NEW LAMP SAVES CURRENT
Development Considered Most lmpor- tant Since Edison Incandescent
 Discovery in Early sos.

Schnectady, July 19.-The General Electric Co. has announced another important development in electric lighting in the form of new incandes- cent lamp, which consumes only half as much current per candle power as the present lamp.
 The new lamp contains specially shaped Tungsten filiaments and is filled with an inert gas, such as nitro gen, at a pressure of about the same as the atmosphere.
 This is, perhaps, the most important improvement in electric lighting since Thomas A. Edison developed the in- candescent lamp in the early 'S0s About six years ago the Tungsten metal filiament lamp was produced, which reduced the consumption of energy from three to nearly one watt per candle power. The new lamp cuts this in half.
