"In regard to the decisions of the judgee upon the
several points, it may be remarked that dunng the
entire trial there was scareely an instance of difference
of opinion—as, indevd, it wee hardly poenble there
could be, for the plan adopted was itself a surety both
of unanimity and • just decision ; the latter being, in
such a plan, neither more nor less than the practical
solution of a mathematical problem. For, by separat-
ing the respective merits of each machine into element.,
or "points." and subjecting each point separately to
the test of practical work done on each machine in
presence of the judges, their decision upon each roint
was reduced to the simple act of recording the facts
developed. _
