and Norfolk navy yards. Their ammuni-
ton supplies were replenished and they
are now. with possibly one or two ex-
ceptions. ready for instant service in al
most any quarter of the globe.
Admiral Dewey has taken considerable
precautions in the case of his own yes
sels, having dispatched them one by one
20 the big British docks at Hong Kong.
where they have been placed in as good
condition as possible outside our home
ports. Secretary Long has prudently de-
clined to part with the now numerous
feet OF auxiliary vessels acquired By the
government just prior to and during the
war. They were all inspected by a tech
nical board. which found that a number
OF them were not particularly well adapt
ed TO navy us5s. but the secretary con-
cluded that these vessels are stiu suffi-
GENTLY servceaole for mergency uses and
accordingly kept them in condition to be
commissioned at short notice.
As far as the army is concerned. while
the original force OF nearly a quarter OF a
million men called into the service by the
president has been largly diminished by
the mastering out Of many regiments and
organizations. it is the opinion OF exnert
military officers thai the army as a whole
IS really Z more formidable weapon now
than 1t was at any period during the war
The apparently paradoxical statement is
explained by the fact that such Of the
troops as are now in the service have had
the discipline OF several months hard
training; the men have steadily improved
in efficiency. and their officers know how
20 take care Of them. as wei as how 10

MAKING RAILWAYS SAFE.
WORK OF THE DUDLEY TRACK IN
SPECTION CAR.

For Twenty-One Years a Railway
Coach Has Been the Office, Work
shop, and Home of Mar. Dudley
and His Wife-Made the Mile-a-
Minute Express POssibIe-HOw He
Proves the Utility of Heavy Rails.
New York, Oct. 2S,--In the yard of the
Grand Central Railway station there
stands just now one of the most curious
railway cars in the country. Externally
it is of such ordinary appearance that the
uninformed passenger would not give It
a second glance. But it is well known on
every railway in the country. 1t has been
over almost every road from Maine 70
Southern California. The car. belongs to
Mr.. P. H. Dudley, who is described as a
track expert. He and his wife have lived
in it for twenty-one years. AThey have
Travelled in 1t all over this country and
Mexico. 1t is Mr.. Dudleys private office,
workshop and library; it carries his in
struments, books and other paraphernalia
Il is Mrs. Dudley's parlor, dining room
and kitchen; it contains her piano. her
sewing machine and general household
utensils One end Of it looks like a daughts-
mans office; the other end resembles fo1
all the world a cosy little New York fiat.
Every person who rides comfortably and
safely on railway trains has direct in
terest in this constantly moving home OF
the Dudeys From it have emanated
some of the most radical Improvements
that have been made in railroads during
the past score of years. In this car Mr..
Dudley invented the Empire States Ex-
press, which is capable of running at the
rate of seventy miles an hour. That is,
he determined by means of his car and
the intruments within it the conditions of
track and roadbed necessary for a con-
tinuous speed of over a-mil-a-minute He
has done similar service for several roads,
for he owes no allegiance to any one COM
pany In fact, it is generally agreed thai
he Is not TO belong to any one system. His
decisions gather weight from his
independence. He is the unbias-
ed arbiter of disputes; tray
cling Judge of the knotty problems
of railroading. Attached 10 way trains
expresses or freights, his car is dragged
over all the roads while he makes reports

tions, and the result was permanent
"set' in the rails in humberiess places
along the line-a condition WHEN acted
heavily against high speeds. AS a mat
ter Of fact the 6J-pound rails had 10 be
replaced with S0-pound rails, since which
time fhe difficulty has greatly,
Tho stremmatograph with which Mr..
Dudley makes his calculations, apparently,
Is very simple instrument Its prnci-
pie is to record on a moving strip of metal
the molecular compression and elongatlon
of the rail as the train passes over t.. As
matter of fact. the instrument Is firmly
attached 10 the edge OF the rail surface
a two points. When a wheel passes over
the small section OF the rail between these
two points the elongati0n of the metal
causes pen pointer to draw an Irregular
line on the moving metal plate. The r-
regu,arities of the line correspond in size
to the tensions and compressions produced
in the rail. The line is drawn in ink and
one can see on il the mark made by every
wheel in the train, from the big notches
made by the drivers. to the small ones
made by the wheels of a caboose.4
This then. is the purpose OF the Dudley
car, and these the occupations of its own
err This home Is one of the most curious
on earth, but it's utility has been thorough
~ proved. The general public owes much
OF its comfort in travelling to what has
been evolved within the coach. Doubtless
in the years to come IL Will owe much
more, for Mr.. Dudley IS indefatigable in
search of new ways 70 ride his hobby But
even If he discovers nothing new hence
forth, the fact that he has rendered posi-
bic and comfortable the mile-a-mnute-
express should endear him forever to the
great army OF American travellers.
