MILLIONAIRES As ENGINEERS.
Some Men Who Know How to
Run a Train.

'John Jacob Astors exploit il

another illustration of the peculiar
fascination that railway locomo
tive has for rich young men who
inherit or acquire interests in rail.
roads," Gays the Railway World.
"Mr. Astor has for several years
been a director OF the Illinois Cen
trail railroad, and on the previous
official inspection trips he has run
the engine. He has a natural
taste for mechanics, and his love
of railroading is much like that of
DIR. Seward Webb. In the Adj
rondacks DR.. Webb and his per-
sonal traits are known to every ma
tive, and his passion for driving a
locomotive at high rate of speed
IS regarded with complacent pride
all along the line of his road.
When a one or two-car special
dashes through the mountain re-
gion from Old Forge to Malone at
a fifty-mile gait the simple noun
tainecr will turn placidly to his
summer boarder and remark:
'Dr. Webb is running that train.
Occasionally The trackmen, on
their morning rounds, will find the
wreck OF hand-car lying at the
bottom of the railroad embank-
ment or several yards from the
track at the edge OF the woods.
Their invariable comment will be:
THE Doctor must have been along
here last night 1t is seldom that
anybody is hurt on such occasions,
for the Adirondack railroad men
are experts in jumping from hand
cars. George j. Gould was able
to handle a locomotive long be-
fore he became a railroad presi-
dent. Like DR.. Webb, he is a
genuine sportsman, and enjoys the
sensation OF going fast While
his periodical inspections
of the several lines in the South
western system, President Gould
frequently relieves the locomotive
for hours at time.
Frank Thomson, vice-president of
the Pennsylvania lines, knew how
to run the engine almost as well
as any veteran. Two of the sons
Of James ] Hill, the president of
the Great Northern, are said to be
as much at home in the cab OF a
locomotive as they are in the din
lng-room of their fathers house.
S. II. ii. Clark, president of the
Union Pacific, has taken all of the
degrees of railroading, and he can

WASHINGTON, Dec. "a. Further de
tails of the killing of the two Ameri-
can Sa lOrS attached to the United
States fleet i'm Japan. have been re-
ceived here and have been brought to
the attention of the state department
which has begun an investigation.
Montgomery. ii appears, was killed in
Yokohama Sept. > last. He was not
intoxicated. but was murdered by n
boatJnan. Epps' case was similar, cX-
Ccpt that he was killed at NagaSka
during the present month. He had
been on leave and was returning
aboard ship when murdered. The teS-
timOny gathered shows that he was
perfectly sober, and some sailors on a
passing ship hearing cries for help,
locked over the water in time to see
him thrown from his boat. Lacking
Il small boat they could not succOr him.
His body was found several days later
floating in the bay. The japanese gov
eminent was appealed TO in each case,
and. while some arrests have been
made. the American contingent in
Japan feel that the perpetrators of the
murders are still ut large. 1t is said
that every Japanese boat in the har-
Dor is obliged to register it's passcn-
gers before carrying them off shore so
ii ut. under ordinary conditions it
should be easy to find the guilty
parties.
At the Japanese legation it was stat
cd that the matter has not yet been
brought to. their attention. The lega-
ton officials do not regard the matter
as serious. They say that the Japan
csc government gives the amplest pro-
lection to foreigners, citizens and sail
OrS. and that if there has been any
laXity in these cases the government
undoubtedly will make the fullest in
Quiry ard reparation.
