The cylinders measure12 ins., 17 ins. and 26 ins. in diameter by 13-in. stroke, and thenormal speed is 375 r. p. m., with 155 lbs. steam pressure atthe throttle. The shaft and the crank pins are all 5 ins. indiameter, and the total length of the bearings is 50 ins. Thebearings are of gunmetal, lined with white metal. The fly-wheel is located next to the generator, and weighs 10,000 speed is controlled by a centrifugal governor, which sepa-rates a throttle valve as well as the expansion gear. There isa steam separator attached to the engine bed. The cranks runin a bath of oil and water. The generators were supplied by Witting & Eborall, whowere the contractors for the electrical plant, and are of thethree-phase revolving field type, with iron-clad armatures. Therated capacity is 300 kw at 7000 volts and 25 cycles, when run-ning at 375 r. p. m., built by the Electricite et HydrauliqueCompany, of Charlero
