New Soldier Organization.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, December 14.-A new
organization of war veterans, intended
to be national in character, will be
brought into existence at a conference
to be held in this city this evening.
It will probably be cbristened the Ma
tioual Old Soldiers aud Sailors league.
The promoters say that while the or
ganization may some time in the fu-
ture obtain political significance. II is
not Intended to enter into competition
with the Grand Army. The explicit
object of the orpanizstion is to aid
former sailors and soldiers who are
now out of employment or may be In
the future to secure new positions.
This will be done through the ipstru-
mentality of local and state committees,
which will investigate the records Of
applicants aud procure work for them
If they are worthy. The claim is
made that the wearing of the G. A.
r. button often initiates against
veterans 10 dealing with would-be en-
ploy ers, and this Injustice it is pro.
posed to remedy through the new or
RaniZatiOn.

will be demonstra' ed tonight, when
the primari's of the organization will

members of the county committee for

Get himself. There is, however. q
good deal of opposition to the congre 's-

long as generally supposed. Inves;iga-
tion in this direction recently made in
Germany show that the average loco
motive has to be withdrawn from SER
vice after travelling about 500, 600 miles.
This does not include the time the loco
motive is under her own steam without
pulling q train. During the period q
locomotive is in service 9 number of
parts have to be repaired or renewed.
For instance, the boiler and are-box
have to be renewed three times, the
tires Of the wheels five or six timee,
the driving cranks from three to Eve
times. After a half million miles Of
active service the average locomotive
is no more worth repairing and Is en-
tire withdrawn.
