STEEL RAILS GROUND TO DUST.
Effect OF the Constant Wear and Tear
on II Railroad.

As consumers of steel. the railroads
in the vicinity of Pittsburg lead the
world. During the past three months
40 miles Of new steel rails averaging
9o pounds 10 the yard have been put
down or distributed within thirty
miles OF the center of the city.
There are 1866 yards in a mile.
which would mean 299, 200 yards for
one mile Gf rails in 40 miles. or 26,
S2s, 900 pounds. or say ID. SO pounds
for both lines of rails, or 2G9. 2s3 tons
o: steel rails needed in one year for
Pitlsburg roads. 9t per cent OF which
was for renewals on old lines.
There is somewhat of Il mystery re
rarding where the steel worn out on
Il big road goes to. 1t Is ground

III" constant friction ui the grinding
wheels, and th!S friction il II per cent
yr.ater on carves than Oh straight
stretches Of track. The wear is also
mash greater on ascending grades on
straight track than on a descending
grade. On curves the wear i mostly
lateral or horizontal. while on straight
track It is perpendicular with slight
inclination toward the inside. of The
