Hartman Plans to Equip With
Steel Passenger Cars.
Can Now BE Built as Cheaply
as Wooden Cars.
MINIMIZES DANGER
Weight Reduced to But 10 Per
Cent. More Than Old Style.
Gossip and Matters of Interest
in Railroad Circles.

Commenting on the coming intro
duction of all steel ears on the Harri-
man lines. Vice President Calvin of
the Southern Pacific says:
The matter has passed the expert
mental stage. Tests by the company
have demonstrated that such cars can
be made as easily. and. considering the
benefits afforded, as cheaply as wood
en- cars. The first car win be COM
pleted in about 60 days, and at once
put into use. Others will be installed
as fast as they can be built. Elec-
tricity generated from the car axle
and stored in the baggage car is to be
substituted for gas for heating or
lighting purposes.
This and the introduction of metal
equipment we expect will minimize
both the liability of wrecks and their
results. All steel construction, it is as
sumed. will prevent telescoping and
electricity eliminate the danger of fire.
We did not decide on the change until
exhaustive tests had been made with
two steel cars built for US in the east.
according to plans that we furnished.
All steel passenger equipment for
universal use has been the dream of
master car builders for years, but the
chief obstacle was the weight of such
a car The 60-foot day coach weighs
1000 pounds and a Pullman sleeper
from $4,000 to $50, 900 pounds The
increase in the weight in steel coaches,
according to special steel plates de-
manded. was about 1 3 per cent, so that
a train made up of metal equipment
and weighing 1901 900 pounds to the
car, could not be easily handled on
steep grades. especially in mountain
Gus territory.
Experiments made by the Southern
Pacific developed the possibility OF
producing a car Weighing not more
than 10 per cent in excess of a wooden
car, by using lighter but none the less
stronger. steel plate. These are to be
made for the special purpose Of car
building and the general equipment of
the Hartman lines follows. Later. it
is believed, steel cars can be built that
will be lighter than those of wood.
Although the Pullman company has
not yet made any all steel cars, 1t Is
understood that plans for them are be-
ing considered. All of the Pullman
equipment now being turned out en-
bodies recent improvements in the way
of all steel and heavily reinforced
platforms and vestibules. Tt is the
boast of the Pullman company that no
one ever saw Pullman car telescoped.
no matter how severe the wreck, and
these new innprovenne nts VIII make
them still more impervious to shock. Tt
is also recalled that in the recent
wreck of the Twentieth Century Linn
tied near Buffalo, the modern Pullman
cars, notwithstanding the high speed
at which the train was travelling. were
so little damaged that they are already
back in service Tt will be remem-
bered. too, that not a passenger was
killed and none seriously injured

Name the Crimes.

Mr.. Emery in his letter makes
particular mention of the necessity
Of furnishing men who commit
crimes against the whole people,
against the community, 1t is the
failure to punish these crimes that
has aroused the people not only of
Pennsylvania, but Of numerous
other states of the Union. Pitts
burg Leader.
What crimes? We wish these
Democrats, including Emery,
you'd file bill Of particulars.
We have been hearing about
crimes for years. 1t has been the
stock in trade of the Democratic
orators in Pennsylvania for many
a campaign. Heretofore we have
had something definite. The
crimes we're concealed, so it was
said, under the Treasury lid,
aud year after year the State has
been ringing with accusations.
"Lift the lid has been the cry
ever since there has been a Repub-
hcan party.
Well, the lid has been lifted.
Nr. Berry, who thundered his
charges from every stump last fall,
was elected for the special purpose
Of making these charges good.
Has he done SO? Everyone knows
that be has not; that on the con-
trary, he found no crimes to reveal
to an astounded people.
If crimes did not exist in the
Treasury department, where every
Democrat said they did exist, where
are they? Where can they posi-
bly, be concealed?
Time for Emery and the Demo-
Gratis to bring their proofs. We
nave had quite enough of this ac-
cusing blsiness-several years too
much of it. File your bill. l.-Phila.
