Report of Expert of Great
Value to the Naval and
Shipping World.
30 PER CENT LIGHTER THAN COAL
steamship Mariposa Run 3,438 Miles
With Oil Fuel and Refuse Only
Filled Two Ash Buckets-Reduces
Engine Force One-Third.

Washington, Sept. 6.-The report Of
Lieutenant Ward Winchell, United
States navy, the expert detailed by
the navy department to observe the
installation and efficiency of the oil
fuel system as fitted to the Oceanic
Steamship company's steamer Mari.
posa, has been received at the navy
department. The report is an inter
esting one and contains matter of
great value to the shipping and naval
world giving positive information in
regard to the evaporative efficiency
of the boilers and setting out some
facts relative to the use Of oil as
fuel which have been earnestly sought
from the navy department by steam
snip men and oil producers, as well
as technical papers. Some of these
facts follow:
The Mariposa's gross displacement
was $3.50 tons and her average horse
power with oil about 2,481, giving her
daily average of 354 knots and a
mean speed of 1853 with 278 barrels
of oil per day.
Lighter Than Coal.
This was so per cent less in weight
than would be required of coal, for
one and half pounds of oil suficed
to produce a horsepower An i'm
portant advantage ia the oil fuel was
the reduction of the engine force
from 80 to 20 men. The ship used
only 10 Of. her IS furnaces, burning
crude oil in two burners in each fur.
mace by means of an air compressor
Of capacity Of 1000 cubic feet per
minute at 80 pounds pressure. All Of
the burners we're not used except at
short intervals.
Every precaution was taken to in
sure safety by ventilating the oil
tanks and otherwise. The entire re
fuse, after run of S,438 miles from
Sen Francisco to Tahiti, barely filled
two ash buckets, and the flames did
not affect the boilers unfavorably.
Difficulties experienced were confined
tn the choking of strainers, which can
he obviated by duplicating those parts
and in the regulation of the supply of
oil to feeders. When the air compress
sors needed overhauling in one or
two instances recourse was had to a
steam spray, which wisely had been
provided.
Men of Intelligence Needed.
Lieutenant Winchell says that Il
fewer men are needed in the fire room
with oil, it is necessary to secure men
of higher intelligence, with mechani
c2l aptitude and nerve, closely to
watch the furnaces. The essentials
arc that there shall be a constant air
pressure for atomizing, that provision
shall be made to maintain regular
temperature of the oil and the oil
strainers be watched steadily. Lieu
tenant Winchell's report concludes
that the Mariposa's trip was remark
able in many respects. and was not
;nly tribute to the skill Of the Pa
Cific coast mechanics. but to the en-.
terprise Of the company which first
installed the oil burners in lieu OF

Of the stock of a company beyond the

Drew had been a drover in his young

before selling his cattle in the market

then provide them with all the water
