Gyroscope for Alaska.

The gyroscope, on which German and
English inventors have been working
furiously in the hope of revolutionizing
railroad construction, is to have a real
test in Alaska.
The system selected for Alaska is not
the German, which was exhibited in
the Clermont avenue rink a few months
ago, but the Brennan system, which
has been developed under the patron
age of the British war office. The idea
of the British support of the Brennan
car was that the gyroscope would make
possible the transportation of troops
through new country much more rap
idly and cheaply than the ordinary rail-
road could be built, in even its toughest
form. The same idea seems to have
impressed the Alaska capitalists. They
are going to build line of 100 miles
from the Matamiska coal fields toward
Fairbanks. ) the gyroscope requires
only a monorail, supported above the
earth on posts or trestles, the Seattle
man who has contracted for it expects
to build his line for $4,000 a mile in a
country where the ightest ordinary
railroad would cost from $4,000 a mile
upward. If the road already planned
works, extensions will be built.
The test on which this contract for
the use of the novel motors was based
showed an apparent departure in the
line of development of the gyroscope.
When the motors we're new we heard
strange stories of the wonderful speed
at which they would be able to operate
trains. But the test which satisfied the
Alaska promoters was one in which n
gyroscope car carried 100 passengers at
the rate of &c miles an hour. That at
least seems possible, If the machines
balance as well as the German ones
did in Brooklyn. while the reduced
cost of a single rail and the possibility
of making sharp curves and taking un-
usual grades claimed for the gyroscope
especially adapt it to use in an unda-
veloped, mountainous country. If this
experiment succeeds, Alaskan develop
ment will be hurried forward by leaps.
