The valvesare outside admission, with 3V in. leadin full gear forward and back. Thecross-head is of special form, as are alsothe guides. The design has been pat-ented by Mr. A. Vogt, the mechanicalengineer of the Pennsylvania. Thecross-head is in principle a modifiedLaird cross-head, in which the centerline of the piston is considerably belowthe top of the cross-head. The slidingpart is really encased in the guide guide is designed with broad,flat surface to take the usual heavy up-thrust of the cross-head when the engineis in forward motion, but the guide isalso made to enclose the sides and asmall portion of the underside of theworking portion of the cross-head. Thecross-head is made of steel and the por-tion covered by the guide is traversedby two lightening cores, so that the de-sign probably secures the lightest andthe strongest form of cros
