NINETY MILES AN HOUR

NINE 1 M1LEO AN HOUR.
Ninety miles an hour, without
any expenditure of power further
than that required by an ordinary
locomotive, is what is claimed for a
locomotive now being manufactured
by the BalGiwins. in Philadelphia.
1t is being built at cost of$1O,OOO
for W. J. Holman, an elderly in
ventor of Minneapolis, who has been
in the railroad business all his life.
and who has now invented some
thing which promises to completely
revoIntionize railroading.
The locomotive proper, says the
New York World, is an ordinary
machine with driving wheels five
feet in diameter, and when COM
pleted it is to be placed on what are
known as the Holman friction
geared trucks, which will raise it
just thirty inches above the surface
Of the rails. It will be just like any
other locomotive except that each
Of It's driving wheels rests upon and
between three other wheels that
finally rest on the rails. The in
slant the drivers begin to turn they
necessarily through friction give an
opposite rotary motion to the small
wheels upon which they bear, and
these small wheels just as necessar-
lily give a forward rotary motion to
the third set Of wheels upon which
they are bearing. The naJural and
inevitable result is that one revo-
ton of the locomotives driving
wheels, by this multiplicity Of
wheels in pyramid form, carries the
locomotive forward just twice as far
as a single revolution of the driving
wheels be on the rails themselves.
In other words, the speed of the en-
CINE, whatever that speed might be
on the rails themselves, is exactly
doubled by the use of this newly
invented truck.
In an experiment which was
made with an ordinary locomotive
thus mounted in Minnesota, on a
branch of the Northern Pacific rail
road, recently, a speed Of eighty
miles was said to have been easily
attained. The invention has been
kept quiet, it being the purpose of
those interested to say nothing
about it until practical utility was
demonstrated by run from Phila-
delphia to New York within an
hours time. That, it is believed by
the inventor, will be the shortest
and quickest way OF letting the
world know that new marvel III
mechanics has come into existence.
In addition to the increase OF
speed attainable, this new invention
will, it is claimed, save millions OF
dollars through the diminished wear
and tear upon the rails. for the
weight of locomotives will then be
further distributed along the track,
and at no point of. any rail Will
there be pressure more than one
third as great as is now eXerted by
the driving wheels.
