Notes of Exhibitors and Exhibits.

The exhibit of the H. W. Johns Manufacturing company of New York occupied a very prominent space. The company was represented by T. Emery Meek of New York and H. Herbert Luscomb of Hartford. These gentlemen had a full line of samples of overhead material which had been adopted by many of the leading railway companies as their standard. The toggle-clamp pole insulators, with which the company has had remarkable success, were shown clamping several sizes of cables. The H. W. J. car heater was shown in operation, for which the claim of great efficiency with a minimum amount of current is made. Both panel and cross-seat heaters were shown.
