Guilty or danger
''It should be stated that where heavy loads
must necessarily be carried, a pair of sta
tionary supporting ropes, with an endless
running rope for the motive power, are en-
ployed, and that by these means as many
as thousand tons per day can be easily CON
veyed. The cost of erecting these tramways
in England, and of supplying motive power
and rolling stock, is from G250 a mile for
carrying fifty tons day in boxes holding
half hundredweight each, to G150O mile
for one of the double-rope lines, to carry one
thousand tons a day in boxes or trucks hold
ing six hundredweight each. For all districts
where there is traffic, but where it would not
pay to construct a railway, the wire tramway
is particularly applicable, and, as will be
readily understood, wherever there is standing
room for posts, there line can be erected
Arecenta application from traders in copper for
putting up one of them, which should run
through an African forest, and over an African
jungle down to the coast, illustrates the varied
circumstances under which the new system
of transport may be applied"

Wire Railways.
A NEW DSvENTIoN-FREIGHT CONVEYED OVER
WIRES.

A NEW INvENTIoN-FREIGHT CONVEYED OVER
WIRES.
"'A railway without cuttings, embank-
ments, tunnels, viaducts, or bridges, no mat
ter how hilly the country to be traversed-
such is the definition given by HeTGpath's
Journal of an invention now in use in Lei
cestershire, and working model of which
may be seen in Gresham street. E. c. The
wire tramway provides a simple and cheap
substitute for a line of rails, and is of great
service where, from the scarcity or intermit-
tent character of the traffic, or the engineer
ing difficulties of the ground to be got over,
IL is either not expedient or impossible to go
through the expensive process of forming a
local railway For the wire spans over and
evades obstacles in place of burowing under
or levelling them, and will perform its task
as easily along rugged tract Of country
as on the smoothest road. The expert
ment being now prosecuted with complete
success between some Leicestershire stone
quarries and railway station three miles dis
tant consists Of an endless wire rope, sup
ported on a series of pulleys carried by sub
stantial posts, which are ordinarily about one
hundred and fifty feet apart, but the interval
between which may be greatly extended, as is
shown in one case where the span from post
to.post is six hundred feet. One of the ends
of this rope passes round Fowler's clip
drum, worked by a portable steam engine,
and this drives the rope at a speed of six miles
an hour. Boxes are hung on the rope at the
loading end near the quarries by pendant
which is ingeniously arranged to preserve
perfect equilibrium, and at the same time to
pass without hindrance over the supports
Each of these boxes carries one hundred
weight of stOne and the delivery is at the
rate of two hundred boxes, or ten tons per
fhour for the three-mile distance.
Already wire tramways on the Leicester
SHIRE model are in course of erection in
France, Italy, and Spain. Negotiations are
on loot, too, between the Turkish Govern
ment and the engineers here, and it is not
improbable that this generation may see goods
carried by wire as commonly as messages
The tramway is, indeed not unlike an ex-
ceedingy stout electric telegraph; and there
Is something almost droll in the sight of a
regiment Of well-laden trucks or boxes pass
ing grayely along it at stated intervals, and at
regular pace, much as if they were at aerial
dl1ll. The most important point in Mr..
Hodgson's invention is his method of passinp
the points of support, which consists in SC
curying the frame of the truck or box as tc
make the centre of gravity come under the
rope 80 admirably is this managed that
some OF our leading engineers have beer
discussing quite recently the possibility o.
constructing stout wire tramway between
Dover and Calais, which should be supported
from line Of pillars in mid-ocean, and alon
