Horsepower does not always mean speed, for the City of Rome— very little smaller than the Teutonic— is of 11,800 horsepower, against the Teutonic's 18,---000, while the Paris, whioh is only 600 feet long, as against the Great Eastern's 630 feet, is of over 20,000 horsepower. Such comparisons show the wonderful development in laj» j£eflu& fcfj^ijp and ' engine building* .
