It sputtered a bit at first, then settled down to work and «consumed every drop of fuel in the tank, developing 75 percent of its rated horsepower. “By this time,” writes Captain Jessop in the offical record, “we We had seen u gas engine assimi- late a great percentage of water in its fuel, when all our experi- ence had proved that a very small percentage of water in the fuel would make the engine refuse duty; and the simplicity of Andrews’ equipment seemed to make it im- possible for him to have deceived s $2,000,000. - The Navy countered by | offering to put,$2,000,000 in the| bank in escrow, the money to be| paid when he had taught ten naval *Xperts to mix the fuel.
