Accumulator Traction in Paris. In the Street Railway Gazette of May 25 last, refer-ence was made to the storage battery traction system of theTramway Company of Paris and the Department of theSeine. The company has operated three lines by storagebatteries since 1892. Faults were discovered in the originaltype of cars, and to avoid these a new model has beendesigned which is illustrated in Fig. 1. Its weight, when. 5F~=~ spSpjhP wholly equipped, is tons, while that of the originaltype was 14 tons. Its imperial is extended at the rear,affording room for seats directly above the rear wheel base is 6 feet and 2 inches. The accumulatorsare not carried under the seats as in the former type, but ina compartment under the car between the axles as shown inthe illustration. The receptacle which carries the cells isheld by four steel supports attached to the truck. At theend of a trip when new batteries are required, a lowwagonet is run under the car and carries away the recep-tacle, and a new one with charge cells is quickly substituted. Each car is equipped with two single reduction shunt-wound motors, each of a capacity of 10 kilowatts. Theymake about 500 revolutions per minute, while the speed ofthose formerly in use was from 1,200 to 1,500 revolutionsper minute. A very effective brake can be used by short-circuiting the armatures; in fact, tests have shown that theordinary hand brak
