LOCOMOTIVES FOR CHINA.
First Big Shipment Ready to be Made
to the Orient.

Philadelphia, May 3.-As the result of
a contract entered into by the Baldwin
Locomotive works, of this city, with
the Chinese government, there are now
u locomotives, nearly completed and
almost ready for shipment, standing in
the company's shops This is the first
order of any magnitude ever received
from China by any American firm.
The contract for these locomotives,
which includes four passenger, four
freight and four shifting engines, was
received some months ago and they
have been constructed upon general de-
signs furnished by the Chinese govern
ment, while the various details were
prepared by the firm. In appearance
they resemble the ordinary American
locomotive. although there are several
features that are distinctly English,
principal among which is the mounting
of the tenders. These, instead of being
mounted upon two four wheeled trucks
like the tenders of the American en-
gines are mounted upon three pyramids
of two wheels each. The tenders are
also larger.
The engines are to be used on the
Imperial railways of North China.

Will Establish Systems at Heavy
Hills or Grades.

Russell, May 3.-ConsiderabIe interest is
manifested by railroad men over the in
augurat ton OF the puSher system by the
Union Pacific.
Under this system, pusher engines will
be established at the various hills or
heavy grades on the line to assist freight
trains This will enable trains to increa Sc
their tonnage from 80 TO 40 per cent and
will decrease the number of trains and
employees necessary to transact business
of the line. This order will result in en-
engine being kept at Brookville to assist
trains through the Harler hills to Kano-
polls and probably one at DOrrance to
assist up the grades between there and
Bunker Hill.
