N year. That is what the insur- t. N ance investigation revealed to v ba the income of the McCurdy family from the Mutual Life. It is more than suspected that, stupendous as this amount is, it does not tell all the story, for there are large number of subsidiary concerns connected with the Mutual from which such thrifty family might extract further revenue, and from the indications they are not just the sort of people who would over look chances of that kind. Some inter- ested people have figured on the prob abilities and estimate that in the last twenty years the McCurdys have taken out of the Mutual and related compa- mics at least $15,000000. Yet the head gof the clan McCurdy has often said ithat mutual insurance is a beneyo- aence, a philanthropic, missionary en- terprise, as it were. It should be all fhat. But it seems that under the right sort of manipulation benevolence and philanthropy can be made to pay. While providing for the policy holders after death, they can also be made to bring in not unhandsome returns to the Insurance officials during life. Great is benevolence, especially the kind that is kept in the family.

The most unique railway in the coun- try and one that appeals to business men of both the city and country is proposed for Joplin, Mo-. and surround ing towns. The feature of the road is that instead of electric power gasoline motor cars are to be used, which will not only save the expense of installing power plants and maintaining trolley and feed lines, but will eliminate the danger to life that is always found in electric lines.

The average cost of con struction of the European railroads per mile is estimated at S107, 7,577, while for the remainder of the world the es- timate Is only $59,6S0.
 The total value of the railroads of the world, according to these statistics, is $43000, 100000, of which the Euro pean roads figure for S22,000,0 1000, 900. The estimate for rolling stock is as follows in numbers: Locomotives, 150,- 900; passenger coaches, 225,000, and freight ears, 100000.

Heaviest Switching Locomotives In the World Used on That Line-Some Interesting Railway Statistics -A Unique Road Planned For Joplin, Mo.-Sante Fe to Build CutoR.

Plans have been perfected by the Pennsylvania Railroad company to place orders for 1,500 pressed steel passenger'coaches, which will entail an expenditure of over $7,O00,oO0 and which marks the first step of the great railroads of the country to abolish the wooden cars and substitute metal, says the Pittsburg Dispatch.
 The management of the railroad has had such an order under consideration for several months, and as result or. ders for the usual annual equipment of passenger coaches were practically withheld.
 The cars will be constructed entirely of steel, and their adoption will elimi. nate the telescoping of cars and the danger of fire following smashup. It is understood that the greater portion of the cars will be used in the fast linn ited service between New York, Pitts burg and Chicago, while the rest will be used in suburban service in crowded districts.
 The success of the steel coaches used on the Long Island railroad, a subsi- diary concern of the Pennsylvania, which were placed in service as an ex- pertinent, is the primary cause of the big order. The coaches of the Pennsyl- vania, however, will be much larger and will be a few feet longer than the present wooden cars.

The heaviest switching locomotives in the world have been placed in serv- road, says the New York Herald. Two are at Collinwood, O., one at Ashtabu- la and two at Elkhart, Ind. The weight of each of the monsters, includ- ing one tender, is 419,600 pounds, or nearly 210 tons. The capacity of the tender is 5000 gallons of water.
 When the Bessemer railroad in- stalled yard engines weighing 391, 400 pounds, or 250, 300 pounds without the tender, and with a tank capacity of 1000 gallons, all records for size were eclipsed It was predicted that loco motives of such size would not be a success. If ever they got off the track it would be mighty job to get them on again. It was reasoned that if such mammoth rolling stock ever came into general use heavier rails would be re- quired and bridges would need to be strengthened.
 Since that time, however, nearly ev- cry road in the country has been pre- pairing for mammoth locomotives by laying heavy rails and replacing old bridges, and the introduction by the Lake Shore of locomotive larger than the giants of the Bessemer is another step in development. The locomotives built by the Brooks works of the Amer ican Locomotive company and just h. stalled by the Lake Shore are 2S,200 pounds heavier than those of the Bes- semer. The engine without the tender is 19,700 pounds heavier. The capacity is 800 gallons greater.
