Chicago Change.

Chicago. Sept. 2O--Having driven Pard- ridges short line in, the wheat crowd are at present maneuvering to force the "lone'' line. reputed to be held by a syndicate of iron people, on the market. The house through which most of the purchases for the pool have been made, attempted to sell prices exhibited little firmness, but were baked by the attitude of the talent, who quickly sold prices off, It was not clear that the sales of the house mentioned rep resented any of the wheat the crowd were after, but no chances were taken on the question. The market was weak all day
 with the sole exception of a few moments at the start; at the close prices being very near tue inside. The situation remains prac-

First General Order to the Maine Militia.
Mr.. Jason Fl. Shaw, of the Maine Cen
trail, has discovered among some old
papers left by his father what is probably
the first general order ever issued to the
Maine militia. 1t was dated June 90,
1920, the year Maine was admitted to the
Union, and is signed by William King,
the first Governor, and Samuel Cony, adj
jutant general. Gov. King addresses the
militia as "Fellow Soldiers, and re-
minds them that he has been connected
with them for many years in the per-
formance of military duty. He calls to
mind the fact that Maine has an extern
sive sea board, and a territory bordered
on the north and east by the possessions
of foreign power. In conclusion he
promises particular attention to every
meritorious officer.

The Portland Company began on this
work last spring. To build these boilers
and engines is worth about one hundred
and ten thousand dollars The plans
alone must cost nearly if not quite a
thousand dollars
The designing of such work is of it,
self a great undertaking. The designer
and dranghtsmen build the engine in
miniature on paper, to the scale of a
quarter of an inch to foot. Every part
has to be traced out accurately, and the
dimensions have to be exact Above all
the whole must be complete. Many draw
ings are required for the different parts
When these plans are finally done the
various sheots are divided about. The
pattern makers take some, the black
smiths others, and the machinists others.
Each makes the little or big piece that
the carefully drawn picture calls for.
And as these pieces are finished they are
gathered in the setting up room and the
work begins Of putting them together as
the designer intended that they should
go.
This is the cruical point. If there has
been mistake in the designs it will
come out. If there is no mistake the
steel and iron limbs of the giant &C
together, and he is ready 10 begin his two
decades of toll in the cayerns of some
vessel.
The great engines of steamer like
the St. Croix are triumph of civiliza
ton; an index of the measure of the

necessary that the second cylinder shall
be larger than the first, in order to use
the volume of steam, already somewhat
expanded in the first. For the same rea-
son the third cylinder must be larger
than the second.
7 The stroke of the engines is thirty six
inches. This, with the diameter of the
cylinders tells to the machinist the story
of the engine.
The first, or high pressure cylinder is
twenty six inches, interior diameter; the
intermediate cylinder is forty inches
diameter; and the third or low pressure
cylinder is sixty-seven inches, interior
diameter. With these engines go four
boilers of the Scotch type, each twelve
feet, nine inches in diameter, and twelve
feet long These boilers are built to
carry one hundred and seventy five
pounds of working pressure. Each boiler
contains three furnaces of tho Fox CORFU
gated type. The outside shells of these
boilers are made of steel plates one and
one eighth inches thick. These great
sheets were cut, trimmed and rolled by
the great machines of the Portland Com.
pany with as much ease as if they had
been pasteboard.
All the steam piping about the engines
and boilers is of copper.
The great engines will run almost
without noise Of course the metal will
give forth little resonance. They will
last for twenty years with little or no re
pairs There are locomotives on the
FGrand Trunk road that have been run
ming over thirty years.

The completion of the engines of the
new steamer ST. Croix has enabled Super
intendent Greensmith to afford to friends
of the Portland Company a view of a
particularly Large and fine specimen of
mechanical engineering. These engines
are the largest of the. kind ever built in
New ENGLAND, and approach quite near
ly in size some of the engines of the great
ocean liners.
Some idea of the magnitude of this
work may be obtained from the accom-
panying cut of the engines as they stand
on the floor of the Portland Company S
shop, towering up eighteen feet and six
inches in height, and showing a width of
twelve and one half feet, and length of
twenty three feet The total weight of
this huge mass of iron and steel is about
one hundred tons
These engines, technically described
are triple expansion marine engines and
are similar to those used in ocean liners.
The invention of the triple expansion
engine was a great thing for ocean navi-
cation, as it enabled greater force to be
gotten out of the same amount of steam.
This was done by using the steam over
again, aftor the manner that water is
used over again when it flows through a
succession of water wheels. After steam
has been used in one cylinder to force the
piston along, it has yet some expansive
ness left. So the triple expansion engine
is made with three cylinders, through
which the steam goes, successfully. ex.
banding against the three pistons 1t il
