The boiler isof the water tube pattern. There are twocylinders working compound with diam-eters of 9J4 ins. and ISA ns., with astroke of 15^ ins. The driving wheelshave a diameter of 39^ ins. The en-gine is about 150 , with a speed of20 miles per hour. The weight of thecar. empty, is about 20 tons. It is di-vided into a luggage compartment, a sec-tion to seat 8 non-smokers, and a largersection to scat 30 smokers. Herr Gols-dorf, an eminent Austrian engineer, hasfitted (he engines with .i new type of. AUSTRIAN STE.^M RAILWAY MOTOR CAR. British Government was troubled withbursting guns, as the railway men arenow troubled with breaking staybolts,twelve tests were made to discover bet-terments obtainable from reworkings,viz.: Tests I and 2: Were samples ofonce rolled iron from the pud-dled bars. Average tensile strength 49,504 Tests 3 and 4 and 5: Were sam-ples cut from across the grainof the gun. Average tensile strength 43,390 Tests 6 and 7 and S: Were sam-ples cut with the grain from thegun. Average tensile strength. .50624Tests 9 and 10: Were boringsfrom the gun, worked over withcoal for fuel. Average tensile. .61,704Test 11: Was borings from thegun worked over with charcoal valve gear, consisting of a combination of simple levers without the usual radiallink.
