From that time to this there has been a constant effort, stimulated by competition and by improvements in machinery, to lessen the duration of the voyage. The old tide wheel, or paddle, steamers were abandoned about fourteen years ago, and the modern type of vessel is the screw propeller. The most recent steamers are twin screws that is to say, instead of having one propeller, each steamer has two, and In this way it is expected that a higher power can be utilized. The twin screws are also an element of safety, since each screw Is worked by a separate engine, and should one engine be disabled the other would have power enough to propel the ship into port.
