The C~onstantinople correspondent of
the Paris Figaro has sent to his paper
a telegram asserting that in one of his
interviews with the Grand Duke Nicho-

ceive the czar at Constantinople. The

Growth of Motive Power.

One Of the best Illustrations Of the
increase of manufacturing industry in
the United States is to be derived
from the growth of motive power. 1t
would be incredible if it were not
officially authenticated that the motive
power used in manufacturing in 1900
aggregated 11,300,0S1 horse power,
which is double that of 1890 and more
than treble that Of 1880. But the eff
cacy of the machinery driven has in
creased in equal degree, which in
effect upon output could be expressed
for purposes of comparison by the
further multiplication of this enor-
nous t~otal-Omaha Bee.
