bringing a number of men from New York

when the strike ends
For some days past special cars have
been arriving at Drifton, Eckley, and Up
per Lehigh in the Lehigh region, full OF
SiaFs and Huns, with about five or SIX
woman in every car TO do the cooking.
These men are distributed in houses in
the three towns and while they can tell
nothing about what is expected of them
the reason of their arrival is clear to the
strikers. The men say they were put or
the cars at New York and told they were
going to some place where they could get
work. More than that they do not know.
Eckley and Upper Lehigh are chiefly
occupied By workers at the Coke collier
les. The Coxes have not offered the TO per
cent increase and there is ruuSaT; that
they viii attempt to replace the strikers
by the new mon, but this is not believed

RAILROAD NEWS.
Effect Of Larger Engines on
Housing Facilities.
Santa Fe's Topeka ROundhOuse
and Appurtenances Taxed.
SOME ILLUSTRATIONS.
Compounds Barely Clear Doors
and Pinch Turntable.
The New Shops on Their Way
Are Greatly Needed.

As the Santa Fe keeps building and
buying larger locomotives the big round
house and its appurtenances are taxed
to contain them Every stall is plenti
fully used by the large number of en-
gines that are housed and overhauled
there.
Some of the engines are so huge now
that it is a veritable squeeze to get
them in the roundhouse- Some of the
big compounds cannot be put in certain
stalls, owing to the fact that they will
not clear the doors and in going through
the others 1t is a matter of squeezing
almost for the cab to clear by a couple
of inches on either side.
When the big flyers and buShers that
crowd close to a hundred tons are put
in, the roundhouse turntable shows the
effect of the expansiona few years have
made in locomotive building. The pres
ent turntable comes close to being over
taxed and the big engines must be bal
anced to a nicely TO get them around.
Third Vice President Barr and General
Manager Nudge in touring the shops
yesterday with the heads of the ma
chinery department, were interested
spectators in seeing one Of the new
Rhode Island giants put on the table
and housed yesterday afternoon. Per-
haps an improved turntabIe will be in
stalled now. The present one is not as
easy to push as a baby carriage.
No. 800, the largest locomotive ever
built at the Topeka shops, had to be
brought around through the yard from
the erecting shop to the roundhouse,
when turned out a few days ago. 1t
could not be transferred direct because
of the wooden turntable that otherwise
must be crossed between the erecting
shop and the roundhOuSe.
It is evident that engines ever increas-
ing in size make problems for the rail-
roads in caring for them. If they get
much larger the facilities for handling
them must be improved. even here in
Topeka. The cramped quarters within
which shop work on locomotives is being
done is emphasized daily. and the new
shops now building will be a great re-
lief. The company is providing itself
more room by the proposed additions,
upon which work is already started, and
the completion Of which can not come
any too soon.
