At a recent automobile show at Richmond, England, a motor vehicle for use in warfare was exhibited by its inventor, Mr. Frederick Simms. This carriage, which has been called a motor-scout, is fitted with one and one-half horse-power, which can propel it, if need be, at the rate of eighteen miles an hour. Mounted upon the motor is a light Maxim gun, so arranged that it can be fired in any direction and when the car is going at any speed. Mr. Simms has designed another motor, mounted with two Maxims, carried in two revolving turrets, and having also an electric searchlight. The motor exhibited at Richmond behaved admirably on all kinds of ground.
