AIR Authoritative Statement That It Will Be Tried Here. ON THE ECKINGTON ROAD FIRST Railroad Men Confident That the Problem Has Been Solved. MR. DOLAN’S STATEMENTS a The Widener-Elkins-Dolan syndicate of Philadelphia, which is interested tn the Soldiers’ Home and Eckington and Belt Line railwey companies of this city, has, {t 1s annourced, perfected a compressed air motor, with which it will in the near future cquip the Soldiers’ Home and Eck- ington line, later relaying the tracks of the Belt Line and planning the same sort of rapid transit there also. This at least wes the information given last evening to a Star reporter by Mr. Do- lan at his home in Philadelphia. Continuing, Mr. Dolan said: “The people of Washington have been disposed to dis- believe myself and my asscciates when we have stated that we would successfully op- erate a compressed air motor in that c’ and some persons have abused us without stint; but, nevertheless, we have gone ahead and made our experiments with compressed air until we have succeeded in getting 2 motor which will meet every re- quirement for rapid transit travel. “I became interested in this mode of pro- pulsion several years £0, upon being con: vinced that some power was needed by which the people of cities who had been accustomed to riding en horse car lines could secure a medern mode of travel where the authorities would not permit the use of the overhead trolley, and where the expense necessary to build an underground system would not be justifiable. Not After a olley. “Right here I want to say that the charges made that we want to get an overhead trol- ley in Washington are untrue in every par- ticular. We know such an attempt would be useless, and we would not waste our time trying to get it. Nor is there any truth in the report, so industriously circulated in some quarters, that we want the Anacostia line. Our experience in Washington rail- way properties has not been of an encourag- ing nature. We went into the District of Columbia and bought up a lot of broken- down street railways, paying entirely too much for them, and have operated them at a loss of $100,008) a year, and if I could get out of Washington the money that we have invested there, neither myself nor my asso- ciates, Messrs. Widener and Elkins, would ever spend another dollar in the place. An Early Trial. “Now, as to the Soldiers’ Home and Eck- ington and Belt Line railways. We are con- vinced that it would never pay to convert them Into an underground electric system; the expense would be entirely too great. But we do expect to have rapid transit on the first named road within a couple of months, and on the latter as soon there- after as new rails can be laid. “The introduction of the compressed air motor into Washington at the earliest pos- sible moment is dependent on but one thing, and that is the suce which it will at- tain on the tracks of the Metropolitan Kail- way Company of Ne York, company we have made a contract to op- erate a number of cars on seme of its most important lines. I have no doubt whatever that the New York experiment will prove entirel vessful, and 1 am therefore look- ing forward to their equent op- eration in W Contident of Success. Mr. Dolan said further that it was he who has taken an active interest In having the compressed air motor brought to a state of perfection, his associates, Mess Widener and Elkins, being unable an a count of pressure of important business engagements to pay any attention the matter, though they had, at his invita- tion, invested money in the enterprise. Mr. Dolan declined to go into the details es to the construction of the new motor, but a friend of his, who, it is said, is well posted in the matter, told The Star re- porter that “for several months past Mr. Dolan or some one representing him per- sonally has from time to time been mak- ing occasional but very quiet trips to a town in Massachusetts where the cars for the New York line are being manufactured and tested. Expert engineers who have been taken Into the secret and permitted to view the operations of the motor have be- come enthusiastic. “In the construction of the cars the stor- age reservoirs are placed under the body of the vehicle, and are hidden from vie by wire screens. Reservoirs with a capa ity of forty cubic feet of air will run a ar sixteen miles in an hour without stops, or twelve miles an hour with stops. Larger reservoirs will carry a car twenty miles in an hour, and still have left a reserve force. The reservoirs are of and tested to stand double the amount of pressure that it will be necessary to put upon them. “The air is compressed to about 2,000 pounds to the square inch. It is not ex- pected that the reservoirs will hold enough for the long distance service necessary in New York, so station reservoirs wili be placed along the route. Each car will be furnished with a flexible tube connection, and it will take leas than half a minute to replenish the reservoir at each station. “One great advantage of the new is the ease with which cars can be even when running at the full sp cur running at the rate of twenty miles an hour can be brought to a dead stop within a few feet. It is also po: le to reverse the action and back them, which is out of the question with the cable system.” There is much interest in Philadelphia in street railway circles in regard to the new motor, and some engineers are so en- thusiastic in reference to the matter that they are predicting that it will soon to a great extent displace the trolley. eee PREPARATORY SCHOOL, Graduating Exercises of Howard Department.

Nerves, blood, muscle and brain mty demand ever so much of the tissue- building and esergizing properties of food, but the stomach bas no power to prepare them for the system.
