IMPROVING THE Qt'ADItrrLEX.
"U owurred to me after arriving at an
undemanding of the condition * Involved that
the only her e for a sex'uplex was to
ftr t Ri't n quadruplet which would b ?
operative under the conditions of practical
awvlce. jet on n glv i pn'.ential would have
Um panic margin * ai thektlnglp wire and
polar dujilex syntem. This re ult I attained
by drvlilng a quadruple ! ryBtum w-tilcb
would operate upon n single iKitentuil without
rtivislon of thp current at each nd of the
Hue. Hy tbln mean * I have ben able to
oncrate a quadruplex , other things being
. on less than two-third * of the current
required by in ? old quadruplex system , and
to g ' nn the polar side a margin equivalent
to thp entire current strength , while on the
neutral sldo I get the same margin as would
result from the same current on an ordinary
Ingle wire , anil at the Bame time to reducs
the 'Idcl : ' or tendency to Interference 60
| ier cent.
"As a matter of fact one-third of the cur
rent In the quadruplex systems In use Is
entirely wasted. In my quadruplet there Is
no waste of current. Hence 1 am enabled tc
utilize the current , which In the old
quadruplex KyKoms IE wanted , to ( tend an
additional measape each way. My quadru-
| ) lex system bos been fully demonstrated to
be operative * upco lines more than 1.000
miles In length , a Hne 1,300 miles long ) hav
ing been worked quadruplex without Inter
ference. This line was a loop over eeparate
nole lines from Boston to Buffalo , back to
Boston , from Boston to New Haven and back
to Boston again , a total distance of more
than 1.300 miles.
"By takiog the potential required to
operate my quadruplex over this extreme
length of wire nnd dividing It , so ns to get
t-o strength * of current in the line. I have
been able to operate a Bextuplcx satis
factorily over lines between 300 und 400 milt *
In length , and to demonstrate that , with
properly constructed and proportioned in-
strumetits. I can operate a line sextuple :
on the same potential over about one-third
the distance covered by my quadruples.
"I am entirely satisfied from my experi
ments that my sextuplex will prove to be
operative over substantially all linis now
operated an quudruplexos , and that mj
quadruplex will proveto be operative over
all lines now restricted to duplex working.
A great advantage must result from workinp
many long lines quadruplex without th :
necessity of repeaters la the circuit. Re
peaters 'involve complication , delay and preal
expense. With my system lines bctweer
New York nnd Chicago can bo operate ;
quadruplex direct , ana . .by Interposing re
peaters may b ? operated sestuplex. Thp con
clusion resulting from facts thus for demon
strated is that the sulistltution by m\
emadruplcx cud Eextuplex , systems for thi
duplex anil quadruplex circuits now operatet
will double the carrying capacity of thi
wires Involved. "
ADVANCING AMERICAN SKILL. '
The London underground electric railway
which has found it advantageous to conn
to the t'nlted ' States for an equipment , li
laid in two deep tunnels , eighty-five fee
below the surface. JVt rpcsent the lengt ]
of single track is tc'lrteeu nnd a half miles
but the system will be extended. The cur
rent is taken from a third rail. There wil
be thirty-five locomotives each haulliu
fieven care seating 33G persons. At thi
stations forty-nine high speed electric ele
vatore of American design and make wll
ba installed each able to carry 100 passen
gere per trip at a speed of 'iSO feet pe :
minute. The fare will be four cents am
the entimate of passengers fc ? 48.000,000 pe
annum. The American electrical apparatu
has been found essential In this enterprlsi
and Is a great triumph for this country.
EXTENDING THE SYSTEM.
The important announcement is made b'
the New York , New Haven nnd Hartfori
railroad that In consequence of the eflicleu
aud economical results of electric traction
they have in contemplation the npplicatloi
of electric power to npveral branch lines o
their system. The statement is , the outconi
of the 'Nantnsket Beach equipment , whlcl
has been in successful operation for tw
years. This line is n branch of the rail
road named , aeven miles long , all doubl
track. The cars are operated from an over
bend trolley wire , buspended from post
placed between the trades. The motor car
are provided with powerful motors , and th
trains weigh Blxty-two tons when empty niii
rfevpnty-fieven tons when loaded. The regu
iar schedule calls for an average pe d n
eighteen miles an hour , Including fourtcr :
Btops. The maximum speed during thi
Hcrvice. which , with It * extension , extend
over ten nnd one-half miles , is forty mile
nn hour. An actual measured speed of oev
enty miles on hour Is cald to have bee-
attained. The operation of this line ha
been intently watched by steam road oj
ficinlB , many of whom are convinced tha
they will have to rely upon electricity fo
the solution of many problems in heav
traction work , the construction of whlc
can not much longer be deferred. It ma
lie. r.tnted that this eruclrul iswue will b
further and powerfully Influunced by de
volopmentB of o radical nature which ar
now in progress.

and labors of three German hidtnrlaM whOM

living last year Von Sybel. I5rn Curtlui
and Helnrich von Treiwchks.
I'evv uamffi , writes the wunttce. could IH
admitted in the same rank where tbelri
stood amorg contemporary writer * of history
and It Is a singular fact that all three ahoulc
liave * died within fie nhort a time of one an
other. and that with them the old choo
of history writing came to lt end In Ger
many. The new. under Prof Lamprecht. Ii
of another sort. It IE genetic , and take
account of the tremendous importance of thi
Iwople , In the Bteady , omnipotent , uninter-
ruptablo power that makes for evolution ir
tome and common laws. The style whlct
Sybel and Treltschke still used Is aristocratic
Ijreathing of the boudoir , the council cham
ber aud the library. Individuals are gos-
Biped about almost exclusively , with everj
powlble air of dignity , of eloquence or o
robust common eccne. to be sure ; but stU'
if taken for granted. It was they and thi
battles they brought on. or the councl'-s thej
presided over , or the actions they set 01
foot , which were the important agents o ]
events.
Hut while all three authors were pre-
omlnently descriptive historians , in tem
perament. they were altogether different , and
contequen-tly the- tone and pitch of their
writings are various. I'rof. von Sybel np-
puars in his books a matter-of-fact , plain ,
moderate and widely gifted man , somewhat
like Horace Greeley. Hcrr von Troitschke
on the contrary , outdoes every historian wt
know of 4n partisan paitslonatcneds ; while
Prof. Ernst Curtlus , the -tutor - oaccof thi
Crown Prince Frledrlch William ( afterwc.rt
Emperor Frederick III. ) excels In a rcfluec
lucidity of insight , sentiment and leisured
manner of expression , which suit admirably
the classic themes to which his pen wat >
dedicated. All three , finally , to fittish thi
ret ord of these general resemblances , were
professors ) nt the University of Berlin , with
out possossitig , however , any of the oxcluslvi
love and but few of the habits of clolsterctl
walls and the midnight oil. All three ,
furthermore , wer ; 'intimate with ths countries
and familiar with the people they wrote
about or with such peoples' descendants ,
Ard. finally , all three , were of respectable 01
distinguished birth.
PROF. CURTIU3.
The eldest of the trio. I'rof. "Ern t Curtlus
like Goethe , was the son of a patriciai
family , and. like Goethe , was endowed fron
youth to old nee with wealth and persona
beauty. In his old age he seldom ehowei
much animation ; and ns this period of hli
life covered , in his case , a great man :
years , Inasmuch ns he lived to be 82 , sod' '
of my readers , perhaps who may have seel
him in Berlin may have formed a notioi
of his having been a silent and retired rnai
by nature. If you spoke to him he gnv <
you lib response , but went on brooding fo
himself , till you were about relinquiahlni
the hope of an answer , when , at last , aftc
a very long Interval indeed , it finally came
It Is thought that his silence in rcspec
of antagonistic views on the part of othe
archtologu-'ts was the cauoe of deeper enmlt ;
than the sharpi-st rebuttal could hav <
brought forth. His air , both in life nm
in letters , was that of nn nlwobed , infallibl
man , and infitllled offense. His drift o
mind had been turned , early in life , b ;
August Becky , Welcker and Ottfried Mulle :
away from pedantic engrcssment in th
words of classic texts to their living spirit
and that drift became a current which noth
ing , not even the genially of Lachman :
and Lachmann'e many prosperous and vie
torlous dlscipli . could turn aside for nn iu
want They housed together , these Lacb
rnaunltes and Curtius. and Curtius bean
and read himself attacked , sharply and in
ccssantly ; be went on his quiet way , wrappe
In the comfortable self-asuurance that nc
body knew Greece , and all things pertainln
thereto , ns he himself did.
In Greece he had lived , ns I wish It nai
been the privilege of our own Prof. Gil
dersleeve. for many years , while still in th
flush of impressible youth : first with Ott
fried Muller , his teacher , and then by him
Bell. His curliest Important work was
geographical historical study of the penin
c.ula of Peloponnesus , with which to his ow :
mind there was somehow no coming to a :
end. It was largely an endeavor to sho\
the connection between the topography c
the country and its peculiar history , an ca
deavor which was not originally an incep
tion of Curtlus's , but which turned out skill
fully performed. Curtius , as we apprehend
is denounced chiefly by the specialists. H
wes a constant reproof to them in etill beln ;
un all-round man , an archeologist , phllolo
glnt topographlst and social historian in one
PROF. VON SYBEL.
As for Prof , von Sybel , he was of the nel !
restricting school of Ranki' the clevcres
writer , perhaps , that has grown out of tha
school. To him the official , visible , worUln
departments of the government compose th
state , and in hl cyeb the things which th
state accomplishes compose the data b
which a given epoch of time it to be rncac
ured for ite relative value In the histor
of civilization. In order to arrive at a know :
edge of these achievements , documentary ev
dence is to be resorted to. he believes , an
documentary evidence exclusively. Wher
there Is no parchment to confirm a thlfJi
the thirg is not. In short. Sybel was a
arcblve-worm. The latter part of his 111
was Hpent among the archives of the Prussia
state , and much emphasis he ; been laid upo
the fact , in order to Impose hi * represent !
tlon of events as authoritative and filial. Ft
ray part , It seemis to me to have become
duty of writers who retain their commo
sense In the face of no matter what ukaaei
whether from ncholare or opinion , to thrui
in n warning to young students against a te
complete faith In the documentary method I
wrlt'ng hif-tory. Archives are not nil mai
aged honestly at all times. The directors ni
learned , but unfree gentlemen , us the at
ecdntes prove which go the rounds of courl
circles. Only Inat winter a prince of tl
royal house died , tor instance , whereuuo
his correspondence was transferred In
megE , as is usual , within n sealed basket , t
the head director of the archives , "for th
purpose of being Bitted. " Iu this procea
certain papers got into the hands of edille
member * of the court , but not into th
archival Kamroer. I remember readln
something similar in an article , some year
ago , of the Saturday Review , in respect c
a portion of the British archives. For al
the plain man knows , precisely as much o
a > little pete into these temple * wher
Ranke and like historians expect us to war
Bhip as within a shricie ut truth , as InfluenitP
person * may rboasp to decide. To swear b
archival document * , therefore. Is to BWCU
sometimes by foxes nnd jackals , which I
to say by wary t talesmen and courtl >
obedient lord directors. Men there must b
at < he head a ! affairs 'of Btate who are to
elpvsr to let certain matters got upon pape
at all. or , at any rate , accounts of them a
they actually o curred. If the wording o
DUmurck'K king's reply to the French ambar
aailor ir. 1870 cannot lie proved t * yon
Oi'i'.nt and contradiction by the so-muc
upl-lauded archival documentary method , boi

CHARACTERISTICS OP HIS WORK.
Sybel can. at any rate , be relied ou not t

given an. ovation , with red liquor on thi
side. Nothing can 5 > e worse for a com-
munlty than the mixing of firewater , fire
arms and Indians.
HECEITION OF TIIE GHE1UFF.
The outlaws heard of the coming of the
red sheriff , and arranges a reception for
him.
him.They had their hiding place in n narrow
canyon , that pinched out at the top so that
a horseman could rldo so far and no farther.
The trail to tlit. canyon led over a swoer
of barren rock , so that it wa difficult u
follow. lut now , being anxious to have tht
Indians find them , the bandits rode down
the canyon to the valley , turned and came
back again , making a new , pla'ln trail. Then ,
caryying tiitir horses and other chattels out
over the bliud trail , they established them
selves at a point above the old camp and
beyond wheru the canyon walls came to
gether.
The Indians soon ( found the trail , and
flushed with firewater , they pave chase. Ir
a few hours , and much sooner than thej
expected , they came upon the old camp , and
before they could raise their rifles the out
laws were pouring lead into them from thi
crags above.
Three or four of the Indians fell at thi
first fire , and what added to the horror of tht
situation was that they were unable to re
turn the fire , PO completely were the outlawi
hidden in the jagged rock. Panic stricken ,
the Indians dashed down the canyon , but the
bandits continued to shower the lead aftei
them. The. leader and two more of his mer
fell io the retreat , and that was the lasl
time the Indians of Utah undertook to arrest
the bandits.
It was shortly after this fight that the rail
road was opened , and the gang determined
to enter upon the more romantic business
of train robbing.
The first two or three attempts madt
by the Utah gang to hold up the midnight
express had resulted to their embarrassment
Once the air had failed to work , and at
another time a desperate cowboy , who hap
pened to be among the passengers , disputed
the territory , and put the band to flight. An
other such water haul would bring about the
leader's Impeachment , aud that distinguished
individual determined to reestablish himsell
in the confidence and esteem of his com-
paoinns.
Solitude , about as desolate a spot as there
is on the American continent , was selected
as the proper place to rob the train.
AMATEURS WITH SIGNALS.

off in the detort , turned half ove.r on her

to death. Jlnloopy. thrown through the cab
window , floundered in the adobe mud for a
few seconds and was on hl feet again So
wall had he performed his duty that all the
cars except the mail , express and smoker , re
mained upon therail. . The express rnr wns
what the robbers wanted , but It was driven
high upon the mail car , which wns re-ting
on the tall of the tank. Malony , boiling
with rage , felt for hlF book of rules U
was there all right , but there was no light
to read by , and like enough therp was no
rule to cover urgent emergencies , such ns <
The only rule he could call to mind wap
the one at the bottom of the time card : "In

Malonpy felt for his gun. In the general
confusion it had dropped down Into his ov < r-
allK. but he fished It out and approached the
wreck. Thp oil box , In which the supplies
were carried , had been jarred loose and
driven up against the furnace door. Wh"n
It had hern there a few seconds the oil
ignited and instantly the whole Interior of
the wrecked engine cab was aflame. When
the flash came it showed Maloney face to
lace with the two robbers. Being quirk and
cool , the engineer raised his revolver nnd
blazed away nt one of the men and the
robber chief was left without a follower.
But. oven as Maloncy pressed the trigger.
the desperado held hie own gun close to the
engineer1 ! " breast and let go. The conductor
and passengers , who were now hurrying up
from the rear , saw the murderous weapon
pointed straight cit Malonry'v heart and made
r.o doubt but that he would be dead In an
instant. 7)ut ) when thp pun went off the nig
engineer only staggered , clapped his left
hand over his heart and blazed awaj1 at the
robber. The sprrtacle of ft men" shot through
the heart Btlll Fbowing fight sepmed to fill
the bandit with terror , and. being a coward.
as many of these fellows are. he turned and
dashed away into the darkness , while Mn-
loney. still holding his hand to hiB left breast ,
sent stray bullets over the desert where the
robber ran.
In the glare of the light Maloney opened
his shin to look for the bullet hole , and
there was only "a big red spnt over his heart.
Closing his shirt hp examined his Jumper ,
nulled his book of rules out and found a deep
furrow plowed across the cover.
"That did the husincos , " raid the engineer
as the conductor approached. "I told you
that book would be the saving of niy life
some day. " And then they started to put out
the fire.
Stntlstlo. cut AVoninn'K Work.
The latest report 'by Mr. Wright , United
States labor commissioner , offers some In
teresting statistics on women's work. Be
tween 1S70 and 1890 the percentage of fe
males in all occupations in the United States
Increased from 14.CS to 17.i'2 , while the per
centage of men in the same , occupations de
creased from 85.32 to 82.78. During the
same period the proportion of women en
gaged In fishing , mining and agricultural
pursuits increased from fi.47 per cent to
7.54 per cent. In strictly domestic work
the percentage of women decreased from 42
to SS. The most startling example of
usurpation Is shown by the figures derived
from InveHtlgctlon In the factories. In
this case the decrease In the number of men
employed is almost takeii up by the in
crease in the number of women , the per
centage for men decreasing from 85 to 79
and for women Increasing from 14.44 to
20.18. About one-eigth of the working
women are married. Employers say they
prefer women to men , because of their
greater adaptability to work. It .is also
said women are more reliable , easier cou-
trolled , cheaper , more temperate , easier pro
cured , neater , swifter , more industrious ,
more careful , politer , ICES liable to strike
and readier to learn. The proportion of
females employed in this country 1 steadily
increasing. The Cigar Makers' union Is
the only labor organization mentioned in the
report as opposing the employment of
women.
