ON A SPECIAL CAR.
Directors of e. p. & ME-. Railway
Making An Inspection Of The

Road.
Attached to the incoming Texas and
Pacific train this morning was the
private car Paso del Norte, of the E.
P. & N E. railway, having on board
a party of directors of the road and
their wives. The party included G. II.
Wehles, Mr.. and Mrs. 81. M. Boies,
Henry Belin, Jr., Miss Belin and Miss
Mcleod
Mr.. Boies, who, with Mr.. Belin, is
largely interested in manufactures in
Scranton, said, regardingtthe trip: u
went over the line of the proposed road
two years ago to Alamogordo and be-
yond with mule team, and 1 am anx-
ious to see the road. as it Is now in its
completed state. We shall make q
thorough inspection of the workings OF
the road.''
Mr.. Boies was unwilling to cay that
the present visit of his party had any
thing to do with the further extension
of the road.
After an inspection of the local de-
pot and offices of the company, the
visitors, escorted by President G. b.
Eddy, were driven through this city
and Juarez. On their return. special
train. consisting of the Paso del Norte
and a day coach, was in waiting to
take them out on the tour of inspec-
ton. This train left at noon; the
party will return to Ell Paso Cd Thur e.

Santa Fe Annual Report.

The annual report of the Atchison,
& Santa Fe for the twelve months to
June 80, of which proof sheets are DOW
at hand, discloses q substantial ad-
vance over the favorable results at
tanned in each of the previous years OF
the present company's operations.
Though the outcome of the corn crop
in the company's territory was not es-
peeially favorable last year and while
the yield of winter wheat.in Kansas this
year fdecreased about % per
cent, thes expansion In earnings
was heavy, amounting to 81, 299, 400,
following an increase In the previous
year of S., 5Sl ZOO. The last six months
of the fiscal year was marked by q
steady reduction in the abnormally
large charges for improvements of the
road way and equipment, such heavy
expenditures having been feature of
the compsny's police since the lines
were taken over from the receivers.
The reducing in working charges thus
brought about permits a gain to be
shown IN net earnings of 3d. SO, 400
practically the same amount as record

THE SANTA FE COMPANY
Has Asked For Bids For Fifty Con-
Soliddted Engines.

The Santa Fe company, through Mr..
John Player, superintendent OF ma
chinery, has asked for bids from all the
large eastern locomotive works for the
construction of fifty large consolidated
engines. The lowest bidder will be
given the contract for fifty engines.
The bids will be opened early in Oc-
tober, and il is the intention to have
the first delivery made in Decem Der.
The delivery of the engines will prob
a oily not be completed before next
May. The engines will be built in &C.
cordsnce with plans drawn up by Mr..
Player, and will be similar to the con-
solidated engines turned out of the
Santa Fee shops here with the excep-
ton that they will have a greater pull
ing capacity. The engines will be
built for power exclusively, and will
be used in freight service. The new
order will be a substantial addition to
the Santa Fe's rolling stock. The
smaller engines, the big consolidated
will displace will be dis
among the branch lines and
the San Joaquin Valley road. The
fifty engines will cost the Santa Fe
over half million dol
lars.

THE DOUBLE HEADER SYSTEM
Condemned BY the Employees of the
Santa Ee.

The members of the general griev-
ance committee of the Santa Fe have
returned from Galveston, where the
question, of double-herder trains was
discussed with the officials of the
road. Prominent order men here say
that the contention OF the employees is
misunderstood. It Is made to appear
that the company in putting On the
double engine service does 80 with the
sole purpose of reducing operating ex-
penses and that the move is resisted by
the order upon financial grounds, they
seeking to prevent reduction in the
number of trainmen employed.
While they believe that the losses
by accidents and rough handling would
more than Offset the gain to the com.
pany by reason of reduced train force,
the railroad men do not prominently
urge that phase. They are afraid to
go out on the double headers, and don't
deny the fact. They claim that the
pilots and draw bars of engines are not
for heavy service and that
q man takes his life in his hands when
ever he mounts q train pulled by such
hazardous connection.
The employees here in Ell
Paso state that it Is
the hazard to life and limb that is the
basis of this opposition, or in others
words that the issue is the ''dollars VS..
liyes'

that by the opening of next spring the
steel rail mills will be farther over
sold than ever before In their history
at prices ranging somewhere from $50
to $40.
To all appearances there will be q
general advance in the cost OF iron and
steel making for next year by reason OF
contemplated advances, cost OF ore at
dock and cost of transportation. Other
elements of cost will probsb ly be add
ed, as, for instance, cost OF coke and
bttuminous coal. The strong proba-
bilities are that 1900 will be banner
year and that higher range OF prices
will prevail uninterruptedly. A enor-
nous amount of business has been
thrown aside this year which will de-
mand the consideration of manufacture
ers on the first opportunity. Product
i've capacity is trotting and the con-
sumptive requirements are galloplne,
and iron and steel makers will proba-
blp remain masters of the situation for
some time to come.

FIFTY TON COAL CARS.

The body transom 10 OF
ordinary width and the draught tim
bers are of usual construction. The
surprising thing is the light weight OF
the car, which is actually lower than
that of a good thirty-ton car. The saw
ing in weight is largely obtained by
using stills and posts of small section,
depending on light truss rods for re-
quisite strength.
OF them the railroad editor OF the
GIobe-Damocrat has this to say:
For a time it was thought that 60, 600
pounds WIS the maximum limit Tor
wooden care, and that, when larger
capacities were required, they would
be constructed with steel underframes,
and possibly entirely of steel. Coal,
fiat and box cars of 10000 and $4,000
pounds capacity have been built OF
wood in large numbers in the past
year, but some roads have drawn the
line at 80, 900 pounds, and built their
coal cars of that capacity OF steel. A
bold step has been made by Califor-
mia road in contracting for a large
mum Der of coal cars 40 feet long and
of 100. 900 pounds capacity, with the
frames built almost entirely OF WOOD (,
with numerous truss rods In the sloe
and end posts.
The service of these cars will be
watched with interest. for II they are
found adequate for SO large lad1ng,
and repairs are not expensive, they
will demonstrate that much useless
tim Der has been used in wooden cars in
the past. The master mechanic be-
lieves that wood ia not the proper ma
aterial for cars of fifty tons capacity,
and that such cars will coon fail in the
underframe, as we'll as in the super
structure. The satisfactory perform
ance of fifty-ton steel coal and ore
oars should soon lead to the construc-
ton of steel underframes for box cars.
How q light box shall be built so as to
carry fifty tons of grain successfully
and with light repairs is one OF the in
teresting problems now before the car
builders. Shall 1t be of wood or steel,
or q com bination of both2 The wood

GREAT FUTURE.
Iron And Steel Makers Will Be
Kings Of The Railroad Word In

Contracts for q quarter million tons
of steel rails have been placed already
for delivery during next year, says the
Railway Review, and about as many
more will be contracted for before its
close. Prices have advanced in east
ern markets to about S35 per ton, while
steel billets at mill are about $3.50
Bessemer pig has advanced at 1923 at
furnace or thereabout, and further ad-
vsnces are said to be imminent.
Opinions OF very well informed people
concerning the probable demand for
steel rails during the coming winter
are far from being in accord, but thos-
who Judge of possibilities ia this direc-

A STORY OF THE rebellion.
Stealing OF the BALTIC. and Ohio En-
gines During the War OF the
Rebellion.

There have been various stories
written about the stealing of the Bal
timore and Ohio engines at Martins
burg, w. Va, during the rebellion
and their transfer across the country
for service on Southern railroads by
Col Thomas Sharp, who is still living
in Ohio. Recently, an Official OF the
road made some inquiries OF cd en-
ployes who were at Msrtinsburg at the
say that Oh June 10, 1861, 200 men of
Gen. Stonewal Jacksou's command
were detailed to destroy the Baltimore
and Ohio's equipment at Martinsburg.
They piled wood and GOAL over forty
one engines and nearly 400 cars and
then set fire to them. Only ten or
twelve of the engines, however, were
seriously damaged, and these not by
the fire, but because the water was
frs let out of the boilers.
Col. Sharp arrived in Martinsburg
on August Is. 1861, aud remained there
until the following March, engaged in
removing engines, machinery, etc. He
took eight engines across the country
over the turnpike, either to Stanton,
Winchester or Strasburg (and tn ere
are some historians who disagree on
this point), thirty-twO horses being re-
quired 20 haul each engine. He also
removed all the duplicate parts of eng
ines and cars and ell the rough iron at
the station, and took away all machi-
merry and tools, which were afterward
used in the Southern arsenals. The
country around Martin sburg is::extrem-
ely billy, and the work of getting tie
engines over the country roads requir-
ed cons derable engineering ability.
It has beer currently reported in
late years that one of the locomotives
w8s the Winan's camel-back, No. SO,
which at that time was numbered II,
but Col. Sharp did not care for this
class of engines and took only ten
wheel and passenger engines. There
was only one eight-wheel locomotive
taken and that was No "a. Some years
after the war Col. Sharp was employ
ed on the Baltimore and Ohio road as
mas ter OF usportation.-Ex.

take the view that the recent action on
the part of the Beers does not make war
a certainty. though it does place the
British cabinet in a position where 1t
must take steps so aggressive
that war or utter, ignomini Gus
submission will be the only
/ alternatives remaining tothe Transvaal,

ing the government to move, except in
the matter of hurrying troops to the

and an attack is expected at any hour.
