language occurred later in the after

Mr. Schaub pulled off his coat and
began to swear, saying: Il want to

began to swear again. Mr.. Schaub then
took notice of the stenographer and
said: Order that lady out" OF words

Mr.. Schmitt, but did not hit him. Mr..
Schmitt was still seated, but then re-
moved his spectacles and arose and a
tussle ensued that ended in Mr.. Schaub
being put or thrown out of the office
into the hallway. Mr.. Schmitt then
closed the door, Frank II. Phelps had

been produced by the best West Vir-
ginia coal when used under a steam
boiler.
Professor Fernald recently completed
an estimate showing the difference in
cost and operation of 600 horsepower
internal combustion engine and 600
horse power steam engine; also the
difference between the cost and opera
ton of 5000 horsepower internal COM
bustion engine and 5000 horsepower
steam engine. In offering the estimates,
Professor Fernald declares he has made
the best possible showing for the steam
engine. while that of the producer gas
plant is but fair figure. In conclusion
he adds:
81 believe that the producer gas plant
can better the figure given, but | doubt
very much whether the steam plant fig-
IRE can be excelled even If it can be
reached"
Professor Fernald gives the cost of
the 600 horsepower gas plant at S4S,-
900 and the steam plant at $4,000, a
difference of $4,000 in favor of the
steam plant. Operating both plants 300
DAYS. twenty four hours Il day, the total
cost for coal in the producer gas plant
would be $3,6S0: in the steam plant,
$3.50. The total operating cost and
fixed charges for the gas producer plant
for the year is Sl6262; for the steam
plant. SPLITS. NThe total saving per
wear by operating the producer gas plant
is given at S5,ll6 With the increased
cost of the gas producer plant over the
steam plant, it is estimated that it
would take nineteen months of opera
ton of the producer plant to pay the
difference by saving in operating eX-
penses.
Professor Fernald finds that there is
no difference in the cost of gas pro-
Queer plant of 5000 horsepower and a
steam plant of the same horsepower, the
cost being placed at $4,000. Running
these plants continuously for one year,
the gas producer plant would require
81 900 tons of coal at $3.50 a ton, or
S52. 800. while the steam plant would
consume $4,000 tons at a cost of Sl0o,-
600. The total operating expenses and
fixed charges of the 5000 horsepower
gas producer plant are given at Sl4l,1l3,
while the steam engine would cost
$2l9, 535. @
