MARINE ENGINE ENDURANCE.
The Motive Force on an Old Liner and
How It Has Stood the Test.

That the marine engine builders of q
years ago were accustomed to put the very
best materials and workmanship into ships
of the first class is proved by the record
of long and arduous service of the trans
atlantic liners built during that period, a
few of which are performing high-cass
service even today. A notable case of this
is that famous old vessel the "Etruria, =
built in 1885, which soon after her entry
into service captured the transatlantic
record with an average speed for the
whole transatlantic trip Of 1875 knots. AL
though the ship is entering on her twenty
fourth year of service. she is capable to-
day of making her 1875 knots an hour
under favorable conditions of weather.
But, for the marine engineer, the points
of interest about this ship are to be found
in her engine and boiler rooms. The
"Etruria" is the last of the large ships
to be fitted with single propeller; and
her engine is one of the heaviest and
largest single engines ever built, the in
diyidual parts being Is of great size and
% inches in diameter, weighs q tons, the
rod, 1871 inches in diameter
at its centre weighs just under II tons;
and the piston rods, which are llM
inches in diameter, weigh about 4 tons
apiece. A single propeller blade weighs
5 tons, and the whole propeller complete |
81 tons. The engine is compound, with |
one 7l-inch and two l05-inch cylinders, the
stroke being 6 feet
During recent visit to the engine
'oom, made for the express purpose of
seeing how the engines had stood the
leavy strain of their twenty-three years
If service, our representative was sur
,rised to learn that, with the exception of
he crankshaft and the tail shaft (the
,arts of marine engine which are al
Ways subject to more rapid deterioration
han the rest of the plant this engine is
n all its parts identically the same as
vhen it left the builders hands, not even
he brasses having been renewed. And
ven more remarkable evidence of good
and careful attention is |
hown in the boiler room, which contains
he same Scotch boilers that were put in
early a. quarter of century ago. These
oilers have the same tube plates, fifteen
er cent. of the original tubes, and, most
,markable of all, the same corrugated
lrnaces as when they left the builders
ands. The ship must have paid for her |
If many times over; and her record {
ands as a protest against the cheaper I
aterials and more hasty workmanship
lat have been developed by the present I
~ demand for cheaper ships.-Scientifc
