CASTING Two LARGE SHAFTS.

Two monster shafts are now in process OF con-
struction AT the Morgan Iron Works in this city.
They to be placed in two of the new steamers OF
the Old Colony Line. The shafts are Al feet in
length. % inches i'll diameter and Will weigh when
completed upward of IL tons, being the largest ever
forged in tins country, II not IN ne world: far-
rell DOnty the superintendent OF the forging
ing department of the Morgan Iron Work Ks, i'll speak
ing with TRIBUNE reporter about these shafts
the other day, SAID: . ,
They are made entirely out Of scrap-lron welded
and forged together You here this pile of
horsesh0es washers, bits of boiler ron spikes, nuts
ETC. these are the best materials for shafts and the
smaller they are the better, because the oftener
iron is worked, the freer IT is from impurities We
put pile of these scraps weighing about 23O
pouuds INTO furnace until they get soft; then we
take them out and hammer them into billets about
four feet long. These billets are examined, and If
there is the slightest nperiecuon III them they are
not used. Then we take a number OF these Bullets
and Law them together and put them in another fur
mace tlthey become soft enough to weld, when they
are put under a fOTty-tOn hammer and thoroughly
welded In this way by heating fresh bundles We
gradually thickeu and lengthen the shaft until it Is
the required size. In such an impOrtaet piece of
machinery a shaft the greatest care must be
taken not only to have the best iron, but the best
work and we try TO meet both these requirements
"Do YOU consider American iron to be better than
English iron Tor such purposes rs iheseF
By all odds in fact there Is no comparison, We
would not English IRON even If We could get It
very much cheaper. For the qualities OF strength,
purity and toughncss our own iron is the best III
the world"
our natural resources" said John Roach, the
proprietor OF the Morgan Iron Works, " make II
possible for us to build the best
ships in the world; not only these shafts
which YOU See but everything else pertaining to n
ship. Our only difficulty is that wages are higher
in this country than i'll England. But when You re-
member that wages 90 per cent higher than in
England il is certainly very much To the credit of
the American workman that, notwithstand-
ing these disadvantages, We can build ships
within 10 per cent of the cost of Eng

datons of sanitary inspectors VINO were sent 10
