the fire, the benefit being that the coke is not subjected to the process of slaking as under the id system, which has already been described. Better results are thus obtained at less cost.

THE CONDENSERS.

Coming to the condensers a little preliminary talk must be indulged in. The gas, or gases, after coming from the retort house has to pass through a hydraulic main. It is then taken away along what is called a foul main, 18 inches in diameter, and from the foul main

At Wanchai the two bolders are of 100,000 cubic feet capacity and 100,000 cubic feet respectively, the latter being erected by the Barrowfield Ironworks, Glasgow,

THE 1889 RAINSTORM. Asked about accidents, the Engineer re- marked that there had never been anything specially remarkable. In the great mainstorm of 188, the main broke on account of the wash from Glenealy nullah, and the town was in darkness for two nights. The steam roller at first was a first-class breaker of mains, but the Company having laid their mains lower in the ground that cause of destruction has been obviated.

As previously mentioned the difficulties of supplying a town like Hongkong with light, with all its varying levels, are enormous.

As it enters the condensers the gas bas a temperature of 200 degrees, but it is gradually cooled, until it is of the same temperature as the atmosphere. The condensers are made by Morris and Cutler, The next stage is the exhausters. Here an old purifying shed has been converted into an engine house, tiled and fitted up in the most modern fashion. The exhausters not only pull the gas from the re- torts and the condensers, but they expel it towards the plant where the gas is treated before it arrives at the gasholders.

IN CASE OF FIRE.

In the engine-room there is an exceptionally handy arrangement of appliances for coping with fire. The directors as home sent out a fire pump and as there is plenty of water at the command of the Company the slightest symp. tom of fire can be tackled at a moment's notice. The pump is capable of throwing a jet of water roo feet high, the water being obtained from a well which supplies the works. The Engineer in his dry way remarked: "We haven't to depend upon the dilly-dallying of the Hongkong Brigade."
