mary cause OF the stoppage was not

The main engine crank-pits, however
were filled with water and oil, WHICH,

tain Glass held his chief engineer re-
sponsibie for the general conditions, and
il being deemed unlikely that the ma
chinery could be manned for the remain
ing hour by the contractors force and the
recording engineers. under existing cir
cumstances. the trial was declared of.
The difficulty does not affect the eff
cheney of the engines nor does II reflect
upon their builders, the Richmond Loco
motive-Works.
A computation made from official
data, taken at different periods during
the progress Of the trial. shows that the
main engines developed a sustained ave-
rage Of S.00-horse power, or an average
of 126 revolutions per minute for both
engines. During the same time, the pa
tent log deducting allowance for varia-
ton, showed a speed for the time the
trial continued of 1852 knots per hour
The designed horsepower under the spe-
cificaton is $500 to be developed with
123 revolutions of the propellers.
Taken as a whole he test made was
a success. the defects rendering COM

1t is likely that the ship will be taken

lack OF capacity in the engine-room

matter having been heretofore reported
for correction, after which the official
