Editor's Notes
Blanks- We are experiencing no little difficulty with the dark grams, the majority of them being reamed inside at a different taper to the cylinder of [our] main shaft. I can not of course say if this is due to your reamer of the after effects of contraction or expansion, at all events it is certain they do not for the cylinders of our machines, the smaller end generally binding first.##Battery - I am setting up four cell battery in accordance to later directions for same shape to get better result than before.##Shipment recd.Oct 2: by Express##In this lot five glass battery jars arrived broken likewise five express pates. This depletes us of our entire battery. Do you not make it a practice to send any extras in a shipment of this size? (15 batteries)
