trouble, the current cannot make a COM
piete run through the track circuit on ac-
count OF the opening In the relay caused
by the lack of power in the magnet.
The action is instantaneous. The cur
rent does not leap from the shoe to the
third rail, because 1t cannot return. The
effect is to break the circuit in the engine,
which results in eXtinguishing the green
light, setting the brakes and blowing the
whistle.
Each block is connected with the third
rail section at both ends of the block, so
that trains can never approach each other
nearer than the length OF the block plus
the lengths of the two third-rail sections.
On single tracks, such as the Erie branch
on which II has been installed, the blocks
overlap both ways, so that trains will not
collide head on at the end OF the block.
At public demonstrations It has been shown
that head-on collisions could not heppen.
Two engines racing toward each other,
with the throttles wide open and the en-
gineers leaning from the cab windows, We're
stopped at the ends of a block which they
both approached from opposite sides. As
soon as each struck the third-rall section
the air-brakes were set and both engines
were brought to a standstill within a few
hundred feet. although the engines were
still putting away with the throttles wide
open.
The entire possibilities Of me invention
are not shown as yet. because the third
rails are not continuous. The sections are
only long enough to give the air-brakes a
chance to stop the train before the brushes
have passed off. which is 500 feet on the
Erie. While the train is passing from one
third-rail section to another. It is entirely
cut off from Communication
There Is, however, nothing to hinder the
Omaha daily bee., 1910-01-16

only short breaks between blocks, and IL
will be a necessity If the telephonlng pos
sibilities are used.
There is at present no provision giving
the engineer warning Of the danger ahead
until suddenly the air brakes are opened
and the train Is brought to a stop by an
emergency measure. This can be remedl8,
however, by more extensive wiring and
the use of distant signals, not unlike those
in the automatic semaphone system.
Through them the engineer is informed
several blocks In advance of the condition
of the block he is approaching. At present
the same electric current which operates
the signals also applies the brakes, and, be-
fore he can grasp the throttle, the train Is
being stopped automatically, the amount
Of Earring the train receives depending on
tho brakes.
There II as yet only one current gener-
nted In the engine and this must be used
for both the signaling apparatus and tina
telephone. Obviously It cannot be used
for both at once. This Is recognized by the
inventor, and he has prepared a switch to-
be thrown whenever the telephone Is In
use. But this entails the consequence that
While the telephone Is in operation the
sigraIing system IS dead. TO be running
Dlnd'F ahcdu WIN no 9isHaiS 10 Buldc,
would be suicide. as even the automatic
stop is out OF commission.
A single current Is feasible, however. II
the telephone Is to be used for signaling
purposes only, as the telephone Is only
called into requisition when an engineer
receives information as to the track. butt
when II becomes a convenience for trafelI
ers, the telephone will need a current Al
to itself. This can be taken care OF by
providing an alternate current which can
be used over the same rails and wires
without interfering.

which is entirely separated from the rest
for signaling purposes.
A current of electricity generated at one
end passes down a rail to the other, where
It goes through a relay containing an cleo
tromagnet, which must remain energized
In order to keep the circuit closed. In other
automatic systems, the current then passes
to the other rail and returns to the battery,
but in the LacroiX system a slightly more
complicated arrangement Is necessary In
order to permit II to pass through the short
sections of third rail at both ends OF the
track and include them within the block.
In both, the track circuit depends upon
the magnet in the relay remaining ener-
gized, but this It will only do while the
full current is passing through II.
AS soon as an engine runs into the
block, the wheels and aXles form a short
path for the electricity, and only a small
amount OF 1t passes through the relay,
not enough to hold the armature and keep
the circuit closed.
On the ordinary automatic system, the
opening of tho circuit. whether from the
presence OF a train, a broken rail, or a
landslide, sends the signal on the sema-
phore to danger. The working Of the
Lacroix system Is quite different.
When a block is occupied or in trouble
the approaching train first learns OF II
when the shoe strikes the third rail at the
end OF the block. Previous TO that time,
while the train was passing over a clear
track, whenever the shoe struck a section
OF the third rail the engine current passed
out through it 10 the track circuit, then
through the track relay, which was closed,
back to the track and home through the
wheels and body OF the engine.
But as soon as IL strikes a block where
the track current has been short-circuited
by the presence Of a train or by other
