GEORGE WESTINGHOUSE,
INVENTOR Of A|R-DRAkE
Dead OF Heart Disease-Was
Also Inventor Of 9th.
er Appliances.

New York. March 12.--Georg,
Westinghouse, aged 81. foremos
figure in the world of engineering
and inventor of the air brake tina
bears his name. died late to-day a,
his residence in this city. Heart
disease manifested itself about ff
teen months ago and the end cam,
few hours after IL became publicly
known that he was seriously Ill.
Westinghouse became an inventor
at the age of Is, when he produced
rotary engine. Four years later
he constructed a device for replac-
ing derailed steam cars. Then, when
81 years old, he sought the fnan-
cial backing of the late Commodore
Cornelius Vanderbilt for his now ia
nous air brake. perfected after
three years of labor.
do you mean to tell me you can
stop a railroad train by wind?' de-
manded the Commodore.
We'll. yes, inasmuch as air is
wind, | suppose you are right"
spoke the youth.
II have no time to waste on
fools,'' said the Commodore, thus
abruptly terminating the interview.
Westinghouse sought and found
capital elsewhere. manufactured his
invention and made high speed pos
sible on railroads. revolutionizing
traffic systems and inaugurating
notable era of railway development.
Mr.. Westinghouse did not confine
his genius to railroading For half
a century he continued to make 9TH
err contributions TO electrical as well
as engineering advancement. His
inventions and improvements had to
do with railway signaling, the de-
velopment of the alternating cur
rent system for electric lighting and
power. devices for safety and for
economically conveying natural gas
over long distances and using air
springs for motor vehicles of all
kinds, and a geared turbine system
for the propulsion of ships, develop
ed in collaboration with the late Ad-
miral George w. Melville, L. S. ",
and John II. Macalpine.

What Hartford needs now more
than anything else is live and con-
tinuously active Commercial Club.
For several years this matter has
been allowed to lag. The last elect

public meeting should be held at
once, a new President, Vice Presi-
dent and Secretary elected and the
matter taken up In earnest. The

reason whatever why Hartford
should not have one.
