n A Southern Estimate Of tho Expense Of
%g%,H, Preparing Meal at Homo.
AS to the cost of electric cooking, q
few figures from letter to the Lon
don Electrical Review are pertinent.
The writer Of this letter refers to the
fact that there are large number
of cooking operations where the heat
has to be applied for short periods of
time and only at such points where
it is actually required. 1t is to such
operations that electricity is especial
~ applicable owing to the quick
and ready way it will furnish heat.
Cooking operations, such as baking,
would seem to be unadapted for cleo
trio heating owing to length of time
heating must be continued, but at
tention is called to the fact that the
oven being entirely closed there is
need for a full current only for the
time necessary to bring the oven up
to the proper temperature, and that
only one;fourth Of the original cur
rent is necessary to maintain the
heat and carry on the cooking.
The writer of the letter referred to
has conducted a number of expert.
ments in electric cooking, and his
results are taken for our estimate,
which is based upon the cost of cleo
trio power in southern stations
Electric power for heating and cook
ing, we think, could be obtained at
motor power rates especially as cook
ing is generally performed during
the day, when the electric current is
not needed for lights. This rate
among our southern stations is gen.
orally below 10 cents per 1000 Watt
hours-being about Z cents on an
average. Taking our usual pressure
of 80 volts, the unit of 1000 Watt
hours would give 20 amperes for one
hour, which would cost cents.
The electric toaster will toast two
large slices of bread thoroughly in
one minute. The toaster will con-
sumo IA amperes at so volts. Allow
ing IS minutes, one could readily
toast a loaf of bread at a cost for
electric power Of / 1-6cents The cleo
trio griller will cook four chops in IL
minutes, using IL amperes at so
volts, and if one allowed Is minutes
in all (three minutes for heating
griller) our heat for this operation
will cost us a fraction over 1 cent
A pint of water can be boiled for
about six-tenths of a cent, and so on.
From these figures it can be seen
that good breakfast, with chops.
eggs, toast and coffee for four, could
be cooked at cost for heat Of about
6 cents
The ease and certainty with which
the heat can be raised or fixed tenn
perature maintained make electrical
heating the par excellence method
of cooking. For instance, in. roast
ing or baking the heat can bemain-
tanned SO regularly all around the
electric oven and SO uniformly that
it is not necessary to haste the meat
or to turn the bread while cooking
If we consider with this the advan-
tage of the freedom from smoke,
smell, dirt and waste heat, and the
readiness and ease with which heat
is obtained, we can certainly say
that electrical heating, all things
considered, is cheap and desirable

WEEKLY TRADE REVIEW.
The General Outlook for Business a Little
More Cheerful.

NEW YORK, July 15.--R. G. Dun q Co. 3
Weekly Review OF Trade says:
There Is somewhat better tone In bust
ness. because the money markets are q
little less stringent. But 1t cannot be
said "a yet that there Is any distinct inn
provenfent. In every direction unusual
conservatism prevails. orders are relatively
small. the volume Of business Is restricted
and waiting policy rules New York
banks have received some money from the
interior, but are not yet clear that 1t 10
best to retire clearing house certificates
because there are said to be weak spots,
which may yet require liberal extension OF
credits.
Other cities have drawn less from New
York because their business Is restricted.
Some gold has come already from abroad,
and more is expected within the next
week, but exports Of products do not In
crease as much as has been expected.
improvement at Boston is slow, owing
to extreme rates for money. Shoeshops
are short of orders. and some have closed;
leather is quiet and tending downward,
and rubber goods are dull There Is a
lack Of orders Ia dry goods; woolens are
slow. The unreasonable weather has
checked operations in dry goods.
The failures during the past week have
not diminished In number, being 374 In the
United States against i96 last year for the
same week, and in Canada Is against %

capital exceeding t200.00e each. Last
week the failures In the United States
numbered 324 and the previous week 307.

THE FAIR TO CLOSE SUNDAYS.
After Tomorrow. Because the Managers Find
That They Do Not Pay.

CHICAGO, July i5-By a vote Of "a to 4
the Worlds fair directors last evening,
after a three-hours' session, decided to
close the exposition gates on Sundays
after July 10, which is to be known as
"Heroes" day. The belief was general
that the seven.day fair was unwise in
view Of the past experience and most of
the directors went to the meeting with
the intention Of voting to abolish the Sun
day exhibition.
Vice President Peck read q resolution,
which was approved by President Higin-
botham, which explained the failure Of o
Sunday fair and contained q mo.sou that
an order be issued providing for closing
the gates every Sunday after July 18 In
the discussion which followed, attention
was called to the many closed exhibits on
Sunday and to the fact that workingmen,
whose chief interest In the exposition
would be in the machinery, could not en-
10Y that exhibit In It's entirety, because the
machines are not run Sunday.

giant supper was served and the evening
spent In listening to. vocal and instru-
mental selections. The party broke up

A TRIP TO CAM p.
what u Pawtucket Rsrtv Thought OF the
Place and the Conveyanoes.

~
Place and the Conveyances.
Yesterday party from this city went to
visit the soldiers In camp at Quonset
Point. They started on the special train
at I rs o'clock p. m. from Providence and
the trip to Davisyille was made without
special incident. II was there the troubles
OF the party began. Party wagons were
drawn up In line ut the depot and one
shouter kept roaring, "First team to the
camp" Those from this city got into
this one which was quite a good looking
rig equipped with four horses.
The shouter was true to his word and
his was the first wagon to get started for
which the pawtucket party, who by the
way had front seats, thanked their stars.
A few stray Legislators from Providence
who held State passes, together with Col.
O'Reiily OF Woonsocket, were IN the con-
veyance, and when the driver said, "fares
please" they smiled and produced ex-
camp. The driver politely but firmly re-
fused to cash them. State passes were of
no use to him. Uncle Sans despised sill
yer quarters were what counted as a pass
on the "first team to camp"
The holders of the passes withdrew their
smiles and got ria of their silver trash
and were thankful they did not trust
themselves to the mercy OF the ex-Gov-
erncr's pass.
Then they took n look back To the Leg
islative team and thanked their good for
tune that II ey were I'm the wrong one, for
a glance at the wagons In the rear, seen
at intervals between clouds of dust, re-
vealed durt- -begrinned lot.
One thing was the result of the visit.
Those Legislators who went down will
vote for any mode OF getting to camp be-
sides the way they got there yesterday.
They will either build spur track, a
macadamized road or a wharf. Every
body damned the commission who picked
out camp ground in such a Godfor-
saken place. IL was the universal opinion
that 1t must have had big load OF cham
pagne on board when II went over that
road to scamp"
One ride over the road was enough for
the Pawtucket party. They forfeited their
railroad fares and came up by Steamer
Frances upon which there was no dust.

MERCHANTS PROTEST
Against Extending L0ns-
dale Avenue Line.
WHAT BUSINESS MEN SAY.
Council Should Consider the City First
and Railroad After.

Several OF the business men OF this city
have been seen by representative OF the
TRIBUNE In relation to the proposed
street railroad extension of the line on
Lonsdale avenue and the Western dis
trict OF Central Falls, saylesville and
Lonsdale to the city OF Providence, to the
detriment Of the trade of this city.
David Harley of the firm of David Har-
ley q 70. expressed himself as materially
opposed to such movement. Men who
misrepresented the 'city's interests by
voting to grant such franchises should be
returned to private life for the interest of
the city. The only true representatives OF
the city were those who looked out for
the welfare of the trade of the city.
/ Messrs. Sharten berg Il Robinson were
equally opposed to such a movement.
They had no objection to railroad fran
chises being granted to run out of the city,
as well as IN, II the people were only
brought to or near the centre. They did
not want the erection of any Chinese wall
by stopping all cars In the centre and
allowing them to go no further, but they
thought 1t was In the interest of the
city to have all lines OF railroad radiate
from the centre, or near IL, ana then give
purchasers their choice to make their pur-
chases In this city or not. The merchants
did not want any favors, only an even
show fort the trade OF the suburbs, which
naturally belongs here.
X. F. Radikin OF the firm of Radikin &
CooDey also condemned the proposition
to give any such franchise. This fact that
the line asked for was short was not the
way to look at it. 1t was the connecting
link for direct line of track OF from to
10 miles which tapped the suburban CON-
munity of this city and diverted the trade
away from here without any opportunity
for choice.
Messrs. Deaby Brothers were loud In
their praise of those who contended for
the interests of the merchants OF this
city rather than those of Providence.
Messrs. Chantler Bros. were equally
emphatic, while those In the clot line
such as McElroy & Mooney, ]. Shuman,
W. ii. McDevitt and Alexander Strauss
protested against such ruinous policy
against the interests of the city.
Those engaged In the gents furnish
ing goods line were all inclined to voice
the same sentiments and Lynd q Murphy,
Sol. Cohen, Standard Boot q Shoe Com
pany and others hoped that the City
Council would consider the city first and
the railroad people afterwards.

THE cHocTAW MURDERERS.
The Record OF the Court Shows Damaging
Evidence Against the Prisoners

WASHINGTON, July 15.-Acting Secre-
tary Sims of the interior department has
received copy Of the courts records in
the trial of the nine Choctaw Indians re-
Gently convicted of murder by the national
court. The record shows that the defend
ants were represented by counsel and sew
eral witnesses were summoned In their
behalf. The evidence, however, so far as
the record shows, was all Of a most posi-
tive character and very damaging to the
defendants The record also shows that
reprieves were granted by the Judge of the
circuit court until Aug. 4. Acting Secre-
tary Sims will examine the record as
transmitted, but it is unlikely that any
action will be taken until Secretary
Smiths return.
