Burning of a Royal Motor=Car.
An untoward accident has befallen one of the motor-cars which His Majesty had intended to take with him to Biarritz. On Monday evening, Nov. 4th, as the railway porters were hoisting this 60-h p. machine on to the platform, it was seen that the oil reservoir was full. In the effort to empty it, a lantern was placed too near, the oil caught fire, and the automobile was completely destroyed. (Tlwts March W% 1907.)
