UNITED STATES TAKES
FIRST STEPS TO CLAIM

Counsel for Estates of Two Vic-1

WAPHtN'OTOX. Oct. r.
Tho Initial tp for tjtm-nt of the i
ciniiwi fw th lo of American Hvw
throunh tlie toru-doinK of the lltur
Amble by a aarman nulimarine were
token today. CMnnl repreeentlliK the
estates of Mrs. Josephine Utualere. of
New York nrot inn Vranclsco, and Dr.
Edmund F. Woods, of Jnnexville. Wis.,
Med with the Stats Department tho
form-il ileninnda for lndmnltles
No amount Is named In the papr-rn. ns
that la a matter which will be settled
between Count von Bernstorft. tho Gor
man Ambassador, when ho returns lieie
next week, and the department. The de
cision, however, will be most linixirtnnt,
at when It Is out of the way the Stato
Department will take up the question ot
whether Germany will pay an Indemnity
for tho loss of American lives through
the Lusltanla's sinking.
Official declared today that, Inasmuch
as Doctor Woods ond Mrs UruRitlero
lost their lives after Germany hud ls
nlued her Intention to cense submarine
attacks without warning, Of i many hardly
will haggle about the sum to be awarded
No steps yet have been taken 10 i
mlno whether Germany will be asked to
pay damages to American Importers who
lost heavily on the cargo that went dewn
with the Arabic. Germany has remained
silent on that subject. Neither 1ms tho
question of Indemnity for tho loss of nl
most 200 American lives on the I.usltnnla
been considered yet It Is not believed
here that Germany will agree to settle
for those losses.
Officials based their hopes for a Bon
etous Indemnity from Germany to the
heirs of Mrs Brugulere and Doctor
Woods on tho liberality of Great Britain
In settling American war claims. They
believe Germany will not bo outdone by
her British antagonist In her efforts to
keep on friendly terms with the United
states.
For Instance, Great Britain within n
few weeks of the occurrence palu $11,000
to tho family of Walter Smith, of Buf
falo, N Y., an obscure hunter, killed by
a Canadian patrol while armed In Can
adian terrltorj Officials hero at the time
admitted that tho claim had little merit.
In like manner, George B. Montgomery,
a wealthy resident of Buffalo, was shot
last winter when tho boat In which he
was cruising went too noar a prison enmp
In Bermuda. So satlsfictory were tho of
fers made oy tho British officials that set
tlement Is proceeding privately between
Mr. Montgomery and the London foreign
Office.

DISCORD RUMORED
AMONG THE COUNSEL
IN NEW HAVEN CASE
Several of the Lawyers Want to
Move for Dismissal of Com
plaints Against Indi
vidual Clients '
'OLD COLONY' ABSORPTION
NKW YOIUC, Oct. .7. Humors of dis
cord and friction among counsel for the
millionaire defendants In tho New Hnven
conspiracy trial were freely current to
dny. Several of tho lawyers, notably Mr.
Baric, for Hobert W. Taft, want to move
now for dismissals as to their Individual j
clients. There have been several stormy
meetings ot counsel this week, nnd todny
It was stated that Taft and several other
defendants, whose names have not been
dlroctlv connected with nny evidence tho
Government so far hns Introduced, have
been restrained from moving for Indi
vidual dismissal only through deferenco
to William Itockcfellcr nnd his counsel,
n I lM.lnl.ti,. Tnft ntnl iinvnrM other
defendants assert that the Government's
cnne so far hns not touched them. t
The morning session today was occu

McGlone "Most people aro too namby

what he preaches. Tho police In the
northeast can vouch for the fact that
there Is no better provider of excitement

Pat proved It today He found two bas
ket of rather tlejected-looklnit tomatoes
on tho boundary line ot a Krocer'a side
walk and took them under his win. The
VoKotnbles had loitf jrntdtintet! from tho

This Is Sensible Reasoning
e Believe Yoia Will. Too
THIS is the best time of year to buy
your motor car.
Don't wait until spring.
There is nothing to be gained by
waiting and something may be lost.
For you may pay more for your car
in the spring.
Materials Going Up
A great flood- tide of prosperity has
set in and raw materials are advancing
very rapidly.
If we had to buy material for the
Chalmers Six-40 in the present market
we would surely have to price the car
at least $100 more.
You are thus saved a considerable
amount. You are buying a car for
$1350 that is worth a great deal more.
We Foresaw the Rise
For we bought ten months ago, in a
much lower market, and therefore can
leave the wonderful price of $1350 un
disturbed for the present.
We .are building a great quantity of
these -cars. But the tremendous de
mand for the first three months an
increase of over 300 per cent has been
such that we now seriously doubt
whether we can meet the balance of the
season's requirtments with material
already bought.
And if we have to buy another "mak
ing order," at present prices the price
of the Six-40 will simply have to go up
nearly, if not quite, $100.
We can guarantee every buyer that
there will be no reduction in the price
of this car next spring.
But we are sorry we cannot guarantee
there will be no increase.
A Better Reason for Buying
Now
There is, however, another reason
wholly aside from price why you should
buy your car now.
Those who own motor cars are really
getting the most enjoyment out of
them just now.
For there is no better time to
tour in the country or drive in the
city than the beautiful autumn
days we will have between now and
December first.

"Well, you can think It over quKstly

Improves Your Health
The air is crisp. It gets into your
blood brings the color to your cheeks.
Motoring in its coolness rests the
tired body and throws off the fatigue
of the day's work.
It will do you and your entire family
more good than anything else you
could do.
And think of the delightful surprise
for the family a tv- out in front they
did not expect until spring.
But we suggest that you do not at
tempt to surprise your wife. Take her
along when you buy the car. For one
woman's judgment on quality, comfort
and easy riding is worth that of a
hundred men.
A Touring Car and Closed
Car One Price
Then; when winter comes, for only'
$350 we can fit your Six-40 touring car
(Price $1350) with the handsome Chal
mers Palanquin, which will make it look
like a "built -to-order" limousine. It will
give you all the pleasure and comfort
the highest priced closed car could give.
Think it over only $350! Isn't it
really a fine investment for winter?
In the spring you can take off the
Palanquin top and have the perfectly
appointed touring car for summer ser
vice. This top is so built that it can be
taken apart and stored in a small corner
of your garage, which removes the ob
jection of bulk.
Have the A Jded Pleasure Now
Again we say there is nothing to be
gained by delaying your purchase. The
chances are you will pay more for your
car in the spring; and you will be out
not only the extra money, but the added
pleasure and enjoyment that will be
yours if you buy a car now.
A visit to our sales room will show
you all the latest Chalmers models and
implies no obligation to buy. We guar
antee you will not be importuned by a
salesman.
Just drop in and see the cars
while it is on your mind. And don't
forget materials are going up.
