s. p. IMPROVEMENTS
The Throttle of Progress Wide Open. Tie New Manager Talking
 Things liam:

The Southern Pacific k. R. has com menced the extending and improvement of its equipment fer the handling ol traffic and will expend millions in mak- ing the system second to none in the world.
 These improvements will extend over the entire system, and as an important division point Yuma will come in for 8 big share of this vast expenditure-in fact the company has already spent many thousands of dollars increasing it's traffic facilities here within the past few months. and the improvements are still going Cn. It is said that. forty million dollars will be expended on the system within the next two or three years in replacing the present rails with the heaviest and best made: re- building all bridges. tiestleS and cui- yerts, using stone and steel in place Of wood, ,straighteniHg curves and reducing grades wherever possible: bnilding better terminals; buying the most mod crn locomotives and rolling stock: in general securing the best equipment in the world fer heavy traffic.
 The Southern Pacific management Is determined to control the Oriental trade in spite of the other systems that are looking that way. No expense will be spared to put the road into condition to carry every pound of transcOntinent- al freight, if called upcn to do so. and it is claimed that by the use of oil as fuel and the running of heavy trains the cost of carrying freight to and from the Pacific seabcard will bc reduced to q minimum, and that no other road that exists CT that may hereafter be built can attain to the same advantages as are now possessed by this system.
 As to proposed expenditures for new construction it is well known that the policy Of the new management is to construct feeders and great activity may be looked for during the next few years in this territory and in Sonora, Mexico.

4 TIMER BADLY WOUNDED.
Shot by Conductor of Freight Train
 Near OgiIby.

A miner whose name could not be learned, was brought into Yuma, Mon day with his skull crushed by bullet from pistol in the hands of the con- ductor of freight train from the west, at point near Ogilby in California No further particulars could be learned other than that the man tried to board the train and was shot by the conduc- tor. When first brought in his lcf. side was paralyzed and he Was able to speak.
 He was operated cn by the railroad company's local surgeon, who removed the broken fragments of skull that were pressing on the brain, which par italy eliminated the paralytic condi- tion, so that the injured man was en- abled to go oR to Los Angeles to be cared for by the company, though still in quite a serious condition From meagre accounts of the affair it appears that the conductor should be dealt with severely.

TESTS
TO BE MADE OF THE DIFFERENT
KINDS OF COAL USED TO FIRE
U. P. ENGINES.
Freight Locomotive to Be Kept Going
Between Laramie and Cheyenne
for Two Weeks and a Close Rec
ord Kept of the Steaming Qualities
of Coal from Four Different Mines.

The Union Pacific is just how begin
ming a thorough test of the different
kinds of coal used on the Wyoming di-
vision for steaming purposes, and for
that test engine 1927 has been assign
cl to the run between Laramie and
Cheyenne.
The tests will be under the direction
of George Likart, an expert on such
matters, who has been here for sew
eral days arranging the details. The
coal to be treated comes from the
mines at Hanna, Rock Springs, Carbon
and Piedmont. and each will be given
the same sort of test in the furnace of
the 1927. The engine will run two
weeks between the two terminals, in
charge of one crew, and under as near
ly the same conditions every trip as
| possible. The tonnage will be noted
to the pound. the steam pressure the
amount of coal consumed. the amount
| of ash left, and everything that can be
used to determine the steam produc'
ing qualities of the three kinds of coal
will be noted.
The specimens of coal from each
mine will be treated perfectly uniform
as far as it is possible for the engineer
and firemen to do so, and the test made
to determine the most available coal
for locomotive purposes. MI. Likart
will keep tab on every movement OF
the engine.
