NOVEL ENGINES.


Combination Locomotives Brought Here
by the Southern Pacific Company.
There have just arrived at the Southern
Pacific yards in Sacramento two new ten
wheel combination locomotives from the
Schenectady Locomotive Works, New York,
and two more will shortly come.
A combination locomotive has both high
pressure and low pressure cylinder, and the
steam is exhausted from the first into the
low pressure. giving double use of 1t and
thus effecting great saving OF fuel.
This type of engine, says the Bee, Is COM
paratively unknown in this country, though
they are in considerable use in England.
Last winter the Southern Pacific Company
made some experiments, converting an or
dinary locomotive into combination, and
were so well pleased with the results that
they ordered the four mentioned from the
Schenectady Works.
The two now being set up in the yards
were towed from the works, coming by
way of the Southern route. In a day or
two they Will probably be ready for a trial
run. They are numbered 1855 and 1856
respectively, are duplicates and will weigh
between fifty-five and sixty tons. The high
pressure cylinder is 20x24 inches. and the
lOw-p pressure 29x24. The boiler capacity Is
1000 gallons, and they will run ordinarily
under about 100 pounds pressure. 1t is
probable that the new motors will be put
into passenger service between Sacramento
and San Francisco.

FAvoRABLY IMPRESSED.

F1atIerIng Comments on President Har-
rison's Address by Methodists.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.-THE Star this
evening prints the following: There was
nothing half-hearted in the applause which
freely punctuated President Harrson's ad-
dress in the conference to-day InDumer-
able were the expressions of delight that
poured from the lips and hearts of all the
delegates, and especially warm and interest
ing were the comments of those whose
homes are in lands other than this. They
were accustomed, if ever, to see the govern
ing power afar off, and whenever royalty
parades in public there is much pomp and
mi Iitary display.
ave shall have to do away with mon
archies after this" exclaimed Rev. w. f.
Dawson of Glasgow. He was talking to
Bishop Hurst, and the remark was made SO
loudly that every one in the lecture-room
could hear it.
Rev. Ellery JGEes, an eminent and elo-
Quent Welsh preacher. said to Star re-
porter: " My visit TO America has realized
the consummation of my highest ideals in
the presence and magnificent speech of your
President. l should say that every rational
Englishman will return to England feeling
that republic is the only true form of gov
ernment. Never have | heard a man so ex-
pressing a heart of Christianity, and il his
position was simply the result of accident
of birth would never have expected such
a deliverance. The welcome he gave Meth
odism at the White House would have been
impossible at Windsor. If you rolled up
all the kings and queens we have ever had
since the days of the Conqueror down to
the Prince of Wales you would not make so
fine man as President Harrison, nor could
you get out of the composite such an able
and courageous speech as that we heard
this morning. l venture to say that more
Methodists in one day have seen and been
welcomed by the President of the United
States than in fifty years have been recog-
nized and introduced to the members of the
rOyal family"

CALIFORNIA IRON.
The Finest Body of Bessemer Ore in
the United States.

The Finest Body of Bessemer Ore in
the United States.
The Los Angeles Times claims that in
California and within It's miles of Los An
geles there exists the finest body of Besse-
mer iron ore, both in extent and quality, in
tie United States. Such is, however, the
fact. and this ore body is tributary to this
city, lying as it does near the line of the
Atlantic and Pacific Railroad, In the vicinity
Of Newberry, the first station east of Dag
gett.
1t is the property of the California Iron,
Steel and Tin Plate Company, who now
have a corps of engineers on the grounds
making surveys OF their holdings and also
line for a narr0w-gauge railroad from the
mines to Newberry, and also have number
of men employed developing the mines.
The ore body is solid mass Of Bessemer,
without rock or break, 400 feet in width,
of more than 5000 feet in length AMI OF ap-
parent great depth-300 feet of which is al
ready exposed.
Some Pittsburgh Pa.) men, Joined by
others of the West, now comprise the COM
pany. They contemplate soon putting up
two blast furnaces on the railroad at New
berry and other extensive works at some
point in California.
The parties interested have been busy for
several months perfecting their plans, and
are now ready to vigorously prosecute their
work. 1t is thought that Los Angeles
stands good chance of securing the pro-
posed works IL they are established.

Feeling Against Amerieans-Trouble Feared
at the Dead Sailors Funeral.
VALPARAISO, Oct. 17.-In relation to the
killing of a sailor from the United States
cruiser last night in a street row with some
Chilean sailors it is learned that pistols and
knives we're freely used on both sides. Only
one American was killed and five others Sc
verely wounded. Several Chileans were
also badly hurt This was the first time the
Baltimore sailors had been ashore for a
mouth. The Intendente of the city had as
sured Captain Schiey that his sailors would
be perfectly safe on Chilean soil. The feel
ing to-day between the Americans and the
Chileaus is very strong. Several additional
fights occurred to-day among the sailors,
but not so serious as yesterday. The dead
sailor of the Baltimore will be buried to-
morrow. An armed force will be landed
from the Baltimore to furnish q military
guard Of honor. Trouble is feared, as it
will be Sunday and election day.

Shortly after 1 o'clock this morning young
man giving the name Of George Smith came TO
the Receiving Hospital to be treated for a
knife wound in the right side, entering near the
tenth rib to depth OF some two inches that
possibly may have penetrated to the liver.
Smith had also three small inclsed wounds In

his clothing with blood. Assistant Police
Surgeon DR.. O'Brien, after dressing the
wounds, said the one 10 the side was serlOns, and
liable TO result fatally Smith. who desired 10

That without any pTOYucatiOn they had attacked
him. When lie defended himself. one Of them had

Inquiries were made by telephone at the hos

quirer, however, said that the man WHO was cut

THE METHODISTS.
Address by President Harrison at The
ECumeniCal Council.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 17.-Rev. DR.. Williams
of the Methodist Church of Canada presided
over the Ecumenical Council day. Charles
Foster. Secretary Of the Treasury, made n
short address. The announcement by
Bishop Wayman of the African NJ. E.
Church. that the colored churches had de-
cided unanimously in favor of organic
union, was received with applause. The
general topic of the day was 'War and
Peace" The first essay on international
Arbitration" was read by L. Shape OF
Liverpool. While he was reading his ad-
dress President Harrison and Secretary
Noble entered the hall. Everybody in the
church rose to their feet and there was
burst of applause as the President ascended
the platform. He was presented to the
Chairman, who, in turn introduced him to
the asSemblage.
THE PRESIDENTS REMARKS.
Another burst of applause followed, and
W hen this died away the President stepped
forward and said: Il came here this morn
Ing to make an expression Of my respect and
esteem for this great body OF delegates as
sembled from all the countries of the world,
and, much more, to give manifestation OF
my respect and love for that greater body of
Christian men and women for whom you
stand. [Applause.] Every Ecumencal Con-
ference is distinct step In the direction not
only of un ification Of the church. but of uni
ticatlon Of humanity. 1t is the natural order
that subdivisions should be wiped out be-
fore grand divisions. The church can be
united. You have to-day as the theme for
discussion the subject of international Ar
bitration. and this being public and an en-
larged use of the word, perhaps makes my
presence here as an officer Of the United
States especially appropriate. Arpiause.l
The subject is one which has long attracted
attention, and l think l may say has as
greatly attracted interest and adherence In
the United States as in any other Christian
power in the world. [Applause.l
