According lo Manager Mnllcntync,
lo Inko caro of the Increase In (em
jeralurc It has been found noccssurj
lo Install nn entirely new main steam
lino of larger jipaclly. The old hnll
irs are to be connected up with the
header later to bo rcmocil. All
Mil vcr. Ices fittings of tho now lino
nro of cast steel while fiances nro
of wrought steel, there being no cist
Iron iiRcd In tho construction ot the
fcteam lino.
Engine a Monster.
A brief inspection of tho now en
plno will hardly glvo one an adequate
conception of the mass of steel, Iron
and brass used In Kb construction.
A powerful fly wheel weighing ono
hundred thousand pounds can be
driven at n speed of eight revolu
tions a mlniito. Tho engines havo a
htrokp of sixty Indies, diameter of
high pressure cylinder 28 Inches, dia
meter of low prcssuro cylinder BO
Inches,. diameter of fly wheel 20 feet,
ciank pin dimensions aro I0V4 Inches
by WA Inches, cross head pin dimen
sions 914 Inches by 9 Inches, main
bearing 22 by 10 Inches, greatest die
meter of shaft at heat of fly wheel
21 Inches and this shaft Is 21 feet In
length.
Thcro, Is a big auxiliary equipment
Including u thirty Inch Inlet Cochrane
Oil Separator which Is guaranteed to
Icavo not mofo than Vt grain per gal
Inn of oil In tho condensed water.
There Is a Wheeler Admiralty Itct
angular Surface Condenser contain
ing 2915 squaro feet of cooling sur
faco and 155 squaro feet of heating
surface.
A Wheeler, Edwards vortical air
pump with tall pump attached Is also
Included In tho now plint as well as
n reheating reccUer which Is claimed
lo bo tho only ono Installed In tho
Territory.
This apparatus takes exhaust steam
from the high prcssuro c Under and.
reheats It before It enters tho low!
pressure c Under Adding materially.
to tho clllclcncy of steam entering tho
cylinders.
Many Safety Appliances.
Appliances to insure tho safety of
cmplojcs have been Incorporated in
tho construction of the new plant. A
quick closing valvo placed between
tho steam lino and Iho thro'.tlo valvo
will closo automatically thus shutting
off all steam from boilers to ermine In
cane that anything goes wrong with
the plant, such as tho breaking of a
governor belt or In event the cnglno
was exceeding a normal speed of
eighty rcolutlons a mlnuto In or
dinary cares whero such nppllanco Is
lacing. It is necessary for an engineer
to reach tho throttle as quickly as
possible, doing so vory often nt tho
risk of his life. Tho Installation of
tho automatic valves obviates tho no
ccsslty of tho engineer at tho throt
tle In n tlmo of danger. All boilers
nro alio equipped with La firando
quick closing valves in case thcro Is
n disturbance of flo pounds cither'
side of tho valvo in steam prcssuro
thus saving n fireman tho necessity
of attempting to close steam valves In
caso of urgent need.
Where the Juice Comes From.
A Ocncral Electric generator with
a capacity of 1000 kltowats Is direct
ly attached to tho shaft of tho engine
It Ib known us tho direct current In

According to rough estimates from
Manager Hallentyne, tho con of the
now equipment Including engine, aux
iliaries, generator, switch hoard,
steam line nml boilers Is approxi
mately ninety thousand dollars.
The cnglno alono weighs 310,000
pounds whllo tho mammoth generat
or adds another ono hundred thou
sand pounds.

Charles A. Stanton Says Much
Interest in 'Frisco In Local

Charles A? Stanton of the K'lilmukl
Ijind Company, says that he can sell
half n million dollars worth of real
estate In Honolulu within the net
year If bo wcro to go to San l-lnti-clsco
and boom It.
"That's' how much Interest thcro Is
In Honolulu and how much tonndenco
San Franciscans have In Its future,"
he snys. "They think that tho opening
of tho canal Is going to make this clt
grow faster than any city on tho Pa
cific, and penplo who nro watching the
situation believe It, too.
"Every class of Honolulu real cs
tato Is In demand. Of rourrc there Is
nlwnjs n big demand for beach prop
erty, In fact, more of a demand than
a supply, but all kinds of residence
property Is wanted. I believe S,in
Francisco people would Inrest In resi
dence property hero quicker than In
their own city.
"Holph's election Is tho snlvatlon of
Snn Francisco. It means a tremend
ous Increase In Investment ami u re
newal of all kinds of business, Out
side capital will coma to Han Fran
cisco now with confidence."
