with Steam eiiirine oiioratioii. The I'liiniiiMtidii also of all piiiiiii: for the conveyance 

 of direct steam is a source of economy in the original installation, and this, in 

 combination with much greater compactness and cleanliness of operation are points 

 which favor electrification. We have already referred to the much greater economy in 

 the consumption of live steam and the lessened cost of fuel. It is estimated also

 less than that of a similar installalion in which the crushing plant is moved by in- 

 individual steam engines..
