A lIIajol'ityof the ferry steamers of theII

Southern Pacific I'ouda'o now being altered so as to burn }petroleum for fuel in¬

stead of coal. The change being made\has been found to be more economical andmore convenient The steamers Oaklandand Julia as well as the freight transfer))1I"tlllf, , the Thoroughfare & Transit comlanyall put in petroleum and thennxt one to be altered is the Solano , thehuge Carquinez straits transfer boat . Theprice of petroleum when the experimentwas first made was $1.65 per blm'elandon this a saving of 10 per cent . was made .

The present price of potroleumis $ 1.45 , onwhich it is easy to make a great saving .

Besides' this , however , the wear and tearon the boiler ;is diminished , the servicesof one of the two firemen are done awaywith and the risks of explosion\ or ofac ¬

cident. are minimized . The fuel is notburned directly , but is sprayed by meansof a steam jot , this being the only possihaIti moans of burning it. The SouthernPacific people are desirous of utilizingpetroleum 011 those of their locomotivespl'illgon the suburban trains in order todo away with smoke and other inconveniences . .
