STEAM FOE OCEAN sTEAAERs-NEw USES FOR
PETROLEUM.
The subject Of the expense Of fuel for the |
use OF ocean steamers has been an all lmpor.
TAFT one whenever line OF trans. Atlantic |
etesmers has been proposed. We learn that ]
an Ingenious mechanic OF AIeadYilIe, Penn. /
Is engaged In experimenting upon plan to |
produce from nap:ha, or the reaiduum OF pe-
t1o1sum, IN article OF fuel that will be used,
at an immensely reduced coat from coal, for
generating steam On board steamshipa tra-
Versing the ocean. The experiment is boing
practically tested at the DoTner Refinery, il
CORY, Penn, where 1t was giving much sat-
lstaclton, producing heat "a powerful and
rsgular as any ever produced from either
bftumfnous or anthracite coal. It must be
remembered that this article Is produced
from what was at first rejected az the debris
Or useless 1esiduum OF petroleum, but is now
coming into market as one Of its most yalu-
able products.
