This train will have the highest class
Of equipment and will stop only at
the important points.
Another train, No. s. will leave
San Francisco at 5 p. M over the valley

Joseph j. Tynans selection as gen.
erai superintendent of the Union Iron
Works, under General Manager Nc
Gregor, is taken as an indication of in
creased commercial and shipping de-
velopment on the Pacific Coast The
preparation on the part of the Union
Iron Works to be able TO handle in
creased work is pointed out by those
familiar with the conditions to be a
forecast of a greater industrial activ-
ity than has probably been experienced
in the western country for many years.
Mr. lyman is considered one of the
ablest men in his line of work in the
United States He was formerly super
intendent of the Cramp shipbuilding
yard in Philadelphia and has left that
position to come to San Francisco. Not
only is the new superintendent recog-
MED for his shipbuilding knowledge,
but he is distinguishing himself also
as an inventor. Many of his inventions,
on which he holds patents. are now in
general use throughout the country.
While it has not been announced that
important changes will be made in the
manner of conducting the big building
concern, it is probable that Mr.. lyman
will inaugurate a number of improve
ments, based on his experience in other
places. He is expected to arrive in
San Francisco by the end of this week.
