dent compound steam turbines and two con¬ 
densers—namely, one high pressure turbine and 
two low pressure turbines, and with the latter 
the reversing turbines are incorporated. Each 
turbine drives a separate shaft, three in all, and 
there are two propellers on the outer shafts and 
one on the middle shaft. Steam is sunnlied by 
four cylindrical boilers having about 8,500 square 
feet of heating surface and about 200 feet of grate 
surface, with a working pressure of 180 pounds.

Mr. Henry J. Gielow is getting out the plans 
for a steam yacht to be built on the Pacific 
coast. The yacht is to be built to the order of 
Mr. William Banning, South Coast Y. C. The 
hull, which will be built at Los Angeles, will be 
of wood of the following dimensions: Length 
over all, 107ft.; water line, 87ft.; breadth, 18ft. 
The engines and boilers will be built in San 
Francisco. 
Mr. Gielow completed the plans some time ago 
for the auxiliary yawl Huntress, for Dr. Pierce, 
of Buffalo, for use in southern waters. The yacht 
is nearly completed at City Island at the yard of 
Robert Jacob. We hope in the near future to 
publish the plans of this boat. Dr. Pierce has 
long gone south in the winter in the pursuit of 
game, and the boat is a fine winter home, also 
combining great mobility with her snug rig or 
her twin gasolene engines. 
The sloop Effort, winner of the King’s cup, 
owned by Mr. F. M. Smith, and designed by 
Mr. Gielow, has been hauled out at City Island. 
Certain alterations are to be carried out during 
the winter under Mr. Gielow’s direction. Effort 
proved to be a most successful boat, and one with 
■a rare turn of speed.

We mentioned some time ago the receipt of a 
commission by Messrs. Tams Lemoine and Crane 
to design a large auxiliary three-masted schooner, 
the dimension of which will be: Length on the 
.water line, 140ft.; breadth, 30ft., and draft, 16ft. 
The sail area will be 12,000 square feet. This 
yacht will be the largest of her kind built in 
this country, exceeding the three-masted schooner 
yacht Atlantic, 135ft. water line, designed by Mr. 
William Gardner, for Mr. Marshall, and who won 
the Emperor William cup in the transatlantic 
race some time ago. 
The firm of Geo. Lawley and Son Corp., of 
South Boston, are now getting ready to proceed 
with the construction.
