These transformers will be wound for 2,200 volts, 2-phase, to 11,000 or 22,000 volts, 3 phase, and will duplicate the present equipment in the transformer house at Niagara Falls. The Union Railroad bridge which crosses the Monongahela river at Pittsburgh has been painted with Dixon's silica-graphite paint, manufac- tured by the Joseph Dixon Crucible Co., Jersey City, N. J.

Wells, Case '& Son of Highland Park, 'Conn., have just issued another catalogue dealing with the Case outward thrust propeller wheel.
