TRY new HEADLIGHT
WITH A NOVELTY IN ILLU-
GIINATION
ASSURES ABSOLUTE SAFETY
The Device Lights Track for ollie,
and Also Throws a Beam
Miles in the
Air.

CHICAGO, Feb. IA practical DEM
onstration of the utility of a new de-
parture which, it is claimed by railway
officials, will effectively prove the solu-
ton, in a large degree, Of the railway
collision problem was made last night
on the Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul
railway near here. The device consists
of an exceedingly powerful headlight
which not only perfectly Eliminates the
track with an intensely brilliant light
shaft for a distance of a mile, but also
embraces the striking and novel feature
of q beam of light of almost equal
brilliancy penetrating over ZOO feet above
which can be clearly seen ten miles dis
tant.
1t is thereby possible for approaching
trains to absolutely locate each other by
this vertical shaft of light, though miles
apart, and it is this feature which rail-
road officials claim will eliminate the pos
sibility of collision. This vertical beam
Will, in hilly country especially, where
curves in the track are numerous, so
positively fix the location Of trains that
nothing but carelessness on the part of
the enginemen will permit collision.
The apparatus consists of a powerful
electric arc headlight, a dynamo and
steam motor, all of which occupy the
space on the locomotive usually devoted
to the headlight. The dynamo which gen.
crates the current for this veritable
Searchlight occupies a space Of less than
fifteen inches wide, directly behind tie
headlight and is operated by a motor
driven by steam impact on a turbine
wheel The current is 5000 candle power,
which can be reduced to any degree of
brilliancy at the will of the engineer.
Given Practical Test
One Of the heaviest passenger engines
-
experimentally equipped with this head
light, drew a special train a number of
miles out of Chicago last night and a
practical demonstration Of the working
apparatus was given under the super
vision Of Charles w. Adams, formerly as
sistant general passenger agent of the
Pennsylvania system.
At a distance of half a mile the tele-
graph pole and framework of .Ae sema-
phores were clearly defined, while the
track bed itself was distinctly visible for
one mile. Straight above the locomotive
shaft of light as thick as a mans body
penetrated the darkness and persons
posted ten miles away reported that it
was clearly distinguishable. This is an
entirely new departure in headlight illum-
ination and railway signals
1t Is further proposed to convey signals
of distress or other communications when
trouble occurs between telegraph points
by the use of colored glass to color the
vertical ray of light.
Among those aboard the special last
night Veg H. P. Williams, general man.
ager of the c. NJ. & St P; w. J. Under
wood, assistant general manager; c. A.
Woodward, general superintendent; +. A.
Miller, general passenger agent and ]. +.
Gibson, division superintendent, and 1t
was their unanimous opinion that the
headlight was thoroughly practical and
would become one Of the future requisites

be dissatisfied with the scale of wages
now in effect. a meeting of the trainmen
will be held soon at which the question
Will be fully discussed. 1t is said that
the dissatisfaction applies only to the
brakemen on divisions where increases
were recently asked. These include the
river and La Crosse divisions
Some weeks ago the brakemen, through
their general grievance committee, APP
piled for increases in their wages. it de-
VelopS that the officers of the company
have declined to accede 20 the demands
on the ground that the wages paid on
this system are as high as those paid by
the North Western and other competing
lines.
These demands are in line with the re-
quests of railroad employees all over the
country for advances in their wages on
the ground that the companies are earn
