Electric Car Brakes.

Considerable interest has been
awakened In the trial OF a new cleo.
trio brake on n New York street car.
The power is furnished by the trolley
current The motorman applies the
brake with handle. similar TO that
OF the ordinary air.brake. and releases
Il by pressing a foot-pedal. says
Youths Companion. II Is said that
with the electric brake the labor OF
the motorman is greatly reduced.
while the stops are effected more
smoothly and easily There is no
surging OF the car. the reason offered
being that the electric brake can be
released instantly. whereas the air
must escape from the cylinder OF the
air brake before the pressure on the
wheels can be relieved. To provide
against failure Of the trolley current.
a device Ii furnished whereby the
motor can be short-circuited. and the
car thus quickly stopped.
