WRIGHT DIRECTED EQUIPPING AUSTRALIAN PLANT. Government Small Arms Factory is Successfully Opened. Through A. C. Wright, formerly su- perintendent of the Hopkins and Allen Arms company factery here, Norwich makes a contribution to Australia over which this great Pacific commonwealth is just now priding itseif, in the erec- tion at Lithgow, N. 8. W., of a $650,000 government plant for the manufacture of small arms. Mr. Wright resigned from the Hop- kins & Allen Arms company here to take a position with the Pratt & Whit- ney company of Hartford as their manager upon the contract of equip- ping this factory for the Australian government. Copies of Australian papers tell of the very great interest awakened by the official opening of the factory on June $th. The Sydney Herald says: The factory is a short distance out of Lithgow, to the westward. It stands on a reserve of 127 acres. The buildings cost 50,878 pounds sterling, the motive power, made at Cockatoo Island, cost 9,026 pounds. The plant came from America and cost 138,048 pounds. The normal capacity of the works is fifty magazine Lee-Enfield rifles and bayonets in one day of eight hours. The electric generators, switchboard and electric motors were manufactured by a British company. Time to Turn Out a Rifle. The contract with the Pratt & ‘Whitney Co. was signed on August 14, 1909. The commencement of the tests, lasting over three months in the factory, began on February 12 last. Thus the establishment was in working order praotically in two years and seven months. The number of individual machines in the factory is 325. The number of gauges—which consisted of three sets of each gauge, including a master—is 6,370. About 275 hands are at present em- ployed. The manager for the con- | tractors, A, C. Wright of Hartford, Conn,, U. 8. A., gives the hours taken —the “man hours"—to turn out a rifle, as follows: An Finfield, 72 man hours. At the Birmingham small arms factory, 48 man hours. At the Australlan small arms fac- tory, 23 man hours (actual time 22 hours, 36 1-2 minutes). These times were all taken by offi- clal representatives of the Australian government, and Mr, Wright sad there was no doubt that they would reach 21 hours at the Australian factory. Speaking in regard to the length of time taken in establishing rifle factor- ies in different parts of the world, Mr. Wright said the Canadian government had established a factory to manufac- ture the Ross rifle; it had taken six years to establish the factory. The ar- senal at Ishipoor, India, was six years in building, and the arm produced was not as satisfactory as those developed by this plant. At the Rock Island ar- senal it took from two to three years to assemble, with the assistance of the original arsenal in Springfield, which made all the gauges and some of the tools. Mr. Wright satd while it was | admitted that we had the finest me- | chanfcal plant for ~manufacturing rifles, still we had not the highly sys- tematized and traind organizations of factories such as the Enfield, Bir- mingham small arms, and London, which manufactured the same type of | rifle, under government contracts. | There was no doubt in his mind, he said, that we should, in a compara- tively short time, educate Australian workmen to produce as good, if not a better, arm than any of the factories mentioned. Mr. Wright also stated that, notwithstanding the short time the plant had been working, they had 2,500 parts, with more being manu- factured, which spoke weill for the ef- ficlency of the plan in general. The speeches on the occasion of the opening fill several columns of the newspapers mentioned. The govern- or general of the commonwealth of Australla, lord Denman, was the principal speaker. No Plant Like It. Benator Pearce, who was recelved with loud applause, said he felt very pleased to be there that day to see the frujtian of the labor of a number of peaple in the Institution offthis mag- nicent factory, of which Australia could well be proud.

Shannon Has Auditorium Hotel, Providing -Bachelor Apartments, Ready—Model Hostelry in Every Respect— Five Story Fire-Proof Building With Accommodations For 40 Guests—Complete Up-to-Date Equipment a Feature. i v ¢y > i An innovation in hotel accommoda- tions in Norwich, the new Auditorium hotel, erected at the cormer of Mar- ket and Water streets by J. B. Shan- non, stands ready for its first public inspection tonight and then to open for its first business on Thursday morning. Its distinction lies in the fact that it s a “stag”- hotel, but with a grill attached where both gen- tlernen and ladies will be received at patrons. By those of his friends who have had opportunity to look over his new hos- telry, Owner Shannon has been told thet it is a gem of the first water, model in hotel accommodations and unequalled in completeness of equip- ment among the hotels of the country, bl% or little. he attractive new five-story build- ing which Mr. Shannon has erected for hotel purposes alone, covers a lot 50 feet front on Water street and 72 feet front on Market street, occupying an advantageous location In the cen- ter of the city and just offt Main street. On the main floor {8 the lobby and the adjoining grill, while the four floors above are occupied with the rooms that furnjsh accommodations for forty guests. In the cellar are the kitchen for the grill and the steam heating plant, The bullding throughout is of con- erete, fireproof construction, with ter- raza floors in hallways and rooms on every floor and fireproof stairways. The outside of the bullding is buff brick. At the Market and Water street cor- ner is the maln entrance, through a double set of swinging doors, a vertl- bule leading into the lobby. Deors and casings are solild mahagany with big panels of glass, and on each side of the doorway is a big curved glass win- dow, giving a particularly pleasing ap- earance to the main entrance, Over he entranee this corner of the build- ing is continued up in tower form with railed balconies at each story wmtil it ends In e clock tower exiending a story higher than the roof. At the summit of the tower is a gilded weath- er vane, representing an Indian stand- ing with bow and arrew in hand. On each baloney are rows of elec- trie lights; the cleck faee is lighter, and there is a big electric sign with the name of the hotel, the whole pro- viding for a notable lighting scheme for the building front, which will make this the most brilliantly lighted point or by the elevator, which is a combi- nation freight and passenger plunger elevator running frem cellar to floor. Throughout the hotel the bachelor apartments are alike throughout, each bedroom having a private bath adjoin- ing. One feature is that every room is an outside room and everyone alsc has a fine view, some overlooking the river and others giving a prospect up- on Laurel hill and other attractive parts of the city. In each room the fittingy are the me and make tempting and comfort- able accommodations that are hard to equal anywhere. In one point Owner Shannon has taken a step in advance of all other hotel proprietors in‘ the state as he .has supplied for every room one of the new Thermos carafes for cold water, making the Auditorium hotel the first in the state so far as he knows equipped in this way. Like all the rest of the furniture In the hotel, the furniture is mahogany, consisting of a bureau with French plate glass, chair and Cadillac desk. The bed stand is of brass of artistic design and there is brass hat tree and patent cigar stand. Rugs cover the tfrraza floor and at the windows are double shades, of holland and muslin. In the bathroom is a white enamel tub and set bowl, with hot and cold water, mirror with glass shelf, and combi- nation cup rack. The walls are tinted a very pals green. There is a radiator for steam heat in every room. All the halls are finished in with a terraza wainscoting. The kitchen for the grill is In the celiar, which 15 also well lighted (rom pavement lights and has a paved floor. It is reached by & stalrway from the grill reom and is provided with the newest kitchen applia: s of all that ig needed, In the kitchen equipment is a Fremeh range, gas broiler and ges griddle, combination nickel ceffee and tea urn, all the necessary sinks, with hot and cold water, a combination ice box and ice tank with filter for filling the Thermos carafes All the crockery is of special design for thie hotel. Adjoining the kitchen and separated frem it by a glass partition is the heater reem, where the boiler for the steam heating plant ig located. As manager of the hetel Mr. Shan- nen has placed Frank right in charge, well known to the hotel trade of this city, where he has been with the Wauregan house for the last 20 years, of which a deozen years were spent as chef and the balance as stew- green in the street tard.
