Dicker- so1, The oficers elected are Pprominent business men and will push the business, Their fundamental patent was gratod Seplember 50, and in an interviow todiy the inventor, C. K. Harding, gives your correspondent the following details of tho workings of this system, which, cessful, will revolitionize methods. The Harding system avoids the usoof the overhead wireand enploys an un- @ergrouna conduit minning along the center if street railw sue- of the , which, unlike anything hercto- foro t 3 entirely closed, having no slot or opening through which the current is taken. The Harding conduit consists of an Aron casing with 4 tubular lower partin wihich the main wire is thoroughly insu- lated and carying on its upper surfice an exposed scetion of condue torabont six feet Joug and a quater of an inch above the sur- “faw. Theso conductor soctions are com- plelely insulated from each otherand from the wirecarrying the currentand are at all times freo from the eléctric current except when the car is over and protecting it. The sections through which the current reaches thee are themselves brought into conn tion with the main insulated wire automatic: ally by clectro-mugnets located in a small cavity atthe end of cachsection. Amongthe muny advantages cliimed for this systein is itsabsolute safety, its frecdom from interfer- ence with telephones, the absence of danger Lrom lightning and that its perfect insulation renders safe the carryingof a stronger cur- xent which will enable cars to be run twenty- five miles from the power house much more economically than s now done and will ren- derthe use of a slow runing motor on_th cars possible, thus avoiding the noisy and ex: pewsive geating ordinarly used. Tho in- Yetor, C. IS, Harding, has made alife lng study of clectricity and yvisited the Paris ox- position last year to furthor his knowledgo of tho electric business. Important Railroad Deal.

MisNEPoLs, Min., Oct. 9.—The most in- teresting paper to come before the American board of foreizn missions and one which called forth an_ acrimonius debate was the reprt of the committee of nine ap poited @ year ago to examine into the method of admiistrtion of the officers of the bard in Boston, especially the methods employed by the home secretary in ascertining the qualifica- tions of candidates for the missionary field. Thechairman of the committeeis Dr. Walker of New York und associated with him are others representing the two great wings of the boanl, but notextremists in - any sense, The report made adetailed showing of the financos of the board and compared what the board had recived yarly for its work with what _is given to other Lareo benevolent socictios of the church. The fignres showed that while the contribu- tions Lo these othier bodies have been incr ing year by year s the church grew, the nas Heen practically no inerease in the dona- tions to the American board. ‘This state of afirs, the piper argued, shows dissatisfac- tion in the chureies over the quarrels that have cme as o reult of the gres- ent systern of administration.
