ELECTRIC LIGHTING.
The American Company Secure a New
 System.


 NEW YORK, Sept. 17.-Papers were exc cuted to-day between William H. Appleton, president of the Fuller-Wo Electric Light company, and Edward H. Golf, president of the American Electric Manufacturing com pany, by which the latter company has se- cured control of the FHller-Wood system of electric lighting, with their new fve-story factory situated on West Eighteenth street, which is said to be one of the most complete ly equipped with the newest and best ma chinery for the manufacture of electric light ing apparatus in this city, and all entirely new. The contract carries with it all the latest inventions and improvements mrde by Professor Wood, which are said to be of great value and when put into practical will supersede all of the old Fuller patents and make the system really the most complete, and far more econ omical in the cost of construction and con- sumption of power than any of the arc light systems now in use. This move on the part of the American company, and the eombina- ton recently made with the Edison company by which the two companies work together in introducing their perfect systems, places it where it can successfully meet any compe- tition or combinations by rival electric light ing or gas companies.
 President Golf was seen this morning at his Fifth avenue office regarding his com pany abandoning the Houston dyn- amo and lamp for the Wood patents. He said he had nothing to say against the Thomson-Houston system; that he held it and Professor Thomson in the highest es- teem; but he considered the new system which the American company had adopted would prove fully economical to build and profitable to operate any of the other systems now in use, and will enable the American company to be independent and de- rive the entire profits of the work. He said he expected to run the New York factory to it's full capacity in the manufacture of dy- namo macines, and that the lamps will pro- bably be made by the Electrical Development and Manufacturing company of Boston, which company is fully equipped for this kind of work, and is owned principally by the American company. It is understood that this last combination brings into the American company large amount of new capital, and that the business will hereafter be pushed with greater vigor than ever be- fore. The company claim to have orders now on hand for over $200,0O0 worth of new apparatus.

The Rubber strike at mi1lvt1le.

PROVIDENCE, Sept. 17.-Four of the ten ants in the houses belonging to the Woon- socket rubber company at Millville were mo- tified to vacate their tenants last week, the time to vacate expiring this morning at 9 o'clock. They left their tenements in 8 peaceful manner, no crowd collecting what ever. The strikers complain of the high rents of the tenements in which they reside and say that when they were working they could not afford to pay such high rents. Not only this, but the tenements are poorly con structed, and while appearing to be excel lently made the outside, on the inside they are exactly the opposite. The State de tectives numbering about fifteen are there, but everything is quiet at present. The Knights of Labor hold 8 meeting Saturday for the purpose of paying those of the mem bers who reside here.

Certain To Re Heard From Again 1n
 American Politics.
 BOSTON, Sept. 17.-An Augusta, Me. special to the Herald says: A gentleman who evil dently speaks with authority was asked whether MT. Blaine would again run for the presidency He replied "That remains to be seen It is fact that his political admir- CTS in Maine do not acquiesce in the remarks recently uttered by Governor Long of Mas sachusetts and think he was altogether too previous in what he said about MT. Blaine as presidential candidate. It is under stood that MT. Blaine does not consider his strength impaired in consequence of his de- feat, which he attributes more to the Bur chard accident than to any other cause. Fur ther than this he is ciose-mouthed. When candidate is beaten by so close a margin as MT. Blaine was and received the largest vote ever thrown for Q minority candidate it Is hardly reasonable to presume that the presi- dential bee in his bonnet has flown. It is a marked trait in MT. Blaine's character when ever his personal aspirations meet with a check to pick his flint and try again. One thing is certain, he is not shelved in Ameri- can politics"

Sir Vernon Hareourt Speaks.

Sir Vernon Harcourt Speaks.
 LONDON, Sept. 17.-Sir Vernon Harcourt, speaking at Plymouth tonight, said that the late government was prepared to abolish coercion in Ireland and would have retained only the provisions against boycotting. He was unable just now to give the programme of the Liberal party, but would say that MT. Gladstone had returned in frst-rate health and prepared for fight. He (Harcourt) shar- ed MT. Chamberlain's opinions and believed that measures looking to free education and the regulation of the liquor traffic also required the attention of Parliament. Sir Michael icks-Beach in speech at Cirencester to- night commented upon the striking absence from the speeches of the Liberal leaders of any reference to the past deeds of the late government, especially regarding General Gordon and the Soudan campaign. He was strongly opposed to disestablishment, but admitted that the church is in need of reformation. He expressed his approval of MT. Chamberlain's attitude to- ward Parnell and said that the Tories favored local government in Scotland and England, but it was inexpedient for him to propound his views upon that subject at this time.
