COST OF ELECTRIC LIGHT, Can It De Produced In Competftion with an? To the Elitor af The Tritume. OAK PARK, Iil,, Oct. 10.—1 liave read with in- tercst all the information that the daily press has given us of the progress of inventions and dlscoveries tn the domain of electeical aclence. 1 hnve been capecially pleascd with the evident desire of Trne TrinuNs to keep Its readers posted In that progress, and also with Its appar- ten purpose of cducathig the popular mind to be well-disposed towards new inveatlons, even before they are completed and made puablic. But thero {ssucha thing as accapting too readily )l the vaunted benefits of sn invention yetto Le secn, as witness the Keeloy Motorof & few years ago. [The Keeley Motor was gencrally ridiculed, and pronouuced a humnbug by scientific men.—Ep.] The gas companics may not be so very witd in *'begging tho question,” as fn your cditorial of the 17th you say they do, in assum- ing tuat Edison cahuob by his anticipated jo ventions produce n light thnt will displace gas. ‘The 1y ':I. furnished thus far Ly even the hest clectric lainps has cost at least ten times [1] as miuch as the corresponding gas-light. The ques- tion Is, Can this great ditfercuce be removed, and the electeie ligut furnlsned as cheaply as gast T will not dogmatize too much cuncerning all the possibilitics of fature discovery, And yet 1 must admit that 1 fcel conndent that ihe Invention ot present promised by Mr. Edison will not accomplish the desired result. Hince the expetiments of Joule, Maver, and athers, somc furty years ago, it has been st tled axiom tn gcfentite circles that no wmnchine can ever be Invented which will exert ore force tlan bad been previously applled to it. Machines may be devised that change the forn of force, but nune tist can add to the amount. Mun never has been, aud never will be, able to create the smallest amount of force by means ol tmechaniesl contrivances or otlerwise, Ilo can only usc the furves ol Nalure as he finds them. “In fact, he car do this unly in part. Every machive thus far Invented loses a certain smoant of force in Iriction or imperfection, Now, the gas compunies by thelr manufacto- ries, and Edisun by his “invention, seek to change the forve of coul into light. By which systeu {8 there the least amount ol loss{ At tho prescat time there Is about the same proportional amount of loss in the production of electricity by the msgzneto-clectrical tachine ns there is 1 the production of gas in vur gas- tactors ‘Chere 1s a loss In the trunsmission of electricity by wires, owlng Lo resistance. This 1s about equal to the leakage of gas in the mulos, I the gas-burner anditue electrical lamps, about the same loss of lignt arlses fromn invisible or beat ravs, In addition to all thls, there Is 2 loss in the pruduction of electricity that bas nuthing corresponding to It in the use of gas. The cheapest way of evolving slectricl- tz nuw kuown I8 by the’ steam-engine. Now, the best steam-engine {u use to-Uny realizes only 16 per cent of the amount of force stored up In the conlused toproet it. The mass of our englues called good realize only 10 per_cent of the theoretical power of their fucl. In other words, the engines used in producing electricity Imzlhl by wasting ninc-tentlis of the forco of the coal, t At present tha gas compaoies, out of the total force of the coal, arc ublo to_convert about 25 per cent thoreol Into light, Tho elec- Lricians couvert about 25 per cent of ono-teoth of that force luto light. Their light, as shuwn by the experience in Paris, costs, therefore, just teo times as much as gas-light s". in other words, wasting nine-teaths of the forccol conl to start with, aud beloi no more economical after- wards than thelr rivala, tho electriclans produce resutts with teu timea the oxpense. [The gas-people say that electric lzht costs from three to ten times as much ns gzas, but this Is disputed. It moy be expensively and waate- fuily produced tno Parls durlng the Exposition, by cluinsy and unscleutific methods; but we see It stated that some of the experhinents now be- fur made iu-Great Britaln demonatrate that there Is not much difference in the cost per can- dle-power. Aud then Edison’s Invention is vastly supcrior to any other that has yet been fovented or tried.—ED,) This great difference in tho cxpense for e given amount o light by the two mcthods can- not be materially changed. Thero 1s as much chanes for improviog the methods ol gas-mak- ing and burning as there {s of improving the magneto-clectrical machines aml clectrical lamps, But, granting that no further prozress is wade 1n the manufucture of goy, vud that Edison aud bis fellow-workers ure ahble to so itnprove thelr machines as to saveand utilize all of the onc-tenthileft them by tue sogine, thelr light would still cost from two tu three times as much as that furnished by gas. Taking into consiucratiun the loss of force that (v due to the employinent of Lhe stemn- engine fn producing clectriclty, we are safe it waylng that, for the present, theclectriclieht cane not displace the gas, by reason of its cost. That, however, does not prove that it will not be sub- stituted for gas in & great many places, the sawo s the kerusenc-lampdlsplaces the chraper tallow-dip, and as is uscd by senaible people in pretersuce to eltber. |Kerosene {s far cheaper than the tallow-dip, or coal-gas elther, fo proportion to the light emitted, as overy one kuows who looks at gas- bitle.—Ep.) The electric light has s grand future before it even though it cannot conveta for the pre ent with gas, by reason of fts sdded cust. Lo albly see the electrie light pro- duced chieapor .t gusi but, to tuat end, other luventions are uecded than thoss prom- jsed us at present by Edlson. To produce light as cheaply bycloctricity as now it 18 by eas, elther the steain-¢ngine must bo so improved as to realize 7V or 80 1ustead of & to 16 per cent of the forcu of the fuel, as is the case to-day; or so1ne way must bu devised by which electricity 18 derived directly from coal, ws it now ean bo from copper-sulphate, Either of those inveu- tions, If ever made, would work chavges in fu- dustrial life tbat would utterly cast futo the shado all the previous fuveutivns of the race, Lut us hope one or both way sometitac be real- fxed. L. G. Powmns, The polnt that Edison makes is, that the greater part of the coal-gas In combustion s converted into invisible beat, and consequently 1a lost for, purposes of illumination, He aleo clalms that very litle of tho matertal he uses for the production of electric laht is lost in {n- visible heat.

Record of Judgments, New Bnits, Di. wvorces, Eto. Henry C. Helberg began a suit yestorday against James Donoliue to recover $500. In the sMdayit fled on which to ask for Donohuc's arrest, fclberg says that in May last, while he was workine for the defendant, who was & ped- dler, he recelved a draft for $500 from his fatter in Germany, Donnhue asked to be allowed to get [t cashed, and plaintiff Indorsed It over to him for that porpose. Donohue, however, hav- Ing collected the money, refused to pay it over, and Helberg took steps to have him arrested. On ledhniog of this, Donohue, on pre- teose of asking plaintift to take = walk, decayed him nto s saloon haviag & side entrance on 8hetdon street. Hers tivo accom- pifces met thedcfendant, sod the three took Hel- berg fnto & back room, aad thencs out through the rear door, and sttempted to throw him into & wagon which drove up on Bheldon street. Iis outerics and struggzles, however, brought the saloon-kecper, and the would-be kiduuppers fled. Donohue was recently arrested in Do- troit, where hic was staying under the name of Murphy. An order was issued for Donohue's urrest, bail being fixed at $500. A BAD COUSIN, Jane Moss yesterday filed a bill {0 the Clreuit Court, la which she tells some of her experience with ber cousin, Tom Moss. Bha says that fo 1871, when they were both living In England, ‘Tom proposed to marry ber. Bhe sald yes, but the laws ot England would not sllow two cous- 1ns to marry. 8o she packed up her clothes, ®ave up her position as music-teacher, put money in her pocket, to-wit: about $3,000, sad followed Tom over here. Tom was fnanciatly dead-broke when be reached Chicago, and Jane paid his board-bills until he got something todo. Then she Invested about $1,500 in the purchase of Lots 45, 40, 47, 48, and 49, Block 2, of Wisner's Bubdivision of Lots 8 nnd 9, in Brand's Subdivision of the N. E. i of Bec. 26, 40, 13. The title, however, was, unknuwn to her, taken in Tom’s name. He afterward sd- mitted that be held it fu trust for her, and she waited, hoping that It would be all right when she became Mrs, Moss, But that tine oever came. InMarch, 1877, Tom conveyed tha prop- erty to oue lllrr A, Barrett, and followed that up in April following by marrytug her. 8Sbe hus since died, tesving a child, and the title to the lots s getting so Involved that Jane fears sbe will foge It. In order to straighten mnatters out before 1t ia too Iste she bewar the present suit, asking that Tom and his child sy be de- clared to Lave no title in her property, A QUIZT IABEAS CONPUS. Home time last week Adam Mares, of Eva ton, preparcd & petition for habeas ‘corpus, sct- ting ‘out that he was fllegally detained by 8herl Kern on a mittiinus issued by Justice Huntoon, hut that tuec fatter was not a Police Justice at the tioie of Issuing the mittimus, and s fmprisonnent was therefore fllegal, The matter was orgued Bstunday, thongh the peti- tion had never heen tiled {0 he prover oftice, and deelded yesterday by Judge McAllister. ‘The Judre sald Justice Huntoon had not quali- fied within the time prescribed by law, but his titic to oflice could not be calied In ques- tlon 1u a collsteral proceeding. s transeript, however, was fatally defective in not stating the whole of the judgment rendered by him, §. e., the part relating to the Imprisovment, and he had no power to amend it after judgmient was entered. The lmprisonment was therelore life- @ni, and Mares would have to be discharged. It 18 probaolea quo warrsnto will be tiled to test the legality of Huntoon's Lolding his po- sitiou as Justice.
