Model Locomotive Engine

The Baltimore & OhioRailroad has
just placed in service ON its Chicago
Division three new passenger engines,
built at the Baldwin Locomotive
Works, after new designs furnished
by the Gent Superintendent of Mo-
tive Power of the b. s. O. Company.
The engines weigh $4,000 pounds,
have driving wheels six feet six in
ches in diameter, cylinders 10 by "a
inches, and are without doubt the
the finest passenger locomotives run
ming into the City of Chicago today.
Companions of these new engines
have developed wonderful power and
speed in hauling the famous Royal
Blue Line trains, which run between
New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore
and Washington, over the Philadel-
phia Division of the b. 4 O. Rail-
road. The b. & o. has added over
forty new, high class engines to its
motive power equipment within the
last sixty days, and others are under
construction. While constantly add
ing engines of approved design and
highest grade to its motive power,
and passenger coaches of Pullman
standard to its rolling stock, the b.
Il 0. is also expanding large amounts
for additional second and third
tracks and sidings, and improved fa-
cilities at terminal points. BY the
time the Worlds Fair is opened for
the reception of visitors the b. 4. O.
will be well equipped to handle, ex-
peditiously, the large volume of pas
senger traffic which will naturally
seek this picturesque route from the
Atlantic sea-board to Chicago.

old Papers or the Custom-House

The removal of the Annapolis custom
house from its location on the City dock.
TO frame building adjoining the oyster
packing house OF j. Russell Il Co., facing
the harbor. brought to light some inter
esting old papers among the archives OF
the department. These documents show
that the Annapolis custom house is one
of the Oldest custom-houses In the coun-
try. Some of the records were dated
as far back as 1704. They were written
on white linen paper and were in good
state of preservation. Several of the let
tiers were signed by the earlier Presidents
of the country One of the documents
bears the name of John Randall. ESQ,
who was collector of the port of Annap-
oils in 1904. Ii is stated that Mr.. Ran
dali. who was the father of the late Hon.
Alex. Randall. had been offered the po-
sition of naval officer of Baltimore be-
fore the Revolution. The collectofship
of the port of Annapolis appeared to have
been more congenial TO him. however,
both on account of the compensation,
which was In excess of the pay OF the
Baltimore naval officer at that time, and
because his family resided here, and Mr..
Randall recommended his nephew. DIR.
Delozier, who held the Office for num-
Der of years Mr. Randall was collector
of Annapolis for a long period.
In tearing down an old residence on
East street, to make room for new
structure, an old British copper coin was
found dated 1851.
