Since this article was published, additional data as todimensions and details have been received, which are givenherewith. The illustration of the tower, published in theissue mentioned, is reproduced on the next page for conven-ience in reference. The component parts of the tower consist of the following:Four Ls 3 ins. x 3 ins. x 5-16 in.; lacing, one L 2% ins. x i^iins. x 3-16 ins. (single) ; connecting Ls 23^ ins. x 23/2 ins. x34 ins.; cap plate of malleable iron; rivets ^ in. in estimated quantities of material for one pole are: Steel,1340 lbs.; concrete, cu yds.; timber, 71 per linear foot; four-wire circuit No. 2, 1-5 in. diameter, area1,000,000 cm., weight lbs. per linear foot; three wires,circuit No. 3, each in. diameter, area 27,225 cm, lb. per linear foot, together with 3/^ in. coating of ice
