FUEL FOR WAR VESSELS.
An Invention by an Indiana Man
of Valuable Importance.

ANDERSON Ond), July 26-Judge
w. A. Chapman has gone to Washing
ton to file a patent application and to
interest proper Government officials in
inventions by Frank M. Reed of this
city, which have been completed and
tested practically and found to be ca
pable or revolutionizing the handling
of war vessels at sea. The inventions
carry out to perfection the idea orig
mated by Russia of using old instead of
coal as fuel for war vessels.
Reeds invention covers a system of
oil burning which would make it pos
sible for a vessel like the Indiana to
carry enough fuel to last a trip around
the world. The system is gas genera
ton from oil. The gas is generated by
an atomizing plant, is smokeless and is
capable of a tenth more heat than the
Russians get, or 33 per cent more heat
than the Government is now getting
from COAL making it possible to work
up to a greater speed.
Instead of thirty Stokers which are
now necessary on a great war vessel,
one man could handle all of the valves.
Another of the inventions covers a
storage tank that is absolutely bullet
and she'll proof. The cost of the equip
ment is very small and would be paid
for in a month or so in the saving of
fuel
