Hall and her son, Melvin Hall, steereq their car into its Broadway garage. Their trip is said to be the first of its kind accomplished by ama- teur drivers. They wore 117 tires and burned up 5,000 galions of gasoline but suffered no serious mishaps. The Halls with their four cylinder phaeton type car, salled from New York, June 10, 1911. Originally they had no thought of encircling the world. They motored through England and Wales and then through nearly every country in Hurope.

MANAGERS’ FINE RECORDS. Chanee and MoGraw Have Won Sev- eral Pennants During Careers. ¥ar more eloquent than any mere cluster of words, the statistics below show just what New York's two ‘lead- ers, John J. McGraw and Frank L. Chance, have accomplished through their careers as leaders. MoGraw reached New York late in the cam- paign of 1802, so his record is started from 1903. Chance took charge of the great Cub machine in 1906. In the seven years of his leadership he has carried his people through 1070 games, Wwith a record of 714 victories against 336 defeats, yielding a grand average of .667 . He has won two games out of every three starts. In the 10 years of his reign McGraw (has led the Giants through 1518 con- tests. with a record of 959 victories against 5569 defeats, yielding a grand average of .632. These two records show what Manhattan’s two leaders have accomplished, and if past per- formances are to be figured in any way for future dope, the Glants and Yankees together have an open road ahead. Chance'’s, greatest run was in 1906, when he tore off 116 victories. McGraw had his best year from the victory viewpoint, in 1904, when he won 106 games. Chance's lightest vield was 92 victories; McGraw's 82 victories, in 1907. Chance's greatest record of defeats was in 1911, when 62 were recorded; McGraw's greatest defeat record was in 1907, when 71 were chalked against him. It has been a wonderful showing for both men, who, between them, %ave man- aged in 2588 contests, won 1173, lost 915, with a combined average of .650. Statistics follow: M.

New York, Jan. 23.—Weakness /of steel was the conspicuous feature of today’s stock market. Preseure was directed steadily against this stock and its loss of more than two points Was perhaps the principal factor in | the unsettlement of the whole list. | The strength exhibited on the two days vanished and material inroads Were made on the recently established gains. The selling converged on Steel, Reading and the Harriman stocks, and | standard investment s and 'spe- | cialties s0ld down with the speculative A spirited rally late today lifted prices comsiderably above the low point. The sbarp upturn just before the close yesterday, followingz announc: ment of Turkey’s acceptance of tr peace proposals, aroused hopes of bull traders that the upward movement would receive further impetus today but the course of the market indicated that the announcement had been dis- counted, Wall street has clung per- sistently to the view that hostllities would not be renewed and in the ab- sence of a sharp response in the Lon- don market, where Americans rose only slightly before the opening here, trad- ers were not inclined to take the in- ithatfve in bidding up prices on this score, i Resignation of the Turkish cabinet | in consequence of its action, made | known late late in the session, was | a further unseitling influence. [ Pregsure against Steel was assoect- | ated with the revelations made in the | sovernment’s dissolution suit, partic nlarly the admission of a former pres- | ident conecerming an international rail Pool. Harriman shares were de- Dressed by intimations of serious ob- .| stacles in the way of earrying out | the dissolution decree, The weakness | of the gemeral market seemed to rad- | iate from these issues, the technical Pposition - of the market having been weakened by extensive shert eever- ing on the previous two days. Offerings of 315,000,000 convertibie four and a half per cent, St. Paul bonds caused a break in both the stock and bonds. The stock broke 1 3-4 and the outstanding four and a halfs twe Doints. Bonds were irregular with a lewer trend. Distiliers fives made up the Tecent loss. Total eales, par value, $2,785,000, United States bends were unchanged on cal. WIRTER IS HERE! Have You An (vergoat?

An interesting . lemgx’-? of the ped with electric self startersy This type has gained wonderfully i’ popu- larity during the past year. These- electric units were on many caars, Con- nected with the time gears and on others engaging with the fly wheel. In general they were the source’of cur- rent for the electric lights. One nove] electric self starter is that Electric lights' prevailed. On one chassis fitted with a coupe body the small lights * usually placed at the sides of the dash were disposed above the headlights proper, a good scheme for city driving, where the in- tense illumination is unnecessary. On another car light is placed low down at center, another in deviation from the beaten path. A few modifications of elec- tric headlight designs were observed, these varying as the individual de- signer expressed his ideas. Most of the lighting batteries are charged by the electric self starters. On some cars_the air type of start- er was to be seen. Certain features commend _this simple system, by means of ‘which air is admittea to the cylinders in “time” by a distrib- uter. One make shown has been featured with the air starter for sev- eral years. Spring changes were noticeable on many cars. Present practice favers the three-quarter_eliptic type. Springs in general have been lenzthened, and this, with increased wheel base, has brought about easier riding, Steel bodies are in favor, though aluminum is featured in the higher priced bodies, Doors are wider, mold- ings flush, door hinges and handles concealed, Tires are as & rule now carried at the rear, and advantage tak- en of running boards to provide lock- ers, as a rule center eentrel is featured, Contrel levers are mow inside the bedy, Mere atientien has been given upholstering, whieh is new much im- proved. are are In the main, few engine changes Such as have been made in minor details. Ignition cables are ‘more neatly arranged. Air pumps for tire inflation are seen- on Some cars, and will be welcomed as affording re- lief from tedious hand pumping. The “Six” has been with us for many years. It is more popular than ever, and in some cases substituted for the usual fours. Remarkably neat castings are seen. formed in blocks of three, others cast in one block. Valve springs are now well covered, making for more quiet operation. Poor design is shown exhibited Dby assemblers. in scme cafs One may | well question the cause at this stage.| There is little excuse for voor design nowadays. About cighteen different makes of motoreycles were exhibited, showing advances in desizn and constructjon. Side cars were prominent. A most interesting display of model road-making machinery and stone ng equipment was that of the department of agriculture. The dif- between good and bad roads ed the cause of good roads.

In ordef to appreciate fully the pres- ent magnitude of the tire industry it is only necessary to contemplate the pneéumatic tire requirements of the country Quring the present year. Conservatively estimated, there will be in operation in the United States this year in the neighberhood of 759,000 | antomobiles. There probably will be more than this number, but three- quarters of a million cars Is a sound basis for calcufation. uring _that each car will require six tires for a vear's service, it will be seen that at least 9,500,000 fires must be turned out by manufacturers to meet the demand. Put these down at the average cost to consumer at $35 each and you get the year's tire business, a sum close to $158,000,000. Tven the most optim | pansionist could scarcel fol‘P-’ seen a decade ago th tremendous strides that have been made in the tire industry in the last four or five years. And yet, with the motor car bowling along on“he crest of “'n.\'e_nt i universal®popularity, it is not surpri ing that the manufacture of tires | should be in every sense a proposition of millions. Millions of tires are required each year to shoe the ever increasing output of cars; millions of dollars are invest- ed in tire factories, and additional mi lions are paid annually to workmen | who build tires. And the reason for | this vast aggresgate of reso es is that miilions of persons throughout the length and breadth of the world are | dependent upon tire service for a large stic trade ex- proportion of the conveniences and pleasures of motor car operation. The taxicab service startsd in the city of Tokio proving immansely popular, and promoters of the company state that each is earning a dafl av- erage of 31.50 ven ($15.75). Fifty cabs, with an average earning capacity of 13.50 yen ($6. per cab per dav, will enable the company to declares a'dl dend of 20 per cent., so it is now real- | izing a profit of two and a haif times ‘ the estimated gain. {» Many of the smaiier cartage com- | panies which have bought moter trucks | have used great Ingenuity in.contriving | ! to use their machines the largest pos- | { sible portion” of the time and so get the Speedometers, clocks, ofl _gauges, | 2 SR Switches and the like flush with the | D e e dash, and in general benehth the cowl. | 3n3"gay, and on Sunday to fit them s and use | with special passenger bod i | them as sight-seeing cars omobile show The resemt Atianta a ses, but each not only paid all expe exhibiter will receive half the money | | spent for the space and there will still | be $2,5600 for a wor ng fund. - t to the life of a! metor truck it has not as yet been do- i termin A ge depariment stere fn London is operating 23 motor ve- hicles, wh o traveled a tetal 1,110,000 m <o of 50, mile for One of these vehicles has to 12,000 | miles per year for and its | owners state f 5 just as good service today as 1t did at the be- | ginning. 191 ut 1913 soason will probab The 00,000 cars built—and they | see ru | To Louis Disbrow of New York city { has been awarded the dirt track cha | pionship of the 1912 racing season. | During the yvea about one ht entage | of vietories in open sily led | that of any other driver.
