Electricity on the Canals.

Inventors are still at work on the
problem of electrically propelling,
canal boats, and a series of interest
ing experiments is to be tried this
summer on the Erie canal, near
Rochester, N. Y. One Of the chief
difficulties in the way of a success
full adoption of the trolley system to
the propelling Of canal boats has
been that the boats, unlike street
cars, are not guided by tracks, and,
besides, very rarely travel in a
straight line. To overcome this
difficulty a laterally moving trolley
wire has been invented, which,
moves sideways in accordance with
the motion Of the boat, and permits
the trolley wheel to be kept in con-
slant electric contact with the feed
wire. The literally moving wires
are supported on TRAVERSE guy
wires by travellers which permit a
sldeway motion OF the wire. The
use of the laterally moving conduc-
ton wirespermits afast boat to pass
a slow one going in the same direc-
ton, and enables the boatmen to
run their boats to dock on either
side of the canal and to turn the
boats around where the width Of
the canal permits, The canal al
Rochester, where experiments are
to be made with the new system,
contains sharp curves, long curves
overhead bridges and lock, so that
the practical operation Of the new
system can be demonstrated under
all the circumstances that would b.
encountered anywhere on the Erie
canal. If the experiments prove
successful, as expected, it is est
mated that an introduction of thu
system would double the presen,
carrying capacity Of the Erie canal

THE PACIFIC SQUADRON.
Chief Cause of the Numerous De.
sertions of Seamen.
Stringent Restrictions Render Service at
Mare Island So Unbearable That Com
potent Men Are Hard to
Retain.

Capt. Ludlow's requisition to the Sec
rotary of the navy for men for the
Behring sea fleet and the desertion by
the dozens of sailors from north-bound
vessels in Puget sound have attracted
considerable attention in marine cir
cles to the fact that enlistments in the
United States naval service are be-
coming beautifully less every day.
Not only is the Behring sea fleet hav-
ing hard time getting men, but the
news has leaked out that the whole
Pacific squadron is short of seamen,
and that there exists spirit of discon-
tent among those that are enlisted
which almost borders on mutiny.
A San Francisco Call reporter inter-
viewed dozen or more seamcn from
the navy yard separately, and as these
mems statements, with the exception
of two, agreed in every particular it
might be well for the secretary of the
navy to investigate the cause of some of
the mems complaints.
"Why do men of the Pacific squad
ron descrt?" was asked of q seaman of
the United States steamer Alliance.
He answered.: ''For the simple. rea-
son that the restrictions placed on the
mon of the Pacific squadron are more
stringent than at any other naval sta
ton of the Uaitcd States. A sailor is
allowed absolutely no privileges at all
when On duty at Mare island. Unlike
the British navy yard at Esquimalt, or
even the yards on the Atlantic coast of
the United States, Mare island is bound
up with lot of rules and red tape
which makes sailor slave in every
sense of the word every hour of the
twcnty-foar. Vessels Of the Pacific
squadron, especially those on local
cost and Bc.lring sea duty, appear to
be commended after the fashion OF the
Marc iGlaaG navy yard. Zines are i'm
posed for the least incivility and
breach OF discipline, and no other time
save that allotted for shore leave is
given to Gcaincn during which they
might call their souls their own.
$50 dcgcnerated has become the
naval service of the Pacific coast
through the enforcement of trifling
and aTTrGv2ting rules ct the navy
yard ard also on board of vessels of
the Pacific squadron that good men
will no longer sign to serve here. The
consequence is every grcenhorn that
comes along is picked up, and the aver
age crow Of naval vessel on Pa
cifc station consists of the scum of all
nationalitics. Naval scamcn dread
duty ct Mare island about as much as
they do life in n prison. Nearly all the
time of the men stationed at the yard
is spent in bowling and scraping around
officers and working on scnsclcss jobs,
sometimes OF very mental nature"
Several of the late crew of the The
tbs, men from the Omaha and few
of the Montcrey's crew told stories al
most Identical with that Of the ALI
ancc man. Perhaps it is not the fear
Of northern voyage alone which
makes men desert the United States
navy and renders the present scarcity
of sailors so obvious.

VICTORY FOR PROTECTION.

When it became definitely known
that the treasury department was
Withholding Colonel Ayers report on
the tinplate production of the first
quarter OF the current year Tin and
Terne wrote to the manufacturers re-
questing them to furnish it with a
transcript OF the returns made to the
special agent.
OF the thirty-six firms known to be
actually turning out tin and terne
plates, twenty-four responded, the
other thirteen refusing to comply on
the ground OF discourtesy to the de-
partment.
The returns sent in show that the
twenty-four firms turned out 23, ,43l,-
6S6 pounds OF timed and terne plate
during the first quarter OF the year, of
which 12,929,129 pounds were tin
plates, and 1O,502, 556 pounds were
terne plates.
This total is more than double the
entire production of all the firms in
1892 1.-THE Mckinley laws first year., +,
when the aggregate output was 49,
119, ,102 pounds.
Assuming that the thirteen firms
which refused the statistics, rnanufac-
tured on the same scale as the Others,
which from the character OF their
mills is fair presumption, the entire
first quarter OF this year, was 81
242, ,246 pounds, or more than double
the corresponding period OF last year
So it will be seen that the tinplate
industry is growing in spite OF the free
trade victory of last November
In two years more the industry will
be as well established as any other in
the country, and Americans will no
longer pay S2O,0OO,OOO annually to
the Welsh tin makers.
