A New Press which Prints 22, 900 Papers
 an Hour--Improvements Made.
 For fifteen years, says an English correspondent, MT. Hoe, and MT. Con- quest, the London manager of Mr. Hoe's works, have been endeavoring to perfect a "Perfecting Printing Ma chine, and they have at last succeeded The last difficulty which stood in their way-the perfect delivery of the printed sheets from the press-was only recent ly surmounted. Now, their machine, in their belief, is, perfect; and that it is perfect also in the opinion of others may be judged by the fact that the proprie- tors of the Daily Telegraph de- cided to have ten of these new machines immediately constructed fer them, and to have them placed in the new offices which they are about to erect in the rear of the present premises. The ten machines can be constructed in about ten months; and in @ year from this time the Daily Telegraph, with its Largest circulation in the world, :" will be printed upon presses, each one of which will be capable of delivering 22,- GOO complete sheets per hour Does not that take your breath away?
 This new press seems to be an i'm provement upon the Walter, the Bull lock, the Marronetti, and all the other perfecting machines in existence. One of it's peculiarities is the width of its cylinders-for they are so wide that each cylinder will print two copies at once-the roll of paper being made double width, and the paper being cut in two by very ingenious device, i'm mediately before it is delivered. An other peculiarity is the perfect manner in which the perfected sheets are deliv- ered-they are laid down in piles so ac- cruately that one would think the sheets had been put into press and trimmed. The Walter press-on which the Times and ScotsnaCs7e are printed-compels the pressmen to change the blankets once in each two hours-this one needs no such change. The whole force necessa- ry to each of these presses is two men and boy-with them 22, 900 perfect copies are printed in one hour; and the saving of wages as between this and the ordinary ten-cylinder Hoe, is as 15 is to 94. The only one of these presses now complete has been built for Lloyd's weekly newspaper; and to-day at Lloyd's paper mills at Bow it's performances were witnessed by a number of expert enced newspaper people, among them the proprietor and engineer of the Daily Telegraph establishment. The press did the work it was engaged to do; it printed 22,O0O copies of Lloyd's paper in sixty minutes, and never was there better printing. The cost of the press in 93,5OO; the ten ordered by the Doily Telegraph will cost 935, ,0OO; and | the enpines and other machinery for them will bring the sum up to $20O, 900 in gold. The present establishment of the Daily Telegraph is abont as perfect as need be, but it is all to be thrown aside for these new presses, which, al though costing so much, will, in the opinion of the owners of the paper, save them $75, 900 year, besides the advan- tage of enabling them to go to press at three o'clock in the morning instead of at 12 M. In word, if this new machine really proves to be what it seems, it will become a necessity to every great news paper establishment. P1coAD111Y.
