THE statement attributed to me in

Catholics in England, is so palpably alb
surd that until it had been made the
subject of comment 1 never supposed any
body could be misled by it, or would con-

'As 1 have the honor of numbering
among my own friends several Catholics
who hold Office under the English crown,
I beg that you will publish my exact
words.
"While discussing Englands rights of
intervention under international law, as
distinguished from her rights under the
convention of 1884, 1 referred to the wide

be true, it shows that these laws are
bigoted and illtberal but not that they
are inadequate to the protection of life and

UNION PACIFIC ENGINES.
Some New Baldwin Locomotives Re-
ceived Worthy of Mention.

Mention has previously been made,
says the Railway Age, of the fact that
the Brooks Locomotive Works were en-
gagged in the construction of 40 10-Wheel
locomotives for the Union Pacific. This
order is now nearly filed, some of the
engines having been delivered. The
engines are especially noteworthy for
the reason that so far as our records
show the driving wheel weight exceeds
that of any 10-Wheel engines previously
built, while in other respects they pre-
sent evidence of being unusually pow
erful machines.
The total weight is 10000 pounds, of
which $4,000 pounds are on the driving
wheels, the latter weight being given on
the authority of Mr.. J. H. Mcconnell,
superintendent of motive power of the
Union Pacific, under whose instructions
the engines were built.
The cylinders of the Union Pacific en-
gines are 20 by % inches and all the
valves of the Allen Richardson type.
The steam and exhaust ports are 1917
inches in length by rs and "a inches in
width respectively. The greatest travel
of the valves is 81 inches, outside lap
rs inches, inside lap none and lead in
full gear is 1-16-inch negative.
The boiler is of steel, IS inches in di-
ameter, of the crOwn-bar wagon-top
type, to carry a working pressure of
frames and dimensions are ia by IL
inches There are 242 charcOal-irOn
tubes 2 inches in diameter. The fire
box and arch flues afford a heating sur
face of PSI square feet, the tubes 2,343
square feet, making a total of 1874
square feet. The CRATE area is BIB
square feet.
The smolzebox is II inches in diameter
outside and SO inches long. The ex-
haust nozzle is double and permanent,
3 9-16 inches in diameter and the tip is
located 271s inches below the center of
the boiler. The stack is of the dia-
mond pattern, 1914 inches in diameter and
AZ inches in height, with wire netting
at the top. The height of the top of
the stack is 16 feet IA inches above the
rails
The driving wheels are 81 inches in
diameter, with cast steel centers and
driving axle journals are 9 by II inches.
The tender has a. wood frame and the
tank capacity is 5000 gallons of water
and u tons of coal
They weigh ITO, 900 pounds.
