ELECTRICAL WAGON,

1t Is now in Operation on the Streets
of London.
The latest development of electric
traction is the new electric parcel and
advertising van for ordinary roads, now
in use in London. By a careful ar
rangement the working parts are re-
duced to a minimum, leaving the whole
Of the interior Of the body free for
passenger OF goods. The accumulators
supplying the motive power are sus-
pended in a special carrier beneath the
body of the van, so that q recharged
set may be substituted in two minutes
without interfering with the contents of
the van. The steering gear, which is
of the greatest Importance, is said to
be satisfactory, the driver having per-
feet control Of the vehicle. The van
is also lighted by electricity, and is con-
troled by a single switch, giving six
degrees of speed. An estimate shows
that the cost Of working a van by
electricity, equal to two-horse vehicle,
including charging, maintenance, etc.,
is about 4 cents per mile The car
runs about thirty miles with each
charge.-Philadelphia Record.

The recorder of deeds, Charles H. J..
Taylor, appeared as the defendants intimate
friend, and w. Calvin Chase was present as
counsel. The affair occurred at the Seventh
street transfer box, where, it is claimed, the
transfer agent refused White ticket, saying
that he had not been on the car.
A witness was brought who saw White get
off. Remarks were passed between the de-
fendant and the transfer agent, in which, it
was alleged, the former swore at the latter
gripman who was standing on the corner at
the time of the occurrence corroborated this
statement
Prosecuting Attorney Richardson said that
he thought the political end of the defend
ants life would more than Offset the ministe-
rial, and that it was to be presumed that poll
ticians would swear. The court, however,
entertained contrary opinions. but in the light
of the testimony given by White himself con-
cluded that the language was used as
charged.
Recorder Taylor said that he did not think
that the defendant would swear, and at
tributed the evidence of the witnesses to de-
tective hearing. On account of the surround
ing circumstances of the case Judge Miller
suspended sentence.
