Electric Power Transmission" and
gave the following account OF the great
plant at Tivoli, in Italy, from whence the
current is sent to Rome, eighteen miles
away:
The motive power is derived from
water flow Of about 1872 cubic feet per
minute under head OF l57 feet.
Six turbines of 30U-hOrse power each
are coupled direct to alternating dyna-
mos, 2S0,00G watts capacity, at 10 revolu-
tions a minute.
In addition there are three direct-cur-
rent machines. each coupled to a turbine
making 375 revolutions, which are used
as exciters for the alternators.
Az full load, potential of >, lC0 volts
is used. The current is conducted by
means of four bare copper wires between
Nos. Z and 3, B and ; guage), carried on
iron poles with iron insulators.
The drop in potential amounts to 20
per cent. on a line of 1874 miles (circuit

New Bath for ChIoride prlnt..

An amateur photographer has intro
duced a new method OF making chloride
paper easier and quicker to finish than
any other silver paper, and he claims.
also, that the process will bear favorable
comparison with any method Of printing
and finishing at present in vogue. The
main points of superiority of this process
are: That the bath is made at the time of
use and is extremely simple; it tones
tho parts more quickly than any other:
it absolutely obviates the unevenness OF
toning, which is usually the bugbear of
chloride prints; it renders overcoming
impossible and gives a pleasing gray
black tone, resembling platinotype.
The prints are completely toned in one
and one-balf to two minutes. The tray
need not be moved at all, and if six
prints. are immersed it takes all
the operators time to keep them
going. AS fast as he can get one
out of the tray he can insert a fresh
one. The deviser of this process states
that he can completely tone half a print
first, then the other half, and no dividing
line will be apparent and, Furthermore,
that dozeG air bubbles or streaks can
be left on the print, causing bright red
spots upon the otherwise finished print,
yet II these be covered over and the ton
ing continued there will lie no trace
whatever of the marks when finished.
