The stoplist in David Fox's book does not include couplers, other mechanical stops, or pipe counts. The August 1892 Roosevelt catalog states 26 speaking stops and 41 total stops. Pipe counts given here assume 58-note compass in the manuals (with 46 pipes for the Voix Celestes) and 30-note compass in the Pedal; the totals match those in the newspaper article reproduced in the DOCUMENTS tab.
