Has Been the Means OF Securing Large
Contracts From Foreigners.
London. March 2S..-The order for 30
locomotives given by the Great Northern
Railroad company 60 the Baldwin COM
pany OF Philadelphia is causing much
comment in engineering and official
circles here The contract stipulates the
delivery OF che locomotives i'm four
months. ana il seems that the British
manufacturers needed IS months TO do
the work.
III. j. Watts. chief locomotive superin-
tendent OF the Great Northern railway.
who is now in the United States with
other English railroad men studying the
American automatic coupling system,
writes that he is surprised at the great
capacity of the American locomotive
works. II IS understood that further
orders from the Indian and Australian
governments have been given 10 the
Baldwin company The same capacity
for speedy delivery secured for Ameri-
cans The contract TO build the Atbara
bridge. I'm the Soudan, TO the intense dis
appointment OF British firms. none OF
whom. however, were able TO guarantee
the delivery OF the necessary iron work
within the prescribed time
In contrast with the promptitude OF the
Americans IL may be mentioned that the
Soudun railroad had TO wait four months
for small bridge weighing 81 tons. IL
will perhaps be found that all the first
batch OF locomotives for the Soudan will
be OF American construction.
