While French enterprise is expectant-

CINE principle before embarldng ex-
tensive capital in so new a field, the
English have found practical autonl-

a practical application. A company has
already been formed, known as the
London Electrical Cab company, with
q, capital of $75O,00O, and in the course
of few weeks $50 cabs, most of which
are already built, will be started in the
streets of London.
1t is claimed by the projectors of this
company that che electrical automob-
ilism has been practically solved by
the mechanism whose patterns they
hold, and the amount of the capital
these men have invested in the enter
prise is certainly the guarantee of the
good faith of their claim. The state

that, whether or not it really has solved
the great problem of the times, the
company certainly believes that it has.
Parliament recently passed the road
locomotives act, which went into effect
