u Observer Bureau, 1417 O. Street. N. W., , Washington, July 19. Have we come to the passing of the steam engine? ' ' . Eminent -engineers and others who are constantiymaking a study of pow er plant economies are all answering In the affirmative. . The gas engine, the toy of yesterday, has come Into the Industrial horizon , as the giant of to-day. and already It la rapidly crowding the steam en gine back to the Junk pile. So marvelous has been the devel opment of this power producer that the oldUitle, "gas engine" has be come utterly Inadequate and has al most disappeared. Now the United States, " and tn fact the whole world, "la confronted with the "Interna com bustlon motor." . ' In hundreds of .big manufacturing establishments the -steam boiler 'and the steam engine are being oslerlzed and replaced by; producer gas plants with the accompanying Internal com bustlon engines. ' " . Ana there Is a reason for It; In fact, - several, k.: .zrzf.-'-' ."v't?. : The Internal combustion engine has demonstrated its "ability to produce - from two to nearly three times as ' much power with a, given amount of coal aa the ateam engine. Not 1 only this, but It has proved that the very . " poorest coals In the gas producer gen ' erate twice the power that the same coal does In the" steam plant' Still v Xurther It has generated power from ' lignite (the lowest form of : coal) 1 where the llgntte has refused to, do .any work under tho steam boiler. This will eventually mean a saving of millions of dollars a year to the manufacturers of this country. Va '. rleua estimates place the; saving In the country's coal bill at from $100. 000.090 to 1200.900,000. v -fis ..- The -people's coal bill In' 1905 was .' 1 11,500.000,000. 'One-third of this, or $500,000,000, it is estimated-went for coal to produce power. Thus It will be ' seen how. important this newest fac- tor will become to those who buy coal ' for the ourpose of making steam. In these days of gigantic Industrial ' , endeavor, with the great - nations of the earth struggling for supremacy tn - the world's marts, the prizes;; will go to those countries that can manufac ture the most economically. Realising this, tne manufacturers or me unitea ' States are taking an intense interest ' in the work now being done by gov ernment experts In solving the prob lem of the best utilization of the. fuel resources of the country. A better utilization ef fual means more econ ; omy in the production of goods and mora economy, means a larger ppor- v tunlty for the Yankee manufacturer - In the trade world. ' : ; ;V . 1 t The technologic branch of the TTnlt 1 ' ; ed States Geological Survey has been engaged for several years testing coals ' . ( for the use of the government and tn these tests the possibilities of the gas engine" or Internal combustion engine, - , have been developed to such a marked degree that the entire commercial ' - world taking- notice.". For three years the government ex perts, labored at the fuel-testing plant ' at St, Louis, Mo., with wonderufl re sults., The plant so far as fuel-tasting is concerned has been moved to Nor . folk. .Va,, where , the tests are being continued. .'..'- ' , The experts at the beginning found ,'. they had a. most difficult problem on their hands. They found that the loss es in the utilization of fuel for the de . velopment of power, , heat . and light were so great ' that In a ton of'coal i consumed tn an ordinary manufactur ing plant, less than 5 per cent of the , total energy was available for the ae f. ' tual work of manufacturing. They al- so found that In ordinary locomotives, J only 3 to 5 per cent of the fuel ener , pv Is obtained for pulling the train. This is about the same aa if the house ' ,' wife, took a barrel of flour and .suc- 'ceeded In getting but one small bls cult as the entire result. . In the hope of stopping this tre Y ' mendous waste which Is going on, the government experts have: been experl ' menting for some time. A method of - combustion which, it is believed, will ' eliminate this , watte; has been, found ' 4 In the gas producer and the lnternal i v - oombustlon engine. ; - Gas engines and gas producers have ' been In operation in the United ' States for many years, but the devel- opment was alow and unimportant un- . til the government experts proved by - tests - that soft coal and even lignite and peat could be utilized in the pro . ducer. Prior to the. year 1904, no one in this country had succeeded in using oft coal and lignite in this way. and . , , with the. big prices . for anthracite there was i but little economy in the '' gas engine." For many years the Na tural fuel of these internal combustion - - engines was city gas, but even this was too expensive except for engines of email capacity, it was seldom found ' feasible to operate engines of more . i than 75-horse-power n this fuel. . . The theoretical possibilities of the Internal combustion , engine operated . : vpon cheap fuel promised so. much that the practical . difficulties " were ' soon overcome, with the result that ' the internal-combustion ; engine at once became a serious rival of the team englnevThe development of the ;" gaa engine In point of size has been 4 ' ,' exceedingly rapid,' It was only a few years ago that a tOO-horse-power en ' cine exhibited at the Paris Exposition i . waa regarded as a wonder, but to .j day,- four-cycle, twin-tandenn double acting gu engines . run aa high -,- as A s,000-horse-power. . Robert IJeyward Fernald, professor f mechanical engineering, Washing ' . . . ton University. 8t touts. Mo., and en gineer In charge of producer gas tests . "- of the United States Geological Su . Vey fuel-testing plant, sees immense s ' possibilities in this new mode of pow -"V er production. In speaking of the re ' suits of the investigations he paints a rosy picture for the future, not only i in the cheapening of production, but ,- also in the abatement of the smoke nujance throughout the United , . . States, for the , producer makes - no ,' smoke in its generation of power. i '"The , value ot the results of these Investigations is of course not limited to the coal producing section of the , , " country, say Professor Fernald, "but '" extends through every State and terri- tory where coal or other mineral fuel Is used as a source of power. Thus in the New England States no coal la , mined, but In the year 1902. , tne - steam power produced through the . , consumption Of coal and uteed for manufacturing purposes in' these States cost approximately $50,000,000. 'me v development of this Y, power through the more efficient metnod suggested by , ' these ; Investigations would mean a saving to the manufac turers in these States of $15,000,000 to izo.ooo.ooo per annum. " 'Again, the total consumption of coal In St. Louis, Mo., for industrial , ..purposes alone amounu to, mora than 5,000,000 tons annually. If gas pro ducers and gas engines were substitute ed for the steam plants, this tonnage would be reduced 2,500,000 to 3,000, 000 tons and at . the . same time nmoke would be practically eliminat ed. . 1 ' Further, if gas producers can be introduced on ships and river boats not only will millions be saved In coal, but far less room will be requir ed on board for its storage. With this much cheaper gas operation, steam-' boats and river traffic will,' no doubt, become a much more powerful com- : . : ,,'. i r -.lif ) . r i . i.t lire j ; t J H1.7 7 i, w S t mi c::s;;.e would cust $-19,53. The toi.-l saving per pear by opratii;.? the gas i roducrr plant ot 6,000-hor."-e-power over, the same horse-power eam engine Is placed at J77,580, surely a tisure that would appeal to the big manufacturers. . ' That the United States has not taken up this question too soon is shown in the agitation now going on In Europe against the waste of fuel. The gas engine has already obtained high development In Germany and England has pronounced It a success. An eminent British engineer in . dis cussing the waste of the fuel resources the other day said in a London paper, "It has been estimated that some 62, 000,000 tons of coal are annually con verted inta steam power at mines and factories in the United Kingdom., and that on an average, the consumption Z.:: i.vr c.
