amount of money spent by the drinking
people must be very large.
An average bar-room will do about $3.50
gross business per week. This gives
about SIS per day for each. Multiply
this by 800, the number of bars in the
city, and it is seen that about Sl2.SoO is

HOW IT OPERATES.
The accompanying cuts give very
good idea of how the system operates.
This, in common with other under
ground trolley systems, has the advan-
tagc of having a return conductor TO
carry the current back to the power
house and thus prevents eiecrrolysis and
danser TO life by falling trolley wires. but
this system has u great advantage over
other systems ht reason of its economy
and simplicity III construction and the
perfection OF its Insulation. Only one
conduit is used instead of two, and be-
ing placed between the tracks and hav-
ing two slots. it answers for both tracks.
The trolley is d marvel of simplicity and
consists of two nalleable iron shoes Sid
ing upon wrought-iron steam pipes of
about an inch in diameter, thus giving
greater contact surface than is possible
by a trolley wheel.
INSULATED SUPPORTS.
The conductors are supported at inter-
walls of nine feet by thoroughly insulated
supports, which are capable Of sustaining
ten times the weight of the pipe. and
