This Company has lust been Incorporated II

II can be used with both the overhead or conduit
and will control patents covering these points
Everybody admits that the COMING system for
propelling street cars is that Of the STORAGE
BATTERY. This the Union Electric Car Com
pany now controls. It is no experiment, but an
absolute certainty, and IL is believed that theirs
will take the place Of all other systems Of Electric
street Railroads now In USE.
When electric cars are brought 10 a stop on
heavy grades great amount Of power is requr-
ed aud is lost. By our method ali that power is
held, and used over again, consequently a saving
is made in this direction
II Is said that so far there is no system Of
storage battery Of sufficient power to prUpel
Electric Cars, successfully, which is a fact when
used by those cars now In use, but by our system,
50 much less power Is required to propel a car,
that the storage battery will do the business sue.
cessfully. The reason is this:
That by all other systems in use the machinery
required TO prOpel a car Is exposed to the dust,
dirt and weather and the cogs become gritty ON
account Of the adhesion Of fine dust and dirt,
which causes continued grinding, and hard
wear, and 10 grind this iron or steel requires an
immense amount Of power, which Of course is 50
much unnecessary waste and expense, as 1t is not
only taking more power to run the car but II is
also wearing out the machinery very fast. our
system Overcomes all this, as the cogs are fitted
together with the utmost care, aud are enclosed
very securely in oil chambers, in which they re-
VolNe, and the consequence is all the wear and
tear is avoided and but small proportion Of
power is required 10 run the machinery
Arrangements are being made for putting this
system in Newport, X. L. aud Ia Newton and Dan
vers, Mass. The company furnish and fully equip
cars for any Street Railway line, and any X. X
Co, with a fair rOadbed can at once put the cars
in service on their road
1t has been seen by many prominent and prac-
teal street railway men and is endorsed 10y them.
