INSPECTION OF MACHINERY: ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DEPARTMENT FOR 1904-5.

Presented to both Houses of the General Assembly by Command of His Excellency.

The Hon. the Minister of Marine to His Excellency the Governor. Inspection of Machinery Department, My Lord, — Wellington, I do myself the honour to transmit herewith, for your Excellency's information, the report of the Inspection of Machinery Department of the colony for the financial year ended the 31st March last. I have, &c, Wμ. Hall-Jones, His Excellency the Right Hon. Lord Plunket, X.C.V.0., Minister of Marine. Governor of New Zealand.

The Chief Inspector of Machinery to the Hon. the Minister of Marine. '■ Inspection of Machinery Department, Sir, — Customhouse Buildings, 2nd, June, 1905. I have the honour to submit herewith the Annual Report on the operations of the Inspection of Machinery Department for the twelve months which ended on the 31st March, 1905. The work of the Department has been fully maintained during the year, and shows a marked increase in several branches, notably in the engine-drivers' examinations, the machinery inspections, and the steamer-surveys. The prime movers available for the, economical and successful driving of machinery are now very varied and numerous. The recent advent of the oil-engine, the perfecting of the gas-engine, and the introduction of the electric motor, have greatly aided to build up small manufacturing-works during the recent few years; and where steam is not absolutely required for such works, and where the work to be done is of an intermittent nature, then either of the above-mentioned engines or motor is very suitable for the said works. I am glad to be again able to report that no boiler-explosion causing bodily injury to any one has taken place during the last financial year. Boilers are now being worked in New Zealand at as high a pressure as 400 lb. to the square inch. A large number are carrying 150 lb., and very few boilers are carrying less than 100 lb. pressure. When I joined the Department fifteen years ago a pressure of 100 lb. per square inch on a land boiler was a very rare thing. Greater care has now to be exercised in making our annual inspections and surveys than was required in former years, owing to these higher pressures now carried on boilers. In connection with new boiler-construction all the material used must be of an approved and reliable brand, and better workmanship is now asked for, thus adding to the public safety and insuring to the owner a much more durable and reliable boiler. The engineering firms throughout the colony have met the demand for the better-class boiler with the higher pressures by equipping their workshops with the most approved and up-to-date machine tools to insure greater accuracy and speed. All the holes are now drilled, and, consequently, are fair before the rivets are put in, and the workmanship done in this particular branch of the engineering trade is of the highest class, and equals and compares favourably in every respect with those boilers which are made outside the colony. New Return. Return No. 21 is made for the first time, and contains full information regarding the power and class of certificates required by all steam plants in use at the present time in the colony that are of the power and class necessary to be in charge of certificated men. Boilers Inspected. The total number of boilers inspected during the past year is 5,119, and certificates for this number have been issued. Very little friction has occurred at the annual inspections between the owners and the Inspectors, and the wishes of the owners as to time and date most suitable to them for the inspections have, in most cases, been met. It is, however, difficult to meet all cases, as the officer, when in a district, must complete all the inspections in such district within a reasonable time. All the districts throughout the colony have been visited by the Inspectors, and the work of this branch of the Department is. well up to date.

The machinery attached to these boilers was all inspected at the same time that the boiler-inspeo-tions were made. Government Boilers. The boilers and machinery at the Government institutions throughout the colony have been inspected. Defects op Boilers and Fittings. The number of defects found during the year in connection with boilers and their fittings total 848. Table No. 2 sets out the nature of these defects, and these clearly show the necessity for boilerinspection. Numbers of these defects, if not attended to and remedied, would soon lead to results disastrous both to life and property. New Boilers. The total number of new boilers added to our books during the year is 486, with a total horsepower of 7,588|. Of this number 186 were made in the colony and 300 imported. The following table shows the numbers, the horse-powers, and the districts to which they have

Gas- and Water-driven Machinery and Lifts and Machinery-inspections. During the year 786 gas-engines and 344 oil-engines were inspected. The number of lifts examined was 350. The number of hoists and motors examined was 208. The number of water-motors examined was 273. Special inspections were made of machinery, and 809 certificates issued for the same. This makes a grand total of 2,770 inspections of machinery. Fencing of Machinery. This work has been well attended to, and the details in full of the work specified by the Inspectors to be done are attached in Table No. 4. Examination of Engine-drivers. These examinations have been held all over the colony. As far as possible every application for special place and time of examination has been met, sometimes at great inconvenience to the Examiner. The total number of candidates this year was 1,060. A detailed list of candidates who passed their examination appears in Returns No. 8, 9, 11, 13, 14, and 15. The examinations have been held at the following places during the year : Alexandra South, Auckland*, Blenheim, Christchurch,* Cromwell, Dannevirke, Denniston, Dunedin,* Foxton, Gisborne,* Gore, Greymouth,* Greytown North, Hokitika, Invercargill,* Manakau, Masterton,* Napier,* Nelson,* Otakeho, Palmerston North, Rahotu, Reefton,* Riversdale, Roxburgh, Takaka, Timaru,* Wanganui,* Wellington,* Westport.* Accidents. I regret to have to report several accidents to persons working in connection with running machinery. Returns Nos. 5 and 6 give the particulars. Districts and Inspectors. Mr. Hood was promoted from the Auckland District to take charge of the Nelson office. Mr. Grant, who had been in the Wellington District, was transferred to the Auckland District. A new office has been opened at Napier, the shipping work at this port having increased very much of late years. The Gisborne District has been attached to the Napier District. Mr. Sharp was transferred from Otago to take charge of the Napier District in April last year. Mr. Ramsay was appointed an Inspector last year, and filled the vacancy in the Otago District caused by the transfer of Mr. Sharp to Napier. Mr. Cullen was appointed an Inspector last year to fill the vacancy caused by the retirement of Mr. H. A. McGregor in Wellington.

* Places at whioh more than one examination was held during the year.

Postal and Police Departments. The officers of both these Departments have assisted this Department greatly in the collection of boiler fees, and in bringing defaulters into line, and assisting in prosecutions that have taken place during the year for breaches of the Inspection of Machinery Act. Marine Engineers' Examinations. These examinations have taken place at the places and times set out in the Department's book of regulations, and at other places to meet the cases of those in the outlying districts. Advantage is always taken, when the Inspector is going his annual rounds of inspection in the various districts, to examine any applicant who has applied to sit for any of these marine examinations. These examinations have been held at the Ports of Auckland,* Christchurch,* Dunedin,* Foxton, Gisborne, Greymouth,* Hokitika, Invercargill,* Maketu, ManapOuri, Napier,* Nelson,* Reefton, Timaru, Waitara, Wanganui,* Wellington.* Return No. 16 gives the names of the successful candidates and the various grades for which they passed, the total number of applicants, the total fees payable, and the number who failed. Surveys of Ships and Steamers. This responsible section of the Department's work has been well attended to during the year, and at the end of the year very few steam-vessels are overdue for survey. In nearly all cases one annual survey has been made, which is a very thorough one, all parts of the ship being opened up for survey. Particular attention this year has been paid to deck-equipments, the life-belts and life-buoys being tested for buoyancy in all steam-vessels. For the life-belts the test applied was 15 lb. weight in fresh water, and for the life-buoys 32 lb. weight also in fresh water. On the whole these appliances stood the test well. The provisioning of boats, begun last year, has been completed, so also has the provisioning of rafts. To prevent the removing of provisions between surveys from the tanks in which these provisions are kept in the boats and rafts the lids of all the tanks were sealed up with a light strip of sheet brass soldered at ends to tank, and stamped by a surveyor. A large number of repairs to steamers were effected at these various surveys. Explosives. During the year 318 written permits were issued by the Department in Wellington for the carriage of explosives on steamships. Survey of Ships for Seaworthiness. Forty-seven of these special surveys were made of steam-vessels during the year throughout New Zealand. The principal causes for these surveys were the following : —Defective condition of the main steam-pipe, caused usually by local cracks near the flanges by the expansion and contraction of the pipe ; damage to hull by fire through spontaneous combustion of the cargo in holds ; defects in steamboilers through the presence of oil in boiler carried over in the feed-water, with consequent overheating of the furnace-crown plating, causing slight collapses ; leakage in hulls of vessels through loose rivets, mostly caused by driving vessel when light against a heavy head sea ; vessels grounding at entrance to Nelson Harbour, Dunedin Harbour, Auckland Harbour, Foxton River, Bluff Harbour ; defective rudders ; damage through collision ; broken and defective main shafts ; defects in machinery. Table No. 19 sets out clearly the dates of survey, names of vessels, where surveyed, and nature of casualty. Fees earned by these surveys amount to £139 13s. Government Steamers. The Government steamers surveyed during the year were the o.e.v. " Countess of Ranfurly," s.s. " Ellen Ballance," s.s. " Hinemoa," s.s. " Janie Seddon," s.s. " Nile," and s.s. " Tutanekai." New Steamers. Forty-four new steamers and vessels fitted with oil-engines have been surveyed for the first time during the year. The names of these vessels are : —" Advance,"! " Albatross," " Baden Powell," " Canopus," "Defender," "Erin," " Eva,"f " Eveline," " Gael," " Hannah,"t "Irini,"t " Kamona," "Kekeno,"t "Kestrel," " Matarere," "Mavis," " Moana," " Moana" (launch), " Mullough," "Naomi II,"f " Natone," " Navua," " Niobe," " Norval,"f " Pateena," " Patiti,"f " Pitoitoi," " Putiki," " Riwaka," " Rothesay," " Rotorua,"f " Shamrock,"f " Speedwell," " Storm," " Success,"t "Sunbeam,"t " Tilikum,"f " Torgauten," " Uiera," " Vesper,"t " Violet,"f " Waiora," " Waipapakauri,"f " Wairua." Survey of Steamers Return. The return numbered 17 gives the number of steamers surveyed by the, Department for the period ended the 31st March, 1905. The return also gives the names of the steamers, their tons register, their nominal horse-power, also the indicated horse-power of steamers and brake horse power of oil-engine vessels, the nature of machinery and propeller. The total number of surveys made of steamers and oil-engine vessels was 335. The number of different vessels surveyed was 316. The fees received for these surveys amount to £1,764. Sailing-ships. Ten sailing-ships were surveyed during the year, and a large number of repairs were carried out to them. Both wood and iron vessels were dealt with. Particulars regarding these vessels appear in Return No. 18. The fees received for th ,se surveys amount to £66 10s.

Before closing this, my tenth annual report, it might be of interest to compare|the increase of the work in this Department during the last ten years by quoting for your consideration the following figures: —

The number of service certificates that have been issued do not appear in this list. The numbers against each class represent only the candidates actually examined and who obtained certificates. The classes marked with an asterisk represent new classes of examination which have come into force by Act during the last ten years. In the last ten years the boiler-inspections have doubled hi number, the machinery-inspections have increased 8,400 per cent., and the examination-work has increased 1,200 per cent., besides the creation of a great number of classes of examinations which the above table shows. AH correspondence in connection with these examinations, the issue of all boiler certificates, and the work connected with the Postal, Police, and Audit Departments, in relation to these certificates, is performed at the Head Office. This work at one time was done by each Inspector issuing the certificates within his own district, but is now done by the clerical staff, as efficiently, and at less cost. The issue of all certificates and the centralising of the greater part of the clerical work at the Head Office has given each Inspector quite two additional clear months in each year to engage in the practical part of his duties. During the last ten years 38,976 boiler-inspections, and 2,517 steamer-surveys have been made, and only one boiler-explosion has occurred during the whole of that time, causing the death of the attendant. It was proved that the attendant had mistaken the water-level in the gauge-glass, and had allowed the water-level in the boiler to get too low, thereby causing overheating of the furnace, which resulted in the explosion. This explosion occurred on 4th March, 1897, at Waikanae. The above figures show what good practical work is being done by this Department. Returns. Appended are the returns in detail, numbered 1 to 21 : — 1. Number and class of boilers inspected, and fees payable on these ; the machinery inspected, and the fees payable thereon ; and the classes and numbers of engine-drivers' certificates issued, and the fees payable therefor. 2.

Part of cargo consisted of unslaked lime, which caught fire spontaneously, scorching paint work, but doing no other damage. A crack developed in main boiler round flanging of front end-plate over furnaces. This was repaired by riveting angle-pieces over cracks. Plating in bottom of vessel damaged and a large number of rivets loosened by grounding while entering Patea Harbour. Sheathing plates fitted and new rivets put in where necessary. Vessel grounded at entrance to Nelson Harbour. Vessel was plaoed on Patent Slip, Wellington, where damage was found to consist of several slight dents in bottom only which did not affect her seaworthiness. Furnace-crowns of boiler collapsed slightly. This was caused by the presence of oil in the boiler. The pressure was reduced until strengthening rings could be fitted around defeotive part of furnace. A large number of rivets were loosened and bottom slightly dented by going ashore while entering Patea Harbour. The vessel was placed on Patent Slip, Wellington, for examination. All the loose rivets were renewed. Survey of the whole of the deck equipments and appliances. The tank showed signs of weakness on voyage from West Coast to Wellington. The tank was strengthened by fitting an extra intercoastal plate the full length of tank on each side of the vessel, and the fitting of extra angles on the margin plates. After the completion of the work the tank was tested by hydraulic pressure, and everything found in good order. Rudder carried away by coming in contact with some objeot in Wairau River. Temporary repairs were made to bring vessel on to Wellington, where a new rudder was fitted. Vessel's side was slightly dented whilst lying at anchor in Wellington Harbour, during a fog, tiirough the s.s. "Admiral" having collided with her when crossing the harbour from Seatoun to Wellington. On examination the damage was found to be of a slight nature, and did not affect vessel's seaworthiness. Stem of vessel was damaged in line with maindeck, as well as decks and covering boards started, forward bulwarks stove in, through vessel colliding with the wharf in Wellington Harbour, during a fog, on a trip from Seatoun to Wellington. The damage was made good by renewal of the broken part of stem and the replaoing of the damaged deck-planking and the repairing of bulwarks.
