THE SCRANTON TRIBUNE-WEDNESDAY, JUNE 18, 1902.
INDUSTRIAL
AND LABOR
POSSIBLE SOURCE OF FUTURE
POWER IN THE WORLD.
Water May Be Made to Take the
Place of Conl, Oil, EtcMethod
That Is Now Used In California
for Securing rower E. L. Fuller,
of This City, Elected a Director of
the Combined West Virginia Cen
tral and Western Maryland D., L.
& W. Board for Today.
Not many hundred years honcn nil
thp wood will bo burned, the conl mines
exhausted and the oil supply rIvc out.
The present enormous consumption will
Increase rather than decrease, nnd
when the world runs out of fuel, what
Is It Rolns to do for powcr7 This may
he the vital question of the future. At
this moment electricity appears to bo
the only resource, and as that ran bo
had from water, It will be a question
of transmission only.whlch has ulreudy,
to a great extent, been solved.
Niagara Falls now Iras the lamest
electrical transmission plarCt In the
country. Next to this Is the plant to
be developed In Plumas county, Cal.,
on the north fork of the Feather river.
Home Interesting details are given. Two
valleys arc to be converted Into reser
voirs, or lakes, which will cover 10,000
neies, and will furnish water sufficient
to generate S00.000 horse-power by the
plan to be pursued which Is to convey
the water thiough a ten-mllc canal to
a point where It will have the enor
mous fall of 1.G00 feel. Referring to
tills project, a contemporary explains
that the primary purpose of the pro
moters of the enterprise seems to be
the generation of electric power for
ticinsinisMon to San Francisco for use
In manufacturing. The distance cor
ned by the transmission lines when the
project Is carried out will aggregate 250
miles. There arc already two electric
power plants utilizing Slerran water
ources occupying the field, and It is
not improbable that the new electric
power plants opened on the headwaters
of the Sacramento river will extend
their transmission lines to San Fran
cisco bay also.
Of course Texas Is In oil at present,
and it is hardly in order to worry over
dlfllculties which may fall to us far In
tile future when our unrivaled spouters
have ceased to spout, and when wood,
coal and oil go too high in price for
use as common fuel hut it cannot be
out of order to icgard the enterprise
of Calil'ornians, who are thus prepar
ing to introduce over a line 250 miles
long a power picked up, as it were, in
the mountains. Far in the future, un
less some new means of generating
power is devised, we may all have to
lesort Id the California method of
making the world move.
Fuller Will Be a Director.
Either Joseph Ramsey, Jr., president
of the Wabash, or F. S3, Landstreet,
will, it is said by a member of the
(fijuId-Fullcr syndicate, be the presi
dent of the combined West Virginia
Central nnd Western Maryland rail
roads, the eastern extension of the
Gould lines. If the two lines be not
merged Mr. Ramsey or JiSr. Landstreet
will be president of the Western Mary
land. The name of the company will
not be changed at present.
About the first of July the Baltimore
city directors in the company will re
tlie. Their places will be filled by tho
following, who will be named by the
t-yi.dlcntc: George R. Gnithcr, General
John M. Hood, for many years presi
dent of the Western Maryland railroad;
K. Davies Warllelrl, piesident of the
Continental Trust company K. L. Ful
ler, Colonel Myron T. Ilerrick, F. H.
Laudstruet, Winslow S. Pierce and
Howard or George Gould.
England. Both houses of parliament
have taken a great Interest In our un
dertaking, and references to what we
have accomplished are frequently mado
In their reports upon things Industrial.
The London Council appointed a com
mission of three to visit the Westlng
hoiiso works to see how we accomplish
ed so much In such a limited time. Tho
masters there simply do not understand
how to handle men.
"1 arrived In London April 5, IflOl, to
tnke charge of the construction of tho
Wcstlnghouse plnnt. A former con
tractor had been working on the build
ings, but had accomplished practically
nothing. The Westlnghouse company
was In a dilemma. Tho plant had to bo
completed within the year, and tho
Rrltlsh contractors were almost unani
mous In their declarations that tho
work required could 'not be finished In
side of flvV years. Under such dis
couraging conditions our firm assumed
control. I found 236 men employed. In
four weeks I had Increased tho force
to 2,300 men, and kept Increasing It un
til I hnd 4,500 men going. The finishing
touches were placed upon the buildings,
as per contract, on December ill, Thus
we hnd built tho entire works In nine
months,"
Tho English plnnt consists of numer
ous buildings. The company has a site
of 130 acres, and at present fifty-five
acres are Inclosed within walls. It Is
stated that 11,000.000 bricks have been
used In the buildings, 13,500 tons o
steel, 10,000,000 cubic feet of lumber nnd
other materials In proportion, The
plant operates u large system of rail
roads, and the new buildings were nec
essary to change the motive power from
steam to electricity. This change ne
cessitated a complete new equipment,
now being Installed. To Illustrate the
rapidity with which work was carried
on under American supervision, Mr.
Stewart states that the stack of tho
great power house, thirteen feet in di
ameter and 230 feet high, was completed
In fifty-five working days. Meanwhile
work everywhere else was pushed with
tho utmost celerity.
This is a Famplc, but a fair one, of
what Americans are capable of doing,
and It explains our Industrial suprem
acy. American Ingenuity and energy
arc nlways equal to the occasion, even
when face to faco with what others de
clare to be Impossible. This Is why
Americans win.
"OLD GLORY."
THE MARKETS
Wall Street Review.
New York, June 17. Yesterday's volume
of activity In stocks was uboat mnln

WHY AMERICANS WIN.
One of the Open Secrets of the Suc
cessful Yankee Invasion.
From the Troy Times. '
J. C. Stewart, tho representative of a
contracting firm which constructed tho
Bicat works of The British Westing
house Electric and Manufacturing com
pany at Trafford Park, Manchester,
Ihigland, In nine months, after English
builders had deulared It would take sev
eral years to complete tho undertaking,
is now on a brief visit to this country.
In a llttlo talk about his experiences in
England he throws some further light
011 the "American invasion" and helps
to explain why American enterprise
makes headway abroad:
"Our feat of completing $7,500,000
worth of buildings 'for the Westlng-
nouse company Inside of nine months
has created a great f in ore throughout
Violent Attack of Diarrhoea Cured
and Perhaps a Life Saved.
"A short time ago I was taken with
n violent attack of diarrhoea and be
lieve I would have died if I had not
gotten relief," says John J, Patton, a
jeaqing citizen or Patton, Ala. "A friend
recommended Chamberlain's Colic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. I
bought n twenty-five cent bottle and
'after taking three doses of it was en
tirely cured. I consider It the best
remedy in tho world for bowel com
plaints." This remedy is pertain to bo
needed In almost every home before the
Hummer (s oyer. It can always be de
pended upon, even in the most severe
md dangerous cases. It is especially
valuable for summer diarrhoea In chil
dren, It Is pleasant to take, never falls
to give prompt relief. Why not buy It
now and be prepared for uch an euier
irejieyy For taic by all druggists.
From tho Boston Globe.
The flag, the Stars and Stripes, was
named "Old Glory" In 1S51 by a Salem,
Mass., skipper named William Driver.
Ho was at that time captain of the brig
Charles Doggett.
Captain Driver was a successful deep
sea sailor, and at tho limo of bestow
ing the name "Old Glory" in the Stars
and Stripes, he was preparing to shape
thu brig's course to the Southern Paci
fic. The story is told by tho compiler
of the genealogical memoir of the
Driver family, Harriet Ruth (Waters)
Cooks.
Just before the brig left Salem, a
young man at the head of a party of
friends saluted Captain Driver on the
deck of the Doggott and presented hhn
with a largo and beautifully made
American flag. It was clone up in
stops, and when sent up aloft nnd
broke out to the air. Captain
christened It "Old Glory."
.He took It to the Southern raclflc.
and years after, when old age forced
him to relinquish the sea, ho treasured
the flag as an old friend.
Captain William Driver removed to
Nashville, Tenn., In 1837, nnd he died
there in 1SSG. Previous to the outbreak
of hostilities between the North nnd the
South, "Old Glory" was flung to the
breeze every day from tho window of
Captain Driver's Nashville bouse, but
when the bullets began to zip and tho
odor of gunpowder to taint tho air the
old flag had to bo secreted.
Tt was kept out of sight inside :i great
bed comfortably until February 27, 1S62,
when Brigadier General Nelson's wing
of the Union army appeared in Nash
ville, when Captain Driver presented it
to tho general, to bo hoisted on tho
capitol. It was run up, ami Captain
Driver himself did the hoisting. Ho
watched it through the night, and, a
heavy wind coming up, he took It down
and sent a new flag up In its place.
Tho original "Old Glory" was begin
ning to ribbon. The second flag owned
by Captain Driver was given to the
bixth Ohio when that regiment left
ashvillc for home. It was placed in
the rear of a baggage wagon, where a
mule nosed It out and devoured it.
Tho original "Old Glory" was pre
served, and after the death of Captain
Driver, In 18S6, it was presented by tho
compiler of the Driver memoir to the
Essex institute, at Salem, Mass., where
it may now be seen.
