Railway Passenger travel.


General Horace Porter's very interest

The invention. which was patented
in 1857, succeeded not only IN supplying
the means Of constructing a perfectly en-
closed yestibale Of handsome architectur-

accomplished what i even still more i'm

piiance more valuable than any yet de-

which are attached to the ends Of the
caas. have steel frames, the faces OF bear

springs. which create friction upon the
faces Of the frame, hold them firmly IN

the platform to the roof, which preeludes
the possibility Of one platform riding
the other. and producing teiescoPing in
case Of collision. The first of the vesti-

PENNSYLVANIA Railroad in jane 1856, and
they are rapidly being adopted by rail-
