OIL for Locomotive Fuel.
The recent extensive developments OF oil
wells in Texas will soon play an impOr-
tant part in the fuel markets of that sec
are concerned. at least. The experiments
made by railway companies with oil as an
engine fuel have proven satisfactory from
a financial standpoint and have also met
with favor with the travelling public. as 1t
does away with the smoke and cinder nui-
sance. The officials of the railroads that
traverse the oil fields OF Texas are now
contemplating equipping their locomotives
to use the liquid fuel. President Hays Of
the Southern Pacific favors the plan, and 1t
to be a good engine fuel. arrangements will
be made at an early. date for the adoption
of oil as fuel on the Atlantic system,
which extends from New Orleans to FL
TO install large oil tanks at division points
along the system. While the immediate
outlay for the equipments for oil will be
heavy. yet there will be a great saving in
the end, besides the general desirability Of
oil as a fuel for other reasons.
The OF Ter railway systems that pene-
trate the new oil fields of Texas are the
Santa Fe and the Kansas City Southern.
