Trial of the Worlds Fair Search Light
Proves Very Satisfactory.
SANDY Hook, N. j., June 6.-The
great electric light that was recently
erected here has been given a trial. The
light was exhibited at the worlds fair.
So far-reaching were its rays that places
far down the Jersey coast, in Staten
Island and in ConeY Island, were plain
ly visible. Vessels at anchor in the bay
showed up almost as plainly as in the
day time. The weather was not suit
able for the perfect working of the
light, but even with this condition
against it the rays must have been visi-
bic Tor great distance. It is claimed
that the light can be thrown without
difficulty as far as Philadelphia.
