Electric brake.

Z 1t Ii surprising that among the meth
ods proposed for diminishing the dan
ger of electric cars, comparatively lit-
tie attention has been paid to mechan-
Ism for retarding the car and quickly
but smoothly bringing 1t to q stop.
This point was brought out IN . recent
editorial, which stated that ''the num-
Der OF deaths due to motor cars has
aIarmingly increased since the trolley
system liberated the sl0w-g0ing horse
and mule. Not that the deaths are
due to the electric current. The dead
~ trolley notion has properly been ex-
nloded It ID the chr wheels that are
doing the deadly work. {" II Is the fall
ure or inability to instantly retard or
arrest the motion Of the car that has
caused % many accidents IA Our city
streets, and the ordinary brake Is utter
ly ipai ta Tor the purpose. An cleo
sfric brake has lOn4 been talked o1,

plex movements hitherto necessary, It
enables the motorman to keep his wits
about him, and every movement of the
car under perfect control. Now, in
stead of having to handle the grip lever
or current controller and hand brake
at the same time, he does everything
by single controlling handle, starting,
accelerating, retarding and braking
both the car and the'trailers and 1t may
confidently be expected that the i'm
'provement will have the effect of re-
ducing the number of electric car acci-
dents by ut least two-thirds. The car
can be brought 10 a standstill within
three-quarters Of its length, and the
motion is described as mot a sharp,
jerky stop, but something as IL the car
had run into big feather tick" The
system operates with silence and abso-
lutte certainty, and its general intro
duction may shortly be looked for, as
electric railway companies will find
electric brakes cheaper than damage
suits.
The Bottineau pioneer., 1894-11-10

Electricity is fast dominating the ac-
tive operations entailed in sailing a
steamship. As proof Of the l.pid
progress being made in this direction it
may be noted that Of the utilizations
OF electricity on shipboard recently pre-
dicted by naval writer as possible
within the next few years every one
Is already available. He says:
The fog horns of the future will all
be blown by electricity; wate:-tight
doors located In no case below the
water line) will be opened by the same
means; the whistles and syrens will be
sounded ut set intervals and automatic
ally by the subtle current, and the
search-Gght aloft will be flashed in
every direction, or revolved, or both,
at the touch Of an invisible hand and
by an invisible power. And electricity
will do even more than this. It will
wind every clock on ship board and
strike every bell with exact precision.
It will discourse exquisite orchestral
music while dinner Is being served,
and will play the organ for the church
service on the Sunday evening con-
cert. Even the captains log can be
sent to the company's office on his
reaching port, and can there be made
to repeat the tones of his voice, and
without a flaw the details Of the voy-
age in his original Photographic dicta-
ton. and with the very howl Of the
tempest for the undertOne of its story"
The Tesla oscillator, which may revo-
lutiOniZe the construction and operation
OF ocean steamships ny disp ensing with
the enormous weight and expense of the
pIesent engines and boilers, is not yet
quite ready to drive ships across the
Atlantic, but many novel electrical ap-
p!.ct tiOns are announced as shortly to
be used in marine work. The electric
G1crnd trip has, after careful tests,
be found so reliable as an indication Of
the proximity of shoals or submarine
obs tructiOns that it may be regarded
as already practically available.
A system of telephones is about to be
introduced whereby communication can
be instantly had direct, without the
interv entiOn of Il central station, not
only between the captains cabin and
other points, but between all parts of
the ship, the system of intercOmmuni-
cation being absolutely perfect. A late
suggestion Is to use the automatic
sprinkler In ships holds, on the same
principle rs that in use in mills and
factories, for extinguishing fires as soon
as they are started, and thus avoiding
dependence upon the watchfullness
of attendants or the enforced ope1irg
of air vents in closed apartments. BY
this method, rs soon as the incipient
fire raises the temperature Of the
apartment to certain point, the valve
of the sprikler is opened and a deluge
of water falls and puts out the fire.
AnSther suggestion, which, however,
has not yet taken practical shape, bears
on the better protection Of vessels from
danger of collision in fogs. It. is pro-
posed that steamships shall send fof-
ward at very long range in their path
Of travel harmless but loudly detonatfng
dynamite explosives to convey a warn
ing to any vessel within the radius Of
half or even full mile away. and II
is thought that some form Of an electric
al torpedo may prove to be the most
effective means of carrying out the
idea.
