Currying Horses by Steam.

A curious machine, which cleans horses by
steam, is in daily use at the Third Avenue
railroad stables, replacing the currycomb. Its
standard rate is 100 horses in ten hours, but
Yesterday it cleaned I22 between 1880 a. m.
and $40 p. m with an hours intermission
for dinner. TO test it, extra good speed was
put on, and one horse was actually cleaned in
one minute and fifteen seconds, and more
thoroughly than by the ordinary process.
The horse is led under bar, from which
sal Joints. TurniAg on the arms are brushes
a foot in circumference. These are revolved
by steam through the arms and cross bar at an
ordinary rate of 500 revolutions a min
ute, which can be increased to 1000.
A man on each side takes hold of the arm
close to the brush and applies the brush
to the horse. The steam that whlrls the brush
makes noise good deal like the kissing Of
a hostler. The universal joints allow the
arms and brushes to be moved in any direc-
ton.
Beginning at the head, the men move the
brush along the sides, back and belly, and
down the legs of the horse to the feet. A
cloud of dust arises in the air, and in two
minutes the horse looks like different crea-
ture. The horses were little nervous at first,
but after few seconds all appeared to be
pleased with the operation.
At the Third Avenue railroad stables it
takes six men 1871 hours to clean or half clean
1913 horses by the ordinary process. If the
steam brush is passed aver the horse at a mod
crate speed once, each square inch is bruised
more than if an ordinary brush had been
passed over il 100 times. The dust settles on
the floor, accumulates rapidly, and is shoveled
into wheelbarow ond carted away.-[N. Y.

The subcommittee OF the Senate Com

alleged irregularities in the contingent ex-
penses Of the Treasury Department, held
two sessions yesterday. The examination
has been very searching one, the evidence
already produced covering between zoo and

will not be completed until late next week.
In its Investigation the committee 90 back

examined yesterday. His testimony
showed that the department. had purchased
enough hYacinth bulbs, geranium plants and
tulips to stock the botanical garden for

the next witness His testimony showed
that the attaches OF the department had an
especial fOndness for beaver gloves and fur
gauntlets. Senator Sherman was on the
stand for two hours He denied apv
knowledge OF any irregularity in the mat

scrutiny into he purchases; that he

watchers that the committee has elected

acceptable to individual service, were pur-
chased and their cost put down TO some
other article not calculated TO create sus-
