forward end with an escapement device constructed as illustrated in Fig. VII, operating across the face of the feeder J by the up and down stroke of the bar 1, allowing the tack f, to be caught by the advanced prong Z, (see dotted lines in Fig. VII) the tack being meanwhile held by the-prong Z until the escapement has advanced to .theposition shown by dotted lines, which position'is attained as the hammer is brought to the position illustrated in solid lines in. Fig. IV, thus allowing the tack or nail to be in position as illustrated in dotted lines in Fig. IV, and at the lower end of Fig. V and VII, so that the hammer F, will catch it, or attract it and pull it out of the feeder, and retain it in position on the face of the" hammer, until it is hammered into the basket fabric. The upper end of the rod 1, is tapered as indicated in Fig. VII, and thus' the escape L is operated. j I

In forming the feeder the stationary partv J is secured to the standards C, C by-suitable brackets, such as b and the-upperportion of the feeder'is made detachable for. the purpose of allowing it to be filled The manner of securing the parts: together is illustrated more clearly in Fig. VI. The part J is provided with an over-lapping lip y' which rests upon the upper face of they part J. The guide piece 5' being, rovided: to enter the slot in the feeder piece 8', keeping the parts in proper relation to each The feeder is provided with-.a':top. guard piece made removable, which maybe used to prevent the tacks from. flying out of the feeder, but is not absolutely essentiaL. This top guard is shown at N, N, more' clearly in Figs. V, and VI, inthe drawings being made separable at thejoint where the of the pivoted lever B.

feeder is separated in the manner illustrated in Figs. V, and VI.

The mechanism described for-actuating, the hammer on the bottom of the basket is duplicated but in reverse position for op-- erating upon the top of the basket-.- In the accompanying drawings I have used similar letters for marking these parts. .'This companion mechanism is actuated by the leqver T.

In order to properly secure the bottom P of the basket in position, the free end of the mold is provided with points 72, p, preferably four in number, two only being shown -in Fig. IV. These points 72, p, project from the mold, from to of an inch, more-or less, and as the bottom P is broughtagainst the mold by the, hand, the gage R is brought up against the lower end of the mold by means of the treadle T (see Fig. I).

In Fig. I the treadle is shown by means of dotted lines, to be secured to the upper end The dotted lines is showndropped. 'In Fig. IIit is shown ,inpositionto sustain and gage the bottom I. -;After..th'e bottom P- has been properly igaged against: the mold K,.the ball 10 is igrasped and the plunger arm P is brought gforward againstthebottom P, with some force,wbeing aided by means of the ball p iat its free endg-t-he arm I? being guidedin the.standard:1C" -in a suitable manner, so gasto'slide-backward and forward. When Zthe plunger arm P is brought forward against the bottom P it is locked in position iby the catch P, which in turn may be depressed by. the 'treadleT through the rod t, gitbeing heldain position ;by the expansion of the spring tfy-Thecatch P engages iafpin, .as illustrated, on the arm P The arm.P at the point where it engages the ibottomj P is provided; with an anti-friction bearing or;"roller, allowing the mold with the basket fabric contained thereon to move arr-any. direction .to be operated upon by the {:hammer,e-thismbeing'Eaccomplished by the Eo'perationiiofmtheihandles 7c, of said mold.

g .In describing the operation of one of the hammers I have described the operation of gboth,-both.in their action on the fabric of the basket; and. their relative constructions, iand also their connection with the fastener gfeeder andi'inasmuch as the hammers areimagnetic hammers, and furthermore inasimuch asiitis notdesired that said hammers Eshould-come against the feeder J with any appreciable force, I have provided cushions fr,--(see.Fig.-IV)-' at the upper end of the brackets b thus when the arm D is returned to. the; position shown in dotted lines in @Fig. IV, by the action of the spring S, the farm will strike the cushion 7* just before it Ereaches-theportion 7' of the feeder J; and {in-addition to this cushion a", I have proivided a small spring 8 secured to the arm h td-which the flexible connection g is atgtached.,-,The cam; G is also so formed for the purpose of procuring the best effect of the fiexibleconnection on the hammer, the greatest leverage being obtainable upon the start ofthe arm, D in either direction.-

It will be seen from the above that I have provided=arbasket machine which is simple botlr=inwconstruction and operation, and one which cani be easily operated, adjusted and keptri-n; order r'bythe ordinary person, not

necessitating the employment of skilled "T laborw I have-"also 1 provided a machine in which the tacking or nailing is automaticallya accomplished as'is also the feeding of theifast'enersto the hammers.- I v '10 In'v settingifortlr this invention I have ]L Irr:aibasket-making machine, the combination 'of a magnetic hammer, a spindle,
