ELECTRICITY APPLIED.

THE burlington railroad, it is said. is
experimenting with the electric motor
for its suburban trains about Chicago.
AT Il late trial of the Sims Edison tor
pedo. it is said, that speed of twenty
six miles an hour was kept up against a
strong tide.
1T is currently stated that the North
ern Pacific railroad will be equipped
and running its main line trains by cleo
tricity in three years from this time.
AN experiment in weaving silk by
electric looms has been made in Ger
many and the results encourage Il re-
turn to manufacturing in the houses of
the wcaverS.
PERHAPS the most prominent feature
of the electrical industries ut the pres
ent time is the general activity in the
application of electric power for the
performance of heavy work and in
larger units than have formerly been
called for. This is especially noticeable
IN the mining industry.
