late yesterday Afternoon This report b
practically the same Jas detailed daily from
time to time In The Stars account OF the
trials: 0. 0,
After setting forth the fact that the tests
were to include five tripss per day for four
consecutive days on a route running from
the lexington car house 20 18th and @
streets and return, he gives the number of
stops and the amount Of air used and then
says:
.'On the third trip, September %, when
the air motor car reached Florida avenue
an electric car with forty passengers ON
board was held up by breakage Of the
trolley wires, and was unable to proceed.
The car was taken in tow and hauled to
the corner of 4th and T streets.
The third trip on September q was
made during a violent rain storm. The
tracks at lexington place and Florida ave-
nue. were covered with water fully foot
deep when the car reached the point going
west. The only delay occasioned was by a
morse car which had been derailed by the
heavy wash.
During the test the car ran with great
regularity, being always ready at the ap-
pointed times; the only impeachment to
rapid motion being the slow-moving horse
cars running on the same track. The car
starts and stops without shock or violence,
responding promptly to the work and speed
demanded. and runs with little noise or
lateral vibration.
The present appliances for COMPRISING
and supplying air are crude and imperfect,
but with proper and economically ar
ranged plant there IS no reason to doubt
the successful operation of the system
