A Good Move.

The Southern Pacific company will
soon begin the work of altering all its
straight-air breaks to those of the au-
tomato design on the passenger
coaches in order to do this it will be
necessary to take every car off the
line and into the shops for short
time. Only few will be taken off at
once, but even they will be missed in
the great demand from the operating
department for rolling stock. In
substituting automatic equipment for
straight-air the Southern Pacific
Company will add great deal to the
efficiency of it's service, especially on
the long runs between this city and
Ogden and FL Paso. 1t is we'll known
and understood by all trainmen that
much time is lost in starting and stop
ping trains equipped with the old
fashioned straight-air appliances. All
the freight cars used by the Southern
Pacific Company are now fitted out
with their automatic air braks, and
it was this Company that first intro
duced the system in California.
