not obligated so to do, but his company
always desired to doa little better than

the ground for the new Eighteenth and

then adopted by the Second Branch.

was set up, the visitors divided, one
half watching the lamps On the second
floor Of the factory, while the others
went to the dynamo on the first, and
the machine was then put through some
Of the most difficult tests possible
to be applied TO dynamo,
the apparatus coming ont unscathed.
One of the tests made and reported In
the REGISTER at the time, was the load
ing of the dynamo with one hundred
and one 9, ZOO candle power lamps, and
these were thrown off, first in patches
of twenty-five, then by fifties, and
finally the entire abnormal load or one
hundred and one lamps was tossed OF
OF the machine at one whack, without
any very noticeable effect as to sparkling.
These tests, the process OF manufact-
ure, the regulating apparatus, and the
general lightness and accessibility OF the
machines all attracted the attention OF
the Commission, and the most searching
investigation of rival systems failed to
convince them that any were superior
or equal to the Wood machine.
Twenty cities and towns in this coun-
try have already adopted the Fort
Wayne machine for municipal lighting
purposes, OF which Wheelirg's plant
will be by far the largest and most i'm
portant. Other cities have been await
ing the action of this city, before swing
ing into line. Outside of municipal
stations, the Fort Wayne apparatus is
in use in countless cities and towns,
and they have, at st. Louis, the largest
electric light station in the world, 4,200
arc lights being supplied. Other large
stations are: New Orleans, 1900; De-
troit, 1.40O; Philadelphia, 1,s00; Louis
vile, 740; Kansas City, 600; Cincinnati,
$50, and so on. These, we repeat, are
plants owned by companies, who sell
their lights at so much per year, but 1t
will be seen that the Wheeling munich
pal plant OF $50 lamps, will, consider
ing the relative size of the cities, take
high rank.
The negotiations between the city
and Fort Wayne Company have been
carried on with Mr.. c. S. Knight, who
last evening assured REGISTER repre-
sentative that it would be his earnest
endeavor to use all despatch in getting
the work of construction commenced
and completed. AS soon as the papers
are fixed up he will look after his sub
contracts for engines, boilers, betting,
shafting, poles, ETC., and will push all
branches Of the work.
Engineer Seeley has been summoned
