Street cars have long been run by cables in San Francisco and Chicago, and the sys- tenn is also in use in Philadelphia. Its sue- cessful operation has attracted the attention of the Third Avenue railroad company in New York city, which proposes to introduce it there soon. A cable extending like belt from drum at one end of the road to a similar drum at the other end will be oper- ated by steam power supplied by stationary engines, one at either end of the road. The cables will run between the rails of each track and the cars will be so arrange that they can be attached to and detached from the cable at will. If horses could speak they would doubtless be hearty advocates of the cable system of running street cars.

A great ma jority of the stockholders are willing to part with their shares at ten per cent. of what they paid for them and relinquish all their rights. De Lesseps has been aided in his colossal schemes heretofore by the fact that money is only worth II and ? per cent. in France and that great numbers of people are willing to hazard their spare cash in ventures promis ing and 10 per cent interest.
