THREE ATTEMPTS
MADE To WRECK
CARS ON D. & ".
Curve Near the Old DRIVING
Park on the East, Scene of
Daring Plot by Men Whose
Object Is Not Known.
SPIKES WERE PLACED
TO DERAIL THE CARS.
Owing to the Way in Which
They Were Encountered, No
Damage Was Done-Much
Excitement Created.

Three dastardly attempts were made
10 wreck Dayton and Western traction
cars Monday night at the curve near
the driving park east of town. Ordi-
nary railroad spikes We're placed i'll
such position on the rails at different
places near this point, that If the cars
had struck them squarely they would
have undoubtedly been wrecked and
probably several lives lost as all cars
were loaded with people AS the
spikes were placed on the rails on the
turn, the car struck them gIancingly
and it was thus that they were saved.
The Dayton aud Western car, which
arrives in this city at eight O'Clock.
was the victim of the wreckers' both
as il came into the city and as it re-
sumed its journey eastward. The
motorman did not see the spikes until
the car was directly upon them, eth
er time, owing to the darkness and
because of the fact that they looked
so much the color of the rails. The
jar and jolt was sufficient to apprise
him of the fact that something was
wrong and an examination revealed
the fact that the spikes had been plac-
ed on the tracks. He resumed his
trip into the city and reported the case
He encountered the same going out. al
though he ran slowly, and was look
ing for distractions. The limited be-
tween Dayton and Richmond came
around the turn at the driving park
shortly after. and while going at al
most top speed. also encountered the
distractions, but again the car struck
them glancingly.
After the motorman reported the at |
tempted wreck of the limited man
from this city was despatched to the |
scene to geep guard, while all motor
men were instructed to keep a close /
watch on the track and under no cir I
cumstances go around the curve at a /
high rate of speed.
The affair created considerable ex-i
element both among the street car
men and passengers. No clue has yet
been found as to the identity of the
wreckers.

 Aluminium, as you know, is a me- tallic element found in clay and is the same material of which rubies sap phires, emery apd alum are made It enters into the composition of a large number of other materials, and it is estimated forms about one-fifth of the crust of the earth. Every brick in every building is said to be thirty per cent aluminium. It is produced by the decomposition of clay, which mineralogists will tell you is salt composed of silicic acid combined with aluminium. The aluminium is separated from the silica by the ap- plioation of electricity Separation has never been successfully done in any other way. It is produced in this country only at New Kensington. Pa, Niagara Falls. N. r., East St Louis. Mo, Bauxlte, Ark. and Shaw enegan Falls, Quebec. It is also pro- duced in Scotland; Savoy, France: Neuhausen. switzerland; Baden.

stone. It then became necessary to Ind metallic cap for the apex which would be a perfect conductor of eIec- tricity. which would be the same color as the marble. which would not rust or stain or drip. They talked Of nickel, silver, copper, zinc and various plated metals, but there seemed to be obJec- tions to all of them, until General Ca- sey heard of a new metal called alum inium." Since that ~time the T" in the last syllable has been dropped out. Ordnance officers at the navy yard were experimenting with 1t for gun sights. It was believed to be especial 1y adapted for such purpose, because if was so light that the sight of a gun would not be dislocatei by the recoiI after 1t had been fired. The navy peo- pie got their material from a German chemist named Freschmuth, who had a little laboratory at Frankford, one of the suburbs of Philadelphia. He had learned to make 1t in Germany and was furnishing a little for experimental purposes to scientific men and model makers in PhilAIelL aia.
 General Davis says that General Ca sey sent him over to Frankfort to make inquiries about the new metal and find out if 1t would answer their purpose. He had great dl-Iculty in finding Freschmuth. who was living in W very humble way and in great poverty. Gen eral Davis foun0 1t necessary to ad- vance him the money to pay for getting aluminium out of the clay, and 1t was a long time before he got enough to answer the purpose. Finally a cast was made. and the little aluminium pyr- amid about nine inches high and five and a half inches -quare at the base was placed on tho tip of the monument. where 1t stiN remains. It has an- swered the purpose perfectly. It Is the exact color of the marble; 1t will not tarnish or oxidlze or rust and water dripping from 1t leaves no stain.
 DIsc0YeFeF Died In ObScuFIty.
 General Davis says he does not know what became of the old German chemist. but he is probably dead long ago. He was undoubtedly the first man to manufacture aluminium in this country, although he did it in a very small way and never made any money out of it. He probably died as he live ed-in poverty.
 few years later immense sums of money were being derived from It's manufacture under patents obtain ed by a man named Bradley. These patents were the subject of very lively litigation between a Cleveland company controlled by the family of Edwin Cowles and a Pittsburg sym dicate. The Cow1es company had their factory at Lockport, N Y. The Pittsburg company went to Niagara Falls. Tn 1903 the two interests com promised the litigation that had been going on for eleven years, the Pitts burg E-5action Company payin& thA

MUST GIVE PASSES
ruDGE EVANS GIVES A RATE BILL DECISION.
r,,,rteuiex Were Contracted For By LouisviIIe and Nashville Railroad Before Law Enacted By Com
 wreaa Went TmtO Effect.

NIouisville. Ky, Feb. 2--Judge Walter Evans, in the Federal Court, today DyerruIed the demurrer of the Louis- ville and Nashville Railroad Company, 10 the equity petition filed by Erasmus E. and Annie E. Motley, in which the latter sought to enforce contract by which the railroad company agreed to issue annual passes to each Of the plaintiffs during their lifetime.
 The court says that the act of June k9. 1906, known as the railroad rate eiil. under which the railroad company Seclined to issue the passes as agreed In January, 1907, should be construed precisely as if in it's general language, Ehere was an express exception exclud- ng from its operation, the complain Int's contract. In no other way can the rested contract rights of the com Slainants be preserved.
 The general tenor of the opinion is to Ihe effect that Congress did not intend 10 annul any previously made contract iounded upon good consideration. The kourt, says further. that the passes is- Iued the MoItleys. while called free passes" were not so any more than ticket bought and paid for. The demur- Ter of the railroad company, which was krgued by Colonel Henry LA Stone was Sased on the rebate law which pro- iibits the issuing of passes, the rail. load taking the position that this law knded their contract with the Mottleys.

ALUMINIUM ROMANCE
IT WAS FIRST USED TO. CAP THE
 WASHINGTON MONUMENT.
Discovered by a German Professor in 1927, It Was Regarded as Freak Metal Untll Used on the MOn-
 ument i'm 1884

Washington Correspondence Chicago
 Record Herald.
 The first practical use ever made of aluminium was in fitting cap on the peak of the, Washington monument in 1884. Although aluminium was discov- cred in 1927 by Prof. Wohler of the Gottingen University. Germany, at that time 1t was practically an unknown metal, the cost and difficulty of its pro- duction having prevented its develop lment until the general use of electric ity made 1t easy and economical
 The cap on the top of the monument Is square pyramid in shape, weighing 100 ounces and is S.9 inches in height and 5.6 inches in width at the base. General George D. Davis. now on the retired list and residing in Washing ton, was in immediate charge of the completion of the monument under General Casey, and has the distinction of being the first man to handle alum- mum in a practical way Until that time 1t had been used only for toys, for freak" purposes, and small samples had been utilized in making models for the Patent Office. In 1905. however, the production of aluminium was 11,s47. .OOO pounds valued at $3,246, 300; in 1904 the production was S,600,000 pounds, val eOA f1N |-fH'Af"NNs V HN NoNSl TUT I3Uo will be very much larger The devel- opment of the industry Is rapid J. R. Mckee of the General Electric Com pany told me the other day that they were now engaged in filing orders for 75,000-horse power machinery for the manufacture of aluminium. The Pitts burg Production Company, which now holds a monopoly of the manufacture of aluminium, has recently changed it's name to the Aluminum Company of America, and is controlled by the Hel, nns of Pittsburg. who operate pipe lines for oil to New York and Phila- delphia.
 Its Use On the Monument.
 General Davis says that when the monument was finished in December. 1884, the upper extremities of the four hollow wrought iron columns, which form the well in the shaft. support the elevator machinery and guide the car, were covered in by the marble apex. or pyramidion. Four copper rods, three quarters of an inch in diameter, were run. one from each column. to the ton stone,sand there united In copper rod one and one-hah inch in diameter, which passes vertically through tha
