THE RUSSIAN TREATY.

No Agreement Yet Reached by the

WASHINGTON, March 29.-The Senate
Committee on Foleign Relations held a
meeting this morning. 1t is understood
that while favorable to making public the
text of the Russian treaty they were un-
able to agree upon a favorable report by
reason of disagreement relative to the
correspondence accompanying the con-
vention. y well-known Senator, a
champion of general humanitarian
legislation, stated that when published the
treaty would be found neither more
nor less Objectionable than several other
treaties in operation for some years. The
criticisms, he says, are due to concep-
ton of the effect of the instrument
based upon garbled extracts in sur
reptitious publications of the treaty first
sent to the Senate.

WAR ON GRADE CROSSINGS.
Chicago Will Abolish Them by Compelling All
Railways to Raise Their Tracks.

CHICAGO. Feb. 23-The City Council to-
night declared war on grade railway cross
ings. and passed an ordinance which is In
tended TO abolish them etfectually. The
ordinance provides that all railroads en-
tering Chicago shall elevate their
tracks above grade, so that the
passage of vehicles and pedestrians will bo
permitted underneath. The tracks are by
the ordinance divided into three divisions,
and the work of elevation on the
first division must begin July
], 1853, and the last division
completed by July ]. 1897. The measure
will probably be bitterly fought by the
railroads on account of the enormous ex.
pense of the work, which will amount to
several hundreds of millions dollars.
The city will insist on obedience TO
the ordinance because of the strong
sentiment existing against grade crossings
about thirty-fve lives being lost on them
during the last year Several of the roads
declared some time ago. when the subject
was first brought up. that they would be
compelled TO have terminals outside the
city limits If such an ordinance was passed.

PURDUE AND RAILRoADING.

Novel and Important Experiments with Lo-
comotivcs and Fuel.
Special 20 the Indianapolis Journal
PURDUE UNIVERSITY. Ind, Feb. 23.-One
of the problems which has long occupied
the attention of railroad locomotive build
ers is that of obtaining from locomotives
the highest results with the least eX-
penditure of material. Great progress has
been made in reducing the cost of motive
power on railroads. and yet no mechanical
engineer will admit that the maximum
power has been attained for a given ex-
pepditure of fuel. Purdue is the only in
stItution of learning which has q modern
locomotive as part of its apparatus. A
rare locomotive it would be If it should be
placed on q track. IL stands in the build
ing of Purdue devoted to mechanical en-
cheering, and is set on large wheels which
prevent movement, u sort Of q tread mill
for locomotives. The purpose OF intro
ducing locomotive in this eOnnec-
ditions of the application of steam
TO locomotives. The engine performs all the
functions of an engine, except that 1t
does not move. 1t is so arranged that
gauges show the amount of power attained
and the speed.
The first of series of experiments was
made yesterday afternoon in the presence of
number OF railroad officials and experts,
among whom were William Forsyth. me-

cars on o straight and level track

All :he preparations were made 20 attain
accurate results The coal was weighed,
the water measured and all sorts of gauges
and indicators marked the result. The
railroad representatives carefully noted all
the results, their interest showing that
they considered the experiment, with those
which will follow 1t, to be very impOrtan {
tests. The test of yesterday was TO show
the result of the application of steam under
certain conditions IL will be followed by
I'm the method of the application of steam.
When they are all made, it will be easy to
tell that form of application W hich will
afford the greatest power at the least cost
