STEEL ARTILLERY WHEELS FOR CARS FITTED WITH FOUR WHEEL BRAKES.

Tests on the bumping rig and on the road shew these wheels to be satisfactory and are porposing to send round standardisation sheets.

As Sales have asked to have an opportunity of seeing these wheels before they are adopted, we propose sending a car fitted with them to London on Friday. The car will arrive at Conduit Street about midday.
