and connected with that on wall the curves on twenty fourth fourt fourehand hand and washington waa was being measured and connection made so that the circle around washington Vae hington twenty fifth wall and twenty fourth wa wall complete early this morning the reason for rushing this work to ench such an extent la is the fact that the Iti streets reto have been torn up so long not boly 00 ay by the water works and sowers sewers hut but in at laying the compan compau ydo not wish to occupy the estreet any longer than is necessary cor nor im impede pede traffic at all A car war watt run over the new line this morning at 1030 with a load ot at canoua curious pas Beni fetS who gladly paid their fare for the tun fun that the company apropo pushing the work is evident E lvery very contract tor for the necessary material and appliances and buildings baa has already been let the boilers and engine are now ow somewhere between here and chicago there will be a ZO horse borse power cross compound corliss corlise engine the whole plant will wilt virtually be duplicate duplicated as may be ceen seen from the following statements the company are to have ahrea boilers of I 1 50 bores power each which really means 3 engine horse bores power each only two of these boilers will ill be needed tans preventing any stoppage on the circuit because of breakage of one of the boilers the engine has two cylinders so arranged that after the steam has pissed passed into one it exhausts into the other thus really giving doable double power with this engine therefore thereto 0 the game same power can be obtained with with 15 horse bores power that is otherwise secured with 30 pounds from a high speed engine the tle boilers will be tested at pounds and will be run ran at instead of belts ten cotton ropes will connect the boilers with the engine should either a ot t these break the other will carry on the work while the tenth is being repaired there are three dynamos of volta each only tw two 0 of OI these are feces eary sary for the motive power one thus being held in reserve at all timeo again each dynamo has a separate connection with each of the c cylinders inders through A counter shaft eo so that should one cylinder get got out of a order der a lever would throw the machines to the other cylinder preventing any delay there are file five cir circuits its so arranged that any stoppage on either will not affect the other four the company have on the road between here and denver deaver 15 tons of copper feed vi wire ire this feed wire will be strung along the trolley 7 connecting at each pole should a trolley wire break the cars care can pass pam from train one pole to the other with the speed secured before leaving the broken wire and connect bamond the next pole thoa thus not lot even stopping tor for a broken wire there will be three lightning arresters on each circuit where other systems have only one to each in anad addition to these safeguards safe site guards there will bean be on the switchboard switch board and automatic cutoff cut off so that should the lightning miss in is 8 the arresters sni nl pas along the wire it will bo be thrown open and the current sent into the ground instead of at into the station all ail these things go to giving ogden the moat complete system in the united states the engines and boilers will be here bere on june 15 and the power houfe boute and other buildings will be completed by july 10 mr abbott the electrician of the company stated last evening that ogden would hae have the best system
