THE FAIR HAVEN ROAD.

One of the Engines Started Yesterday-The
 Others Will be in Operation Soon.
 President Parmelee of the Fair Haven and Westville road yesterday opened the valve of one of three pairs of en- zines which are to furnish the power for operating the cars of the Fair HaySn road hereafter. This engine is the only one of the three pairs which Is now com- plete, and the test made of it yesterday was eminently satisfactory in every way and 1t is probable that some time to- day 1t will be generating power for the road.
 The other engines are rapidly being put in operating condition, and it will not be a great time before the entire number are in working condition. The engines are of about 400 horse power each, and are of the Allis make. They are of the cross compromising condens- ing type, and were built in Milwaukee. They are connected directly with Vest inghouse generators, which are to re- volve ninety revolutions per minute. There are six upright Manning boilers made at the Bigelow works in this city and each is of 175-horse power.
 Each pair of engines weigh seventy five tons. and their fly wheels are each eighteen feet in diameter and weigh ten tons. The high pressure cylinders are sixteen inches in diameter, and the low pressure cylinders thirty inches, and have thirty-six inch stroke of piston. Each engine bed weighs about twenty tons, and it's main shaft weighs fifteen tons.
 The three pairs of engines gives prac- tically six engines, and each can be dis connected and run independently. which will prove very handy in the case of ac- cident. Four of the eight boilers will operate the entire road. and the two pairs of engines will be sufficient to operate the generators. There is room in the rear of the engine room to set another engine from 1000 to 1.500 horse power when required.
 Additional cars will be put in service on the road as fast as the power supply from the engines is available. Another sale of horses will probably take place in 8 short time. and as there were so many good bargains obtained at the last sale it is looked forward to with a great deal of interest. . 3
