COMPRESSED AIR MOTOR.

Compressed air is soon to be added
to the motive powers Of the street
railroads in New York. The adop-
ton of this new propelling force is to
begin on the Twenty eighth and
Twenty-ninth street lines, operated
by the Metropolitan Street Railway
company. Twenty compressed air
cars are now nearing completion for
these lines. Experiments have been
made for several years with new ap-
plication OF compressed air, bringing
results In practical fields, the pro-
motors contend, as certain as cleo
tricity and much safer, more economi-
cal, and more easily controlled than

locomotive stored with the air can
draw a regulation train OF cars from
Jersey City to Philadelphia at an even
speed OF 70 miles an hour without the
recharging of the chambers. Its ad-
vantages over the steam locomotive
are said to be economy, cleanliness

regular manner in which this power
is freed With the same charge 1t Is
just as easy to run the compressed
air engine so miles an hour as it is to
run it 20 miles for three hours, and
the time in which the distance is to
be covered is only limited by the
character of the roadhed.
