A weighing Machine Wonderful for
Size aud Accuracy.

Everybody is perhaps aware that
the large scales upon which entire
freight cars with their loads OF many
tons are weighed are considered I'M
mense, says the Washington Times,
but with all their immensely IL seems
that they are meagre in the eyes OF
Uncle Sam, who has gone all the rail-
road mugnates In the country ono
point better by installing at the navy
yard I'M this city one Of the largest
scales In the country,
This machine can outweigh tho
largest railroad weighing machines
by so tons, and when II is considered
that It's results must be accurate 10
the weight Of u pound, while railroad
scales are considered good II they
approach anywhere near so pounds
OF being correct, W Is TO be maryelled
vt the advances that have been made
in scale manufacture In recent years,
At q hurried glance they are not
unlike the ordinary platform or hay
scales. Closer investigation reveals
the fact that they are 4S feet wide,
and that they rest upon u cement
base built upon long piles. The
ground Is somewhat low, and IL was
necessary to utilize the services OF
pile-dryers to secure q stable founda.
'tion, which Is one OF the requisites
of an accurate weighing machine.
The cost was about $1,000.
In order to illustrate the accuracy
OF the counterpoise OF the machine to
reporter the superintendent OF
yards and docks picked up u half
brick which was lying on the ground
nearby and tossed II on the huge
platform of the machine. lie then
consulted the long brass lever in the
reading box along the side OF the
scales and found that the record OF
the brick was just pound
Turning TO the reporter, he said
that the machine is so sensitive that
it can weigh anything from pound
Of sugar to u trio OF l3.inch naval
guns, and weigh them accurately,
though It will probably exc out u
long existence at the famous gunshop
without having a chance to weigh an
ounce OF the former, The capacity
of the new scales is 15O tons, or
double the capacity Of the old scales,
which have just been replaced by the
new ones. A l3-inch gun weighs
about 55 toms, and 1t may be ready
seen that the new scales can weigh
two of the monsters, reclining on
4S-foot car.truck, and not tax its Gu.
pacity TO any great extent. All the
big guns OF the new navy will be
weighed upon these colossal scales,
