Electrical Towing.

1t is proposed to introduce electri-
cal towing on the New York state ca
nails. Aside from all questions of the
advisability of retaining the canals as
a means of transportation, it has been
shown abroad that electrical towing
of barges is not only practical but
economical. The speed can be a 5 great
as the safety of the canal will permit,
and there is less wash caused by this
method Of propulsion than by the use
of self-propelling boats. There are
several ways in which electrical tow
ing may be applied. In one an electIi-
cally operated traction engine runs
upon the towpath, draws its supply
from overhead lines. A light railwl5
may be laid down along the path for
suitable motor vehicle to travel upon.
There are several systems using this
method some of which have but a sin
gle rail. The elevated system proposed
for the New York canals may be APP
piled several ways. In that which has
found the greatest favor abroad, the
towing motor is suspended from and
travels along an overhead cable. The
problem of supplying power to the
towing motor is not different from that
presented by light country trolley, al
though the length of the canals will
make high potential distribution neces-
sary.-Electrical Review.
