Orme Evans advise us that they despatched yesterday the radiator with the old type centre, but fitted with side plates especially well attached to the bottom tank. Immediately this comes in, we wish Mr. Haidenby to run it on the bumping rig, and to report as to its length of life to Mr. Royce. The method of treatment of this side plate may possibly be applied to the radiators on the road, if the results are good.
