To all whom concern:
Be known that Nikola Tesla, from
' Smiljan, Lika, border country Austria-
Hungary, subject ofthe Emperor Austria,
S and resident New York, the county and
State New York,have invented certain new
and useful Improvements Dynamo Mag

This invention relates that class elec

which disk cylindrical conductor is
mounted between magnetic poles adapted to
