 The broken cylinder and its compan- ion could not be used, however. and as steam was cut of from the boiler of the engines the speed was reduced One-half Even at this rate we were further handicapped by being compelled to stop every 1a hours to replace the brass Things which were continually wearing out un- der tho stralR
