STREET RAILWAY GAZETTE. 89 BAX STATE CAH FENDEB. Perhaps no subject is receiving more attentionat tlie present time than that of car fenders. Themanagers of electric roads in various parts of thecountry are considering the adoption of some sortof fender for electric oars which are run at a highrate of speed through crowded streets. Manystyles of fenders have been brought out andplaced in either actual or experimental use. The accompanying illustration shows one form ternating currents to determine the least numberof changes of direction per second that could beutilized and also study the effects of higher ratesof alternations than had heretofore been consid-ered practicable or had been the subiect of care-ful study by other investigators. The experimental machines served the purposefor which they were designed, and other machines.
