came to his celt in making the rounds
of the jail. Not finding him there he
started a search for him and when he
could not be located in the Jail, after
locking all tho other prisoners in sepa
rate cells, he started out to look for

ELECTBIOAIi DEVELOPMENT.
Somo Data Supplied by the General
Electric Company.
W. K. Curtis, In the Chicago Hceoi.l.
The General Electric pcoale tell me
that In 1S93, when they commenced to
manufacture machinery for transmit
ting power, their business amounted
to less than $120,000 for the year.where
as for the present year up to date
their contracts exceed 86,000,000. In
1883 C. A. Coffin, who was engaged In
the shoe business at Lynn, Mass.,
agreed to rent desk room In his ofilcc
ana give his time for a part of two
days in the week looking after tho in
terests of Messrs. Thomson and Hous
ton, two school teachers from Phila
delphia, who had Invented an arc light.
Now Mr. Coffin is at the head of a
company employing 14,000 men. The
first application of electrical power for
manufacturing purposes was at the old
Baltic mills In Rhode Island. They
were formerly owned by Governor
Sprague, and were abandoned because
they were Inaccessible. Somebody sug
gested putting in electrical power, and
a wire was stretched from a dnm five
miles away. That was tho first ex
periment In transmitting power nlong
a wire, and It was so successful that no
alterations have ever been made, and
the total cost of repairs has been less
than $300.
The largest electrical plant in the
world runs the surface street cars In
New York city. It can develop 60,000
horse-power, and Is divided Into units
of 5,000 horse-power each. The Niag
ara Falls plants combined now equal
nearly 100,000 horse-power, and when
the present Improvements are complete
will exceed 123,000 horse-power. A
company is being organized by General
George S. Field, of Buffalo, to take up
the power on the Canadian side, nnd if
the plans are carried out it will be a
larger and more comprehensive devel
opment than that on the American side.
The problem of transmitting power
Is being gradually solved. It involves
simply a commercial question. The
power of Niagara river can be trans
mitted over a wire to New York with
out difficulty, although in the present
stage of development of electrical sci
ence it would be more expensive than
steam. The power of 5,000 horses can
be transmitted fifty miles over three
copper wires the size of a lead pencil
and compete with any other form of
motive power. As the distance in
creases the expense increases very rap
idly beond that distance until it be
comes greater than Is required to pro
duce the same amount of power from
coal. The higher the price of coal
as in Arizona and California the far
ther electricity can be carried with
economy. At Fresno, Cal., nnd at tho
Tellurldc mines at Provo, Utah, elec
tricity is carried fifty-five miles; at
Kalamazoo, forty-six miles; nt Tnco
ma, Wash., forty-five miles.
Electricity was used for mining very
early in its development, and one of tho
first plants was set up at Santa Ro
salia, near Chihuahua, Mexico. Elec
tricity is used extensively In tho gold
fields of South Africa and Australia
and in tho diamond fields of Brazil.
The first coal operations by electricity
were at Counelton, P.i., and tho Davis
Coke and Coal company, of AVest A'lr
ginla, in which Senator Elklns Is In
terested, was tho second to adopt It
for motive power.
