PENNY-IN-THE-SLOT ELECTRICITY
London Companies VIII Attempt to
Increase the Use Of Incandescent
fUl

AS gas has been supplied to tens Of thou
sands OF consumers in London by means OF
penny-fn-the-slot machines ii is now pro
posed to provide the electric lighting by sim
liar apparatus. Several methods have al
ready been devised to which penny-in-the-sJot
machinery is attached and some of these
have been introduced into the St Pancras
district, among other places. Indeed, syndi-
Gates and companies have been formed with
the object Of introducing the use OF such ma
chimes on a large scale The promoters Of
these enterprises. in some instances as sub
contractors with electric lighting CORPORA
tions, bind themselves to use certain Guan-
tity Of electric units at so much per round
figure. They, IN consideration therefor put
up meters and fittings in the consumers
premises free Of cost. and repay themselves
by a little added charge on consumption
through penny-in-the-slot machines
One OF these London companies undertakes
to supply the electric light TO an eight-candle
power incandescent lamp for six hours on
penny being dropped into the box. Nay,
more. the consumer may switch off or on his
light just as It is required, for II It is not
burning the meter does not register against
him. He could, for instance burn It an hour
day for six consecutive days until he had
his ful penny's worth OF electricity. Varie-
ties Of these machines are SO made that they
can be fed with thirtysix pennies dropped in
one after another, with the result that the
meter will work until the value of that
amount has been recorded usual OF
course, the consumer can repeat the putting
a penny In the slot process Just as often as
he wishes to secure an addition or a continu-
Gus supply.
The argument In favor OF the introduction
Of these machines IS that electricity may be
brought within the reach Of everybody, and
that. commercially. they are the right thing
as there can be no bad debts from unsolicited
bills. and the trifing extra expense to the
consumer Is not felt, as the mode OF paying
best suits ais pocket. 1t is estimated that
there are nearly 100000 gas meters in use in
the metropolis and the argument is that
cheap electricity ought to be come still more
popular among the masses

SAN FRANCISCO March 17.-Alfred
EllinghOuse and his associates. who
had arranged for a boxing entertain

morrow night, were greatly disappoint-
ed when they learned that the resolu-

health and police committee Just be-

supervisors. The health and police COM

agreed to report favOra bly, upon the
petition for a permit, and a resolution
providing for the permit had been pre-
pared, but the committee withdrew the
resolution granting the permit because
1T claimed to have been deceived as to
the character Of the proposed enter

of the pavilion entertainment, who had
heard of the action of the health and

changed hands, many having offered long
odds on Corbett during the past few days.
Returns were received at William Carroll
and there was scarcely breathing room in his
large billiard room. Just after the reader
had finished reading the sixth round a report
came in that F!tzsimmons had foored his
man in the fourteenth round, but many pro-
nounced it a fake, and number of bets were
made that the report was not correct Later
returns, however, proved its authenticity.

FOR DUNKARD BUSINESS.
Both the Big Lines Are Out
for 1t,

There appears to be a lively contest on in
railroad circles to secure the big lot of Dunk
ard colonists who will come up into Mime
sofa the coming month to settle The colony
will foot up nearly 1000 people. The North
ern Pacific and Great Northern land depart
ments are figuring on having the Dunkards
settle along their respective lines, and ara
offering inducements to the families to accept
their terms.
The contest also wages among the Chicago,
St Paul lines for the haul from the South to
this city. 1t has been generally understood
that the Wisconsin Central and the Greai
Western would get the haul between them
in order to even up the percentages Of tho
lines. but 1t was said yesterday that the
other lines were making bids for the business
and that a slash in rates was likely to fol-
low.
