MOTOR EXPERT ON
|. AUTO TRIP FROM
CHICAGO To MIAMI

F. S. Duesenbery arrived here yes
terday from Chicago, and is en- route
to Miami, Fla. The car he was driv-
ing has already covered more than
$4,000 miles, he stated, and he ex-
poets to make the trip to the South
Florida resort and return to Chicago
in the same machine. p.
Mr.. Duesenbery, a motor expert,
and engaged in the manufacture of
motors, has had one installed in an
airplane, now at the Pensacola aero
nautical station, and he is much in
terested to know how the engine is
performing. He will make a trip to
the station some time today for the
purpose of personally viewing the
motor at work. He said that his
company is now engaged in expert
menting with an engine which he is
in hopes of driving racing car $50
miles an hour, and his company. he
says, has already about perfected an
engine to drive motor at least IS
miles an hour on the water.
When the Chicago man, who is on
his way to Miami to look after the
motor boat races, saw Pensacola hay
he concluded at once that this place
offers much better advantages fur
notorboat racing than the course off
Miami, and he said that on his return
visit, he will look more thoroughly
into this question, and may conelude
to endeavor and interest racing boat
owners in the project of holding q
carnival at Pensacola. He intimated
that the motor carnival held off Mia
mi every year, could possibly be held
under more favored circumstances in
Pensacola bay.
While in the city, Mr.. Duesenbery
made his headquarters at the Buick
headquarters, on North Palafox
street.

Will Thornton, rolored, fireman
on one of the switch engines working
near the railroad shops, was killed
last night just before IL o'clock when
he stepped in front of moving

switch, he made step or two and
was almost instantly killed.

Why | Am With The PhiIIies
JOHN EvERs.

Il understood that I was not going
out after any mans lob didn't
want any hard feelings on Niehoff's
part. am an old player, on the
brink OF the end. and pretty soon
somebody will be getting my job. Ger
tainly I am too old to 60 out compet-
ing with much Younger men and try-
ing 20 get the r places away from
them. Niehoff is fine fellow and we
are perfectly friendly. which Is only
proper.
] suppose the Boston owners think
| have been getting a good thing on
them for some years. True. I haven't
been able to play as I expected when
] signed my long time contract. But
I guess everyone will admit that II
hasn't been lay fault would much
rather be out there every game of the
season than 10 be crippled up and
helpless as I have been much OF the
time the past year
II is true that had a good CON
tract with Boston. But II Is also true
that they wanted me al the price. or
they wouldn't have paid me. Con
tracts are made usually for the very
purpose Of guard ng again changed
conditions which may make Il desir-
able for one party or the other to
dissolve the agreement In the pres
ent case Il was my own sickness and
inability to play the ball expected
70 play which made my contract un-
profitable 10 Boston. But am not
losing any sleep on that account.
They didn't do me any favor by offer
'ng me that contract On the other
hand I turned down a more valuable
contract which / had offered me by
the Federal League. II I had been a
money gruhber | would have Jumped
at the chance they gave me. But
was satisfid with less so that I could
continue with the National League,
the league where began and where I
hope to end my active playing days T..
/ accepted the lesser OF the two offers.
/ so no one can accuse me Of hogginR
everything in sight. And having made
the contract which was strictly legal
and binding In every way, no one can
blame me for enforcing my side OF the
agreement
In the meantime I am with the Phil
lies and ] shall do all can for the
club What happens 10 my own aver
age hothers me very little so long as
I am able to contribute my bit toward
making the club a winner. As look
back can see that was never yet
connected with a big league team
which finished IN tho second division
The Phillies have a good club and a
good chance It's my opinion they
will be strictly In the race TIL the
last guns fred.
