Air Splitting Train TrlnIs.

BALTIMORE. May 2S. - The cigar
shaped air splitting train on its second
trial trip between Baltimore and Wash
ingtOn beat all records on this division of
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad With
a train Of six cars and light, ordinary
56 ton locomotive the run of 40 miles was
made in 81 minutes and so seconds, an
average speed of 7S miles an hour. This
included the slowing up on two miles of
track within the environs of Baltimore
and similar distance in the suburbs of
Washington. Inventor Adams is still
confident that his cir splitting device will
enable a train to make 100 miles an hour
with a locomotive that can haul an ordi-
nary train at speed of 80 miles an hour.
