4 Automatic Air Brakes And How Operated. General Use of the Invention and the Order of Its Constructio Automatic Action and Pressure of of the Brakes Tribulations of a Train Hand, or a Lesson on Compressed Air Air Decker Cleans a Workman's Watch Machinery Used by Workmen Pressure System. Ever since the world was made air has played a very important part, and has held its own remarkably well. Pharoah, we are told, "stormed" after the children of srael left Egypt, and in all storms air is a prominent factor. Since the death of Solomon historians have blown" about his superior wisdom, which nineteenth-century men are inclined to doubt.

(Six hundred wives would make a doubter of any man these days.) But the fact remains that a great deal of air has been used in the past for various purijoses. But when the world was young and Susan B. Anthony was a baby, even the most visionary person would have hooted at the theory of using compressed air for the purpose of stopping wheels, and an air-pump, other than that manipulated by the village politician (long life to him and his hearty handshake), was in abeyance, awaiting the advent of modern brains and ingenuity. Even when the first string of railroad was laid down in Maryland, and the first locomotive engine rattied over the low Joints of the wooden rails, the engineer never even dreamed that in the future brake-blocks would be attached to the gearing of the cars and applied to the Wheels by means of compressed air; or that there would be such a city as Sacramento in which would be situated shops for the construction of cars, and In those same shops a department set aside for the building and fitting of "air-brakes," and other air and gas fixtures into those same cars. But while the first locomotive engineer was no doubt a genius, there were a great many things he did not know; and could he be resurrected and allowed to take a look at the different coils and tubes and boxings and cocks and tanks and equalizers and which are to be seen underneath any of the sleepers or first-class passenger coaches which ply the Southern Pacific system daily, he would throw up his hands and exclaim In the words of England's foremost statesman, when news was brought hlra that Edison had perfected a talking machine: "These Americans! What won't they do?" All cars of the Southern Pacific system, whether passenger or freight, are fitted up with the "Westinghouse automatic brake." The passenger and many of the freight cars are equipped with the Improved "quick-action automatic brake," which is now considered as the standard, and consists of the following very essential parts: First steam engine and pump which furnishes the compressed air.

Second main reservoir in which the compressed air is stowed. Third "engineer's brake and equalizing discharge valve," which regulates the How of air from the main into the brake pipe for releasing the brakes, and from the main train or brake pipe to the atmosphere for applying the brakes. main train or brake pipe, which leads from the main reservoir to the engineer's brake and equalizing discharge valve, and thence along the train supplying the apparatus on each car with air. auxiliary reservoir, which takes a supply of air from the main reservoir through the brake pipe and stores it for use on its own car. brake cylinder, which has its piston rod attached to the brake levers in such a manner that when the piston is forced out by air pressure the brakes are applied.

Seventh improved quick-action automatic triple valve, which is suitably connected with the main train pipe, auxiliary reservoir and brake cylinder, and is operated by the variation of pressure in the brake pipe, so as to admit air from the auxiliary' reservoir, and, under certain conditions, from the train pipe to the brake cylinder which applies the brake, at the came time cutting off communication from the brake pipe to the auxiliary reservoir or to restore the supply from the train pipe to the auxiliary reservoir, at the same time allowing the air in the brake cylinder to escape, which rel'-ases the brake. couplings, which are attached to a flexible hose and connect the train pipe from one car with that of another. air gauge, which being of the duplex pattern, shows simultaneously the pressures in the main reservoirs and the train pipe. pump governor, which regulates the supply of steam to the pump, stopping it when the maximum air pressure desired has been accumulated in the train brake pipe and reservoir. The automatic action of the brake is due to tho construction of the triple valve, the primary parts of which are a piston and slide valve.

A moderate reduction of air pressure in the train pipe causes the greater pressure remaining stored in the auxiliary reservoir to force the piston of the triple valve and its slide valve to a position which will allow the air in the auxiliary reservoir to pass directly into the brake cylinder and apply the brake. A sudd'n or violent reduction of the air in the train pipe produces the same effect, and in addition to this causes BUppl' ntal valves in the triple valve to be opened, permitting the pressure in the train pipe to also enter the brake cylinder, augmenting the pressure derived from the auxiliary reservoir about 14 per producing practically an instantaneous actum Of the brakes to their highest ettlciency throughout the entire train. When the pressure in the brake pipe cess of that remaining in the auxiliary reservoir the piston and slide valve are Gorced in the opposite direction to their normal position, opening communication the train pipe to the auxiliary reservoir and permitting the air in the brake cylinder to escape to the atmosphere, thus releasing the brakes. The application and releasing of the brakes is done by the engineer simply tnoving the handle of the engineer's brake valve to the right and left. A valve called the "conductor's valve" is placed In each passenger car, and In case of emergency the brakes may he applied by the trainmen by turning the handle of the valve, which allows the air to escape from the trainpipe.

Should a train break in tv.o the air in the brake pipe escapes and the brakes are applied Instantaneously to both sectfoai ot the train, Tho hrakM pro automatically applied should a hose or pipe burst. It will, therefore, be seen "that any reduction of pressure in the train pipes applies the brakes," which is the essential feature of the automatic brake. An automatic cock is placed at each end of the train pipe, and is closed before separating the couplings, thus preventing the application of the brakes when cars are uncoupled. A stop-cock is also placed in the branch pipe leading from the main train pipe to the quick-action triple valve, and one In the main train pipe near the engineer's brake valve and within convenient reach of the engineer. The former is for tutting out or rendering Inoperative the brake on any particular car which may, by accident, have become disabled, and the latter for cutting out the engineer's brake valve upon all but the leading engine, when two or more engines are coupled onto the same train.

Master Car-Builder Welch is authority for the following anecdote: When the automatic brake was first introduced in the Southern Pacific system a train of freight cars was fitted wut with it and taken over the mountains in order to test the qualities of the invention on heavy grades. Naturally enough word of the coming had preceded the train, and many people were waiting at each station anxious to learn all there was to be learned about the new invention. At Rocklin the train was carefully Inspected with a view of having everything iv lirst-class shape before ascending the grade, and here, as everywhere else, the citizens had gathered. One of the hands was particularly busy showing the merits of the brake, he happening to have in tow a bevy of fair dames and smiling damosels, and while explaining the intricacies of the invention, and how, by its use the speed of the train could be regulated to any pace required, oame to grief. It must be remembered that the air pusses through the pipes and hose at a pressure of about eighty pounds to the square inch, and when this ingenious individual parted the hose between the cars the idea dawned upon him, in spots, that he had overlooked something In the pursuit of his knowledge of air brakes.

At first those hose straightened out and then began to shake as though they had a palsy. Then they wiggled around at a fearful rate, and ended by slapping the workman on his stomach and battering him on the head and various other places until he was at length picked up limp and senseless. He had been taught a lesson he could never forget, and when he recovered from his drubbing, concluded he had missed his calling, retired from the compressed air business, and Is, at present writing engineer in chief oif a potato farm in the southern part of the county. The passenger cars of the Southern Pacific Company are equipped with what is known as "The Air Signal." This device is intended for the easy and certain transmission of signals from the train to the engineer, taking the place of the old bell cord, which upon trains of any considerable length was always unsatisfactory. A separate tine of pipe extends throughout the entire train and is united between the various oars with boss and couplings the as in the air brake system, but the couplings being of slightly different proportions, cannot be united with the air brake couplings.

A car discharge valve is placed over one sod door in each car, and is connected by means of pips to the main pipe under the car. A wire cord passi 9 a rough the oar, and extending of the hood at one end, is bad to the lever of the car discharge valve, enabling the use of the signal any part of the car. A small sig. is located In the cab by which the attention of the engineer is Sign are transmitted to the 6 tb. train by pulling the signal mi any car, thus opening the discharge valve and causing a and short discharge of air, which he pressure in the main pipe and its connections, and thus nut opening the signal valve the engine, air is discharged through Lhe small whistle in the cab, sounding mta corresponding to each pull of the ccrd from the train, and which may be given it the rate of one a second.

He approached Foreman Decker, unwrapped bis thoughts, and was assured that the cleaning process could be accomplished without the slightest trouble, and with the greatest dispatch. Accordingly the foreman attached a out -fourth inch reducer to the air hose so that the force would be concentrated In imeUl a compass as possible, and man who was an innovation to upset the plans of all watch: akeni was told to get his timepiece ready to have the dust blown out.

The operation was, as a surgeon would say. an unqualified success, for when the air was turned on ratchet rots, si-rings, hands and all the paraphernalia which enter into the construction of a watch went gaily lancing all over the shop, leaving the iter of the innovation with nothing but the case in his not much of that. Pi that day to this Mr. Decker has not been called on to clean any more watches, and the compressed air process has fallen into disuse, while the watch-tinker still collects his toll. ln the air brake shop is a hose malted by air, by which all hose the entire system are fitted with Oi upilnsja and nipples.

There is also another machine used for removing couplings and nipples from Old hose, and another, of simple but In- gt alone construction, used for cutting rubber gaskets, or joint fittings. in this Is the SACRAMENTO DAILY RECORD-TOtON, SUNDAY, MAY 31, 1896. Pintsch gas system for lighting cars. Cars are fitted out with the necessary apparatus, consisting of four tanks which are firmly secured under the car together with the necessary pipes and fittings. Pullman sleepers and a few private cars are, however, the only ones as yet furnished with gas.

In each one of these are ten center lamps having four burners each, and three bracket lamps having one burner each. The gas, which is generated from crude oil, is supplied to the cars at Oakland, and each tank holds about ten atmospheres of gas. The illumination of cars by gas is far more satisfactory than by oil, being much safer and giving a brighter, truer flame. The department also cares for the steam-heating apparatus for cars. The company is now applying to all of Its passenger cars a combination hand and automatic brake.

This is a very important arrangement, for the reason that both the hand and automatic air brakes can be operated at the same time. With the old style hand brake this is an utter impossibility, for the reason that the two brakes work in direct opposition to each other, though both work to the same end. Many of the Pullman sleepers operated by the Southern Pacific Company are equipped with the water pressure system. There are two tanks which furnish water for washing purposes; one underneath the car, which is the main supply tank, containing cold, fresh water, and another in the baker heating room, which furnishes hot water. By means of the air pressure the water is forced from the main tank to the smaller one, where it is heated either by steam or the baker heater.

Whenever a car is turned out of the shop the brakes, signal valves, conductor's valves, baker heater, steam heater and gas and water pressure systems are all thoroughly inspected so that when a car is placed in service everything will work smoothly. In order that the employes, whose business brings them in connection with the workings of the air brake in all parts, may practically understand its use, a special car, called the "air brake instruction car," Is fitted up with reservoirs, pipes, representing a train of cars. This car, which is under the charge of H. W. Decker, Foreman of the Air Brake Department at Sacramento, and Inspector of Air Brakes for the entire Pacific system, is sent all over the road and instructions given twice a day to employes connected with the department.

The Assistant Foreman is L. Nuttall, and he is assisted by the followingnamed workmen, who know all about compressed air and air brakes, and who are all chock full of Intelligence and information concerning the same: H. W. Decker, Inspector of Air Brakes. L.

At an early hour in the morning Allen Towle, the well-known lumberman, started with his family in a carriage to spend the day in the country, They drove northerly on Sixteenth street and reached street just as an electric car came bowling along. By some miscalculation of distance on the part of Mr. Towle and the motor-man the car and carriage met in the middle of the street. There was a crash, and one of the rear wheels of the carriage collapsed and its occupants were thrown out. The horses were seized in time to prevent a runaway, and fortunately none of Mr.

Towle's family were seriously injured. Some were badly bruised, but this did not spoil their outing, for another carriage was procured and they resumed their ride to the country. FOURTH OF JULY.

About forty persons, one-fifth of whom had the appearance of men, occupied the seats in the center of the Assembly Chamber yesterday afternoon, when the convention of the State Woman Suffrage Association was called to order by Miss Mills of New York, and quite a number of spectators occupied seats round the sides. After the singing of a suffrage hymn, an invocation was delivered by Rev. Shook, in which he prayed that all the men might vote to lift the women out of their present bondage. The first paper was on the subject "Why We Need the Ballot," and was read by Miss Naomi Anderson, the colored suffrage evangelist. She said she spoke in behalf of the daughters of America who have been compelled to kiss the dust and drink the dregs of womanhood.

They had been defrauded of their birthright, the proud name of Ethiopia. She depicted the sufferings of the women in the days of slavery, when their children were sold away from them. Those days were over, but these daughters of America to-day want the ballot because it 13 power, and will give them social equality. She said that as they were begotten in the days of Democratic rule, the Democrats must be their fathers. Then came the Republicans, who, from a sense of policy and justice, gave them the ballot, and they must be their foster-fathers.

Next came the Populists, and as they were a hybrid mixture of the other two, they must be the halfbrothers and sisters of these daughters who are asking the ballot. Miss Mills gave an outline of the campaign that is being pursued by the suffragists. Most of those who are going from place to place, speaking for the cause, are from other States, Miss Susan B. Anthony being foremost among them, as she has been for many years. She is very anxious to see the movement succeed in this State.

It is very necessary, however, to have funds with hlch to send out canvassers into the country. The speaker made an earnest appeal to the audience for pledges of money with which to carry on the campaign, and after considerable talking secured two $5 pledges from Mrs. Purnell and Mrs. Domingos. After long pleading for similar subscriptions, she descended to asking for a $2 pledge, but even then, with the promise of a photograph of Mise Anthony and Miss Shaw, she only secured one pledge for that amount.

Mrs. Purnell then took up the appeal and succeeded in getting another pledge. This seemed to be the limit of the number of women present who thought the priceless boon of suffrage worth $2 to them, and canvassers went through the audience with no better Buccess. Mrs. Morrow of Oak Park next read a paper on "Does the Wife and Mother Require the Ballot?" She said that it seemed almost absurd to ask the question, or for her to speak upon It.

The woman has the home and desires to guard it from contamination. The chief interest of the wife and mother is the home, and legislation touches It at every point. She had been talked to about woman's iniluence, but one vote was worth all the influence woman has. One of the greatest hindrances to the caus.e is the indifference or opposition of so many women, who say that they do not want to vote. Home and heaven are not so far separated as many people seem to think.

Nextt came a paper by J. H. Liggett on "Does the State Need the Woman's Ballot?" He said it was the assertion of the opponents of female suffrage that the great majority of women do not wish to vdte. Leaving this aside, there artmany great questions affecting the welfare of the State, that will never be properly settled by the vote of the ignorant and uneducated. Where would a higher or better educated mass of voters be found than among the women of their homes? He believed that female suffrage would shift the balance of power from the single men to the married ones, and make the home the dominant factor In politics.

He thought it would benefit the State to extend the suffrage to its intelligent women and thought the action of the recent Stalte Conventions would bring it about. Miss Anna Shaw of Philadelphia then took the speaker's desk to answer questons from the box, and explained that there was no disrospeet intended toward Decoration Day, and that she thought the day could not be better celebrated than by asking those who fought for the flag and their descendants to aid in lifting up those who are In bondage. She believed her father, who was a soldier, would rather see her engaged in thi9 work than any Other. Women who cannot vote are in the deepest kind of bondage. There Is a great difference between having the right to vote or not.

Woman's suffrage will elevate man and will not degrade woman. Woman's suffrage should be urged only upon the ground of Justice, but men offer only sentimental reasons for opposing It. She did not believe one woman in ten 1s competent to marry and raise a family, and not one man in a hundred is. There have been entirely too many marriages. The papers of the State are reeking with the records of marriage scandals that are a disgrace to California.

She did not think that women, when they vote, will ever be so partisan as men. It is nonsense to bring partisanship into city government. All civilization proves the higher the privileges accorded to women the higher the civilization. "Women's votes in Wyoming have brought about temperance reforms. Women of higher intelligence are the ones who ask for suffrage, and the bad women have never asked for it.

The ballot cannot make a woman unwomanly, and men will respect them 100 per cent, more when they vote than now. Women should wish to vote because they are human, because It will benefit them and the State. She had never seen so much Interest expressed on this subject as In this State. Most of the papers in the State who are opposed to it are fair and courteous, but their arguments are silly and sentimental. No other State has so large a proportion of intelligent women, so many having bt en tear hers.

Altr MStb 3 BbsST jn n'Me speaker, her -talk was much more In the Hne of assertion than of argument. A recess was then taken until 8 p. m. EVENING SESSION. The evening session was opened by singing, wihloh was followed by an invocation by Rev.

H. M. Hoyt. H. Wednatock was the first speaker, and said he had been asked to perform the superfluous duty of introducing Miss Anna Shaw, who was well known here by reputation.

There were many, he said, who doubted the expediency of granting the ballot to women, but no one, he thought, could deny Its abstract Justice. He was one of those who gravely doubted its expediency, while he conceded Its abstract justice. He would introduce Miss Shaw, and bespeak for her a cordial welcome. Miss Shaw, who is one of the speakers who have come from the East to tell the benighted women of California into what a deplorable state of bondage they have sunk, said she as glad that Mr. Weinstock haid granted the justice of her cause, for Wendell Phillips had said that whatever was right was expedient, and therefore this must be expedient.

She claimed that the extension of suffrage had always been a benefit to the country. If Queen Victoria could become one of the foremost rulers of the world, why should not California women wield the ballot intelligently. Our fathers had the idea that a man's right to vote should be gauged by the property he owned rather than what he was. It took a long time to convince them differently, and It takes as long now to convince men that women should vote. The right of suffrage has been by the Republican party extended tc the negroes of the South, uneducated and ignorant as they were, and the Republican party of this State, three weeks ago, pronounced in favor of women suffrage.

The claim of expediency is only theory. She repudiated the charge that the good women of Wyoming did not vote and that the bad ones did, and said the contrary was the fact. No one can tell how many women in California will vote until they have a chance. In Wyoming and Colorado nearly all the women vote. She grew sarcastic over the arguments In opposition to woman suffrage, and said the candidates would take care of the babies while their mothers voted.

There are just as many women opposed to it as there are men, she to justice being done to women. She did not believe that men would lose their courtesy toward women if they voted. She told some good stories and put her audience in a good humor and made them applaud. Then she called attention to the fact that all over the country the flags had been at halfmast for men to-day, but nothing was heard of the women who had served their country in the hospital and field. She indignantly denied the statement published in a San Francisco paper that Miss Anthony and other women had taken too muoh wine at a banquet in that city, and said Miss Anthony had never tasted a drop of wine in her life, nor did she or the other women there on that occasion.

Concluding, she said that some of the opponents of woman suffrage based their objections on prejudice and the others based theirs on pure cussednesa, and neither had a leg to stand on. Resolutions were presented by Mrs. Purnell thanking Secretary of State Brown, Janitor Govan and State Gardener Dunn for favors received, as well as others who had contributed to the comfort and convenience of the convention, which were adopted, and the convention adjourned. CONVENTION NOTES. It has been evident all through the convention that many of those who sat in the body of the chamber were not in accord with the movement or were ait least very lukewarm, as only a limited amount of applause greeted the speakers, even when they made their happiest hits, and that was almost entirely from the front row or two, where the pronounced suffragists sat, and of these, several were meek looking men who appeared to be accompanied by their wives.

In the afternoon a lady who sat in that part of the house, but evidently did not indorse the remarks of the speakers, said: "Weli, Bf the amendment carries I hope the first law passed will be one making it a misdemeanor for a man to tip his hat to a woman or offer her a seat in a car. lam sick of this sort of nonsense," and several women sitting near agreed with her. A number of those In the body of the chamber openly avowed their opposition to the movement and their contentment with the present state of affairs. STATE TOURNAMENT. Biuerock Shooting at Teams.

The great State biuerock shooting tournament commenced at Stockton yesterday and will continue to-day. Sacramento is represented by two teams. The Capital City Club's team is composed of F. M. Newbert, L.

S. Upson, S. C. Yoerk, Hal Stevens, Frank Ruhstaller, and E. Nicolaus.

Dr. E. C. Deuel is manager of the team. The Spoonbill Club's team did not participate in yesterday's matches, but will shoot to-day.

The team is composed of John Fitzgerald, W'llllam H. Eckhardt, Adam Damm, J. Steigler, George Chapman, J. Soule and Stelling. HIS HEAD GASHED.

Painful Accident to a Man From the Country. Yesterday morning a rancher's team hitched to a heavy wagon ran away on street, between Fifth and Sixth, throwing the driver to the ground. His head struck a cobble, a several inches in length being the result, and he was rendered insensible for several minutes. By the time he regained consciousness his team had been captured and returned, and. without even giving his name, he clambered back Into his wagon and drove rapidly toward the outskirts of the city.

Extending Its Lines. The Sunset Telephone and Telegraph Company has now nearly completed Its four high-grade copper circuits to connect the "mother lode" mining region with the telephone system of the Slate. The Auburn and Placerville line la completed, and also that to Angels Camp. The lines now under way will touch all the mining towns from Maintop and Damascus on the north to Chinese Camp on the south. This is welcome news to all business men.

The Boys Were on Deck. The ilag over the Sacramento Grammar School was the only one that was not lowered at half-mast yesterday morning. Many people noticed it, but nothing was done until some of the Boys' Signal Corps saw the state of affairs, and they at once hunted up the person who had charge of the building and obtained permission to lower it, which they did juet bcforp the parade.
