The Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe IS

comotives. Twenty-Five of these en-
gines are designed to burn soft coal,
the balance being oil burners. These
locomotives have the distinction of be-
ing the heaviest ever built for regular
road service. For several years the
Santa Fe has had in service heavy To-
comotives of the consolidation ESQ

the Mkados esp, which approached
in total weight and power the heavy
locomotives previously in use on the
Santa Fe. The following table gives

The new locomotive is 1s.44O pounds
heavier than the decapOd, which here
tofore has been the heaviest in the
world. The decapod, however. has 1920
pounds more weight on drivers than the
Santa Fee type. The Railroad Ga
zette states that the cylinder power of
both engines is the same, the tractive
effort being about g. 900 pounds. The
boiler of the new engine is the same in
general design as the boiler of the de-
capod locomotive, except that the new
locomotive has but 391-2A in. tubes 20
TT. long, whereas the decapod has 463-
pa in. tubes 10 #. long, the respective
areas of cross-section of boiler barrel
occupied by the tubes being 80 and 50
per cent. The new engine has 594 SO.

capod. but the improved circulation in
the boiler of the former will, no doubt,
increase the efficiency of each square
foot of tube heating surface The wider
spacing will also facilitate cleaning the
boiler and lessen the accumulation of
scale. Both engines have the same

and boiler diameter.

PRESENTED CHURCH $500.
Santa Fe Does the Right Thing by
Emporia Congregation.

Emporia. Kan, Oct 1.-THE Santa
Fe road made the Methodist church
present of $500 for the new church This
was recently reported by the financial
committee of the church. The railroad
gave the church the $500 with the I'M
derstanding that the church will not
bring suit for damages because OF the
fire which destroyed the old church.
The railroad, however, is not so much
concerned about the church bringing
suit as it was about the insurance com
pany in which the church was insured.
The railroad did not pay the money to
the church, however. till after the law
of limitation was in force This was
two years after the fire. The fire oc-
Cured on September 3, 1901. and this
year on September 8 the limitation law
was in effect and the railroad handed
over the coin. Yesterday at the Metho-
dist church the pastor encouraged the
church people not to be backward about
coming forward with the coin on the
shares they took out when the church
debt was raised The $500 donation by
the railroad will help out considerably
and was a generous act on the part of
the Santa F'e.

Mr. Winchell has had a brilliant ca
reer in railroad service. He first came
into prominence in the passenger de-
partment of the Kansas City, Fort

he was appointed general passenger
agent of the Frisco line, with head
quarters in St. Louis. when the Frisco
was owned by the Santa FTe. Sube-

and he will be frequently called from
