May and June are the months whenseveral of the railroad mechanical con-ventions are held and the investigationwork of the year harvested. Chairmenof committees are generally chosenowing to their familiarity with the sub-. A. J. Prjole, Superintendent of Motive Power depressed between the main and reardriving pedestals, so that there is ampledepth under the tubes. The firebox isradially stayed; one T-bar, hung on ex-pansion links, supports the front end ofthe crown, while the flexible bolts num-ber 325. These stay the entire throatsheet, and are placed in the outside rowsin the sides and back. The furnace isequipped with a brick arch, supporteden four tubes. The boiler barrel:> composed of three courses, the smallestbeing 63% ins., with the gusset sheet inthe center. The cylinders are single-expansion, andthe steam distribution is controlled bybalanced sliile valves driven by the Baker-Pilliod gear. This motion is similar tothe Wal»», in that the valve He-rives its travel from a return crank se-cured to one of the crank pins, and isgiven lead by means of a crosshead con-nection. Here
