IMPROVED TELEPHONY.
A New Transmitter Invented for Long
Distance Lines.

Distance Lines.
There has recently been filed an appli-
cation, says a New York special to the
Boston Advertiser, for patent upon a
telephone transmitter which, according
to the claims made for it by Mr. Benia-
min, its inventor, is the smallest, cheap
est and simplest transmitter yet made and
one which gives results as satisfactory as
the best transmitters in use. The Ordi-
nary Blake transmitter now in common
use costs about 50 to manufacture, and
eing a somewhat delicate piece of me-
c anim, is more or less liable to get out
o. order. The new transmitter is about
t. . size of n scent nickel and about three
times as thick. 1t resembles a small pill
box coated with tar or some other water
proof material, and weighs about half an
ounce, no shaking will affect ii, and there
is no Ostensible reason why it should not
be in as good condition at the end of 20
years as when finished. The cost of man
ufachTe is about . cents. In order to use
Il novel transmitter it is necessary only
t. h0l3 it about two inches away from
t , mouth When talking.
+. 7. Davis, the vice-president of the
\ atr0politan Telephone company, said:
" We IRE using the telephone constantly
b tween here and Boston, but only as an
e per meDt and for our own convenience
7 line is not open to the public. In the
f turo, however, probably within q year.
V shall have lines running to all large

EDITORS JONES AND DANA.
. icy Say Few Words About Each
Other.

Mr.. George Jones, of the Times, says a
New York special of the Sd, will sail for
Europe tomorrow, to be absent two
months. He says: During my absence
the Times will certainly be conducted as
an anti-Blaine paper. Should Mr.. Cleve-
land be nominated by the democratic
z r5v-and ] see no reason why he should
secure the nOmination-the Times will
tncut doubt support his candidacy. l
81 Mr.. Cleveland as very good can
q ia,-, and, if nominated, it is my firm
b .ief that he will be elected. [ am on
Cd terms personally with Samuel J.
7 den, and know that he would not ac-
c ot the nomination even if it were ten
d red to him unanimously. I am ready
tt admit that his mental powers are as
V gorous to-day as they were when he
t, )k such an active part in overturning
t e Tweed ring; but physically he is not
pa le of entering on such campaign
a viii take place this fall. 1t is not so
L uch his age as his disease that's against
hm. When he wrote his letter Of dech-
ttion he meant every word that appear
el in that document. OF course Charles
4. Dana would like the nomination to
tie presidency, and therefore opposes
Il ut of Mr. Cleveland, whom [ have no
doubt, he believes to be the strongest
candidate that could be put forward by
the democratic party"
Replying to Mr.. Jones, Mr.. Dana said
this afternoon: 80 Mr.. Jones says that
Mr.. Dana wants to be president, does he?
Mr.Jones has no authority for his remark
Mr.. Dana is not in the least dissatisfied
with his present mode of life. He is en-
tirely comfortable in his present social,
business and professional relations. He
enjoys a position of his own choice and
of the publics choice, and has constantly
declined all suggestions looking toward
making the effort to be nominated for
the presidency. While it would be un-
candid for any man to say that he would
not feel proud to be president, Mr.. Dana
has discouraged all talk connecting his
name with that or any other Office. He
is content with his present position.
