A long list could be given of the establishments thus fitted up during the last twelve months. Another form of the use of electric current in large bulk, during 1895, has been its application to the arts of metallurgy and chemistry. Aside from the work in aluminium and carborundum at Niagara Falls, --which was already familiar on a smaller scale, --we see the production of calcium carbide in large quantities by means of electric current turned loose on a mixture of lime and coke. When water is brought into contact with the calcium carbide, we get the new acetylene gas which has such a brilliant flame and such an abominable odour, and with which, it is said, the whole business of gas making is to be revolutionised. This material is reported also to open up, for easy production, a long range of other good things in chemistry, and steps were taken last year to manufacture it in large quantities. In electro-metallurgy, further interesting developments were seen in the art of welding, and Mr. G. D. Burton came forward with a very plausible story about the reduction by electricity of precious ores combined with a liquid solution, so that the metals in the ore separate and run according to the different degrees of heat required, the metals being found at the bottom of the tank in shot globules. From this newer ground, where so much remains to be proved, let us get back to older territory where the facts are more commonplace, though the territory for occupation is equally illimitable. Electric lighting during 1895 cannot be said to have presented any very startling innovations, though various inventors, notably Nikola Tesla, Dr. M. Pupin and Mr. D. McF. Moore, brought to notice . . . This item ships from La Vergne,TN.

So far no data appear to have been made public concerning the oil consumption of the engine per ton or train mile, or the repairs or renewals or other operating expenses, but it is generally understood that the engine is now being put through a series of most rigorous tests by the railway authorities. Until this information is forthcoming it is impossible to offer any opinion as to the commercial future of the proposition. A new departure of this kind is bound to call forth a great deal of criticism and exception has been taken in some quarters to the necessity for having such a large auxiliary engine as the complement to the main driving engine, but if it be admitted that the Diesel engine as at present constructed requires a considerable amount of compressed air for reversing and manoeuvring, such air supply must be provided for somehow, and it would seem in every way better to use a separate engine than to work a series of pumps deriving their power from the axles. In any case this experimental engine may be regarded as an exceedingly interesting piece of mechanical engineering, and it is very fortunate that the constructors have been able to combine the expert knowledge of Messrs. Sulzers in Diesel engines with the latest practice of Messrs. Borsig as locomotive engineers, and to have had the assistance of Herr Klose and Dr. Diesel. THE HOURS OF LABOUR PROBLEM By T. Good AFTER more than twenty years of steady agitation among our trade unionists, the eight hours question is about to be raised as a practical issue, and the sooner both workmen and employers begin to consider its merits and demerits the better. In the engineering trades there is a more particular move for a reduced working week, and . . . This item ships from La Vergne,TN.
