Liquid Fuel.

The NNutirm GuZctte ventures the opinion
that coal will soon he superseded by liquid
fuel for the generation of steam, both on land
and sea- aud that this is the intervening step
between the present fuel and electricity for
the propulsion Of motive power. IL expects
soon to be able to announce a wonderful
stride in the mechanical device, for using liq-
uid fuel, and says that the matter is in the
hands OF practical mel who will soon demon
strate that they can max. from Is to 30 gal
Ions OF crude petroleum, costing 50 to 30
cents, do the work of Il ton Of coal, which
costs from 81 to 81 3D. All this is to be ac-
comDlished, too, without dirt or smoke. In
the case OF large steamers only a couple of
men will be required to fire the room To keep
up uniform steam. whereas each ocean steam
ship now carries from forty to fifty men for
that purpose. The Gazette is SO conf
dent of its position that ii says: "Ihe
firemen of the future can wear broad
cloth in the fire room, while the
coal-passcr will have laid down his shovel
and hoe to become one of the memories of
the past To this our cotemporaiy adds that
this condition of things is near at band. We
see no reason why liquid fact should not
come into use, but we are at loss t" know
