STEAM OUT OF DATE.
Edison Announces That the Days cf
Locomotives Are Nnmbcred.
ELECTRICITY EIXGS THE KNELL.
An Electric Road to Be Built Between Mil
waulee and Chicago.
TILLAKD ADOPTS TOE WIZARD'S PLAIN'
Xet York, Oct. 26. Thomas A. Edison
says the steam locomotive must go. Not ro
on rails, but it must get off the earth. He
declares his newly perfected motor electric
system will displace it. "It 'will displace
it," continned the inventor, in an oflhand
way, "if economy as well as,speed and
i-afety is a factor of locomotion, not because
it will make easily a speed of a hundred
miles an hour while steam strains itself to
make sixty, but because it will get one horse
power out ot from one to two pounds of
cheap coal, while out of six pounds of dear
coal a locomotive engine only gets that same
one horse power. It will displace it because
it is cheaper."
"When will it displace it?"
"It will begin to do it between Chicago
and Milwaukee at the "World's Fair."
"The problem of electric locomotion on
what are now called steam railroads," he
faid, "is a wonderfully simple one. The
street car problem was the poser. Any
electrician can run a train at high speed on
n steam railroad track. "Why, eleven years
ago, I ran a train at the rate of forty miles
an hour on my three-mile track at Menlo
Park by the same central system by which
I propose to run now.
WASTED TO BCX TO PITTSBURG.
"I wanted to run all the trains on the
Pennsylvania Kailroad from Jersey City to
I'iitbburg by that system, and I could have
done it then But in pioneering you have
to begin at the little end. So I went into
the electric light. And in pioneering you
ha. e to have a man with nerve to adopt
your ideas. T have found the man. He is
Henry Yillard. It is his idea to have this
system in operation between Chicago and
Milwaukee during the World's Fair. He
intends to demonstrate that there need be
no such thine as waiting for trains between
cities now considered a long distance apart.
He intends to run"a train, say of two cars
every 20 minutes. I would not be surprised
nfter that to see him introduce the svstem
over the whole of the Northern Pacific
lines, tbouch he would not be compelled to
Introduce it all at once, and throw away all
of hi locomotives. By this system elec
tricity can be gradually introduced, more
trains being sandwiched between the steam
cars as the locomotive wears out."
"How can that be done, and how will the
current-be applied?"
"I cannot go into details," replied Mr.
Mis. n, "for fear of injuring my rights on
the other side, though, bv the way, I never
made anything out of European patents,
but I will say briefly that the current will
pass from the stationary engine to a central
rail between the tracks, thence through the
mechanism attached to the bottom of the
cars or motor. A freight train, of course,
would need a motor, because of the number
of cars, although a single passenger car
could be run carrying itsown motor beneath
it thence to the wheels, and thence back
by the side rails to the power house, or
stationary engine."
''And how many of these stationary en
gines would be needed?"
IMMENSE TOWEK OF THE EXGDfES.
"Three of them, with a horse power of
10,000 or 12,000. Each would run the whole
Pennsylvania Kail road system between here
and Philadelphia."
"Freight, local, express trains and all?"
"All of them. The depreciation of roll
ing stock and roadbed is much less than un
der steam propulsion. Every exertion of
steam power is in the nature of an explosion
and when you take into consideration the
fact that 400 or 500 engines are on a road
like the Pennsylvania at one time, each ex
ercising a different degree of this explosive
power, the depreciation is a great factor.
But with electricity it is always the smooth
rotary motion imparted in the same way by
the same men at the stationary engines.'"
"Can equipment be devised which will
stand the strain of this system at full
speed?"
The Wizard smiled. "Full speed of this
system," said he. "is, or I see no reason
why it should not be, 200 miles an hour.
But as for practical purposes I feel sure
that a 100-pound rail on a track ballasted
would stand the speed of 100 miles an
hour."
"And how will your train be stopped?"
"By air brakes, the same as at present,
and that is about all the one man who
would take the place of engineer and two
firemen would have to do keep a lookout
and mind his brake."
"The system, then, will not be popular
among the Brotherhood of Locomotive En
gineers?" "Everything has opposition," replied the
"Wizard, non-committally. and then went
on. "Indicators would tell the men at the
power houses the location of every train at
every moment. There, you see, is an abso
lve block system."
MUD XOT AT AM, IK THE WAT.
Here Mr. Edisnn attacked the street car
subject with interest. "This was the
problem," he said, "I have been working
on it for two years. As I told vou before,
any electrician can get high speed. One
thing was to get low speed, to run four or
five miles an hour when necessary. And
then the grades. "Why. some street car
grades are 12 per cent With railroads the
highest is generally 2 per cent And then
the iiiud. Well, I can pick the current up
out of two inches of mud. I have done so
on my experimental track down at Orange,
but I can"tell you it took all kinds of con
trivances to do it'
"Is the system the same as that for the
railroads?"
"No, there was another difficulty. The
thing was to get a system which a man, such
as street car lines have to emplov, could
operate without knowing about it. To make
it more simple for him makes it more com
plex for us. Of course, I have the station
ary engines, but for simplicity's sake I
have abolished the central rail." The cur
rent passes along one of the side rails to the
motor and back to the stationary engine
through the other."
"How about the safety of the public with
an electric current running up and down
the oar tracks in the middle of a crowded
Mreet?"
"A pressnre," he said, "a little heavier
than the one used would make a horse lift
his feet so:" and Mr. Edison raised one of
his own feet about half an inch from the
office floor; "but the pressure I do use a
horse wouldn't feel at all, nor would a man.
You see, I employ the heavy current with
the low pressure. That is the whole secret
of safety. The principle is this, that a,
Ftream of water 100 feet wide which falls a
foot ;ici the same power as a stream one
Joot wide which falls 100 feet The
wide stream is my way, the high fall some
other people's, and the allowance of such
pressures in public 'streets, as some that
arc used, is like letting a man place a boiler
in a vault under a street and put on 1,000
pounds of steam if he wants to.
Electricity has developed too fast, you see,
for the law to keep up with it The whole
question is one of expense. A low pressure
trolley wire, for instance, requires four
timcs'as much copper as a high pressure
one "
THE CHEAPEST SYSTEM KNOWX.
"Will the street car plant be expensive?"
"The system will be the cheapest known.
The plant will not cost half as much as the
cable, and there will be no tearing up of
the street Why, nnder pressure I could
lay a mile of track on this system ina night
I think," said the Wizard, growing almost
enthusiastic, "that I have really solved the
great street-car problem. It is cheap,
"swift, and safe. In smaller cities one of
its great advantages will be to, doable the
traffic. The men who are now accustomed
to lunch near their places of business will
go home to their midday meals."
"And when will the system be put in
operation."
Mr. Villard is attending to that. He
will soon have a track for demonstration
ready in the vicinity of New York."
DEATHS HEBE AND ELSEWHERE.
Colonel Benjamin C. Tancey.
Colonel Benjamin C Yancey, who died
Saturday in Floyd county, Ga., was a South
Carolinian by birth and a brother of the
famous William L. Yancey. He represented
his native State in the Legislature, was
president of the Alabama State Senate and
was a member of tbo Georgia General As
sembly. In 1837 President Buchanan ap
pointed him Minister to tho Argentine Ite
public. Upon his return he lived for some
time in Atlanta. The office of Minister to
the French court was offered him by Presi
dent Buchanan, but was declined. Colonel
Yancey commanded a regiment of cavalry
In Hampton's legion durins the war. AVith
the return of peace lie devoted himself to
the agricultural interests of liii section. For
several jears ho was president of the
Georgia Mate Agricultural Society, director
or the Atlanta and West Point road, trustee
of the State University, and was president
and director of various large business enter
prises. In many respects lie resembled his
brother. Senator Yancey, and it is more than
likely that lie would have been still more
promoted in public life if lie had made his
home in one State and in one locality. As it
was, three S tates claimed him and called him
into their council?.
