1891 a young electrician, now in
Paris, on looking through Carnegie's
great steel rail plant at Braddock,
Penn, casually suggested that cleo
tricity could be made to operate the
widely separated pieces of machinery
at saving of many thousands year.
Recently Andrew Carnegie visited the
plant for the first time in two years
and saw electricity doing the work.
This improvement, together with
Others, makes it possible for eight
men to do the work 500 did in 1891.
