LIFTING THE BINS FROM THE FLAT CARS of a more or less pyramidal form, with one face vertical. Thisis, of course, on the farther side from the cableway, the moreinclined members serving as struts against the pull of thecables. The main timber members of the tower are 12 ins.x 12 ins. in size. Each tower is carried on fourteen pairs of the hoisting outfit, which comprises athree-drum Lidgerwood plant driven byGeneral Electric 57-motors. The drumsare controlled in the usual way throughfriction clutches and there is a brakeprovided in each case. One drum is forthe hoisting cable, the second for haul-ing the trolley and the third for dumping.The two motors drive the same shaftand they are controlled by a GeneralElectric K-11 controller. The cablewayoutfit was designed by the LidgerwoodManufacturing Company. The cars approaching the dumpingground pass alongside an elevated plat-form on which is mounted a jib crane.This is shown in one of the accompany-ing photographs. It is used for lifting
