EDISON'S ELECTRIC LIGHTS, Analysis and Hasty Oriticism Aste ews of a Prominent Blectrioian, New In Edison's. Experiments—Tho Fnor- Fan ost of {he ant—Tho Light More Frpensire than Gas. Cinetnnalt Enauirer, Feb. A prominent electrician who visited Menlo ae day or two slice maken some sovero Park 4 Oy (Ralson nnd hisetectria lamp cluttns. ol ninelatesses tho Detlef that Billgon tn (his matter has shown hiinecle tobe efther a knave d tho world has eredited hitn with eee the Inter. He says it is apparent that alean hua resurrected a lot of relentifte lumber is the purpose of dazzling tle public, which bus ten the experiments of a like bowitdering forgot wer that attracted so much attention chimy thinly years no, Te thhiks Tdigon ts ‘faugbing In his sicove’’ at tho mullibllity of a pune that has been only too willing to belfove bis nesertions without testing thoir truthfulness eticnditlty. otto first placo, Edison has ginimed that tho horseshoe would Inst Indefinftly, without in dienting in any way that ft differed from tho Ineandescent earbon employed before. It was well known before thnt Incandescent car- pon, even In a perfect vacuum, tf heated suficlently toboof any valte a3 a light-pro- ducing agent, could last but a short timo, owing ton pecullnr disintegration of the mntorinl, the cause of which has noyer becn aitisfactorily do- termined. It scems that Edison, in order to mako his carbon horseshoes last a reasonable Jength of time, heated .them to a comparatively Jow temperature only, this eneriiicing mont of thelr light-producing power in order to add to thelr durability, whlel, after oll, ts quite lim- {ted, Inthisong polnt of want of durability, which has wreeked nll previous oxpertinenters during tho past thirty-four years, he appears tohave mado no advance whatever, It hus been assumed by Edison and the public that if thls lamp could be made a siecess In tho way of durability the problem of econamical electrie Nght by tho Incandescent plin wonld be solved, This is fur from boing the casc. Suc- cess would bo nas hopelesly fur off ns ever, A question of economy would ut ones arise, and here the rent dificulty will begin. Edison has carefully Ignored or avoided this point, undouht- edly understanding fully where Its discusston would nnd hiv. Edison called his lights ‘ten- candlo power cnch. Even If thoy were of this sxo no one would think of accepting ane in place of n aixteen-candlo gas-burner, Dut tho «fact is, thoy were by no menns of ton-candls porer each, ns any expericnced observer could sceatn glance, and no photo-tnctric measures nents nppear to have been made tn the Invorn- tory: Sareaver, tho light differs greatly In dif. ferent azimuth. For instance, whon the elge of the horseshoe §3 presented tho light evolved [8 vastly less than when tho side fs viewed. Even granting ten candles for the sidu of the horseshoe, the light from the cdge ie noticenbly ‘yery much less, Mr. Edison claimed to produce four of these lights with aconsimption of one horse-power in driving hla generators, bit prom- isc to 40 Iinprove hig apparatus as to yot cight or ten lights per horee-power, Even usaiuing these latter figures to have beon attained, the hopelesness of thealfalr in an cconoisenl sense §s apparent to any thinking person. Butinpolnt of fact {tledoubtfulif he can get more than two, or, possibly’, three, of these small lights per horse-power, under tho best management. {twas perfectly ‘pm ront to this gentleman that from tho alze of the belts conveying the power, ahd from tho rapidity of tho ravolution of the machines, and from ‘the heating of the armatures and fleld-tmagneta, cuch machine was absorbing from five to sevyon borse-power, and, as he nover had to oxcced fifty yhts burning at one time, it is cvident that ho !3 not now xct- ting, with hia prescnt apparatus, more than three, or, at tho outsido, four, lights per horee- ‘power, Pro ubsurdity of tho claims made for tho so- called Edison generation, with which the electric current for Hilson’s lights has been produced, has been discussed and mado suilictently np- parent by may selentifle writers turing the Pist fow months. A critical Investigation of this generator reveals the fuot that It is n rather poor forin of tho woll-known Siemens machine, without any novel or additional feature. Much has been sald in connection with Edl- son's lamp about his grout improveinents in the well-known Sprengel air-pump (which ho uses to exhaust tho air from his tamp-bulbs), by Teagon of which tho timo roquired to effect tho exhaustion was reduced from forty-odd hours ta) ‘twonty-tive minutes, and through which tho -extraordinarily perfect vacuum of a millionth catmosphere was attained, In Desehanel’s: Phi- ‘Josophy (18%), piwe 278, Dr. Sprengel (tho In- yentor of the | Sprengel pump) says; “From twonty to twenty-five — minutes fre p required to exhaust ‘a receiver of ‘tho’ capacity of - hulf a tre” This 4s. much Jurger recoiver than tho Edison lamp- bulb. Again; “iy this instrument alr hns been reduced to ono thirteen-hundred-thon- Fandth ntmospherio density, and the averago exhaustion attainable by jis uso 1s about one siniilionth.? Tt Jecne fe &eo whera Edison bor- rowed his nlr-pump thunder, Anothor point of wenkness in Edlsan’s system +4s tho [mmenee mmount of plant that will he re- quired, At overy point of supply additionnl ap- paratus would bave to bo provided to guard ngalnst accidents to tho enginy or the machines, Jt is estimated that thoro nro a million gaa- ‘burners in New York. Granting that the cleatrio lamps supplanted thom, it would require the same number of Jamps, which would supply in tho oygregnta o less auantity: of light. If each generator supplied forty Mghts It would still require 25,000 kenerntors. Attho rate of four lighta por horso-power It would require 250,000 horse-power, or 250 1,000 horse-power on- ines. Tho cost of n 1,000 horse-powor citrine s about $10,000. Edison proposes to have Ave 240 horse-power ongines in plico .of ono g,000_ horve-power “engine, and ho ‘thinks’ this would do away with the _ne- cosslty of duplicate — apparatits, o 20 horse-power engines would cost 820,000.
