MORE ELECTRIC WONDERS THAN EVER Buffalo In He ()nli'lncil In Users nirrt Opr-nlntr ' In I'lml All t'rntnrr Cnninlrtrly Itrnil )'. tlrnry Utintln, the Omaha electrician who pUnncd and plated In execution the fn mous electrical Illuminations of thn Pati-Amerlc-an exposition, an well nn those of the TransmlHuUslpiil exposition, Is In Omaha for a few ilayH vUltltiR frlcnils and his brother, Dr. Frederick lUiBtln. lie came from St. Louis, whore he closed a contract with thn hoard of directors of the lrftllslana Purchase exposition to take chart?; of the electrical work. "The Intention anion all HI. Louis peo ple, from the laborer in tho streets to tin; millionaire," said he, "Is to make tho Louisiana Purchase imposition superior In vcry respect to tho Pan. American exposi tion and all others. To do this they will pend not less than $."0,000,000. The de termination exIftH to haw everything ready on the opening, 'tay and .Director (Juncrnl Francis has announced that tho exposition wilt not he postponed, but will lie held In 1103, as originally planned. I believe It ran be accomplished, though It means nn Immense amount of hard work during the next two years, "The electrical features of the fit. I.ouls rxposlllon aro to excel any ever attempted, though the plans aro as yet In the rough. At riuffalo wo usrd 13,000-horso power, but If the present plans are consummated iibout .lO.OOO-horse power will be required at St. I.ouls. This means an Immense power plant and makes necessary a largo and never falling water supidy. The gen eral Impression has been that tho olcctrlcal porcr used nt lluffnlo was very cheap, be cause obtained from Niagara, Kalis. This 1m hardly correct, a there Is but llttlo difference In the cost of elcctrlcty gener ated by watr, and that by- steam. Jn fact, I think, a modern steam plant could come cry near to duplicating the prices offered by the N'lagara Falls plant. Therefore, thn power at St. I.ouls will cost llttlo more relatively than that nt lluffnlo, Mint Ili-iiPlliI mi lllmrlf. "In planning electrical Illuminations on large scale the electrician must depend altogether upon himself, llo has In mind the general plan and the effect he wishes to produce, but ho ennnnt explain it to nny one else, ho cannot seek advice and must rely ahsnlutely upon his own Judg ment, When the opening day conies and tho Illuminations blaze forth the electrician Is highly pleased If the result produced Is what he worked for. hut If It Is disappoint ing It must stand, for It Is too latu then to mako a change and tho electrician must khoulder the blame. "Naturally, I have been much pleosed at the compliments given my lluffnlo work, especially so with those from tho people and presii of Oniahu. AlkSt. Louis the work will he far greater than any I have yet at tempted. There Is n vast amount of work to' be done rtnd first of nil the main features must be decided upon. This brlnRS up the question of the amount of tnwf icqutred and when that Is settled wo can pmcel lth tho erection of tho power plant, which, of course, will bo a mammoth affair. Thou sand horsepower engines and thousand horsepower generators, which will bo re quired for the work, arc not to bo found upon the shelves of electrical supply houses. o that at best the preliminary work will lie rather slow. Snrpnnlna Klri'trlc Kimiitnlnsj, "As an Illustration of what St. I.ouls Is going to do I will refer to the one Item of electrical fountains. At lluffnlo we uaeil SS.OOO gallons of water per minute for nil our fountains, while nt St. Louis several features are planned any one of which will require that volume of water. "I will return to Buffalo next Sunday to finish some work, Though under no moral obligation to do so, yet many matters re quire attentlnu nnd 1 feel that I ought to bo there. For Instance, nearly 300 tons of cop per wire used In tho exposition Illumina tions alone must be taken up and loaded on cars. A largo nmnunt of electrlr.il appara lua remains to bo taken care of, so that inv tlmo will be occupied for ten days or two weeks. "As soon as this work Is finished in Iluf falo I will go directly to St. Louis and take up tho work there. It Is the desire of (ho exposition officials to push the electrical work lgorouHly nnd this will be done. My lime will be occupied almost constantly In Bt Louis from now until the opening dny."

A speed war, which may also affect rates, is In sight between the ChlcaRO-St. Paul lines, and It Is probablo that tho Chicago Omaha lines will be Involved. For soxeral years the roods between Chicago and Omaha, Chicago nud Kansas City and Chi cago and St. Paul hnvo been working under nn agreement restricting them to no faster speed than thirteen ulid n half hours to Omaha and Kansas City nnd twclvo hours between Chicago and St. Paul. During tho Inst month, however, tho transcontinental lines havo put on faster trains to tho Pacific, materlallv reducing the time between Chicago and Omnha nnd Chi cago and Kansas City.

"lu view of tho reduction of passenger train tlmo between Chlcngo and tho Omaha gateway It does not appear to tho Chlcnpo, Milwaukee & St. Paul rallvay to bo ad visable to continue tho present understand ing as to time of passenger trains between Chlcngo and tho St. Paul gateway. 1 there fore given notice of Us withdrawal from any understanding In relation tifcreto," Tho Milwaukee cfiklais decline to say what they Intend to do, but say anybody could draw his own conclusions. Tho road has recently expended muny dollars on Its roadbed and track between tho two elttos laying rails, rcbnllastlng, straightening curves and lowering grades, Physically tho .Milwaukee Is now lu a position to bring tho matter to an Issue. Tho Northwestern'fl cut In time between Chicago nnd Omaha has resulted In it con siderable decrease In passenger traffic of practically nil routes. The Mllwnukee road has therefore determined to show the North western and tho Uurllngton thnt If they can hurt Its Chicago-Omaha business It can re taliate by running faster trains than they do between Chicago and St. Paul. As speed wars generally result lu rato wan. tho traveling public has nothing to lose by the prospective light between tho western roads. It Is believed that tho first move of the Milwaukee In this direction will be to cut the Chi'cago-Omnlin rate $2 bolow the present llgurc. Tho road would give as a renson for this action that it could not af ford to place In service u solid Pullman train between tho two points, ns tho North western has done, and would therefore bo Justified In making the differential of $2.
