Through the blunder OF considering the Dis


trict appropriation bill under the rules Of the
last House the additional provisions aimed
against the overhead electric wires have been
stricken out, and the bill proposes no material
notifications OF the existing law on this sub
iect. Those representatives, who. protesting to
be hostile to the overhead wires, defeated by
points of order the requirement. that the cleo
trio light wires should De buried after a certain
date, and that after a later date the poles
should be taxed. ought now az a vindicatIon of
their good faith to formulate and press for
passage the comprehensive and well-guarded
plan of burial for which they expressed a de-
sire. Under the law no additional overhead
wires can be erected. and an elaborate and able
report on the best method OF disposing of those
now standing has been prepared by the Engi-
neer Commissioner and submitted to the Senate
in response to its request. The careful consid-
GRAFTON of the matter by the District authorities
which some Of the Representatives wished q
preliminary to the serious step OF incOmmoding
the overhead electric wire companies has al
ready been given. Congress, if it wants to act,
can act at once on the basis of the infor-
nation furnished by Major Raymond's
report, and by the discussion of the
subject during several years in both Houses.
Tha, the overhead electric wires should be put
underground is the opinion of the public in
every large city, and is IT,, expressed opinion
of the overwhelming majority of Congressman.
II Congress is sincere IN its u,terances it can
and will pass promptly an effective law on the
subject II on the other hand our legislators
are merely talking for popular effect, and act
ing under the quiet influence of the corpora
tons affected they " II consider the District
appropriation bill under rules which permit a
single member to strike out new legislation,
will refuse to bury the wires through provisions
in the appropriation bill on the ground that
there is another and better way Of accomplish |
ing the desired end. and will then proceed to
neglect entirely to consider legislation putting
the preferred method into practical effect.

The Forced Draft.

Chief Inspector Williams of the Engi-
neering Department of the British Navy,
has contributed an article to the London
Army and Navy Magazine on the subject of
forced draft in boilers. He declares,
almost in so many words, that the attempt
to make use of the forced draft is COM
plete failure, and intimates that it must
be abandoned He shows that with the
present system of boiler construction the
use of forced draft with high pressures will
always cause leakage that the overheat-
ing Of the boilers causes the tubes and
stays to give way under the strains due
to end-on expansion and that very
strong draft, or its equivalent-a limited
forced draft-while yielding far less horse
power, gives almost as much speed. He
suggested what many of the American
navy engineers have suggested, larger
boilers as the only substitute for the forced
draft.
