TROLLEY TO PITTSBURG
PLANS OF ELECTRIC RAILWAY CON-
PANIES WILL PERMIT 1T.
Opening of Line from Pittsburg to

aire Will Bring 1t About.

A trip of 496 miles by trolley, from Pitts
plans of the electric railway companies are
carried out The opening of the road from
Pittsburg to Wheeling, w. Va, and the
contemplated extension to Bellaire, o., Is
the beginning of the line connecting the two
cities. The line to Bellaire from Indianap-
oils will be 364 miles long, and If the line is
extended to Wheeling and Pittsburg it will
make the latter city the hub of a vast cleo
trio system, extending in all directions. The
plan is considered feasible even where the
electric lines come In sharp competition
with the steam roads,
The longest continuous electric road thus
far running is from indianapolis eastward,
via Richmond, Dayton, Springfield and Co.
lumbus to Newark, o., a distance of 226
miles. Another line now under construc-
tion will extend from Newark to GAINESVILLE.
about twenty-six miles, where there will be
connection with the Ohio River & West
ern. The road is in operation from Zanes-
vile to Bella;re, 112 miles, making the total
distance from Indianapolis to Bellaire 1854
miles.
The connection of Indiana and Ohio was
celebrated few days ago. This road is
made up of five companies. Three other
companies, the Columbus, Buckeye Lake *
Newark, Newark & GAINESVILLE and the Ohio
River * Western, will afford connection
from Columbus to Bellaire, and the Wheel
ing Traction Company will complete the
link to Wheeling. Many of these lines now
in operation parallel steam railroads, show
ing that they do not fear DID, established
competition. This is particularly the case
between Columbus and Indianapolis.

Demands of Operators.

A committee representing about 1900 ,tele-
graph operators and a like number OF
freight handlers employed by the PennsyI-
vania Railroad Company on the lines East
of Pittsburg and Erie, yesterday. submit
ted 10 General Manager Atterbury list Of
demands. The telegraph operators are en-
ployed at the smaller stations along the
line, and these ask of the company vaca-
ton of seven days every year; two days a
month off for men who work twelve hours
daily and an increase of pay for operators
at junction points, where business is heavy
The freight handlers demand a shorter
week and increase in wages. Most of
the demands made by the telegraph opera
tors have been granted to employees in the
Maryland division, between Philadelphia
and Washington. There will be a further
conference between Mr.. Atterbury and the
committee. 1t is estimated that the con-
cessions, If made, will cost the company
about 100000 annually.

HEAVY TRAVEL TO WEST
PEOPLE WHO HAVE SPENT THEIR
VACATIONS ARE RETURNING.
photographers Much Agitated Over the
Introduction of the Telephone for
Sending Messages.

The seashore excursion season will close
Sept. 10. 1t has been the most prosperous
season since the cheap rates to seaboard
pleasure resorts were established. Inc
Pennsylvania, the Baltimore & Ohio and
the other roads in the agreement have car
ried fully $4,000 passengers. The heaviest
travel just now is that over the roads lead
ing west from the seashore resorts. All
summer there have been excursions TO the
coast, and while some of the excursionists
returned home within the time limit Of
their special tickets. many remained in the
East, paying the extra fair for their ex-
tended limit. There have been several ex-
cursions TO New England points, thousands
went on vacations and are now returning.
THE general public, said passenger official
has no conception of what a tremendous
business has been done east and west bound
this year. Heretofore Niagara Falls and
Atlantic City were the only points TO which
low rates were given. This year the ex-
cursions to New England points carried
many thousands and did a tremendous
regular business in addition" local rail-
road man said: There Is pretty fair Idea
of what this means, but running an ex-
cursion means special trains. to be run
with extra crews on special orders; often
there is scarcity of Pullman cars, at
least there has been this season, and the
situation taxes the wits of the whole offi-
cial force to accommodate the people prop
erly. But this is only an occasional test;
almost from the time the first train arrives
at the excursion destination there begins
a Western business that continues until
late fall, and to accommodate these peo-
pie trains must be kept in readiness. with
already too few cars this business is a con-
tinual problem, coming il does when
the heavy fall shipments in merchandise
are moving West, and it taxes all the
trunk lines to handle it,"

ID. e. O.'s Big Engine.

The Baltimore & Ohio has placed an Or
der with the American Locomotive Com
pany for tandem compound locomotive
that will be. when completed. the heaviest
ever built in the country. 1t is known as
the Mallett Articulate type, and modified
examples are being used abroad to some
extent none. however, being as urge as
the b. & o. engine. There is peculiar ar
rangement of the drivers and cylinders.
The forward cylinder is high pressure, while
the rear one is low pressure and the great
power of the engine is apparent when it
is considered that the entire weight of the
locomotive, 2S5,000 pounds, rests on the
drivers, there being six pairs of driving
wheels. The locomotive is built as an ex-
pertinent, and will be used as a helping
engine on the heavy mountain grades to
demonstrate its usefulness in this class of
service. 1t is hoped that it will be COM
pleted in time to give Ii a thorough road
test before being sent TO the st. Louis
worlds fair.
