dge take-up, specially large crank and wrist pins and cast-steel cross headswith adjustable babbitted slippers, top and bottom, working inbored guides. The reciprocating motion is of the simplest possiblecharacter, this simplicity in construction permitting low recipro-cating weights without sacrifice of strength. These features allowsatisfactory balancing, and, in connection with the long bearing onthe foundations, insure an especially easy-running machine. Thesteam valve gear is of the four-valve type. Steam distribution iseffected by means of short, double-ported, slide valves, working ateither end of the steam chest on a valve face as close as possibleto the cylinder bore, the port volume being restricted as far as thelarge valve area will allow. The exhaust valves are of the Corlissrotary type and are placed at the bottom of the cylinder. This con-struction has been followed in order to produce a valve gear havingthe essential advantages of a Corliss, namely separate passages for

The air valve gear is, however, the distinguishing feature of thismachine, combining in a very ingenious manner the positive action,noiseless operation and durability of the mechanically-moved valvewith the elasticity of the poppet valve. The noise and rapid w-earof the poppet valve, due to the impact of the valves closing at thereversal of stroke, is eliminated by mechanically closing the passagesimderneath the poppet valve, and leaving a cushion of air uponwhich the latter seats. The three fixed points in the compressioncycle, namely the opening of the inlet, the closing of the inlet, andthe closing of the discharge, are positively and mechanically con-trolled; the opening of the discharge, which is the only vari

With this method of artificial cooling, these maximumrated transformers will carry 25 per cent overload continuous-ly with the same winding temperatures as at full load with-out artificial circulation of air. The transformer is provided with a hot spot temperat-ure indicator, an oil expansion tank and a high voltage tapchanger, the latter operated by a hand wheel in a convenientposition above the transformer cover.
