THE ELECTRIC LIGHT AS A FOG
SAFEGUARD.

In conversation with the younger Mr. Mackenzie,
son OF the general agent ofthe Compagnie Generale
Transatlantique. and who is also connected OH
cially with the corporation, Q HERALD reporter
alluded to the feasibility OF employing electric or
calcium lights as safeguards against collision in
fogs.
.sWel, - replied Mr. .sackenzie, eve have expert
mented with them-that is with the electric light,
but variety OF circumstances prevented Its adop-
tion and permanent application. The company
tested IL both here and in Europe.n
''Were the results at all satisfactory ~
'sThey were, understood, entirely son was the
reply.
"rhen, why were they not adopted Pn asked the
reporter.
"Well one consideration was the great expense
1t would involve. believe single complete outfit
OF necessary apparatus would cost something like
So, 900 or 4,0OO gold and another difficulty orig
mated in some squabble about the patent right OF
the system or apparatus There were conflicting
claims in the field, and the contestants could not
harmonize their difficulties, and at last the COM
pany stepped aside to wait until the dispute Of the
patentees was settled"
"What would be the expense per day of using
the electric light, after the apparatus had been
obtained and adjusteds" inquired the reporter.
II am not quite certain about that,n replied Mr.
Mackenzie; "but believe it would be about 500
day.n
''Well, that would not be very material increase
OF expense, considering that steamers may make
several trips without experiencing any fog" re.
joined the reporter.
"But the company made those experiments with
view to employing the light In all weather, not
merely for fogs," was Mr.. Mackenzie's reply.
''That seems scarcely necessary, as the improved
oil lights, with fine lenses, answer all fair clear
weather purposes; but. Mr.. Mackenzie, do you re-
member anything in regard to those experiments
as to the penetrative power OF the hight In an
ordinary marine fogY"
'res. 1t was found that they would penetrate a
fog with sort of luminous glare for mile and
half That is speaking fairly within bounds for 1
think the results have in some instances shown q
penetration OF two miles and half"
Mr.. Mackenzie then stated the results OF some
experiments he had seen made in ordinary dark
nights, "nether fair nor FOUL" and stated that the
company's experiments took place at their docks
and at the barge ONCE some three or four years
ago.
The reporter happened also to have been present
at some OF the experiments at the latter place,
when q comparatively small cata-dioptric lens was
barge ONCE, and the light was the product Of coll
battery directed against carbon points. The lens
was faced toward Staten Island at about
eight O'Clock at night, and the pilot and
number OF passengers on one Of the Staten Island
ferryboats, which arrived at Whitehall slip soon
afterward, informed the reporter that they were
enabled to read ordinary newspaper print with
ease at Quarantine landing, by the aid OF the light
in the barge onlce cupola. That was distance OF
at least SIX miles, and the night was very dark and
the atmosphere rather heavy.

In and by the company, which took tho proits ana
risks itself. This was done from the surplus
capital Three sister ships TO the Vile du Havre
are being built In Glasgow viz. the Europe,
Atlanfique and France. The Compagnie Generate
Transatlantique which owns this vessel, has rs
other vessels plying from France to Vera Cruz and
West India Islands; from st. Nazaire
to Aspinwali; from st. Thomas via ports
In Porto Rico, Hayu, Cuba and ia
maica; from St. Thomas to Martinique from Mar.
Unique to Cayenne via Demerara and Surinam.
Captain Surmont had served for short time In
the French Navy and LEFT that service Tor the
marine. In regard to the use Of electric lights on
steamers. Mr.. Mackenzie said that he thought 1t
would be . most important Improvement and
would add to the safety and security OF ocean
steamers. The St. Laurent OF their line had
an electric light attached when she left
in one Of her trips for France, but It vas de-
tached ana taken to Paris, where 1t was placed
on the ramparts during the Franco-Prussian war,
to show the defenders Of the capital where their
Prussian foes were operating around the walls.
This electric light was o most powerful one and
was exhibited on the Sound 1t penetrated
dense fog at 40 miles distance, and was continuous
in its light The company discontinued the use Of
the light, for what reason he did not know; 1t
might have been because OF its great expense. but
he would not be positive. He had the patent
right for the electric light for the United States.
The imperial government had granted. during the
reg OF Napoleon I'LL, subsidy OF $25 900 to each
vessel OF the company for every round trip made
by them, and although there have been several
changes o. government since, each administration
had continued the subsidy because of the carriage
Of the mails. The electric signal was now being
tested at the entrance to the rbor OF Havre and
1t shows brilliantly at distance Of 40 miles.
