"The twenty-four hour system of keeping time has just become the of fciai standard in France said MT. Jules Lacori, of Paris, at Chamber lain's.
 @The twenty-feur hour clocks are al- ready an established institution in Russia. and I believe that their official sanction in our country will lead to the adoption of the system on French rail- roads. which would surely lead to the extension sf the plan throughout Italy, Switzerland and Spain. I should think, considering the manifest merits of the new way, the railways of the United States, which are the most progressive Tn the world, would soon take it up and have done with the ancient system, so confusing and misleading through the enforced use of a. m. and p. m. The twenty-four hour clock system is an ideal one for the railways, absolutely preventing all danger through the dup lication of hours for day and night. It is the coming system, and { look to gee it in operation in America in the near future. Washington Post

Big Contract for an American Company.

BE Contract for an American Company.
 After being carefully guarded for over two months it has leaked out that the tramway committee of the Glas- gow (Scotland) corporation has award ed the contract for tne supply and lay ing of the conduit for conveying the cable for Glasgow municipal tramways to the National Conduit and Cable company of America. The work of laying the pipe under American super vision has already begun, and some 800 navies are being employed. This con- duit contract is reported to be by far the most important one ever placed outside of England. Already 2.000, GOO feet of piping have been ordered, and it is said that the chances are that the entire requirements in this line will be tiled by the Americans, and that the eable-on the superior manufacture of which English manufacturers have long prided themselves-will also be ordered from the United States. The curious part of the conduit contract is that a lump sum has been agreed upon with the National company that will include the supply of pipes, the ex, eavation of the earth as we'll as the laying Of the pipe.
