THE RAILROADS.
A Boston Santa Fe Man Talks
About the Situation.
The Roads Extension to San
Francisco Probable.
How the Southern Pacific Conductors
Played the Train Agents.
Mr. James Walker and His Inspection of
the Southern California Roads.
Other Railroad Notes
of Interest.

Mr.. James Walker. confidential en-
ployee in the Boston Office of Vice-Presi-
dent Rhinehart of the Santa Fe, has
been in Southern California for several
days on a pleasure trip. Mr.. Walker
is delighted with the country, and thinks
that the prospects are excellent for the
future business of the Santa Fe system
here. He has thoroughly inspected all
the company's lines and has made a
thorough study OF the whole situation.
He dismissed the kicking San Diegans
in his conversation with the reporter by
the interrogatory, "Why, they are bet
ter off than they would be without a
railroad, are they not?" He found San
Diego most beautiful place and, in
fact, has nothing but words of praise
for the whole of Southern California.
In reference to the Santa FEES build"
ing north, Mr.. Walker spoke very guard
eddy. He said that the company was
just getting firmly on its feet, after a
trying financial ordeal, and was now
about in condition to contemplate i'm
provements. A San Francisco termi-
nus would certainly be beneficial, and
as far as business went, there seemed to
be plenty for two roads; of late the
Southern Pacific had had more business
than it could we'll handle. Altogether,
the impression received from Mr..
Walkers conversation was that the
northern extension of the line was very
possible.
TRAIN AGENTS.
Many funny things have occurred in
connection with the train-agent system
introduced some months ago by the
Southern Pacific, but the latest and best
joke OF all is just out, and it is on the
company, says the San Francisco Call.
AS is we'll known, the collectors were
put on simply as markers" and not as
permanent men. The receipts of col
lector on a certain run would plainly
show how many ranches the conductor
who preceded him expected to own, for
it is tradition with some conductors,
very old and held in great reverence,
that the only way to decide the destiny
of cash fare is to toss it up inside a
car. If the money lodges ON the bell
rope it goes to the company, otherwise
it is doomed to the sinking fund of pri-
vate enterprise.
OF course, the collector system had
the effect OF increasing passenger re-
ceipts, and when the company found out
what run ought to pay, under fair
treatment, the collector was taken of
and the conductor allowed to use punch
again, with the unspoken agreement
Los Angeles herald. [volume] (Los Angeles [Calif.]) 1890-1893, 1891-11-07
125 S. Spring st., Wagner's Kimberley. 1on1u

that he must hold his returns up to the
collectors standard or quit. About
three weeks ago four conductors were al
lowed to resume their former duties after
the manner described. They went to
work and soon surprised the officers by
turning in great deal more cash on
their respective runs than had been
handed over by the collectors. The
agents" being new at the business,
had never insisted on fare from chill
dren, and the willy conductors saw in
this neglect an opportunity for proving
to the company how it had been losing
money under the collector" system.
Since the old order of things has been
re-established there are numerous little
scenes on the trains when some fond
parent with eight or twelve children re-
fuses to pay for them, insisting that they
are all under 5 years of age, and that
"the other man didn't charge. any
thing" But the conductor collects the
fares, and huns softly to himself, sit
used to be the caper, but it don't 60
now"

THE CHEMICAL ENGINES.
They Are to Be Seen at Number Four
House.

The two chemical engines for the city
fire department arrived yesterday from
Chicago, and are beauties.
They were taken to No. engine
house, and the boys set to work to
thoroughly wash and brighten them up,
while Engineer Stormer put the various
parts together.
Each OF them is provided with two
fifty-galloh tanks, together with 200 feet
of ne.inch hose, roof cutters, plaster
hooks, splash ladders, patent door open
ers, besides two four-gallon Babcock ex-
tinguishers.
The great efficiency of these engines
consists in smothering the fire by means
of the gases generated by the acid. The
tanks are filled within inches of the
top with soda dissolved in water and
muriatic acid in leaden jars, which are
mixed by turning the tanks. This gem
crates power sufficient to throw 90
to 70-foot stream. The engines were
purchased through w. Y. T. Schenk, of
San Francisco, and cost about $2240
apiece. They were built by the Fire
Extinguisher Manufacturing company,
of Chicago. VIM. E. Stormer has charge
of them, which assures their success at
the trial next week. They are stored
for the present at No. 4 old engine house
opposite the plaza, where the public can
see these additions to the department.
