SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 744,285, dated November 17, 1903.
Application filed April 29, 1903- Serial No. 154,785. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I,RIOHARD BLACK, a citizen of the United States, residing at Canonsburg, in the county of Washington and State of Pennsylvania,have invented a new and useful Improvement in Metallic Railway-Ties, of which improvement the following is a specification.

After the rails have become firmly seated in the recesses or chairs provided for them the ties may then be moved in such a manner as to bring the brace portions C and D firmly in contact with the web and base of the rail, and when properly adjusted the ties may be permanently embedded in the road-bed, and a firm and rigid track will be had without the use of nuts, bolts, or fish-plates.
The cut-out portion (1 at one end of the tie is for the admission of the rail to the chair (1.
Having thus fully shown and described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to
