W. generatorsbuilt by the Canadian General Electric, and the otherthree each drive 2 multipolar 300-K. W. wheel pits are constructed of sheet iron, to be abso-lutely water tight in case of a flood. In the basement arefive condensers, each of which is supplied with an indica-tor attached to the piston, so that the engineer can tell at aglance from any part of the engine room whether theyare working all right. Water for condensing and otherpurposes is obtained from Lachine canal, 700 feet distant,through a 20-inch pipe, waste water being returned tothe canal through a pipe of similar diameter. Theengine room, which is 235 feet long and 89 feet wide isprovided with two 15-ton cranes. The switch board, which was designed by H. R. Lock-wood, the electrical engineer in charge of the powerhouse, is made of terra cotta, and is 72 feet long byII feet high, 9 inches thick. This construction not onl}-lessened the cost
