Increase in German Trad.

A remarkable proof of the expansion
of German trade is furnished by the
traffic returns of the Suez Canal.
Twenty years ago the German share
of the canal traffic was per cent. of the
total tonnage. 1t is now IL per cent.
a large proportion of the trade being
with British possessions. Another
curious fact in connection with the
canal Is that the largest vessels pass
ing through are German. As long ago
as 1896 Germany took the lead in this
respect. The steamer Friedrich der
Crosse, of 10000 tons, went throush In
that year, paying dues amounting 10
1000 francs. Several German steam
ers of the same size are mentioned In
subsequent canal reports. and at the
present moment others are being built
for the regular service in China and
Japan. German owners paid 5000, cor
francs In canal dues In 1897.

Neatly and Quickly Cut by the Use Of
Electricity.
During the reconstruction OF an Of
ice building recently In Chicago an In
teresting use was made OF the electric
current In cutting in two cluster OF
half dozen heavy steel beams which
II was necessary TO remove. These
beams were of the ordinary | shape
and 10 inches deep. Owing to the DIFF
ficulty of getting ut the beams at the
places where they were to be cut, spe-
cial saws would have been required
had the beams been cut In the ordinary
way, and IL WAS estimated that the
work would take two men about
twelve days time and cost about 500.
Instead OF doing the work with hack
saws, method was adopted such as
scientific burglars Invented for getting
Into safe and vault doors of steel. A
current OF electricity was brought In
from the electric lighting wires In the
street TO do the work. The positive
terminal was attached TO the steel
framework OF the building, 10 which
the beams were rIveted. and the mega
tive wire was attached TO carbon
point one and a half inches In diameter.
which was provided with a wooden
handle TO enable the operator TO direct

they were 10 be cut. An asbestos shield
protected the operators body from the
heat and black spectacles protected his
eyes. In twelve hours the beams We're

about fiye-horse power In electric cur

binary workman.
