REDMOND HAS AN
OPTIMISTIC VIEW
Chandler Distributor Saws
Automobile Business Is
Better Than Ever

Business is better than usual"
says Andrew Redmond. distributor
for the Chandler Six In this territory.
In fact. records show the automobile
business is forty-two per cent
ahead of sales in Pennsylvania
These figures and increased business
at my own establishment seems to in
divate that the automobile business
mas not suffered any through the un-
usual war conditions that prevail
we have been able to take care of
all deliveries with immediate de-
llVeries assured in most of the lead
ing models. and we anticipate a big
business on sedans and coupes for
Speaking of the Chandler success
and its remarkable progress. MIR,
Redmond said. within four years the
Chandler has built up a reputation
that Is to be envied by the makers
OF the hnest motorcars in the
country. Back in 1914 about two
thousand buyers had the courage to
FOLLOW their convictions in the Sc
ieetlon OF Chandler Skies. and the
and buyers chose the Chandler for
their car. It's wonderful motor, it's
power, Its flexibility, its life and get
away and its endurance seemed mar
velous to many. So last year thir-
teen thousand were sold, and this
year the sales show a fifty-fiye per
cent. increase as compared with the
nrst six months of last year, / have
eNery reason to feel proud of the
owners, and | believe the four years
OF development has made it as near
perfection in construction and per
Iormance as is possible

Gives Political Greed
of German Chancellor
BY Atsociated Prrtt

Copenhagen, Aug. 1S.-Interesting
light on the political creed of DIR.
George Michaelis, the German chan
cellor, is given in an article which
he wrote in December, 1914, for an
obscure religious weekly which has
now been resurrected. 1t condemns
parliamentarism on the one hand
and on the other the selfish policy
of the conservative party.
What Democrat, in view of the
miserable fiasco of parliamentarism
in England and of the republican
constitution in France, can demand
parliamentary rule IN Germany" DR..
Michaelis asked. Who will dare to
touch the emperor's military author
ity?" He challenged those who
wish to place the moose of minis
terial responsibility to the law about
the neck of the chancellor"

Steamer Succeeds In
Keeping U-boat Astern
in Four-Hour Race

An Atlantic Port. Aug. 1917
ncers OF a British steamship which
arrived here to-day told of a moon
hght race with a German submarine
ABOUT forty miles off a French port
on August 4. The submersible was
sighted at 2.30 a. m, the officers said,
and for the four hours the two yes
sells were in n race the steamship
managed to keep the U-boat astern.
making it impossible for the Ger
mans successfully to launch a tor
pedo.
The submarine gave up the chase
shortly after daybreaK. The ships
captain said the bright moonlight
made it possible for him at times to
clearly distinguish the enemy. He de-
scribed the submarine as of excep-
tionally large type with two deck
guns. No shots were fired by either
vessel and while the gun of the
British ship was trained on the
U-boat the captain said, he made
no attempt to open the fight, pre-
ferring to seek safety in speed.

Peerless Co. Warns to
Get Orders in Promptly

Judging from instructions to deal
ers which have Just been issued by
the Peerless Motor Car Co., of Cleve-
land, the builders of the widely-known
Peerless Eight are among those COM
panies which are not experiencing any
let-up in business as result of the war.
The following notice has been sent
to all Peerless Eight dealers:
Specifications that call for delivery
of Model sc cars during August should
be placed with the factory at once. In
spite of full swing manufacturing in
the new factory buildings, the demand
for the Peerless Eight is still greater
than the output. Distributors are
warned to file specifications promptly
and to urge prospects to conclude
their orders as far in advance of de-
sired delivery dates as possible"
The Peerless officials credit the un-
usually good showing made by the
sales department to the splendid per-
formance of the two power range
Peerless Eight motor.

DR.. WAITE PAYS PENALTY
Self Confessed Murderer Was Exc
cuted at Sing Sing Last Night.

Ossington. n. Y. May 24.-Dr.
Arthur Warren Waite was executed
at Sing Sing prison at 11;Io o'clock
tonight for the murder of his father
in-law. John F. Peck. OF Grand
Rapids, Mich.
A jury in the supreme court Of
New York found Waite guilty on
May ~, 1916, after he had told how
he had anaesthetized Mr.. Peck and
then smothered him with pillow.
This was after admitted attempts to
kill his victim with poison. suffoca-
ton and other methods.
Waite also told the jury that he had
killed Mrs. Peck by inoculating her
with disease germs and then giving
her poison. His life was self-con-
fessed record of theft from the time
he was Is years old.
Two hours before his death Waite
spent in prayer with his spiritual ad-
wiser. Just before eleven o'clock the
clergyman asked the condemned man
if there was anyone to whom he
wished to send message of fare
vel.
"No thank you. DOCTOR" Waite re-
piled with a smile, there really is
no one I know to whom l care to
send a farewell message"
"Not even to your mother? queri-
ed Mr.. Peterson.
"No, sir, to no one" was the an
swer.
The chaplin declared that Waite,
who confessed that he poisoned his
wealthy father-in-law in the expecta-
ton that his wife would receive q
large share of the Mr.. Peck's estate,
seemed to look upon his doom as q
wonderful adventure.
