FOR TRAMWAY TEST
France and Germany Also Get
Orders for 5000 Tons of 100-
Pound Railroad Iron.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
TOXIC, March 12.-The japanese
government railway department has
ordered more than 5000 tons of 100
pound type rails from America,
simultaneously ordering similar
quantities of light rails from France
and Germany.
The purchasing and engineering
heads stated to Kokusai Japanese
News Agency that the American
rails had been ordered because of the
desire for a more complete and more
extensive test of the open-hearth
rails. which it was believed would be
an Improvement over the old Besse-
mer furnaces imported before 1907,
the latter having later been found
unsuitable by official tests.
1t was added that the present
American rail order would be used
experimentally for tramway con-
struction, but not on the steam rail-
roads.
1t was explained that in placing
the present order "the authorities
found not a little encouragement in
the remarkably low bid by the Amer
leans" Prior to this time the Amer
lean bid seldom fell below 110 yen
per ton for open-hearth rails. The
present bid was even far below 80.
