s. b. SEeUR, Superintendent of the
Succor Mill and Mining Company,
has invented an unlocking device
which seems to be the most complete
in existence. Detaching hooks or
levers passed through the king-bolt
of the cage run up against bars in
case of overwinding above the sta
ton. When the cable is unlocked
the cage drops to the chairs. A rope
attached to false reel conveys the
cable back to the reel. Mr.. Segur
has caveat on his invention, and has
applied for patent.
