Chicago, in the county'of Cook and State Illinois, have invented a certain new useful Improvement in Draft-Yokes Railwayfier Draft-Rigging, of which the following is a full, clear, concise, and exactdscription, reference being had to the so coinpanying drawings; forging a part of this specification,

"My invention relates ,tofiifiproyements in draft yoke-s for railway car draft l'iggin and more particularly to. means pro ided in a draft yoke itor forwardly extending a standard freight cnr drew, her.

In the drawings fori iing a part of this specification Figure l is a side elevation partly in vertical l0 tudinnl section on line ll of 2 of a draftrigsring enibodying my invention, Fig. 2 1s n 1311131 YleW partly in horizontal section on line 2-2 of Fig. 1. In Figs. 1 and 2 the ports are in hoe nml position. Fig. Sis a. plan ifiew oaitly in longitudinal section on line l-i of Fig. 2 showing'the parts in the position assumed in extreme rearward movement of the drew her. Fig. i is a perspective View of 1' y in.- proved yoke heed. Fig. 5 is n perspective VlQW of the filler block.

The said member is provided back of said draw her opening with a iurther opening 27 co iguous with the opening 25, which openin; F? isfedapted to receive the preferably re; nguLir filler block 28, which slidingly engages therein, and is adapted to contact with the drew bar at its forward end and of the draft yoke at its other end.
