MORE ABOUT THE CURVE PROBLEM.
A Protest Against the Alleged Inattention
of the Police.
KECES51TI FOE A NEW GRETXA GEEEN
The Curve Problem Again.
To the Editor of The Dispatch:
That the curve problem is a theme highly
interesting to engineers and mechanics is
very true. AYe cannot see, however, that
"Locomotive Engineer" lias thrown any
light on the subject. We are more in har
mony with your Saturday's correspondent.
A curve, wc presume, to be a portion of a
circle, as commonly understood in railroad
lore. And this must be the definition as
understood by "Locomotive Engineer."
Hence he uses the term, "rounding a curve."
Xcw then, if the outer circle ot a curve is
no longer than the inner circle of the same
cut ve, then the same length ot rails will en
circle the outer curve that will be sufficient
for the inner curve. Suppose we test this
on a Email scale. Take, for instance, a
wagon wheel, whose felloes are 3 inches
deep and the wheel 6 feet in diameter, and
we wish to encircle both the onter and inner
dimensions with an iron band. "We discover
tne inner diameter is only 5 leet 6 inches
because of tLe G inche deducted for
the depth of the felloes. It seems
pretty clear to us, that if the same length of
rails will encircle tbo outside curve of a rail
road that will be sufficient for the inside enrve,
that the same length of iron band that will
suffice for a o feet li inches diameter will be
equally sufficient for the outer or G feet diam
eter. And letvc hnd that figures do not bear
this out, inasmuch as the circumference of a
uiatnclcrof C feet is 18 feet 108 inches, while
the circumference or a diameter of 5 feet C
iucl.es is only lTfcet3J8 juche-, ana we can see
no wa by which ue ciu encircle a distance of
18 feet 10i inches by a band that will only bo
sufficient to reach a distance of 17 feet 10
inches.
Locomotire Engineer" may ask us how we
account for the fact that both wheels having
been securely "keyed" on the same axle, the
outer wheel keeps pace with the inner wheel,
when we have tried to show that the outer
w heel travels the greater distance. Note that
w e do not say faster. We cau see but one solu
tion of the problem. In rounding a curve the
flange of the inner wheel presses securely to
the inner side of the inner rail, and drags, or
causes the face of the outer wheel to slip or
MIdcon the fare of the outer rail. We suggest
tin Idea as a reasonable one. but we do not
offer it as a mathematical demonstration. If,
however, it is not true, we would be pleased to
learn the truth. BEN Catley.

A Document for the Police
To the tdltor of The Dispatch :
In the interest of the public safety, 1 bee
through your columns to call the attention of
the police anthoritics to the following facts:
While crossing Fourth avenue, on Smlthfield
street, this evening a wagon, with two men
upou it, coming do'vn Fourth avenue at full
tr nearly ran us down. I raised my hand to
warn the drner to slack his speed, to which he
paid dr ftttcction, nut ran right into us. The
shafts of his wagon knocked a basket out of
raj hand and scattered the contents through
the street. I stopped his horse and called
inr the police. 1 hclj onto the horse
rcarly as tar as Wood sticet. still no
policeman responded to my calL One
man jumped from the wagon and freed the
n lose lrom my grasp, w bile the others drove
off at a rapid pace. There was no name or
number upon the wagon by wbicn I could
idcutifj it. I then went to the police station,
on Diamond street, Not to disturb the court
then sitting ,1 called a policeman outside and
told lnru the circumstances, saj ing I w ould go
with him and identify the wagon and the men.
He did rot even pay the slightest attention to
what I said. After telling him I did not know
the parlies, he. in a drawling tone, asked me
"who tbej-weie,"but as I could not tell him he
retired to his onerous duties of lounging in the
police court.
I hus w?gons are permitted every hour of the
day. to dm e sh t .ugh our streets at a pace that
is in direct w-Iation of the city ordinances;
and when a citizen, who has been nearly run
over, and his property scattered through the
streets, appeals to the police, for redress, he is
confronted by a policeman actually too indo
lent to listen to what be has to complain of. Is
this as it should be? PLAIN" TALKER.
Pittsburg, October 11. 1890.
SHU Another Explanation.
To the Editor orxbe Dispatch:
None of your correspondents have yet pre
cisely described that "curve problem," but,
while not a railroader, I think I can. There
are more lineal feet in the outside than in the
inside rail, and as each wheel on one sine of a
tram is made last to an anxle which tnrns with
a w neel on the opposite side, it is impossible for
the outside wheel to describe a greater number
of resolutions than the inside wheel; jet. in
rounding a curve, the former must travel a
greater distance than the latter. This Is ac
complished by constructing the rim of each
wheels in such a manner that the inside ot the
rim is of a greater circumference than the out
fclde: and s the wheels have considerable
'plat'' between the rails on entering a curve
tbo sluie sulcwa s toward the outside rail.
Thus the outer wheel is runuiug on its inner
and larger edge and the inner wheel on its
outer or smaller edge. Thus the one wheel is
enabled to travel a greater distance than the
other and w ithout describing a greater number
of i evolutions. S,

TO ARREST RECKLESS DRIVERS.
They Must Stop "When Ordered or Pay the
Consequences.
The police department has inaugurated
warfare against drivers of vehicles who dis
regard the orders of officers stationed at
street crossings to prevent pedestrians from
being run down. The officers have been
given orders to arrest all drivers who persist
in driving through crowds of people at the
different crossings.
The first arrest under the new rule was
made yesterday when Officer Young took
into custody Bernard Digelman, driver of a
Southside butcher wagon, at the corner of
Fifth avenue and Smitbfield street. When
the officer ordered the man to stop, the latter
relused to do so and drove through the
crowd. It will cost him something this
morning for his carlessness.
