BIG SAVING PROMISED.
BY the Use of Ignite on Freight
locomotives


Locomotives.
ST. Paul, Feb. 23.-The Northern
Pacific railroad yesterday made a
trial Of burning Ignite on it's mail
line with the view of adopting Iig-
nite-burning locomotives for freight
The test, which was made under the
supervision of G. ]. Wilson, super
intendent of the Northern Pacific
line in North Dakota, was most sue
cessful. The new Ignite burner
which as been in use for the past few
months On the Bismark, Washburn &
Great Falls railroad, was borrowed
for the occasion. 1t was attached to
one of the regular through freight
trains of the Northern Pacific at
Mandan and sent through to the end
of the division, which is at James
town, a total distance of 10G miles.
The actual running time was 5k
hours, which was covered at an
average rate of twenty miles an hour,
which is considered a fair speed for
freight transportation. The amount
of fuel consumed was seventeen tons.
Taking this test as basis OF COM
putation, the Ignite coal will afford
a saving of from 25 to 80 per cent. on
the cost of fuel. This successful
trial is very suggestive, if it can be
shown that the record made yester-
day can be performed in regular ser
vice it means a complete revolution
in the type of locomotives now in use
in the region tributary to the Ignite
mines. This region includes ali or
