VACUUM JAR CARS
 0f MOLTEN METAL
Alt ked Successfully by Big Rolling Mills

Aiddletown. Ohio. Aug. 4.-Pe Three newly designed vacuum jar tank ears. each weighing 3s0 tons when loaded. have been put into op- eration by the American Rolling Mills Company of Middletown tc transport molten metal to its open hearth furnaces from the blast fur naces of the koppers Company, ten miles away.
 Four times a day 15o tons of liquid metal are hauled over a re enforced road bed of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad between the fur race$. So great is the weight impos- ed on the road bed that a bridge over the Miami river was built to withstand load almost 50 per cent greater than any other known span in the world.
 The cars, double-llred with fire brick, make it possible for the metal to be kept in its molten state until it can be poured into the open hearths. Oheials Of the company explain that formerly it was neces- cary to charge cold pig iron into the open hearth and to subject it for several hours to high tenpera- ture to bring it into a molten state. All this Is eliminated through the use of the new cars
 Looking like land subr a-ines, with the ends resting on railroad tracks, the cars swing on pivots and empty their scorching load like it was 50 much water The meta! is spilled into ladies which take it to tho open hearth furnaces Two and | half hours are required for the round trip over the ten miles of track between the two furnaces. Metal can be kept molten in the cars as long as 4s hours. company officiah said.
