengthened
by the rest. He forced himself to his
feet and staggered on in the direction
in which he thought lay Santo Domin-
go ranch, eight miles from Carrizal
and the point where the command

all of them In power. Out of the few of these
78 four-cylinder cars which exceed the horse
power rating of the Studebaker FOUR, the
average price is $2022. Again nearly three
times the price of the Studebaker car. Why
the additional $11477
There you have the actual proof of the
superiority of Studebaker Power cars over
the average of all other cars.
We now come to the PROOF that not
only in POWER, but in EVERY important
feature of construction, regardless of cost,
Studebaker uses design recognized by the
majority as the BEST.
Below we show point by point, where the
analysis, made by the motor car journals,
proves that every important feature of
Studebaker construction has been adopted
by the majority of motor car builders. You
can find a description of the various types of
construction if you will refer to the journals
from which this analysis was made, and if
you will write us we will be very glad to give
you publication dates of the journals which
contain this information.
The splendid policy of the automobile in
dustry in taking the public into its confidence
and educating it to an understanding of what
is most efficient in motor car construction,
through the pages of trade journals, has been
of great assistance in helping the motor car
buyer to select the right car. Public demand
has dictated the prevailing types in motor
cars just as 1t has prevailing types in other
things; but in motor cars, more than In any
thing else, the demand is based on logical
reasoning and good judgment, rather than
on mere whin or impression.
The styles in construction which have
proven best in the opinion of the public and
also in the opinion of the automobile engi-
neering profession, stand as the guide for
Studebaker, and it has always been Stude-
baker policy to continually improve its prod
uct and to merit the confidence and endorse
ment of the public.

Seating Capacity

Of the 100 Models of all classes of Fours,
Skies and Fights selling for less than
$1,000, the Studebaker FOUR is the only
car which seats seven people. Not car in
the world combines the roominess and COM
fort of this Studebaker for less than $1,000.
In fact. there are only three models of all
cars selling for less than $l100 which have
a seven-passenger capacity.
There is still another angle to this price
and seating capacity argument Let us look
further. Practically every seven-passenger
model is much higher priced than the Stude-
baker. The average price of all seven-pas-
senger, four cylinder models is $2738, three
times the price of the Studebsker FOUR.
The average price of all seven-passenger
Skies, Fights and Twelves is $4,000, three
and seven-tenths times the price Of q Etudc-
baker SIX.

Power

The public wants power in an .robile.
That is the basis on which most cars are
cold. Almost from the beginning Stude-
baker has demonstrated to believers and
skeptics alike the superiority of the Stude-
baker Series II in this respect, until it is now
an accepted fact To clinch the argument,
here are the figures.
The average price of all of the los Six,
Eight and Twelve cylinder cars manufac-
tured is $1o17, yet the Studebaker SIX at
$1O85 is 1oo% ahead of the average of these
los cars in power. Of the few of these los
cars which equal or exceed the rating of the
Studebaker SIX in power, the average price
is $4,000, almost three times as much as the
Studebaker SIX Why the additional $1s002
The average price of all of the 7s four-cyl-
inder cars is $1278, yet the Studebaker
FOUR at $s75 is 7.6a ahead of the average of
Evening journal., 1916-09-16
Price

Price is only one factor in making up the
composite whole of GREATEST VALUE"
The average price, the standard with which
to compare all automobile prices, is made up
from 43o models of 1917 cars, and shows that
the standard car would sell for $1,000. This
is Just $515-47 3o-higher than the cost of
Series II Studebaker SIX. 1t is $315
almost 25%-above the average cost of the
eight Studebaker models. Every purchaser
of the Studebaker car knows the benefit of
from $500 to $500 saving.
But we cannot stop there. Price is just
the beginning of GREATEST VALUE"
for you will see in the following analysis that
a Studebaker owner does not get from $500
to $500 less value. By cold, hard figures he
gets greater value, point by point, than he
would, not only in the average of all cars, but
also in the average of all cars of the same and
higher price classes.
Every important feature of Studebaker
construction is used either by the largest
number of makers-an endorsement in itself
or by those makers whose cars sell for a
much higher price than Studebaker-a still
higher endorsement.

Ignition

The controversy over the relative merit
Of the generatcr-battery ignition as against
magnetic ignition has been bitterly fought,
but since it was adopted by Studebaker, four
years ago, generator-battery ignition has
been steadily gaining ground in its struggle
for popularity. The simplicity, the reliabiI-
ity, the durability and the freedom from all
trouble of the generator-battery ignition
system have proven that Studebaker was
right in adopting this type of ignition. The
wisdom of the change is becoming more OBJ
vious every day. Of the two types of igni-
ton the percentages are as follows:

Timing Gears

Smooth, quiet positive running timing
gears are essential to the satisfaction of all
car owners. Experience has shown that
helical gears are the type best suited to ac-
complish satisfactory results. So-called
silent chains and spur gears are used in some
instances, but Studebaker as usual lines up
with what Is generally conceded to be the
best type.

Tirnken Bearings

Timken bearings are the most efficient bug
they are also the most expensive. Most
manufacturers hesitate to equip their prod
uct completely with Timken bearings be-
cause of the cost, but Studebaker does not
let this consideration stand in the way for
moment. Studebaker is one of only four
teen manufacturers to offer full Timlen
equipment and the average price of the other
manufacturers cars is $176000.
Evening journal., 1916-09-16
Rear Axle

Studebaker has from the beginning fed tils
field in the simplicity, safety, lightness, and
efficiency of rear axle design, and in pursu-
ance of this policy has adhered strictly to the
full-hoating rear axle One by one other
manufacturers have come into line as public
demand turns more and more strongly in
this direction. The preference is indicated

Fours and Skies

The popular demand has centered on cars
of four and six cylinders, hence Studebaker
confines itself to these two types. The wis
dom of this policy is shown when the classih-
cation of all cars shows that Fours and Skies
together constitute $685. of the 43o models.
The division is as follows:

Springs

Popular favor has been sought after by
the advocates of cantilever springs. Stude-
baker always held to the superiority of the
three-quarter elliptic spring for rear suspen-
sion, and now, after three years vigorous
campaigning, the advantages of the latter
type, in spite of its higher cost, make it the
ruling favorite. A singular point in connec-
ton with the use of the three-quarter elliptic
springs by Studebaker is the fact that this
type is used almost exclusively on all higher
priced cars.

Cylinders En- Bloc

Studebaker was the first manufacturer to
cast successfully six cylinder motors in one
block. Advanced ideas in engineering and
factory practice put Studebaker in the lead.

Starting System

Studebaker was one of the first to use an
electric starting and lighting system. Stude-
baker-Wagner equipment was used from the
very first, the only change being made after
the first year when the two-unit system now
in use was adopted instead of the less eff
cient single-unit system of the first year.

in the Studebaker at much less money.

L-Head Motor

Studebaker engineers are sound in their
reasons for building motors of the L-Head
type. Of all manufacturers 71.1% use that
type exclusively, because that type is what
the public wants If the demand were for
valve-in-the-head, T-head, or sleeve valve
motors, the percentage of these types would
be greater. The accompanying table shows
the trend of the public demand and it proves
conclusively that Studebaker is building
what the public wants

Gasoline Feed System

In keeping with the demand for better
streamline design, horizontal body lines,
greater gasoline capacity, and to insure a
positive and even flow of gasoline to the
carburetor, 55% of automobile manufacturers
have adopted vacuum gasoline feed. The

Another policeman was indicted yes

member Of Special Squad No. l." OF
Brooklyn, detailed to clean up the Ten

He is charged with extortion and
bribery. He is the sixth man placed
under formal charges through the in
vestigation Of District Attorney Swami.
At least two more indictments against
Horn are being sought, and three other
detectives whose names have not fig
ured in the investigation will probably
be indicted before the end of the week,
according to Assistant District Attor-
rey Smith. who is in charge OF the
grand jury investigation.
Horn, who was formerly attached to
the Third Inspection District, in COM
peny with other members of the Brook
Ign squad was accustomed to visit the
Manhattan district at night, Mr.. Smith
says. After parading through the
streets in which they were known they
would scatter, II is alleged, and make
individual assaults on the doorbells in
streets between West Twenty-frst and
West Twenty fourth. lying between
Seventh and Eighth avenues. In this
way they made their bi-weekly collec-
tions, according to the charges.
Women Accuse Horn.
Horn is specifically charged with hav-
ing accepted bride of SIS from Flor
ence Ross, of East Seventeenth Street,
near Third Avenue, in August, 1915.
The woman's testimony is corroborated
by Sadie Rothenberg. also of East Sew
enteenth Street, and Benjamin Blum.
The former says she introduced Horn
to the Ross woman, and Blum says he
handed the money to Horn.
