RACE WITH A wATgRsFour.
Passengers Mexican Train Have n
Thrilling Experience.

Recently there was a race run be-
! tween a passenger train on the Inter
| oceanic and waterspout. The race
was declared a draw, as the train es-
| capped from the immediate effects of
/ the watersDout, which burst against
| the crest of mountain, bus the i'm
menSe volume of wafer poured down
| the mountain sid along the roadbed,
and finally caught up with the train
and inundated it SO that the passeng-
ers had to be taken off in handcars.
The particulars of this unique race
are highly interesting. 1t was the
daily passenger train from Puebla to
this city, and q large number of pas
sengers were aboard. About 80
o'clock the sky became suddenly COW
cred With masses of black clouds. An
Inky WaterSpout culebra, as il is called
| by reason of it's resemblance TO Il with
ing serpent, hung from the heavens
and advanced rapidly in the track of
the moving train. There was great
excitement among the passengers. The
people in the third class coach. who
had the best view of the phenomenon,
went down on their knees in praying
for deliveranee.
One lady had a nervous attack and

Of the panic aboard his train he de-
cided To show the cutebra his heels.
Then began the prettiest race on rec
gers as the stakes. Upgrade, down

bridges and over the Levels, flew that
passenger train, with the waterspout

curve and at the same moment the

the mountain side. The water poured
down the slope in raging torrents and

briS on its bosom. threatened to engulf

but another sharp curve interviewed
and the engine jumped the track. The
engineer saw the danger and reversed
the lever and applied the brakes. The
engine rolled down the embaukmenr,
but the rest of the train, including the
tender, remained CA the track.
The next moment the mass of water
struck the now stationary train, and
flooded 1t to tho level of the platforms.
The passengers and crew were helpless
to do more than look ,;iJ 10 see what
had become of the engineer and fire
man, supposing them killed. But they
both scrambled, or rather swan out of
the window Of the overturned cab and
clamhered back on the train.
This happened in the vicinity Of San
Antonio Capulalpam, state of Tax
Gala. a RELIEF train was dispatched to
a point as near az 1t could get and the

then begins, stops. and then pounds
again before the final stoppage.
Ihere are many causes of these COL
lections of water, but the most prolific
one is an improper alignment of the
steam pipes, by which there is left be-
tween the boiler and the radiators a
sag in the pipe. In order to get heat
from the steam the steam must circu-
late through the pipes to the radiators
and then return to the boiler in the
form either of wet steam or water. Any
spot in the whole system where the
water gan lodge will obstruct this cir
culatfa and cause n pounding. Where

quently caused a trap in them. Other
traps are found at time in globe valves,
where the steam has to dive down I'M
der diaphragm to get through the
valve. This can be remedied by the po-
sltion of the valve so that ii stands at
an angle of IS degrees from the vertical
instead of straight up. In other cases
the radiators are not level and water
gathers in them and makes a trap. In
a single-pipe system. where the steam is
fed in and the water returns by one
pipe and valve, this has been found to
be caused in a number of cases by
lack of provision for the elonGation of
the pipes when they were heated. This
expansion of the pipes win life the end
OF the radiator where the pipe is at
tached and make a trap at the other
end.
In double-nipe systems radiator
may be set to humping by having the
steam partly turned on while the return
valve is closed, or by a leaky valve let
ting little steam into the radiator
while 1t is supposed to he out Of use.
Even in well-set up systems, where
there is not a decided drop back to the
pipes toward the boiler all through
their course, great humping may re-
suit from suddenly turning a full head
of steam into cold pipes and radiators.
Under these circumstances so much
water will be turned into the cold pipes
that it will block part of the level por-
tons of the pipe and make n great
rumpus before it can get back to the
boiler and leave the pipes clear again.
The remedy for this is simple-don't
turn on the steam so rapidly.

RECORDS INCOMPLETE
They Do Not Show the Verdict
in the Moody Case.
A MOTION WILL BE MADE
The County Attorney VIII Ask That the
Record Be Made Complete and If
It Is Denied an Appeal

Judge Clancy will hold session of
court tomorrow morning and some
thing of interest is promised when the
minutes of the Moody trial are read and
come up for approval by the court. The
minutes show only that Moody was ae-
auitted on the jurys verdict of not
guilty and make no reference to the
previous verdict of guilty of murder in
the second degree. which was suppressed
by the court, who refused to receive II.
The prosecuting attorney will object to
he record and will ask that they be
amended to show the proceedings of the
peculiar trial more in detail and that
the murder in the second degree verdict
be Incorporated in the minutes, which
request will doubtless be denied by the
court, from which an appeal will be
taken.
A request will probably be made of
the court also to set a date for the new
trial of c. NJ. Oliver, which has been
ordered by the supreme court. because
the information charging him with rob
berry did not allege that the act was
