OHIO VALLEY
STEEL PLANT

CINE. This outfit is being supplied
by the Pittsburgh Foundry & En-
gineering Company of Pittsburgh,
Pa, and one $50 XIV Croker
Wheeler generator. direct connect
ed to a IS by Is Cross simple
buckeye engine. The generator
for this outfit is being supplied by
the Crocker-Wheeier Engine Com
pany, of Amphere, n. J., and the
engine is being supplied by the
Buckeye Engine Company, OF
Salem, Q. In this room will also
be located a 90 by 90 Hamilton
Corliss engine, referred to above.
This is an innovation in modern
rolling mill practices, as heretofore
it has been customary to locate the
mill engine right out in the mill
building. In this case, however, by
extending the coupling connection,
the engine is located i'll the main
engine room, free from the dust
and dirt of the mill, and yet this is
accomplished without losing any of
the benefits of direct connection.
In addition to the equipment
mentioned above, the Niles Tool
Works Company, of Philadelphia,
are building a complete machine
shop equipment, which will be To-
Gated in the extreme northern end
of the, foundry. The Niles Tool
Works Company are also building
"a acton, a cotton and a lotion
electric travelling cranes. These
travelling cranes will be of the most
modern type. The Morgan Engi-
neering Company are also building
for the plant a 5-ton open-hearth
furnace charging machine. This
machine will run on the erane-way
by itself, in the open-hearth build
ing, automatically charging the
furnaces.
The open-hearth furnaces, tn,
soaking pits, heating furnaces and
the boilers will all be fired by nat
ural gas. The entire plant will be
lighted by electricity, which will be
distributed to two hundred arc
lamps in the foundry and machine
shop, so arranged that the molders
and machinists can take the light
directly to their work. In every
respect the plant of the Ohio Val
ley Steel & Foundry Company will
be modern and up-to-date. 1t will
be better than any similar plant i'll
the United States, as the president,
Mr.. Robinson, has made a study of
open-hearth steel production all his
life, and he is sparing nothing to
make his plant the best equipped in
the world.

dry Company will employ between
six hundred and seven hundred and
sfty men. and commencing No

January T, 1904, before all depart
ments are running on double turn,
as most of the apparatus which will
be installed is being built especially
for this particular plant, and the
management anticipated the usual
delays in securing machinery of
this kind. However, the foundry
department will be working double
turn and to its full capacity by De
cember I, while the above number
of men will be employed. This
represents an unusual large pay
roll, as most Of these men will be
skilled in their profession, and,
consequently, their wages will be
exceedingly high. Nothing will
