MOTOR IS PRODIGY OF rowER
Used in Largest Steel Plate MIL IN
the World-Makes Only Forty
Revolutions q Minute.

A motor weighing $4,000
pounds is used to drive the largest
steel plate mill in the world at Dur
ham, England. 1t is a 20, %500-horse-
power motor, aud turns only at the
rate Of 40 revolutions per minute.
Great slabs Of steel, white with
heat, weighing ten tons, with di-
mansions up to 2 feet by 4 feet by /
foot, are thrust into immense roll
ers. These turn out steel plates for
battleships three-eighths Of an inch
thick, nine feet wide and some
times 100 feet long.
In the days before electricity
these feats were not possible. AS
nearly as one may estimate it, some
six miles of horses, six abreast,
would be required TO turn this
mighty motor over. The great Cor
liss steam engine Of 1875, shown at
the centennial. weighed nearly l.
100000 pounds and vas S. feet
high. yet this new motor, less than
half its height, is IA times more
powerful.
