The Electrical World sums up the
possibilities of the electrical storage
battery, in comparison with the petro-
leum motor, for automobiles as follows:
But even if we obtain twenty Watt
hours per pound of battery, this only
means the inherent theoretical poten-
TALLY of lifting its own weight ten
miles against sea-level gravietation. as
against lifting potential energy of g.
600 miles in petroleum, although the
petroleum motor secures but a small
percentage of this enormous potential
energy"

Continuation Of the Contest for the Police
Courts of Brooklyn.

New York, IAN. THE contest over
the possession of Inc police courts OF
Brooklyn was continued. The old
magistrates who were appointed dur
ing the term of Mayor Van Wyck,
maintained possession of two of the
courts under a truce whereby the
newly elected magistrates were To
await further legal decision as to the
constitutionality of the law under
which they were elected. In the Ad-
ans street court, However, scene was
created by an order from Walter l..
Durack. an elected magistrate, to the
police TO remove Edward j. Dooley, a
Van Wyck appointee, from the court
room. The police. acting under an
opinion of Corporation Counsel Rives,
recognized Durack as the legally elect
ed magistrate, and they forcibly eject
ed DOoley. A policeman advanced to
the bench and apologiZed to Dooley for
disturbing him, declaring that he was
only obeying orders. We'll" replied
Dooley, you must take the conse-
quences."
Two policemen then assembled to the
bench and each seized Dooley by an
arm, lifted him bodily from his chair.
AS soon as the chair was empty, Du-
rack sprang into il and declared the
court adjourned. Dooley, after his
forcible removal, went TO the office OF
his attorney.

TO GET LIGHT ON MERGERS
Meeting of the Interstate Commerce Com
mission at Chicago.

Chicago, Jan. What is expected
to be one of the most interesting ses-
sions of the interstate commerce COM
mission ever held began here when the
commissioners listened to testimony
concerning freight rates and alleged
discrimination in connection with
packing house products. The investl-
CATION was a continuation OF the one
begun last spring when Chicago ship
pers complained that Kansas City was
being favored by certain roads.
The commissioners will endeavor to
get some light on the effect Of recent
railroad mergers on the rate situate
1t is said that the inquiry into the
proposed combination Of the Northern
Pacific, Great Northern and the Chi
cago Burlington and Quincy is but
the forerunner OF an investigation
which will ultimately reach the South
ern and Union Pacific lines, the Penn
sylvania, the Baltimore and Ohio and
the Chesapeake and Ohio.

NATIONAL PROBE AT CHICAGO
Going to Poke Around Among the Schemes
of the Packers.

Chicago, Jan. members of the
interstate commerce commission gath
cred here yesterday prepared to begin
an investigation into the methods of
shipping packing-house products and
dressed beef, and also into the meth
DDS Of combinations among railroads.
They began work this morning. Pres
ent plans are to probe INTO the hand
ling of packing-house products for two
or three days, and then to take up the
more interesting matter of the results
of community of interests. United
States Marshal Ames has succeeded
in serving subpOenas on only two Of
the six packing house representatives
who were wanted.
The others are said to have fed at
the rumor of a summons, and have
since remained under cover. So far
as known there is no intention Of try
ing to get the master minds Of rail
road combinations before the commits
sion, which will try TO find out what
is done after a combine has been ef-
fected.

REEVES PLAYS FOR CLEMENCY
Former Auditor Testifies I'm Postal Fraud
Cases at Havana.

Havana. Jan. wv. II. Reeves,
former auditor, and one of the men
accused of postal frauds, testified in
the trial of Charles f. W. Nicely, Estes
G.. Rathbone and himself. His testi-
mony led to the belief that he was
trying to convict his fellow -defendants
in the hope Of clemency in his own
case. His evidence did not agree with
a statement he had previously made in
the court Of first instance, and he re-
fused to explain the discrepancies.
In spite of his evident prejudice,
Reeves evidence was regarded as bad
for Nicely and Rathbone. Nicely is the
most cool and collected man in the
case, but he is beginning to believe he
will be convicted, and he hopes, in that
event, he will be released by the Amer
lean authorities before they withdraw
from Cuba. Seniors Lanuza and Des-
vernine. who refused to act as attor-
peys for Rathbone when the judges
declined to delay the trial on Saturday,
appeared in court and resumed charge
of Rathbone's interests.
