Difficulties First Makers Met in This Country Steel Manufacturers in France More Willing to Make Tests of Material Change in Conditions Here in Last Few Years Foreign Cars No Better than Those Built Here. In the early days of the automobile industry In the United Stales little or nothing was known of the properties required In the materials of construc tion: For example: Aluminum was a novelty, cast-iron and bronze were used for the gearwheels of the speed change mechanism; roller-bearings having un burdened rolls operated lu soft axle tubes as a bearing for soft Bteol solid axles; bronze and niaJIeablo Iron were used for connecting-rods; the harden ing and grinding' crankshafts and many other parts wore unknown; brakes were lined with wood blocks; any yel low metal for beaHngB was "bronzo," rogardless of Its composition; harden ing meant "case-hardening," sometimes .001 Inch deep, sometimes more, but always an indefinite amount. Heat treatment, alloy steels, and hardening as we know them today, were practically unknown. Structural steel, bar, plate, and rod stock; woods of various kinds, cast Iron, brass, and bronze of the ordinary "merchant" shapes and qualities were alone avail able for the automobile builder. In Europe, on tho other hand, the re quirements of foreign gunmnkers, en gine builders, and others had created a demand for special steels and bronzes. From the beginning of Hie automobile Industry in France tho machines wore entered In races and other competitions that doveloped In a few hours weaknesses and shortcom ings of design In materials that would have taken months of ordinary use. Finding that Increasing the size alone of a weak part to mnke It strong enough was not always the remedy, or even always feasible, the manu facturers naturally turned to the Bteol makers for bettor materials. Right here another difference be tween the United Slates and Europe should be noted. In the United States the steel makers wanted "tonnage." That is, they would not get out a spec ial grade of metal and set up the rolls to shape It unless an order for many thousands of tons was placed. Whereas, In Europo, the steel mills would take an order for a few hundred pounds of steel of special composition. The net. result was that the French automobile builders, by races that test ed the materials and design of con struction, by tho facility and possibil ity of procuring proper materials, by cleverness In design and by keen com petition, soon distanced all other na tions in the production of cars that were reliable, fast, and dependable. A concrete example of tho above Is furnished by the actual experience of one of the early American manufactur ers, who conceived tho Idea of building in this country an exact copy of a well known and successful French car. After the first car was built the testing out proved that the American tubing ued in the frame had only about one half the strength and stiffness of the tubing used In the model. The gears would not stand up under the work, and the wearing qualities and general durability of the entire machine were far below the French model. A care ful investigation showed that the dif ference was solely due to the quality of the materials used. As at that time practically no one here who was avail able knew the difference between the materials in the model and the copy end itfhere were not procurable in thU country materials from a constructive and commercial point Of view that would answer the purpose, the manu facture of the car was discontinued. Conditions In the American engineer ing talent and' material market have In the last three or four years completely changed. We now know what material to.use in each particular place, how to use it, where to get it, and why we use It It is, moreover, a fact that the re verse of the above mentioned case has happened. An American manufacturer in 1S99 and 1900 produced a number of eight horsepower cars, with single cylinder, vertical in front engine. The owner of one of these cars appeared within the past two months at a New York salesroom and stated that he still used his original little eight horse-power American car, and that the bearings and all of the pairts had stood up won derfully well. This car must have had excellent materials and admirable de sign. As a matter of fact one of the largest manufacturers in Germany ac quired in 1898 exclusive rights to man ufecture this same car of American de sign, and on American specifications for material. All the detailed drawings were converted into the metric system and sent to Europe with a model and some parts. The car, though well known and successful in the United States was not satisfactory when made by the German maker with European material. The American industry has grown to such proportions that steel and other material manufacturers seek and cater to the wants of the automobile builder. At the present time there is not, and in fact for gome time past there has not been, the difference be tween the foreign and the domestic car that formerly existed. If the Am erican engineer is not satisfied with American materials, all kinds and grades of foreign materials can now be produced In stock In the American market, and at prices commercially practicable. The only possible reason for the pur chase of a'foreign car In this country today is the same one that leads many people to buy English clothes and French hair dyes. There Is an idea prevalent in some quarters that prac tically all the cars mode iw France, England, Italy, Germany, and Belgium are as good or better than tho better grades of cars made in this country, whereas tho reverse Is really the truth. Some of the foreign cars that have had a large wile and vogue in this country uud been accepted without question as being of the highest grade were classed as second grade at home. Taking the good and the bad togeth er, the average quality is higher In this country today than in Europe. It Is true that there are more builders of high grade finely finished cars In Europe than in this country. But their combined output Is not as great as the combined output of the relatively few similar makers here. On the other hand, there are practically no cars built hero as "rotten" as some ot the foreign ones. New York Post QUAINT AND CURIOUS.

In New York nearly all the tall of fice buildings have their foundations on the quicksand. In It, or under it, and as a rule they are more difficult, dangerous and costly to build than anywhere else in the world. It Is required to provide absolutely safe separate supports of from 50 to 100 columns, 15 or 20 feet apart, each carrying loads of from 100 to 2,000 tons. Thirty foot below the surface the snnd Is found, compressed to a hnrd, dense mass which, undisturbed, will carry safely a load of 0,000 or 8,000 pounds a square foot. When, therefore, the building Is not too heavy, aud there Is no expectation of deeper foundations being built along side, tho new foundations nre often laid on the surface of the snnd, which hns from one-half to the wholo of Its area covered with them.
