ELECTR|| TRACTION
RUBBIA.
Two other ambitious schames for electrio tmotion on a large scale have recently been brought before the Electrotechnical Associa tion of St. Petenburg
The first is no less than the electrification of the Trans-Sibe- rian Railway Froject considered by Count A. F. Lubienski not only
desiɑable, but necessary. The transporta- tion of passengers and goods on this railway has developed to such an extent that it will soon become necessary to increase the num- ber of trains, which at the present time amount to forty or fifty per day. Owing to several circumstances, particularly the light- ness of the valli and insufficiency of water, the existing trains are said to have reached their practical limit of spoed; and though the water dificulty might be met by cana- lisation or other means, the relaying of the
track would entail an enormous expendi-
ture of money and time. The Count main-
aina that the most rational and economical
way of meeting the case is by the introduc- tion of slectric traction on some parts of the
M. J. CONNELL, line at least. The existing track would be

It must be evident, we think, to the most sanguine of engineers that the scheme outlined above, even if possible, could not be realised in time to meet the present traffic difficulties, though it appears to have been seriously consider- ed as a desirable alternative to the relaying of the trick.

with little difficulty. As to the constructing a line bong the rocky coast of the Black Sea, the speaker adduced figures showing the cost of the Italian Leceo-San- drio-Chiavenna electric railway Vladikavkase steam railway. He ted that the establishment of central stations and substations equipped with plant for producing three-phase current at 30,000 volts would entail an expense
of £1,000,000. above the cost of steam service. On the other hand, with the working expense of the electric service the same amount of passengers and goods Carried would show an annual saving of £800 per mile as compared with steam. It is also claimed that, as the electric service
would admit of heavier gradients, the con- struction of the
way, would be cheapened After

THE SMOKE NUISANCE,
The annual report of the chief officer of the Public Control Department of the Lon--" don County Council contains a reference to
a subject which is of some interest to
engineers and manufacturers—namely, the
CARBONIO ACTD

ALWAYS IN STOCK AT MODERATE PRICES.
THE CHINA MAIL. Intimations.
question of smoke nuisance. It appears Special Arrangements for Season-Contracts.
that the efforts, to control the smoke
nuisance in London have been continued 'during the year, and some factories have been prosecuted; but the chief officer ssys, "it is still true that the great bulk
which
of the smoke nuisance comes from the household grate, over there is no control. The manufacturer his so long borne the blame, and paid penalties for smoke nuisance, that it is estisfactory to notice some steps are being taken to shift the burden. The report continues :-'In 1837 an abortive attempt was made in the House of Lords to bring -domestic sinoke under Legislative control. Little more appears to have been done until last year, when the Coal-Smoke- Abatement Society carried out some tests at Westminister in rooms lent by His Majesty's Commissioner of Works. Only a few grates were tested but some of them largely reduced the smoke, and the society was so strongly convinced of the utility of these teats that it memorialised the Council to carry on the work on a more extensive scale. Since the receipt of this memorial the Smoke Abatement Society has itself carried out a further series of tests of domestic grates with satisfactory results, and the Public Control Committee will shortly have the whole question of domestic smoke under con sideration in order to see whether further measures can usefully be taken.' With rogard to the words in italics, there is ono matter which the Committee may consider inmediately. They may consider whether the phrase 'domestic smoke' has not been given too wide an intorpretation by those whose duty it is to institute proceedings. In the case of M Nair . Baker (20 T. L. R., 93), which was
decided at the end of 1903, the question arose whether a West End club could bo prosecuted under the Acts now in force. The club in question consisted of 750 mem- bers, and occupied a house with the usual club accommodation, where meals were cooked for the use of members, and where there was a furnace and boiler for heating the premises. Besidos the servants' bedrooms there were five bedrooms for the use of members. The smoke from the cooking-ranges and the heating- furnace passed up one chimney. This chimney having sent forth black smoke in such quantities as to be a nuisance, pro- ceedings were instituted. It was decided that the house was not a "private dwelling- houso' within the meaning of Section 24 (b) of the Public Health (London) Act, 1891, and that an offence against the section had been committed. Having regard to this case, it is possible that there are quite a large number of buildings and establish. ments in London which are treated by the authorition as domestic,' but which might easily be brought within reach of the penal provisions of the Public Health Act. -- Engineering.

Bird is a left hand bowler, who is at times somewhat erratic. Nevertheless he delivers some excellent balls on both sides of the wicket. He has shown form at the nets of late and may come off against Shanghai.
Airy is a good length bowler, and keeps his pace and length well. He brings the ball sharply over his head and gives it a twist as it leaves bis hand. That concludes the bowling section of the team, but at a pinch H. Hancock could take a turn with the ball. In batting the team is strong, Heath, R. Hancock and Lumsden being the pick. Unfortunately both Heath und Lumsden have injured hands just now and it is possi ble that Heath may be an absentee to morrow. Should that be so his loss will be folt.

There being no questions the Chairman moved the adoption of the balance sheet and directors' report, which stated that the profit for the year (including $3,029.99 brought forward from last account) after providing for bad debts, Directors' and Auditor's fees, and other charges, amounted to $34,780.77. It tec ammended that the disposal of this sum be dealt with at an Extraordinary General Meeting of the Company to be held immediately after the Ordinary Meeting, when the directors would lay a scheme of capitalization before the shareholders present.

Mr G. H. Potts moved an addition in the directors' fees from $1500 to $2500 per annuni. He considered that now that the Company had come Binto prosperous times they should make some recognition of the directors' services. Mr Underwood seconded the motion and it was carried. The chairman an behalf of the directora thanked the meeting for the increase in the emoluments and said that the business of the company would continue to command their best endeavours.
At 3.16 a second meeting was held to pass the following resolutions.
(1.) That the following be added to the Articles of Association":-
Article XVII paragraph 14 The Dire etors may from time to time, with the sanction of the Company in general meet ing, declare a bonus or dividend to be paid to the membera in proportion to their shares out of the reservo fund or out of any other accumulated profits for the time being of the Company, and with the like consent may also declare that such bouns or divid- end may be appropriated in payment of any call upon new shares to be allotted to the Fexisting Shareholders upon any duly Authorized incresas of Capital, (2.) That the Capital of the Company be increased by the sum of $112,500, divided into 15,000 shares of $7,50 each and that the Directors be authorized to allot such shares pro rata among the existing Shareholders according to the number of shares for which they may on the 10th day of November, 1904 be registered in the proportion of three new shares for every complete two shares held
them on that date.
The Chairman said—Gentlemen' :-- This extraordinary meeting, has been called for the purpose of obtaining your sanotion to Increase our Gapural, and as we propose to capitalize our Reserve Fund we were advised by the Company's Solicitors that our Articles of Association did not give w the power to do so, hence the remaọn för
