Here is a description of the motor as wo find it in the N. T. limes : "The motor proper consisted of a heavy outside covering of metal shaped to deceive the spectator in every way he may look at it. The outside looks, as if the machine consisted of a large massive . iron cylinder with valves, wheels, and outside pipes. These are supposed to assist in the act of generating the famous new force, when in fact thi outside shape has little to do with the working parts. Those parts are on the inside. The force is, pure and simple, air, the least bit tainted with a chemical to de ceive, as everything else is made to do. The air is pumped from 7 to fet steel tuba on the inside of the shell. The tubs are of sufficient strength to-withstand a pressure of from 10 to 30,000 pounds. There is mechanism inside, the shell that permits the compressed air to pass from one chamber or cylinder at a time into a distinct and separate cylinder which, contains the pis ton that operates the fly-wheel of the ma chined By this method the machine m be kept running five minutes or perhaps longer, and yet show very- little change on the pressure gauge."
