New Welding Material.

Welding broken shaft. or even the
enGs of rails on trolley lines, is consid-
cred OF sufficient Importance to require
experts at the head of the work, but il
the new welding material, thermite,
fulflls all that is promised, unski.ied
workmen may be doing this work in
the near future. The thermite rail-
welding process has already been ac-
cepted abroad, and 10000 joints have
been united by this system in forty
European cities. The rail ends must
be claned from dust and rust by wire
brush and then slightly warmed. A
mold is then fitted around the ends and
the thermite is heated in a crucible
directly above the entrance to the
mold, into which it flows as soon az
the temperat ture rises to the melting
point. The welding is done automati'
cally by the thermite itself. and thu"
the supervision of all expert welder is
not required. In welding 4 heavy
shaft the mold is built -p around it
and the heat applied to the crucible as
before, a process which might saIe
raluable time on board ships.

19O4-My Dear Mr.. Parker: The
Times of this morning says that the

that it will go to the printer in a
few days. Therefore, hasten to beg
you to see to it that there is no
word in it that reflects upon the per-
sonal honor and integrity of President
Roosevelt.
IAN Evening Post editorial indicates
that but little care was taken in that
direction toward myself by the COM
piler of the republican text book, but
let there be no rejoinder in kind or
otherwise.
Il feel confident that you need lo
reminder, still my anxiety impels me
to send this caution. Very truly yours.
