[A model brake! Nothing to contra- ry Recharging device illustrated in the Aprilissue of Locomotive Engineering. It: ppears to me the most feasible of any-thing designed for that purpose that Ihave yet seen. During the last few years, presumablylike many others in a like position, I havebeen appealed to by several inventors tomake a test of some device of theirs in-tended as an automatic pressure a few instances where they have beensent with the proper authority, brakes inthe instruction car have been equippedand considerable time has been spent ex-perimenting before their valves were per-fected on one car to their satisfaction, tobe finally knocked completely out whenused in conjunction with more cars orfor various other practical reasons.

Entirelynew to the air-brake world! Does all wehave been doing (?) and ten times more!Such terrific strides! Oh, Joseph! Whatan investigator! Where are your eyes?—Ed.] Concerning the Marsh RechargingDevice. Editors: I have studied with considerable in-terest the Marsh Pressure-Retaining and has gone to the trouble and expense ofmodels and patents without previous suc-sessful experiment, however, from my un-derstanding of the drawing and explana-tion, if the usual exhaust port were closedand a triple valve defective (having a leakto the cylinder from either the auxiliaryor the train line), the brake would setwhile recharging the auxiliaries. I thinkthis device could be so altered as to makeit operative from the locomotive entirelyinstead of requiring the trainmen to turna cock on each car bef
