Cali want is the opportunity
and the proper conditions to DEM
onstrate to Chicago engineers that
can run locomotive equipped
with the Cleveland cylinder 500
miles in five hours"
A. M. Peterson, a wealthy Cana
dian, who is at the home OF his
brother, with a look of perfect con-
fidence in his eyes, made this asser-
ton. He is a big man with a
square chin and talks not evasively,
but directly and impressively. He
believes the Cleveland cylinder, in
which he is interested, is bound to
modify railroading and manufac-
turing from a mechanical stand
point. He talks with authority
because the Intercolonial railroad
of Canada, after investigation and
trial, has adopted the power saving
cylinder on its engines. Locomo
tive No. 50 is already equipped
with the device, and the testimony
Of its engineers confirms the asser-
tion that this invention is to usher
in new era in railroad annals.
The device is the discovery of
William F. and Eugene w. Cleve-
land, OF Rounthwaite, Manitoba
For over FIVE years they labored,
but it was only within the past
year that success was assured.
The new cylinder is best de-
scribed in Mr.. Peterson's own Lam
guage. He said, in reference to
the locomotive on which the inven-
ton has been applied SO satisfac
torily: "The appearance Of No.
50 is little changed since the Cleve-
land patent was attached to it. A
lengthening of the cylinder and the
smoke box is most noticeable. The
main points Of the device are a
double piston with central ex-
haust, called the main exhaust.
Steam is admitted at one end Of
the cylinder. Near the end of the
stroke the piston uncovers port
Of ample area, the steam escaping
explosively into the chamber be-
tween the pistons. The chamber
is connected with and always open
to the smokestack. This main ex
haust port remains open till the
stroke is concluded and till the
steam, which is admitted at the
other end Of the cylinder, causes
the piston to return and cover the
port again. When the steam port
becomes an exhaust, called supple
mentary port. the small volume of
steam left in the cylinder finds an
escape into the stack through the
nozzle. The same operation takes
place on the opposite side of the
cylinder.
MIR. Peterson makes the follow
ing claims for the new cylinder:
No resistance in cylinder, even
atmospheric being reduced.
Compression controllable.
No condensation discoverable.
Remarkable spoothness of ac-
ton, reducing cost Of repairs and
saving roadbed.
A saving of fuel from IS to 40
per cent.
A similar saving in water evap-
oration.
Increased power.
Increased speed.

Carlos V. These are Spain's largest
and most powerful ships, and If she
concludes that she does not need them
for home work or for the Philippines,
she may well send them to help her

NAVAL ADVANTAGE.
: But whatever Spain may do, she can
not overcome the advantage in naval
strength with which the United States
started and will always hold. Before
the Pelayo and Carlos V. could get
here, Sampson should have the Oregon.
a more powerful ship than either with
him. accompanied by the Marietta and
the Buffalo. The United States should
then have in gulf waters of the armor-
ed class alone, four battleships, two
cruisers and four monitors, against
Spain's one battleship and five cruisers,
even counting the Pelayo and Carlos
W; and In the unarmored class should
be far superior
The advantage, too, will grow more
marked as the war progresses. If Spain
has ships repairing and fitting out, so
the United States has. The Newark
and the Princeton, for example, are
two on which America can now rely,
and later in the year will come the
Chicago, Atlanta and Philadelphia. II
the war could be prolonged by Spain
to next winter, she would have more
armorelads, but we, too, should then
have the use of our Kearsarge and
Kentucky, which are far more powerful
than anything in the Spanish navy
In short, while it is not utterly i'm
possible for Spain to gain a success
over some ship, or at some port, or
by combination of skill and fortune
in some action, there is no apparent
possibility Of her overcoming that gen.

GOVERNMENT is CAUTIOUS.
The government IS cautious in eX-

is inclined to be favorable towards Mr..
Chamberlain's declarations The Schle

official papers, says:
"It is a mistake to undervalue a.
man who so intimately knows and
expresses the ideas and wishes of his
countrymen. Far from being an ex-
preston of Great Britain's weakness
and endorsements, the speech must
be regarded as the exposition of a DO
litical leader who is so sure of the
strength of his country that he does,
not hesitate to point out weak places. :"
The Liberal press favors a friendlier
understanding between the two conn
tries, but even the most favorable of
the papers do not go the length Of
advocating an alliance with Great
Britain, still less with the United
States. notable example of Anglo

great. naval engagement in which the
Spaniards would claim the victory.
