The federation also asked an
investigation into the numerous
accident on railroads in the last.
five years, due to defective rails
by the U. S. Steel Corporation,
resulting in great loss of life and
property. 1t was declared that
these accidents were of daily oc-
,currence, and should be probed
by the government.
Investigation was ordered of
the proposal to build a garbage
reduction plant at the Bridewell,
which would keep the prisoners
employed and prevent them COM

broom and brickmaking indus

This investigation will also
take in the United States Reed
Fiber Co., of which Leslie M.
Shaw is president. The company
has contracts for convict labor in
-four states, including Illinois,
and is urging the advantage it
has over competition, as it OBJ
tains its labor for a small sum,
and the penitentiaries furnish
power and workshops free.
Delegates from the Stationary

egg frying by wireless, wireess tele-

trical phenomena, and also wonders OF
liquid air, were demonstrated in a
lecture by Professor L. III. Wood and
Henry L. Transform, an electrical ex-

The electrical discharges were seen
flashing in long specterlike streams,
which snapped and cracked like light
ming. BY changing the terminals, the
flashes resembled small electric foun-
tains. Mr. Transform, holding his hand
near one OF the terminals, received
into his body a current OF AT least S0o,-
600 volts without any injury.
A wonder to the audience was the
frying Of the egg without any visible
power. but there was heard the sir

ter, which was not connected with
the pan. Two hundred OF the audience
