BRIDGES A BIG DIFFICULTY.
A German Electrical Invention Which
Promises Large Results.

Largo Results.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.-In view Of
the marvellous growth of the use of cleo
tricity for power and lighting purposes
and electro-chemical operations, a spe-
cial report to the state department from
United States Consul Mason at Frank
fort, describing a new device for the
economical conversion Of the high pres
sure alternating currents which are
unavoidably associated with any system
of long distance transmission Of electric
power, will be of greatest interest to
American electricians. The invention
Bridges an Industrial Difficulty
which becomes more and more serious
with each step Of progress in this great
work and ayear's test of the device at
the Frankfort accumulation works shows
that the efficiency Of the new system
known as the Pollack rectifier is fully
sc per cent. In other words, a 5000
volt alternating current has been
transmitted with a loss Of but
four per CEN and one important
result is that motors Of all sizes may be
driven by this converted direct current,
storage batteries, may be charged and
electrical generations performed-all
impossible with the alternating current.
A full description and illustrations OF
the apparatus is given by Mr.. Mason in
his report, showing that it depends en-.
tirely upon the arrangements Of sets OF
double brushes in a small motor moving
spontaneously with the distant power
yielding dynamo.

DULUTH, Nov. 9.-October's traffic
on the railroads at the head of the lake
surpassed all records, amounting to &c.
S95 q r of all kinds of commodities.
This is not including about 20, 900 cars
OF iron ore received here and at Two
Harbors. This was 6,462 cars better
h a one year ago, when all previous
records We're broken and the record for
h present year established. 1t is ex-
pected that November will be a still
better month. Not only is there a big
eastbound business in grain AMI -four,
but the westbound commodities of all
kinds, except coal. are showing big.
Coal receipts fell of 1900 tons from
September, and there is no doubt there
will be a shortage before spring.

RIVALS SOUTH DAKOTA.
Fairfield County, Connecticut, Becoming
Famous for Divorces.

Famous for Divorces.
BRIDGEPORT, Coon, Nov. 9.-Fair-
field county, Conn, is becoming as IA
nous for divorces as Sioux Falls, s. D.
Judge Elmer has been on the bench Of
the superior court in this city for the
last three weeks, and every Friday,
which is divorce day, he has from
twelve to twenty-four petitions for di-
vorce to pass IN. They were all uncon.
tested, and the majority Of them were
brought on the statutory grounds Of de-
sertion for three years, intemperance or
intolerable cruelty. Judge Elmer, in
disposing of the last batch Of appli-
cations, referred to the epidemic of
divorces which prevails in Fairfield
county, and said that in the future the
time Of the court will not be monopo-
lizen in this He declined to
consider a number Of petitions then Of.
fered. Nearly all the judges of the SUI
periOr courts of Connecticut which
have jurisdiction over petitions Of di.
vorce have the reputation of being lib.
.ral in their decisions. A case il
brought and service is made on the de-
PENDANT. If there is no appearance fol-
the defendant the case goes on the
docket as an uncontested case. There
1t must remain three months before i,
a be claimed for trial. Then the
hearing is had, and with satisfactory
proof hat the defendant had been ap
prised of the suit, and proof sufficient
to make out a case under the question
ing of the attorney, the judge in nine
cases out of every ten tells the petition
er to take the Decree"

WASHINGTON, Nov. 8.-United States
Consul Monahan, at Chemnitz, in a re-
port to the state department describes
= new process Of paving which is being
practiced with marked success in Ger
many. In brief it consists Of using stone
blocks, faced only on n side, imbedded
in Portland cement and gravel, SO as to
afford perfectly square blocks, which
are made in molds. The process is
cheap and the pavement is far superior
to the ordinary solid stone block system.
