which apparently was to inoite his audience to

The crowd. which was composed chiefly Of

taken up and resolutions were read. They de-
clared that the three negroes to be executed In

Also that tho three Hunearians who were to

in German. The audience bowled with de-

the alliance with the Canadian Pacific. They

Lake Shore and Michigan Central companies
had suf,icisnt independence. It is said. to give
Mr.. Depew piece OF their mind. They pro-
tested that the Canadian Pacific would inture

Everlasting Car wheeIs.

In an account of the works Of the
Northern Railroad Of France it is stated
that they have an ingenious plan In the
interests OF economy of making wheels
for cars by Bending up seven pieces Of
bar iron in such a shape that the center
fits inside Of band or false felloe
which, in turn. is hammered into a
groove in the tire. Felloe and bar are
riyeted together and the bars bent
roiWd to the center Of the wheel and
their ends then have a mold placed
below them; cast iron is then run in,
forming the hub. which is afterward
bored ont and the cast steel axle forced
in by $4,000 to sc. 600 pounds hydraulic
pressure. The life of the center Of the
wheel is said to be practically interrnin.
able under ordinary conditions. and the
eheapness is such that they are now
adopted almost entirely.
