To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
As I say, the boilers and engine cost about $40 a horse-power. Mr. Field : May I ask if it is claimed that the engines will give that economy under a varying load, which we would have in any electric light station. Mr. Henthorne : The guarantee covers a variation of 75 horse- power. Mr. Field : What are you going to get as the varying range which you will cover ? Mr. Henthorne : We have not tried that yet. Mr. Field : I question what can be done. I know of a plant being laid out now with high s...peed and good boiler plant and economizers ; it is expected to get down to 15 or 16 pounds. I think if you compare the cost of that plant with the cost of Mr. Henthorne's plant, and give it full credit for economy under varying loads, that you will grant that compound high speed will carry the wear and tear under varying loads. In fact, builders are all willing to guarantee it. Mr. Henthorne : There is no question at all that this engine of ours will require more than 12.6 pounds of water running on 100 horse-power.
