I have employed the metal in crank-pin boxes on the Experimental Engine atSibley College, and in the bearings of water wheels which were under considerable pressure. We have trude some tests to determine accurately the friction-reducing qualities and durability of thismetal. On account of an accident to our machine these tests are not all completed, and a full report cannot be given atthe present time. Sufficient has been done, however, to indicate the superior quality in every respect. I may say that Ifully believe the metal has most excellent quality in every respect for the purposes and uses claimed. I am, sir, truly yours, K. G. Carpenter.(Professor of Experimental Engineering, Sibley College, Cornell University, Member Society Mechani-cal Engineers, etc., etc., etc.)
