The improved method of drivingthe generatois was designed by Mr. Morris Moskowitz, ChiefElectrician of the company, and the improvements in lubrica-tion were devised by Mr. George K. Wheeler, Superintendent ofthe company. The Electric Axle Light & Power Company has recently as-sumed control of the National Electric Car Lighting Company,the new company being incorporated under the laws of NewJersey with an authorized capital of $25,000,000. The introduc-. Driven Pulley-Showing Method of Holding the Fibre Filler. tion of the axle light is to be pushed, and it is understood thatthe company is also experimenting with a system of car re-frigeration, in which the power will be taken from the the same way as it is now taken for electric lighting. The use of the old Piovidence station in Boston for trainswas discontinued on the morning of September 10, the trainshaving been transferred to the new South Union Station atthat time.
