A SIMPLE COOLING DEVICE
- -"■' ■ . ■''"
Invented by « St. Pnul Man, and
Docs Its Work Surprisingly
Well.
■•" "EA er in a cold storage house? No!
Well, just step in here with the
Globe and get a cool sensation.
Frozen stiff on a hot June day
all the delicacies of all the seasons,
from little red strawberries to big
black bears, present themselves.
Within these walls Minnesota has
become Siberia, yet the only ghostly
presence amidst the shadows to ac
count for the very, "eager and nip
ping air" are certain broad bands
of glistening and almost phosphores
cent white across the ceiling and
along the walls. But no heart
throbs Avith superstitious fear be
neath a silken doublet, no knightly
hand rests upon a trembling sword
hilt. In this scene there is nothing
medieval, dramatic, poetic or phil
osophic, for it is but the interior of
the cold storage rooms of the Thurs
ton Cold Storage and Warehouse
company, 211 Eagle street.
This establishment is not merely
the. only one of its kind at present
in the Northwest, but its business
has grown so rapidly that, within
the last few months, its capacity has
been increased five fold. It has now
no less than 40,000 cubic feet of cold
storage room. Its patronage comes
from every direction." Quantities of
perishable food products are
shipped into, the Thurston ware
house from sections of Minnesota
and the neighboring states.' Eggs
and butter constitute at least half
the contents of the cooling cham
bers. There haA-e been stored here
at one time over one million pounds
of butter and ten thousand cases of
eggs.
But many other things are as
perishable as butter and eggs. Not
to speak of earthly fame and fe
male loveliness, there are meat,
game", fish and fruit. It might be
imagined- that in the chilly breath
of refrigeration, as under the
EQUAL FOOT OF FRIGID DEATH,
all these objects would meat' a com
mon fate —pigeons would nestle along
si-j> if pickerel, bananas afford - a
hiding place for bass, and eels encircle
eggs. This, howeA-er, could not be per
mitted. Sweet sympathy cannot be
chilled into non-existence, but only a
lofty spirit can appreciate the gusta
tory evidence that brook trout has not
been forgotten by condoling veal, or
th it eggs and pineapples can relate a
common chapter of Arctic horrors.
Therefore the separation between the
varieties of "cold victuals" is rigid
and unvarying. Game amd meat are
stored together, but eggs, butter, fruit
and fish are fii^vays kept in distinct
apartments. The reason for this is
very evident from the atmosphere of
the several rooms. The aroma of the
fish room identities the genuine odor
of sanctity that emanated from the
apostles of the Galilean shore. It is
pionoir-nced and absolute. Not even a
garbage -inspector could fall. to recog
nize its existence. In the fruit room,
however, the mingled perfume of
oranges and dates is as delightful as
it la rare In the land of the Dacofah3.
Closing his eyes, .a visitor might be
lieve himself along the shores of the
Guadalquiver rather than of the Mis
sissippi, in the famous gardens of
Damascus, listening to the song of the
bull ul. rather than on Eagle street
hearkening to faint echos of the risque
music on South Washington.
CAN. KEEP ANYTHING.
Game, meat, fish, and butter keep
best in an atmosphere lowered to about
7 or 8 deg. above zero. Eggs are al
most in a freezing temperature at 33
deg. above. Tropical fruit, born in
the shadow of the equator, cannot be
taken with impunity to the region of
the poles. Cold greater than 36 above
does such fruit more harm than bene
fit. At these temperatures all of tho
articles mentioned can be kept in al
most perfect condition for one or two
years. It is Impossible to decide
whether an egg so preserved has been
en egg for ten months or ten weeks.
The Thurston warehouse Is not mere
ly a cold storage warehouse. It also
Includes a large amount of space de
voted to general storage of all kinds.
Besides, several spacious and secure
apartments are utilized by the general
government as a United States bonded
warehouse. All of the merchandise
held in bond by the local custom house
is stored by the Thurston company.
The government custom house prop
er, Including, as it does, the postofiice
and many other governmental de
partments, has long ceased to afford
a foot of storage room for imports.
<". B. Thurston is both superintend
ent of the Thurston warehouse com.
pany and government storekeeper in
charge of the bonded warehouse. This
is a high compliment to Mr. Thurston's
abstemious habits, for the usual con
tents of the bonded warehouse are an
alluring combination of HaA-ana to
bacco and Canadian whisky.
A cold storage warehouse naturally
seeks for the cheapest and most effec
tive system of refrigeration. The di
rect employment of ice Is attended
by many inconveniences; The Thur
ston company formerly used ice, but
three years ago It inaugurated a more
modern method, putting in a fifteen
ton Hercules artificial "ice machine."
The machine Is so called owing to its
common employment in producing ar
tificial ice. More properly It Is a "cold
machine," for its direct object is the
production of artificial cold through
the expansion of compressed ammonia.
This latter process of refrigeration is
not only among the oldest in practi
cal us?, but it is by far the most gen
erally employed and the most success
ful. The Thurston company has re
cently added to his fifteen-ton machine
another one of similar construction.

Is sixty tons of Ice per day. * Thus the

perishable food as heretofore. -
THE MOTIVE POWER -.'■?-.
for the large machine, or "^ammonia
compressor; is an eighty-horse power
Corliss engine, cconnecter;d r ; with :'- two
7T)-horse pojver boilers. The compress
or appears' to the non»professional to
to be simply a large double pump, the
pistons of which are attached to
either end of a "teeter board contriv
ance like the walking beam of ; a marine
engine so that « the contents ;of each
cylinder are compressed alternately. The
cylinders each measure 12 by 80 inches
and are most substantially constructed.
The piston, at the end of its movement,
comes within a fraction of an inch of
the cylinder head, so that thearnmonla
gas is thus reduced to one^flve-hun
dreth part of its former dimeirelons.
The pressure exerted is not "less? than
lt» pounds to the square Inch."..*.*;
The charge of ammonia necessary to
supply the entire c plant is the con
tents of four so called "drums." These
drums hold the pure anhydrous, or
"waterless," ammonia as it is received
from the manufacturers." A -drum is
a cast iron tube, three or four feet
long and a foot in diameter, and has
the solid, yet explosive,* appearance of
steam boiler. The ; drum contains 105
pounds of liquid ammonia 7 ,'?* costing
about thirty-seven cents a pound-. Six
of these drums afford sufficient am
monia for the entire 60-ton plant.' and
so slight is the loss from the original
charge that but one additional-_d"fu*m is
needed during a full year. J-^-aTJ-arge
tank, 40 by 14 by 6 feet, is coiled 3,000
feet of one-Inch pipe. This pipe. is -sur
rounded by a brine composed of v-nter
and chloride of calcium, which is 'bet
ter adapted for the purpose than ordi
nary brine formed of water and chlo
ride of sodium. When the charge of
ammonia is about to-- be utilized in a
refrigerating plant, the compressor 13
set to work so as to pump out; the air
from the pipes within the brine tank.
Then a drum of ammonia is screwed
to a supply pipe, and its contents are
conducted by suction into the empty
pipes within the tank. The ammonia,
as stated, is liquid when within the
drum. The supply pipe that it first
enters is of slight dimensions, but
when it reaches the one-inch" pipes
within the tank it finds plenty of
room to expand. Now the expansion
of liquid ammonia into gas produces
an intense cold. Thus the surrounding
brine is speedily reduced to a tem
perature of about 2 deg above zero.
This cold brine has only to be
pumped through pipes traversing all
the cold storage rooms to effectively
secure the desired ' refrigeration.
WhereAer the brine goes it so lowers
the external temperature of the pipes
through which it passes that the lat
ter are constantly covered with a
half-inch coating of pearly, dripping
ice; and the appearance of these
enormous icicles in almost direct con
tact Avith hot boilers and with other
pipes from which arise constant puffs
of fervid steam, is one of the curiosi
ties of a cold storage warehouse.
The ammonia, after it has become
gaseous in the brine tank, proceeds
to the compressor. There it is sub
jected to the violent compression here
tofore mentioned. It leaves the com
pressor not yet liquid, but with a very
marked disposition 'to become liquid.
Ascending to the roof it passes into a
mass of pipes, resembling an enor
mous steam radiator about ten feet
high and twenty feet square. These
pipes are covered by a roof but sur
rounded by lattice, work only, so„ as
to feel the effects of eA'ery breeze.
Over the pipes trickles day and night
cold water from the company's own
artesian well.. The cool reception
which the ammonia here meets quick
ly develops its retiring tendencies, and
It shrinks again into a perfect liquid.
The liquid now proceeds to the brine
tank, again expands, and the process
is indefinitely repeated.
DRIED BY WATER.
A St. Paul man, H. N. Molloy, is the
Inventor of a system of refrigeration
that is fast coming into general use
for real cold work on a large scale.
When Interviewed, Mr. Molloy was
chary of giving any very detailed in
formation regarding the technical de
tails of his invention. But the report
er went down to the storage ware
house of the Schlitz Brewing company
—which, by the way, is one of the old
est buildings in the city, directly op
posite the union depot on Sibley street
—and Manager Philip Sittman showed
him'through a large and costly refrig
erator the company' has? had built in
side the warehouse.
Briefly stated, Molloy utilizes run
ning water, the waste of ice piled on
peculiar platforms at either end of the
refrigerator. These platforms are
close to the ceiling, and underneath the
outer edge is a capacious pan, or re
ceiver, through Avhich the ice-cold
water is continually flowing. Of course,
there are A-entilators, but that's all
there Is! to it. Manager Sittman said he
puts three car loads of beer dally into
the refrigerator, the packages all
wet from the refrigerator cars, and in
a few hours they are as dry as though
no dampness was within a mile of
them, and as cool as the nose of a
polar bear. When the Globe man
entered the box he instinctively turned
up his coat collar, for the temperature
ranges between 34 and 36. The casks
were absolutely without moisture, and
afterward a meat box Avas visited,
where the same cold and dry condi
tions prevailed.
Malloy has grown up in refrigerators,
but like many other inventors it took
him a long time to put his ideas into
practice. Cold storage • houses were
shy until Drake Bros, let him build
a refrigerator for, them in the first
cold storage warehouse established in
St. Paul. Then the famous Marquis de
Mores took Malloy with him when he
went out on the Dakota plains to revo
lutionize cattle raising and meat pack
ing in the West. St. Paul was to be
the head center for the fiery French
man's vast enterprise, but his manage
ment was faulty and he failed, as Avill
be remembered. • -
When the Schlitz company invested
heavily in St. Paul as a city sure to
become a great metropolis, Manager
Sittman gave Malloy free swing, with
a . wide limit on expense, and since
then he has been as busy as a bee
building big refrigerators in the North
west. 7 .*.."';.-.':

The English, statistician, * Michael •
G. Milhall, publishes in the June
number of the North-American Re-,
view, just issued, an article on "The
Power and /"Wealth of the United
States."' Mr. Milhall's conclusion is
that, "if we take a survey of man
kind in ancient or modern times as
regards the physical, mechanical I
and intellectual force of nations, we \
find nothing to compare with the ■
United States in this present year
of 1895, and that the United States
possesses by far the greatest pro- ,
ductive power in the world. * He '
asserts that the absolute effective

Theatrical Stage Employes, Boston. ji
force of the American people is now
more than three times what it was
in 1860, and that the United States
possesses ' almost as' much energy
as Great Britain, Germany and
France collectively, and? that the
ratio falling to each American is
more than what two Englishmen or
Germans have at their disposal."
He points out by careful com
parison between the conditions in
these different countries that an or- I
dinary farm hand in the United j
States raises as much-grain as three j
in England, four in France, five in
Germany or six in Austria. One man '
in America can produce as much
flour as will feed 250 persons, where
as in Europe one man feeds j only
thirty persons. " Mr. Milhall calls
special attention to the fact that the '
intellectual power of the great re
public is in harmony with the in
dustrial and mechanical, 87 per cent
of the total population over 10 years
of age being able to read and write.
"It may be fearlessly asserted," he
said, "that in the history of the
human race no nation ever before
possessed 41,000,000 instructed citi
zens." In classifying the whole
wealth of the Union under the two
heads of urban and rural, he finds
that rural agricultural wealth has
only quadrupled in forty years, while
urban Avealth has increased sixteen
fold. In an important series of fig
ures it is shown that "rise in wealth
and the increase in AA'ages came -al- j
most hand in hand." In dealing
with the development of farm values
Mr. Milhall makes the following
statement: "If the United States
had no urban population or indus
tries whateA'er, the adA-ance of ag
ricultural interests would be enough \
to claim the admiration of mankind,
for it has no parallel in history." It
is refreshing to hear the advocates
of tariff claim that the American
laborer gets more wages than those
of any other country. In the face
of these facts he produces from three
to six times as much, but does he
get six or even three times the
wages? '. The mistake has been that
these political economists have taken
the time employed as a basis in
stead of the amount produced.
Equity Avould seem to demand pay
ment for the amount produced, rath
er than the time employed, because
the fund from which all wages must
come is derived from the sale of the
product. It is a startling fact that
the urban wealth has increased
four times as fast as rural wealth
when we realize that more than one- (
third of our agricultural lands have j
been brought^ under cultivation in j
the time mentioned.
Generally speaking, but little is do- |
Ing among the various unions during !
the present month outside of electing j
new officers. June is a month of elec- I
tions, and naturally ■ Interest centers
in a large degree upon the matter of
who is to fill the executive positions
at the disposal of the rank and file. A
new interest will naturally follow the
Installation of new blood and energy,
and the next few months promise ac
tivity all along the line.
To discuss labor and the Interests
and rights of labor demands intellect- j
ual faculties free from the warp and |
twist imposed by creeds and dogmas,
since intolerance in one thing is cer
tain to beget illiberality in all other
matters. To comprehend fully the
wants and rights of labor. it Is es
sential that a man's life must have
been at some time in. 'close 'touch. with
labor. It must haA-e had experience
in its struggles, must have known its
aspirations and hopes, its disappoint
ments and fears.
President Debs, of the American
Railway union, '. has sent out a circu
lar addressed to all local unions con
taining special instructions in regard

Debs is in high spirits over the pros
pects for the future of the order. Re
turns are coming in from the North

A legal controversy of more than or

altogether. Thereupon the Tailors'

What promises to be a vigorous and
large union was I organized '.Friday
evening when the " garment Av6rkers
of this city "got together" for their
mutual protection and benefit. Now
that the union has been formally
started. It is expected tHe membership
will rapidly increase. There are some
2,000 garment workers in St. Paul, near
ly all of whom are eligible for mem
bership, and it is but reasonable? to
suppose that they will take advantage
of the opportunity, to benefit them
selves. The United Garment Workers
of America was . organized in April,
1891, Avith eighteen unions. The na
tional organization now... numbers 107
local - unions of garment AA-brkers, In
cluding clothing cutters/* tailors, rub
ber clothing .workers.- cloakmakers
and cutters, and OA-erall. workers. The'
membership' in round figures, is about
30,000. The organization Is affiliated
