Text Appearing Before Image:
FIG. 2.—DESIGN OF NEW CONTROLLER. The internal wiring of the controller has also been very muchsimplified, and as will be seen from the cut, the >wiring is entirelyopen so that it can be easily seen and gotten at.

In fact the arcing in this con-troller under the severest conditions of practice is so slight that it isscarcely noticeable.

The breakingcylinder is so designed that when from continued use the contactshave become worn, the cylinder can be turned end for end and theopposite edges of contact brought into service, thus practically com-pletely renewing the cylinder itself.

Trolley Wire for High Speed Lines. The accompanying engraving shows a new type of trolley wirefor high speed lines recently brought out by
