New York commercial ADVERTISER
Vasili Pavlovitch Pervenko. a well-known
Russian engineer and inventor, is in this
city now on a mission that is partially
connected with a general movement look
ing to the establishment of closer COM
mercial relations between his native coun-
try and the United States. M. Pervenko
built. in 1892, in Kieff, the ancient capital
OF the empire, the first electric railway
system constructed in Russia. He has OBJ
tanned a patent in this country for what
Russian electricians and railroad men have
declared to be a most valuable improve
ment on the trolley system. and he has
come here in connection will this scheme
as we'll as to investigate certain branches
OF American trade.
NJ. Pervenko was seen at the office OF leo
Nobokof. a Russian. interested in the pro-
motion of Russo-American NJ.
Nobokoff's office Is on the same floor as the
Russian consulate. at II State street.
Speaking of American methods regarding
foreign markets, M. Pervenko said:
There seems TO be a peculiar discrep-
ancy between American alertness in every
branch of human effort they take up and
their singular Incidence in pushing their
goods abroad. The Germans keep an army
OF commercial travellers in Russia. while
you leave our market TO chance, as il We're.
The result is that Russian dealers patron
ize Berlin in many instances. where they
could get their goods cheaper and to better
satisfaction IN New York"

RfynI Gns Companies.

A case involving an interesting fight for
supremacy between rival gas companies of
Gas City, Ind, was appealed to the Sp-
preme Court yesterday from the Grant Cir
cult Court. The title of the cause is the
Citizens Gas Company against John L.
Thompson, the Peoples Gas Company, By
ron S. Jackson and George III. Jackson.
The main facts are that the Citizens COM
pany obtained In July, 1892. a franchise to
supply the people OF Gas City with artificial
gas and that 1t has been carrying out its
duties under the franchise ever since that
time; that the Peoples Gas Company was
granted a similar franchise at a later date
and began TO put down its mains. The Citi-
zens' company sued for $4,000 damages and
an injunction to prevent the Peoples CONS;
pany from laying it's mains above those
of the Citizens company. The latter COM
pany lost in the lower court, and hence
took an appeal.

tary Taylor to-day telegraphed the immi-
