WHERE is that tin-plate factory which
was TO have been erected, first at Baltimore
and then at Chicago? So far as the public
are aware, no step has been taken to estab-
llsh the plant, about which some weeks ago
there was such a loud flourish Of trumpets.
The imposition Of tax Of four cents on
tin-plate was an excellent indication that
the manufacturers Of iron roofing had a
hand in the schedule Of the Mckinley bill,
which advanced the duty on that article of
commerce.

RAPID TRANSIT PROBLEM.

Among the prominent systems which
involve the perfectng Of modes Of travel
ing by electricity is the portelectric. The
exploters of this system have been steadily
carrying on operations for some time at
their experimental station in Dorchester
Professor DOlbeaT, the electrician Of the
POrtelectric Company. says that although
theoretically, the car can travel on the track
at the rate OftwO miles minute, the diill'
culties of the existing conditions prevent the
requirement of such speed. AT q recent
test. 20 which members OF the electrical
press were invited, the force OF these dilii'
culties were made manifest. A serious him
drance has been the adapting OF the car 70
the compound curve, made Of grade and
curve Of short radius. and on the day OF
the test, beside the unfayOrable conditions
Of track and bearings, defective insulation
coils of too low a resistance and excessive
humidity had TO be cOntended with. IN
spite of these, however, speed OF sixty
miles an hour was obtained, and in all
probability these drawbacks will all disap
pear in actual work. The portelectric gives
excellent promise Of displacng the pneu
matte system, especially for long distance
work. and when the technical difficulties
referred TO have been overcome, there car
be little doubt Of the commercial success o.
the system.

Electricity is being brought more and
more into intimate connection with photog-
raphy. 1t is now used in lighting studios
and for securing artistic effects of light and
shade in the subject TO be photographed.
In order to avoid dark, hard shadows, the
light is projected on TO a sheet of alabaster,
and from this is refracted on TO the subject
The result is soft and exquisite IN tone.
The electric light is also used for printing
by enlargement, and for balloon and KITE
photography. In the latter, the camera Is
attached 10 a kite. When the desired
height has been reached, the exposure is
made by electric current, and pictures are
thus secured which it would be impossible
10 obtain by any other means.
