One cylinder was ;nlled with acid, the other with a i highly inflammable chemical The | mixing of the two fluids would have au:ed an explosion, Mr. Hill said. “It has also’ been found,” Mr. | said, “that attempts to destroy or { make useless automobiles shipped to | the nilies are frequent. ~We are com- pelled to keep at Havre a large force of mchanics to examine each machine, evem before it is testegl.
