Wt a and Mlew I IN THE FIELD OF ELECTRICITY Bubititntion of Electricity for Eteam of Hew York Elevated Roads. EQUIPMENT OF THE POWER HOUSE For el s Denaaed for Ametcaa Klee- trlcal Appllaaces Lay leg; .he l"a clSe Cable Progress ef trol ley Llaes. The substitution of electricity for steam i the motive power on the elevated rail roads of New York City It the most sweep ing dethronement of steam projected In re cent years. Preparations for the change have been under way for over a .year, and are almost completed, so that the vast service on these roads will be Inaugurated with electricity tn a few months. The genera equipment Is similar to that In use on the elevated roads of Chicago, but sev eral Important Improvements have been made. These Improvements are chiefly In the signal and twitch systems and In the equipment of the power house, the largest of Its class In the world. The great power house, which Is located at Seventy-fifth street and East river, la a magnificent atatlon, 204 feet wide by 680 feet In length. It la built of light-colored brick, but its Immense ttze Is dwarfed by the four chimneys that rite 278 feet above the ground. Some Interesting facts and figures, taken from the engineers' reports, as to the elec trical equipment and what It la expected to do, have been given out. The eight dynamoa, of which only the first will begin working thit week, are expected to fur nish a total of 100,000 horse-power, or about twice the amount generated by the pretent plant at Niagara Falls. Each dynamo Is literally as big as a small house, the ring measures forty-two feet In diam eter and weighing about 100 tons. Each dynamo, as a whole, Is estimated to weigh about 460 tons. The steam power required for the whole plant Is generated by sixty four boilers, heated by alxty-four furnaces, fed automatically from coal bunkers at the top of the building, holding 15,000 tont of coal. The ashes from the furnaces fall Into dump cars running upon tracks In the base ment. A force of about 100 stokers will be required. Before the present automatic stoking devtcet came Into use 200 men would have been needed. All over the building machinery haa replaced band labor so far at possible. The giant engines are oiled by what Is known as the 8legrlst automatic oiler, which forces oil to every bearing and does away with at least flitj men who would be kept busy handling tile 6,000 gallons of oil dally needed to keep the machinery in condition. Electricity Is used for handling machinery, raising coal, water, carrying off aahea, etc. Some conception of the vast slxe of the new power house It afforded by the state ment that It hat required 6.000 tont of Iron and steel, nearly the amount used In the Brooklyn bridge. With light on all tides. the Interior, both boiler rooms, as well as dynamo rooms, are beautifully light, the walla of white tile and the tile floors add ing to the Impression of strength and cleanliness. The offices for the engineers are on the aecond floor, commanding a view of the dynamo room. For the public, there Is a reception room, from which a view of the machinery may be obtained. It is probable that when this It thrown open, a tmall fee for the benefit of the men will be charged, at at Niagara Falls. Elaborate conveniences. Including shower baths, have been provided for the employes. Betides Ae power house at Seventy-fifth street, there are aeven substations In con venlent parts of the city, which serve to reduce the current, which Is sent out at a pressure of 12.000 volts, and has to be re duced to 600 volts before reaching the ele vated road motors. The substations have neither boilers nor dynamos. It Is ex pected that the eight dynamos of the main station will be In place within the next year. The engineer! are confident that, with the quicker starting and atopplng ot the tralnt, the passenger-carrying efficiency of the elevated road will be Increased fully 30 per cent. The doing away with cinders, smoke, much of the noise, and the possibility ot lighting the cart and atatlon with electricity are some of the additional advantages. Seelasr by Wire. About every six months there crops up In the newspapers an account of the achieve ment by someone of a dealgn for visual communication by wire, aaya the Electrical Review. Almost Invariably the inventor retldet at the endt of the earth or In the backwoods. Ever atnee Prof. A O. Bell deviled the photophone and succeeded in transmitting sound Impulses over a beam of light, the Idea of transmitting pictures or appearances, or light In some form over a wire, haa exercised a peculiar fascination upon Inventors. It was thought for a long time that the development of the peculiar electrical and absorptive properties of sele nium might show a way for the design of such a system. But the further knowledge which has since been obtained of the be havior of this substance does not bear out thit view, and it it not now believed that It can be used In this connection. A num ber of more or lest Intelligent methods have appeared from time to time, but to far none of them haa met even with the falnteat appearance of aucceaa, and the sub ject remains today about where It was when it was first thought of fifteen or sixteen year ago. There It no doubt that such aa Improvement would be of uae could It be mad. At the tame time, it doea not today appear at If there is any hope for It, and those who put faith In tclentlfle articles In Sunday newspapers are warnsd to look twice before they believ much Is this direction.

The export of electrical machinery for 119 and 1900 were respectively 32.346, - 413 and 35,466,018, compared with the 35.741,- 720 ot last year, showing a healthy growth, although the rate of Increase from 1900 to 1901 ta very much lea than from 1899 to 1900. Aa to electrical appliance, the sep arate enumeration ot this class of merchan dise was not attempted prior to July. 1901. But there ha been aa increase under this head of perhaps per cent, comparing 1900 and 1901. Relatively, the value of manufactured electrical apparatus Imported Into the United States la Insignificant, Practically the only items mentioned In the official statistics are carbon for batteries and are lamps. For the year ended Juno SA 1AOA the value nf HeMerv eartutna ' Im ported was ,15 .195 and of lamp carbon 882.220.

Mackey ha not given up hi project for a Pacific cable. On the con trary, he I going ahead with It. notwith standing the revived project for a govern ment cable, and has Issued a pamphlet. setting forth reasons why a government enterprise should not be permitted to In terfere with his. He sum up the principal disadvantages of a government cable, as, first, "the heavy cost of construction" In which, however, the Commercial cable company may not have an advantage second, "the annual expense of operation," which Mr. Mackey estimates at $1,500,000 per anaum, with a probable Income of $160,000; third, "the Inability ef the United States government to land and operate a government-owned cable either Is Japan or China," which la a atrong objection, since It limits the field and consequent revenue of a government cable. Another point, which Is not made In the pamphlet. Is that Mr. Mackey'a cable I now being made, and will probably be In operation before work on a government cable can begin. Eleetrte Reads la Peaaaylvaala- The annual report of the Bureau of Rail way of the Pennsylvania Department of Internal Affair for the year ending June 30, 1901, present a remarkable exhibit of the development of the electric railway In terests of the state. From the Informing synopsis of the companies' reports, pre pared by Isaac B. Brown, the superintend ent ot the bureau, It It learned that in 1887 the total length of the street railways wst 619 miles; horses employed, 10,923. The number of passenger carried In 1887 on these horse car lines i was 184,835,994. The cost of the roada and equipment was $12,326,068; total receipts, $10,025,905. The number killed on the roads In that year was 11; Injured, 63; total, 74. In 1901 the length of single track ot the electric railway tracks was 1,117 miles. The passengers carried reached the great total of 680,654,629. The cost of the elec tric roads nd equipment la placed at $94. 616,246. The total earning from operation and Income .from ether sources In 1901 were $27,398,148. In 1887 the total dls bursements were $5,646,606; in .1901, $26, 042,617. The car owned by the companies last year were 6,618. Nearly 16,000 per sons were employed, receiving a compensa tlon of $8,746,024. The roads carried 42. 460,097 more passenger In 1901 than In the previous year, and the mileage Increased 100. Cart-eat Notes.

Reynolds of Hartford, Conn., said at the meeting of tne nariiora 2 oar a oi r ire underwriters a few days ago that that city uses more electricity per capita for light and power than any other town In the world. There are at present 3,300 separate Installations, not Including Isolated plants, which have a total capacity of 77,Ouo Incandescent and 1,934 arc lights and 3,650 horse-power In motors. What hat been done so far In the way of harnessing Niagara la only a beginning at utilising that enormous natural power. This Is shown by the announced decision of the Niagara Falls Power company to more than double the present developed power, thus drawing from the falls 106,000 horse-power. In the second great wheel pit now being built eleven turbines of 6,000 horse-power each are to be Installed In place of six, as had been originally In- lenaea. wiiu 11 id Kiiiiuuiiceinviii the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle notes the protected erection of magnificent new factories at Nlaaara Falls and the pur. chase of extensive manufacturing sites on the dominion side by the Canadian Niagara Power company.

OUTRAGE AND MURDEROUS RETALIATION Effort of aa lafllaa Chief to Protect Hla Lead aaa Venneaae Wreaked by m Whit Seaatter. SIBLEY, la., March 8. (8peclal.) The government survey of landa lying north of the Raccoon Forks In Iowa, began In 184S. Engineer Marsh, who bsd the contract, started from Dubuque with a company of surveyors, and beginning at a point on the Mississippi river near Dubuque, began run ning the "correction line" across Iowa from the Mississippi to the Missouri. The sur veyor were allowed to proceed without In terference until they came to the Des Moines river. On the west bank of the river an old chief, Sldominedota (a brother of Ink'Padaota, who nine year later led in the massacre at Spirit Lake), with a amall band of warriors, halted Mr. Marsh and Informed him that the country belonged to thera and that the surveying party should recroe the river. After delivering the message the Indians retired. Mr. Marsh and his llttl company concluded to go forward. When the com pany was about a mile west of the Des Moines, at a point nearly two miles south, where la now the city ot Fort Dodge, the Indians suddenly surrounded the party. robbed them of their provisions, took from them their horses, destroyed their survey ing Instrument and the land mark they were making, and warned the surveyors, as they valued their Uvea, not to go further westward, but to return to the east aide ot the Des Moines a course the surveyors were compelled to adopt. These Indians were called the "Two-Ftnger" band, the chief taking hi name, Sldominedota. "Two Fingers," from the fact of his losing Angers In battle. Settler Aaaoyed by ladlaaa. A the land purchased of the Indians north of the Raccoon Fork and along the Des Moines river was soon to be thrown on the market, families began to settle near the mouth of the Boone river. Thee fami lies were subjected to annoyance and rob bery by the chief and band soon after the raid had been made on the surveyor. Among the white families that settled above the mouth of the Boone river was Henry Lott's. Perhaps no other circumstance in the early settlement of western Iowa did so much to Indue the massacre of a settle ment on the Iowa frontier at did the raid ing of Lott by Sldominedota, and the sub sequent murder of the old chief and hi family by Lott and bis stepson. It was not o much the inciting cause of a massacre at Okobojl and Spirit lake as It was th cause ot some massacre on the frontier by Ink'padaota, the murdered chlef'a brother. The fact that the blow fell at the lake Instead of on the little settlements along the Des Moines or the Llttl Sioux was due more to the Isolation of th half-doxen families that In the sum mer and fall ot 1866 built their cabin in the grove near th shore of the lovely Okobojl. Th brother of Ink'padaota had fallen at th hand of a white man and then that am man, Henry Lott, assisted by hi tepon, finished the bloody work by murdering the chief family. Lott a Troobleeome Character. Lott, In 1845, wa residing- at Red Rock, In Marion county. He wa an unscrupulous character, whose action were a hindrance rather -than a help to th. set tier along th border. ' He could not get along with hi neighbor at Red Rock and h wa next beard of at Pec' Point, in Boone county. The year following. In 1846, he moved up the valley near th mouth ot the Boone and built a cabin In what la now Webster county. There he engaged In trade. He had a small stock of good, th lot Includ ing a barrel of whisky. He had now ven turod up near the camp of Sldominedota, for both he and hi successor, Ink'padaota, for year had a camp in the northern part of Webster county. The squatter-storekeeper wa soon waited on by the old chief and a few of hi follower, well armed and with their war paint on. He waa notified that they re garded him as an Intruder. They told hlraf to leave by a certain time. It ha been re ported chat Lott belonged to a gang of horsethleves and that th Indian traced several loet ponie to hi claim near the mouth of the Boone river. After giving him warning they went away, but Lott did not heed their call and held hi ground. Aa toon aa th time expired the Indians returned and now Lott found himself in rougher hand than over before during his rough life on the frontier. They shot down hi horse and cattle, robbed the beehive i B, ..bout bit cabin, threatened hi family and drove from their home both Lott and his stepson. A they looked back toward the cabin from th bluffs skirting tb Boone they fancied they saw th cabin burning and th savages killing the rest of the family. v Help (or tho Vlrtlass. Hard fortune waa in store for Henry Lott. He and hi stepson quickened their pace. He apprised the settlement at Pec's Point, south of th present town of Boone boro. While John Pec wa ratting a fore In that tettlameat Lott went on to tb set tlement at Elk Rapldt, sixteen mile fur ther, to obtain more help.

It wa found, fortunately, that th family had not been massacred, but wer left In a destitute condition, the raider having carried nearly everything away. The Indian did not find th barret of whisky. Death of a Boy. Lott found to hi sorrow that on ot hi children wa gone and there wa scarcely a hope that It would ever be seen alive. Lott wa raided In th month of December, 1846. The weather waa very cold and snow covered the ground. Notwithstanding the Inclement weather, so greatly was he driven by fear, Milton, a 12-year-old boy. a son of Henry Lott. started to follow his father and his half brother. If they had only seen the lad he might have been saved. but they did not see him, and a they hastened down the valley he, as well a he could, tried to follow. On and oa the poor boy walked, making haste a fast a he could, for he wanted to be with hi father. He feared the savage, they looked o fierce and merciless, and he must be with hit father for protection. The boy waa traced to a point only three miles dis tant from where la now the town ot Boones boro. Hunger and fatigue had weakened him. and, unable to go further, the cold had seised him, and out on the river val ley, far from home and far behind his father, with no one to tpeak to him a word of cheer, far from human habitation or human beings, without ray of hope, death seized him and the lad Milton Lott died. Such a terrible blow at the death by freezing of hit ton Milton had Ita full effeet on the future actlont ot Lott toward the Indians. He held them directly respon sible for the death of hla child. The boy' death waa the first that occurred tn Boon county. Lott Prepare for Veoaeance. In November, 1863, Lott left the settle, ment that had been made at th mouth of the Boone river. HI wife died after the raid. Her death waa the first that oc curred in Webster county, Lott had loat a aon and hi wife, and the stepson had lost his mother and his half brother. Th two then went up and built a cabin on what is called Lott's creek, In Humboldt county. There they cleared a few aoree In a piece ot timber, skirting th east branch of the Des Molnea river. A tew miles further down the East Branch, on the west aide of the river and near wher what 1 called "Bloody creek" empties Into It, Sldomin edota and his family had their lodge, th family consisting of nine persons. Lott, It seems, was still la th whisky business. He had three or four barrel of the firewater and some good. Whether Lott' going up the river with trader' sup plies was for the real purpose of traffic or only a move to get within striking dis tance, certain it is that, once Lott and his stepson located within a few mile of th chief, there waa set on foot a terrible re taliation. The Indian family comprised Sldomine dota, hla wife, his mother and hi its chil dren. Years, crowded with Incident and event of the frontier, had passed sine the raid had been made on Lott's cabin and hi family terribly frightened, hla property destroyed and his boy lost by freezing to death far from hla father's cabin In cold December weather. The old chief had little thought of Lott and bis grievance. At the time the raid was made the Indian chief had not surrendered, and wa not disposed to surrender, the territory he claimed aa the hunting ground ot himself and hit band It Ii not certain that he ever learned ot Lott' heaviest lost, the death ot little Mil ton. The chief did not Intend to cause th death of any of Lott' family, or ha would have killed . them whea he chased Lott away. Lott,' rough, desperate and revengeful, would now deal a treacherou and mercl less a blow as ever Indian dealt th pal' face. The hour was coming that would seal the doom of Sldominedota, and route a spirit of undying hatred toward the whltea In the breast of hit brother, Ink'pa daota. Chief Lared to HI Death. Leaving their cabin, Lott and hit ttep ton went down to the lodge of th chief and told him that on their way they taw a drove of elk feeding on the river bottom. and that they would go with him after the game. Soon he was ready, and, all unsu. pectlng of murder, mounted on hi pony with gun in hand, waa leading the way, With what evil satisfaction did Lott's eye follow hi Intended victim, and measure the distance he vn making from hla lodge, hi home, hi wlfa, mother and children. In the breast of Lott there was no adml ration for the Indian' enthusiasm In the chaae; no pity for the Indian wife no soon to lose her husband chief; bo emotion of sorrow for th aged mother, and for the children of th lodge. Th chief back wa toward them. Lott- and hla stepson have their victim at eaay range rifle shot and 81dominedota falls, murdered. That night, disguised a Indians, they who dared not openly attack th chief at hi lodge mad a bloody attack on th family of 81domlnedota. The mother, the wife and four of th tlx children were massacred. A boy abont 11 and a gltl of 10, by escaping In the thick bushes under cover of darkness, survived. Th boy. however, had been badly Injured. It wa through such work that the chieftainship passed to the brother, Ink padaota. ladlaaa Discover Harder. Lott and the boy, to further conceal thalr murderous acta, set fire to their or cabin. About ten day after the mas tec r discovery was mad by som Indians en camped on the Lizard, a small tributary of the De Moines, which empties into that river near Fort Dodge. The Indian had gone from their camp on th Lizard to hunt on th east branch of the De Moines and on their way called to see Sldominedota and hi family.

The party making th discovery went at one to Fort Dodge aad reported th murder. Th partle who proceeded to the seen reported a pitiable tight. They aecam satisfied It was the work of Lett and hit stepson. To pacify th excited Indian a coroner's Inquest waa held. Th Indian grew morose, Lott at on time had asked the government for $3,000 Indemnity foi losses at th hand of th Indians, bul there wer remonstrance to th claim anf Lott did not receive anything. Major William Williams, one ot tht Fort Dodge party to visit the tepee when Lott took such awful retaliation for tht destruction of his property and the losi of his boy, ay th tepee wer torn dowi and partly burned. Th bodies wer mucl disfigured, being partly covered wit) frocen blood, and the wolves had gnawed al them. The wife of the chief had aought t lie with th llttl girl, but her hiding place, distant about 100 yarda from th lodge, had been discovered. Her body was torn in piece and th remain ot several of th children wer la th same condition. Flight of Lott aad His Soa. Major William bad been commissioned by Governor Grime to keep the peace be tween the white and Indian of the bor der. Convinced that It waa the work of Lott, he loat no time tn seeking his ap prehension. Lott' trail was followed down to the Boone river, wher he had offered for sale a pony, gun and article th property of the old chief. Lott reported that be had been driven away by Indiana. Lott and the boy fled westward across th Mis souri. At Dr. Hull's. In Boon county, they left two little girls; at T. 8. White's, about six mile south of Fort Dodge, they left a llttl boy. Som time after their escape across the plain th boy cent back word that Lott bad been killed In a quarrel In California. A few year passed and In March, 1857, Ink'padaota'a band committed the atrocious massacre at Okobojl and Spirit lake, killing about forty people who bad settled In and near the groves skirting the charming lakea. The Sioux carried into captivity three women and a young girl, Mra. Thatcher, Mra. Noble, Mra. Marble and Abble Gardner. The two former were killed and the two latter wer ransomed and returned to whit settlement through th help aad bravery of friendly mission Sioux. CONKLBIALITIES.
