ELECTRIC TRAIN RUN

United States Consul General Mason.
Berlin. Germany. has sent 20 the De-
partment Of Commerce and Labor an
interesting report on the experiments IN
high-speed electric traction at Berlin.
He described the experiments conducted
in 1901. at which a speed of 1872 miles per
hour was reached. at which pace the
track began to yield to the enormous
strain.
Since then improvements I'm rails, mo-
tors. etc. have have been made. and a
new series OF trials was made this
