teresting to note that the cables on
this transmission line are Of alumni
NUN, the popular, white and dur
able metal that is so largely enter
ing into the manufacture Of articles
used in every household. The
aluminium in the cables was manu-
factured at Niagara Falls in a fac
tory operated by electric current
generated by the same dynamos
that will furnish the current for
transmission purposes, and after be-
ing drawn into wire was bound into
cable form, 81 wires to each cable,
ard strung on the poles for trans
mission purposes. The cables on
the old pole line have 19 wires or
strands, and they are of smaller cir
cumference than the new aluminium
cables.
Aluminium is 50 much lighter
than copper that the comparative
lightness of the cables makes it pos
sible to place the poles Of tfc INV
transmission line farther apart than
the poles of the o!d line, which
makes the construction more eco
nomical, while it is fully as strong
and able withstand the strain from
all causes.
The present voltage at which Nj
agara power is transmitted to But
falo is IL 900 volts, but as soon as
the new line is completed, which,
as stated, will be within a few
weeks, the voltage on both Of the
transmission lines will be raised to
%, 900. The significance Of this il
that where Is 900 horse power could
be transmitted over the lines at q
voltage Of 1000, under voltage
Of $4,000 the amount Of power
transmitted would be 10000.

copper cables, each having Is
strands, were strung, forming one
three phase transmission system
Later the cable outfit was duplicat-
ed, and now there are six copper
cables on the line. Since the in
fluence Of the Niagara electric cur
rent was felt for the first time in
Buffalo, the city has made wonder
ful strides in its adoption, and it
has crept into various plants until
to-day it is used to the extent Of
several thousand horse power.
A new line is now very nearly
completed, and within few weeks
the cable it carries will be conduc-
tors Of more electricity between the
Falls and Buffalo.

An Aluminum Transmission Line From
Niagara Falls.

BY the time the Pan-American
Exposition opens, Buffalo will be
connected with Niagara Falls by
two power transmission pole lines,
over which the subtle current will
flow ia abundance. Then there
will be three sets Of cables, or three
three phase systems, nine cables in
all, over which Buffalo will get a
supply Of current, not only for the
various manufacturing purposes,
but also foi the Exposition.
For some years the Niagara Falls
Power Company has had trans

terminal station located on Niagara

the biggest log Oregon could sup
