Edison to Rebuild Burned Plant

/ Edison to Rebuild Burned Plant.
/ When the fire which swept the ten.
acre manufacturing plant of the
1 Thomas A. Edison companies at West
| Orange, n. j., was extinguished a hur-
ried inventory Of the damage revealed
that eleven of the eighteen buildings
had been destroyed. others had been
damaged, and that the loss would
reach s7OOO,OOO.
Seven thousand nen are employed
at the plant and half Of these, it is
estimated, will be out of work TEN.
porarily.
The entire force Of employees was
put to work removing the debris. I'm
der the active supervision of Mr.. Edi-
son himself they began tearing down
the concrete walls which had to be
removed, while the embers were cool
ing. Immediate steps to rebuild have
been taken.
At least one man perished in the
flames. This became known with the
finding Of a charred body in the ruins
of the film house where the explosion
occurred which started the blaze. Two
other men, both workmen, were re.
ported missing.
While the flames were blazing high
in the air, Edison, standing calmly
with hands in pockets, said:
Although l am more than sixty
seven years old, I'll start all over
again"
The fire began with an explosion in
the film finishing building in the CEN
ter of the plant. The large quantity
Of film in the building burned with al
most the rapidity of gunpowder. It's
highly combusuble nature made each
roll flash like a quick fuse Within a
few minutes the film building was de-
stroyed and the flames had spread to
surrounding structures, which also
were filed with highly infamable ma
terials.

The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1833-1916, 1914-07-12

II possible for us to exchange vocal
communication not only with the Hub
but with Baltimore and Washington
Now ". are ready for what DR.. Giuseppe
Musso has done.
According to an expert. "by the
Musso system II will be possible to tele
phone by an open wire to any distance.
and as no line of special construction
Is necessary, II will he possible % OBJ
tain connection from any point of a
continent to any other point upon IT,.
In other words, by the Musso system
telephone connections between New
York and San Francisco will not only
be feasible but likewise inexpensive. In
fact the actual wiring will require only
about one-quarter as much copper as
rs now demanded by prevailing equip
ments for long distance work, and there
will be no need Of loading coils such as
we have in some Of our underground
installations"
But striking as this difference is. Il
rather pales beside the still more Won
derful f1exibility OF DIR. Musso's inven-
| ton. VI is claimed for his installation
that the vocal transmission Is equally
good through the phantom" and
| through each of the two physical cir
cults.
Accordingly. with his modification,
such a line as is laid between here and
Boston would permit OF service upon
the two physical circuits as well as
upon the phantom" circuit simultane-
ously. This activity would be satisfac-
| tory for any of these lines working
independently and for substantially any
distance. That is to say. instead OF
having only one available circuit, and
that the phantom" one, by the Musso
system the New York-Boston under
ground telephone plant would be con
verted into one capable OF rendering a
threefold duty.
According to DR.. Musso. II Is not pos
sible by the common commercial system
| to telephone any considerable distance
If the wires are not of uniform size and
quality, or II the whole circuit con-
slsts partly of open wire and partly
of cable. But, in contrast, by the Mussc
system. It is claimed that It will be
feasible to telephone by cables and
open wires combined practically from
any point of the world to any Other
point upon the globe, even If the cable'
and open wires are OF different gaug,
and quality. The reason for this APP
parent anomaly IN telephone engineer
ing IS that the Musso speakinSwav'
is not appreciably affected by the
various sections of lines and cable
iJined together.
