interest in this phase of invention was
not of the most vital character, and the
progress that has been made has, there
fore, been almost unnoticed. The ex-
periments that have been made during
the past few years, however, have I'M
questionably solved the problem m, for
now compressed air motors, of single as
we'll as of compound expansion, have
been made that are almost perfect in
their construction, and the recent Or
ganization of the International Air
Power company, with it's capital of
millions of dollars, will do much to
remedy the slight defects that now re-
main in the invention.
The difficulties that caused the fail
ure of all previous inventions have
been overcome in the new motors by
the discovery of better methods of
compression. Now the work is done in
successive stages, with intermediate
cooling, as well as by relocating the
air just prior to the time when it is
introduced into the cylinders of the
motor. The relocating is done by pass
ing the compressed air through tank
of hot water before placing it ic the
cylinders.
The single and compound expansion
motors are very similar in their con-
struction. In both systems the air ia
carried in storage TASKS, but in the
are in direct connection with the axles
while the compound expansion motors
are connected to q countershaft whose
pin1ons engage gear wheel on the
axle.
The success of both motors however,
has been sufficient to warrant their use
on street cars, and it will probably not
be long before companies in other cities
will take advantage of the new inven-
ton. In New York it is said to be the
intention of the Metropolitan Company
| to place Its entire plant under come
such system of operation, In which
case the compound expansion motors
| would be used on the trunk lines run
| ming north and south and the single
expansion motors on the cross-tOwn
and shorter lines.
| The following description will give
an idea of the construction and opera
ton of the motor: The air is inclOsed
in steel TASKS, at q pressure OF 22OO
pounds to the square inch. From these
TASKS it flows in pipes around the heat
err to q reducing valve, where it's pres
.ure is reduced and its flow equalized.
The air then passes through hot coil
to high and low pressure motors, II
which it drives the piston rods connect
ed with the gear attached to the car
From the motor the air ia allowed K
escape into the atmosphere. -Jame'

ment that they were to be used in the
New York streets came in the nature
of surprise.
To those who have kept in touch
with this line Of thought, however,
there was nothing astonishing in the
announcement, for during the past two
years the compressed air motors have
been improved to such degree that,
In point of economy a. least, they COM
pare favorably with the other and bet
ter known motors.
The history of the development of
thu motive powers from the dav of the
first steam locomotive up to the present
time, when the compressed air motor
may be said to have been proved a sue
cess, Is an Interesting subject of study.
More than fifty years ago Brunei, the
great inventor. conceived the idea of
making use of compressed air, and he
was so confident that he was on the
track of the greatest discovery of the
age that he built a railway in ENGLAND
several miles in length and equipped it
for compressed air, with power stations
and cOnduits between the rails. His
system was to have the compressed air
forced into the conduits, into which a
piston, attached to the car by means of
pillow, was placed. 1t was intended
that this should slide along and furnish
the motive power; but the whole
scheme was failure.
During the next half century repeat
ed efforts were made to solve the com
pressed air problem, but none succeed
ed, as there was always q serious loss
OF power, due to the fact that q large
portion or the energy expended in
COMPRISING the air was transformed
into heat. which subsequently was lost
by radiation. Another trouble that
could not be overcome was that when
the compressed air was utilized in
motors it's expansion was accompanied
by a reduction of temperature, which
produced accumulations of ice sufficient
to choke the exhaust.
The repeated failures along this line
have tended to discourage those whose
