A Locomotive Quickly swallowed VI
And All Trace Of IL Lost.

''ln the construction OF the X Kansas Pa
ci6c and Atchinson, Topeka and Santa
Fe Railroads, said H. L. Carter, rail-
road contractor Of st. Joseph, to-day,
zone difficulty Of frequent occurrence was
met with. which. as far as my experience
goes is unique in railroad history. From
Western Kansas to the mountains quick.
sands are to be found in nearly every
stream, no matter how small, and to
successfully bridge them required an ex.
penditure out of all proportion to the
size Of the stream to be crossed. We
tried pile-driving, but the longest pile
disappeared without touching bottom.
Then filling with earth and stone was
attempted and met with poor success, as
the quicksands was apparently capable
Of swallowing the entire Rocky Noun.
tains. The only means Of crossing a
quicksand was found to be to build short
truss bridges across them. This was
very expensive. but was the only thing
to be done.
As an instance Of the practically bot.
toniess nature Of the quicksands, l may
cite the case Of an engine that ran oh
the track at River Bend, about ninety
miles east Of Denver. on the Kansas Pa.
ci6c. The engine, large freight, fell
into a quicksand. and in twenty minute.
had entirely disappeared. Within two
days the company sent out = gang ol
men and wrecking train to raise tn.
engine. To their surprise they could
not find any trace Of it.
Careful search was made, magnetizet
rods were sunk to depth of sixty .fv'
feet. but no engine could be found. /
had sunk beyond human ken, and from
that day to this has never been discov
cred. Cattle and horses are frequentl.
lost, the only animal that Is safe beini
a mule, the only animal that never get
caught. No greater instance Of the in
tslligenee Of this much malignsd quad
ped can be cited than the skill and car
with which it avoids all unsound bot
toms, -
As its hoofs are much smaller and mai
mower than those Of horse could safel
pass. Recognizing this fact. whenevs
a mule feels the ground giving away uu
der its feet it draws back instantly, an
