To Prevent Eleetrolysis.

From the Philadelphia Record
The city of Baltimore has succeeded
in making arrangements with the
United Railways and Electric COM
pany in that city by which, ii is hoped,
the much dreaded electrolysis, which
destroys gas and water pipes, is to be
overcome, The agreement provides
that the city is to receive $500 annually
from the railway company for the
privilege of running a copper wire
nearly two inches thick through the
municipal subWays, 1t is expected that
this wire will take up the surplus cur
rent which has been escaping into the
ground and eating up the pipes and
send it back to the power house, there
by giving the company more power
and giving relief to the water and gas
companies, 1t win cost the railway
company about 10000 TO lay and bury
the wire, and II the calculations are
correct the gain viii be enormous, as it
is expected to save a large amount Of
electricity. Whether it will work Well
in practice and overcome the great
damage done by elecuolysis remains to
be seem Those interested i'm the plan,
however. profess to have great conf
dence in il, If ii should prove the sue
cess expected other cities will doubt
less adopt the plan.
