PAINTING BY MACHINERY

Both the Illinois Central and the
Louisville and Nashville paint all their
ears by machinery nowadays" said an
old railroad man yesterday, land the
apparatus used is very curious and in
teresting The paint is first mixed to
about the consistency of cream and
then poured into small steel tank con-
nected with a reservoir containing com
pressed air When the valve is opened.
the stuff is forced up into a flexible
tube about as big around as a mans
thumb and comes out of brass nozzle
in the form of fan spray, thin as a
knife blade. All the operator has to do
is TO wave the nozzle to and fro using
it exactly like brush. The spray at
the top is not more than an inch broad,
so if he wants a narrow stroke he has
merely to bring it near and vice versa
for wide one. They claim the appa-
ratus deposits a paint film of exactly
the same thickness throughout, which
is of course impossible to do with a
brush, and that its work is consequent
ly more durable and a better protection
from the weather. Be that as it may,
there is no denying it's superior speed.
While | was in Chicago last month |
saw couple of men painting old box
ears by the spray method in the Illinois
Central shops, and the rapidity with
which they worked was marvellous.
They stood on movable platforms
which were pulled forward and back
before the cars, and they literally
painted them on the run. The time
occupied for each averaged about Is
minutes, and they told me they could
do it in ten at pinch"

FROM MURPHY TO MANTEO
SIGNIFICANCE OF OLNEY's LETTER
" W Cor ChicapO Pncorl

SIGNIFICANCE OF OLNEY'S LETTER.
n. Y. Cor. Chicago Record.
New York, September 4.-Ex- Secretary
Olney, of Boston, has written a Letter de-
claring himself for the Democratic plat
form and advising all patriotic Democrats
to vote for Bryan. Mr.. Olney has been
considered an eXpansionist; he was the
strongest kind of a gold bug and voted
for Mckinley rather than for Palmer four
years ago. Just what reasons he will
give for his change has not been disclosed,
but intellectually he is very strong man
and exercise a powerful influence through
New England. He is general counsel of
the Maine Central railroad, has been the
foremost corporation lawyer in New Eng
land, is associated closely in a social and
business way with the heaviest bankers
and investors in that part of the country
and no other man can reach so many of
the class of people who expect the coun-
try to go to the bow-wows if Bryan is
elected. Therefore the effect of Mr.. Oh
ney's conversion will be greater than
would follow that of any other man ex-
cept Mr.. Cleveland. Olney was regarded
as the strongest man in the Cleveland
cabinet and the last that one would ex-
pect to go over to Bryan.

TT rs SIGNIFICANT.

The most significant letter of the
campaign is that of Richard Olney, of
Massachusetts, declaring his intention
of supporting Bryan and Stevenson.
Mr.. Olney was easily the ablest mem
Der of Cleveland's cabinet and in 1896
he led the revolt against Bryan. Now
he leads the procession of gold Dem
ocrats who will support the Nebras-
kan this year.
The change announced by Mr.. Olney
will be far reaching and will influence
thousands of votes. 1t has generally
been accepted that 100000 Democrats
followed Cleveland and Olney in 1896.
Already most of them are openly sup
porting Bryan. The position of Mr..
Olney will influence all the rest ex-
