A BIG SHIPMENT.
Train Loaded With Brewery Tanks Goes
Through Worcester To-Day.


There will pass through Worcester
today special train from the Pfaud-
Ter Vacuum Fermentation Company OF
Detroit en- route for Boston. which con-
tains the largest single shipment of
machinery ever sent out in the United
States.
The train consists of special cars,
each double the size of an ordinary
car, and is to be run as a special
freight on schedule time by the Red
Line fast freight over the Lake Shore
and Michigan Southern, New York
Central and Hudson River road and
the Boston and Albany, the train leav-
ing Detroit the 21st and passing through
Toledo Sandusky, Cleveland, Eric.
Dunkirk, Buffalo, Batavia, Rochester,
Syracuse, Oneida, Rome Utica, Little
Falls, Schenectady, Albany, Pittsheld,
Springfield, Worcester and Boston.
The tanks with which the special cars
are loaded are the largest spoctments
of enamelled ware in the world, and
this is the largest shipment OF brewery
machinery ever made. The tanks are :
feet in diameter, and Is feet in height,
and each contains 1876 barrels. These
are taking the place of the wooden
tubs in brewing and wine cellars, and
supplanting iron receptacles in glucose
manufactures. They are coated on
the interior with enamel which IS
burned into the steel, making them
equivalent to a glass bottle holding 49,
barrels.
Although these tanks weigh four tons
each, electric hoists and rroileys easily
catch them up, and move them about
like feathers. Compressed air. accord
ing to the plan of the American Whea-
lock Engine Company of this city, is
utilized in the manufacture of the
tanks in various ways. When the tank
is ready to be enamelled a sand blast
is driven by compressed air across the
face of the steel until 1t is polished
as smooth as glass. The tanks are
painted outside by brushes operated by
compressed air, and pneumatic machin-
cry.
Although an American Invention
when the idea started a few years
since, it has been necessary to buy the
steel of Krupp, the famous German
gunmaker but now everything in tile
process of manufacture is bought in
America, since plans for the erection,
of an enameling furnace were pro-
cured in Belgium.
The process itself is secret, but the
main substance employed is cryolite, a
f1uoride of sodium and aluminium found
in Greenland. The mine itself Is owned
by Denmark, and is the source of con
siderable revenue to the government
which exercises the rights of a monop-
oily over it. In applying the enamei
to the steel, such heat is required that
mica plates have to be used to keer
the work in view, and the workmen
who are employed in this department
have become as accustomed to the de-
gree Of red heat necessary that only a
| few plates in thousand are ever in
jured The value OF the shipment
which Worcester will see on this train
in $55, $50.
| In the route which the train will take
prominent manufacturers will lR invi-
ted to see the train, and already m this
! city many invitations have been sehi
to the leading manufacturers of the
place to be present and view the train

ed With Obtaining Money Illegally
s>.sNiplo, the life reader. whose career
in Worcester has been interesting. has
come to grief in New Haven. where
he'has. been confronted by E. " Sholes,
a. young farmer residing in Preston, a
small Connecticut town, with a charge
of obtaining money and using it for
purposes not intended.
ShOies claimed that he gave the art
list $3.50 to invest in some scheme, and
since that time he has not heard from
the2lnoney.
if'Niblo" is we'll known in Worcester
where he introduced his schemes Of
personal interest, but Worcester was
a little too sharp for him, and he fail
ed TO make a success of his stay in
town The artist, who is now under
arrest, is widely known all over the
country, but by many different names.
While the police of New Haven were
making their investigation they de-
tanned the speciality man and a wo-
man supposed to. be his wife on a se-
rdous charge, and as they have as yet
been unable to produce any evidence
which will throw aside this matter it is
likely to come up for trial.

of the month, when it was $50, and the
lowest on the Both. when the mercury

was the 4th, when the record was so,
