In Tiiiv Gi.omv cellar l)efore the fire stood the l)resses which for many years had been used. They were Bullock presses, the larger bein^^ double, with a capacity of 14,000 copies per hour, and the smaller a single press, with a capacity of 10,000 per hour. The present magnificent press, which rei)laced them, was made by the Potter Printiiig Press Company of New York and Chicago. As the huge press stands in Tiiiv Cii.oiUv lia.sement, seventeen feet in length by se\'en feet in breadth, and sdjuf sewn feet higli, it lo Imih in two independent storeys, each of which cai- alone turn out the entire pajjcr of an\ si/.e from four jias^e^ in sixteen paj^es. As a rule, the two storeys are used simultaneously, each prinlini; one half of tiie issue. Some idea of the machine's capacity may he formed from the fact that the two to.^ether can ])rint 24.000 ei,<;litpa,v;e papers an hour. When the press is in full rnnnin.i^ order and twohroad weli^ of pure white ])aper running; in at one end and com])leled and folded ( ilohes comini; out at the otlier end at the rate of 4 per minute, or more than si.\ ])er second, the si.i^lit is one not soon to l)e I'l.r .i^otten.
