NEW INVENTION TESTED.
The Multiple Unit system of Electric
Control a Success.

SCHENECTADY, N. Y, Aug. H-General
Electric Company officials are showing the
working of the Sprague multiple unit sys-
tenn of car traction to Isaac d. Barton,
general manager, and c. B. Cornell, chief
engineer of the Brooklyn Elevated Rail-
road. The General Electric Company has
an experimental track for the third-track
system, and six cars belonging to the
South-side road of Chicago have been
equipped with the necessary apparatus and
are used for the tests. The cars are all
equipped with the new Sprague multiple
unit system of control by which any car
is operated from either end, and by a
lever or push button with automatic re-
turn something after the method of the
Sprague elevator BY it's application any
number of cars, without regard to sequence
or heading, may be coupled together, ana
when so coupled instantly controlled from
either end of the car The cars are individ-
ual in all details. The object is to so con-
troll them that they can be connected to-
gether at will and when connected OPP
Grated from either end of any car in the
train unit.
The controlling mechanism is carried on
five cars, inclosed underneath the seat in
side the car. In one ear it occupies the
unique position of the space inside the can
opy over the platform, where it can be
reached by an inspector without entering
the car. Underneath each car is small
cable terminating in a flexible end with
peculiar interlocking coupling, which. no
matter what the heading of the cars may
be, so connects the controlling circuits that
the directional movement of the controller
on the platform always produces the same
movement of the car with regard to the
track. There is, therefore, no such thing
as head or tail of the car. The estab-
lishment of the coupling takes less time
that the coupling of d single pipe in an
ordinary brake system. The tests made for
the Brooklyn gentlemen were unusually Sc
we're, but We're in every way satisfactory.
When they had watched the workings Of
the mechanism the train was tested on ac-
celerations II takes a Manhattan l. en-
CINE twenty-five seconds to get to going
at a rate Of fourteen miles an hour The
test train got up a speed of twenty-eight
miles an hour in ten seconds; thirty-eight
miles in fifteen seconds and forty-thrte
and one-haIf miles in twenty seconds. This
beats all previous records in this direction.

The friends of Hays had kept tabs and
knew he had been nominated. While the
clerks were counting up the vote they
surged about the stage, gave the Marion
Club yell and asked in tones of thunder,
What's the matter with Hays?" When
the vote was announced there was big
cheer and the crowd dragged Hays from
on their shoulders. Mr. Elliott was re-
ceived with applause when he. moved that
the nomination be made unanimous
STUBBS BY ACCLAMATION.
Chairman Taylor announced that the next
thing before the convention was the nomi-
nation of a candidate for judge of the Police
Cuort He was nearly deafened by loud
cries of "Stubbs Stubbs!' from all over
the hall. The great popularity of the ex-
police judge was never more clearly dem
onstrated. c. E. Thornton, of the Second
ward while the cheering for Stubs was at
it's height, was recognized, but it was two
or three minutes before he could be heard.
He moved that Mr.. Stubs be nominated by
reclamation. Gen. John Coburn could
scarcely be heard when he arose in the rear
of the hall to second Mr.. Thornton's mo-
ton.
hitting Judge Stubs by reclamation will
please stand.'' said Chairman Taylor Not

Mr. Stubs came forward with beaming
smile that communicated its good humor
to the entire convention. A few months
ago Mr.. Stubs had the misfortune 10
shoot himself in the left hand while hunt
ing. His hand had to be amputated. He
stood before the convention a moment hold
ing his cane under his empty left sleeve.
contemplating the friendly faces before
him.

That last sentence set the convention to
laughing and Mr.. Stubs given an
other ovation he resumed his seat.

There were loud calls for Harding, and
he made a brief speech. When the APP

said:

nomination of a candidate for city clerk

MIR. HARDING,s DIG MAJORITY.
Before the Twelfth Ward
Was Reached.

The reading of the platform was no soon
er finished than the mayoralty struggle
was on. The chair called for nominations
.by wards and Mr.. Harding's name was pre-
scented by Mr.. Horace Wood, of the Third
ward. and Mr.. Bookwalter's name by Mr..
A. NJ. Glossbrenner, of the Fourth ward.
Each side cheered its man and as the vote
was called by precincts there were cheers
as solid votes came in for one man or the
other. There was prolonged cheering when
the Fourth ward voted as a ward sixty
three votes for Bookwalter
Then arose the first noise of the con-
vention. The first precinct of the Fifth
ward was called. 1t was announced as 8
for Harding and for Bookwalter. 1t was
challenged and most of the convention be-
gan giving suggestions. The chairman cool
ly mauled the draped storebox until order
was restored and then ordered a poll of
the delegation. Il resulted in 3 for Book
walter and tor Harding. The polling pro-
ceeded without further incident further
than the lusty cheering of the cOntending
forces until the fifth precinct of the Sixth
was challenged. The challenge only verified

The race was fairly even until the Tenth
ward was struck. The Ninth had pulled
up the hopes of the BOokwsuter people. but
the Tenth showed up almost solid for Hard

that the nominating figure had already been

votes of the ballot, being those of the thir-

for him. No dark horses were sprung,
though the tenth precinct of the Third
ward cast two votes for d. NJ. Ransdeu.
The result of the ballot was as follows:

alternatives were separated. At this juno

had been the campaign preceding it. The
roll was then called by wards and the con-
vention showed its good humor by applaud

was crowded with delegates and spectators
while on the stage were numerous Republic

decide the matter. This ballot developed
the prettest kind of a "hoss race" and it

An echo of the past is called up
by an execution issued out of the
circuit court this week i'll the old
case of H. Denlinger,- treasurer of
Lincoln county, VS.. M. M. Davis.
The execution is for the costs in
the case amounting to $39. 80, and
is against H. Denlinger, Sr., the
plaintiff in the case. and against
whom the case was decided. This,
it will be remembered, was a case
brought by Mr.. Denlinger against
M. M. Davis, to recover the sum Of
81. Ioo, money of Lincoln county
deposited by him in the Yaquina
branch of the Hamilton, Job & Co.
bank, OF which Davis was manager.
The suit was finally decided against
Denlinger. H. Denlinger, Jr., the
attorney for his father IN the matter,
informs us that the execution will
not be satisfied without a legal
battle to determine whether or not
his father is responsible for the
costs.

An Arrest rIade.

Yesterday a warrant was sworn
out on Justice Halls court by c.
johnson, charging Fred McMurray
with the crime of entering his house
and robbing him of the sum of$2o on
July S, 1897. The warrant was
placed in Sheriff Lands hands,
and Deputy Sheriff Reeder was
sent to make the arrest. McMurray
was at the Tillotson logging camp
on POOLS slough, and submitted
quietly to the arrest when Deputy
Reeder read the warrant to him.
He was brought to Toledo and
taken before Squire Hail for ex-
animation. Upon the reading of
the complaint he entered a plea of
not guilty and waived his examina-
ton. He was held to await the
action of the grandju jury, the amount
of the bond being fixed at $500.
Up to the time of going to press
he had not been able to secure
bonds. Should he not be able to
furnish bonds today we understand
that Sheriff Lands will take him to
Corvallis tom orrow and place him
in the Benton county jail for safe
keeping.
This is the outcome of the robbery
that was committed in Toledo on
the morning of the 5th of July
when a masked robber entered c.
Johnson's house in this place and
relieved him of the sum of $40.
The Sheriff and his deputy has
been at work diligently on the case
since the robbery occurred, and the
arrest of young McMurray is the
result of their investigations.
Today Jas. Patterson was placed
under 500 bonds to appear as a
witness to the grand jury in the
case. What the state has in the
way of testimony, of course the
officials refuse to divulge further
than that they are satisfied that
they have good case. There is
much talk concerning the evidence
found in the case but whether it
will materialize before the grand
jury or not only time will tell.
