of the differences existing between the
idle wage workers and their employ
ers. A canvass of the members before
they went into session showed they
had no tangible plan in mind. 1t was

RAILROAD NOTES.
power Cars on Railways,

power cars on
The railroads are seriously consid-
ering the inroads made upon the pas
senger receipts of branch lines by
trolley competition and experiments
are being made with power cars, that
may be operated frequently and
cheaply.
The Erie has arranged for a series
of experiments along these lines and
has ordered a Cans motor from Eu-
rope in addition to an American made
gasoline car. The latter has many
good features for the service required
but it's cost is problematical owing to
the gradual, but none the less sure,
advance in the price of gasoline.
The Cans car is propelled by steam
and will carry about sixty passengers.
1t is equipped with an 80 horse power
boiler, anthracite coal being used for
fuel, and it's power plant consists of
two so horse power steam motors.
The Fries specifications call for a
maximum speed Of thirty-eight miles
an hour on level track and twenty-five
miles an hour on a grade Of 104 feet
to the mile. 1t must also be able to
haul a trailer at thirty-four miles an
hour or eleven and a half miles on
grades. The car will weigh about
three tons.
The machinery of the car will be
constructed in Europe and the body
built at the Erie shops. The first ex-
periments will probably be made be-
tween New City and Manuel Junction,
many of the small and now unprofit-
| aka Iroro1 1;roe will hn o0rirraI
with the double result of better ser
vice and a small profit.
The cars may be ruiz frequently and
J in addition to their usefulness on the
branches, may be used on main lines
between cities which are not far
apart and which need more frequent
service than can be given by the pres
ent cumbersome and expensive local
trains.
These experiments with separate
car is a distinctive feature from the
Identification of the suburban lines In
New Jersey and New York. The
Erie is credited viii carrying moro
commuters every day than any other
steam road leading into New. YorE
City and the business has now reach
ed the limit of the facilities, requiring
new and more rapid and elastic meth
DDS than is afforded by steam power
Iowa Central Annuls Trains.
