The Willans Central valve Single-acting Engines madeB conquest in London, and are employed for direct driving ina majority of the electric stations there. The evolution ofthe engine began about 1870 under the constant and ableefforts of Mr. Willans, who was a competent steam engineerat the beginning, and an authority on the subject at the timeof his death about three years ago. Now has began a strugglebetween the single-acting and the turbine engines made atGateshead by -Mr. Parsons, and wc may also include the DeLaval engine, Which, however, does not seem to be made inEngland at this t
