ELECTRICAL WORLD and ENGINEER. 1171 not a new device, as it was successfully used several years ago inconnection with its standard batteries, but that its cost at that timeprecluded any idea of its general use. The company has recently putin new apparatus for producing these sheaths and so reduced the costas to make their general use practicable. The company still uses its familiar form of Plante positive, con-sisting of a sheet of pure rolled lead having fine, vertical grooves,but has changed to a cage type of pasted grid for its negativeplates, in this way adopting the par
