The Locomotive of the Future.

President Mellen, of the New Haven road,
is apparently not at all frightened by the
advance of the trolley and announces that
1T will be the policy of that road in con-
trolling its electric lines, to do ali possible
TO develop them to the fullest extent. He
says the interests of the steam line will be
disregarded where the New Haven has both
steam and trolley, and the trolley line will
yield the largest profit regardless of COM
petition. President futile, of the Boston Sc
Maine. and Vice President Van Etten. OF
the New York Central and resident man.
aSer or the Boston az Albany, are firmly
convinced that the steam locomotive will
survive the present generation for freight
usage, anyway. President futile is very
emphatic in his belief. holding that by it's
nature the steam horse" will be always
needed for climbing grades and hauling
large loads. No large type of engines has
dence in the future of the electric motor
doubtless explains his attitude i'm buying
up trolley lines in Connecticut, but the gem
eral opinion of railroad officials is that
freight engines will be i'm operation even
when suburban trolley lines go whizzng by
at the rate of two miles a minute. Presi-
dent Pritchard, who has just returned from
Germany, where he investigated the prob
lem of the electric road, says he Travelled at
the rate OF 136 miles on a car seeing Ber-
lin and experienced no discomfort there
FROM but the more conservative railroad
men believe that the use of the trolley sys-
TEN. for the next generation or two, will
go no further than this one phase of trans
portation.

e;it demand Tor ali kinds. and it required more
than the usual amount O! argument as well as
time 20 consummate sales. There practically
no competition for the heavies. class OF steers
and in numerous cases bids were such that sales
men evidently did not believe that they would
be justified in accepting. Buyers claimed that
some OF the cattle in this line overesti-
mated. Therefore the market was dull, and Ii
was finally generally admitted that all that
SOLD were around l5c lower than the close OF
last week. There fair trade for the fat
steers OF light 10 medium weight, but the de-
mand was hardly equal to the supply and prices
were also about 15c lower than last Friday. The
demand for feeding cattle is hardly large enough
10 test the market. but evidently there is an
easier tendency in values. in sympathy with
reduced prices for fat cattle. The market for
cows to-day was possibly high yesterday
but generally reported loo TO 15c lower than the
close OF last week. There was fair request
Tor few fancy heifers, but aside from that
the demand was very poor and the outlet vas
rather slow at probably fully 15c lower prices

pear &c be much. If any, change in the bull mar
ket. and good calves sold early at about steady
prices. but later all kinds lower end there
was a very bad market for the common thin
