The Chicago Tribune says: Oh
will have the finest mail distributing
system in the world. Think of mail
coursing through subterranean e-
ways at the rate of a mile a minutei
Yet that is what Postmaster fleeing.
Superintendent John A. Montgomery,
and Electrician Richard
declare to be a demonstrated reality.
Nothing like it exists in the world. and
without doubt Chicago will be the first
citylto give the new scheme a practical
trio. '
Last fall John A. Montgomery. Su-
perintendent of Mails, made it trip to
Philadelphia to investigate the pneu-
matic tube mail service in that city.
Upon his return he said to Electrician
R. E. Sherman:
"Sherman. why can't you invent on
eunderground apparatus which will car-
ry all our mails? Maybe you don't
know it. but we handle from 275 to 800
tons of mail it day. Why not get up an
underground electrics] our system by
which all this stufi can be transmitted
from the substations to the control of-
lies and thence to the depots?"
That was enough. Shot-m m caught
the idea. retarded to his lalxirntory. and
soon perfected the system. The details
were forwarded to Washington and n
patentsccured June 27. An ordinance
was introduced in tho City Council
granting to Sherman, his successors or
assigns. permission and authority to op-
erate electrical tubes and electrical
conduits. with all suitable switches.
branches. turnouts. contractions and
stations along. under. and upon any of
the streets. alleys. avenues. tunnels.
viaducts. and under the Chicago River
and its various branches for the pur-
pose of collecting. receiving. conveying.
carrying and transmitting United States
mail packages and, all other suitable
commodities. The ordinance further
provides thnt the construction work
shall be under the direction of the Com-
missioner of Public Works. and that a
deposit of 810.000 shall be made. Pro-
vision is also made that. in the ifUllel'llC~
tion of tho system it sum not loss than
$50,000 shall be expended the first three
years. The company is also to pay into
the city treasury 30 por cont. pornnnum
of the gross receipts.
“The system will cost, $300,000." sold
Electrician Sliormnn. "i'onduits will
be run from the postoflit'e to all the only
stations. dcwts and muvapntmr ofiices.
Those conduits will have to go below
the cnblos and gas pipes~~qrrolmbly from
eight to twelve feet below the surface.
Steel motor cars weighing about. 170
pounds each will be run between 'T'
rails. nnd will carry from .30 to iUU
pounds.
"Both the speed and distance can be
regulated by dial. The maximum speed
is over n mile a minute. Four trailers
can be attached to such cur. When the
car npprtmobos within one foot of its
destination is bell is sounds-d ut the re-
ceiving ofiiCe nnd rings until the mail is
removed.
“The underground systmn of mail
transmission has thcndvnntngo over the
midnir system in that mils can be used
instead of wires. thus permitting of
heavier burdens. and tin-n- it. porfect

It iasomewhat singular that in an age
whenithe demand for solid facts and

should be such a market for books which
are known to be based on the author's

in the statement that the most telling

fictitious narrative; o well designed and
odroitly planned novel. teething with
