coast lines, was in the city making
tests as to the foundations necessary

directly affecting the shops, have been
hanging fire for year because of va
rious delays. Now 1t seems probable
that they will go through with a rush
where extensins are absolutely neces
sary.
The delay. however. will result in
even greater Improvements than were
shop will be much larger than first
outlined. The building which will oc-
cupy the site of the present boiler shop
and much additional adjacent ground
south end will be on a line with the
present machine shop, and the north
end will extend nearly to Kingman av-
enue. 1t will give it a capacity of 81
pits, or practically double the present
one, and will be fitted for the handling
of the heaviest locomotives that are in
use on the system.
With the completion of the new ma
chine shop, the present one will be
converted into boiler shop. The great
er portion of the present machine shop
is practically new, having been erected
four years ago, then believed to be
large enough for the needs of years to
come.
The new building will be construct
ed entirely of steel and brick. con-
siderable concrete being used especial
ly in the foundations and engine pits
1t will be as near fire~proof as posi-
BILE to make it. The transfer table
between the boiler and machine shops
will be extended the full length of the
new building.
The other improvements include the
37-stall roundhouse, the general store
house and office building, the COM
pletion of the new yards now under
construction, the double tracking of
street, the steel viaduct in Mt. Vernon
avenue, which Will be more than 1000
feet in length, and numerous other
minor jobs, all of which will represent
an expenditure of half million of dol
lars for this point within the next few
months, inclusive of what has already
been expended in the past three or
four months.

Ms1E. GOULD TO ENTERTAIN.
She Will Throw Open Her Palace to
Americans.

Paris. Feb. 19-An intimate friend
of Nine. Gould says that one result of

palace, powder puffs folly and the
"chateau of CASTLE soap" Nine.
Gould will hold a weekly reception

Lantry Marshaling Forces.
Work of boring the additional two-track
tunnel of the Santa Fe railroad through
Ration mountain. eighteen miles south of
this city says the Trinidad Advertiser,
will begin about March /. The contractor;
c. J. Lantry. of Fort Madison, Ia, arrived
here yesterday and will at once begin
marshaling his forces of contractors,
foremen and 1aborers. Six hundred men
will be employed and the tunnel is to be
completed not later than September 1, 1908.
The tunnel will be $50 feet below the
present single tube bore, and as a result
will enable the trains on the Santa Fe
to get over the hill without the need of a
pusher or second engine.
This will be a great help to the Santa
Fe especially in making time, as much
DELAY is caused owing to the steep climb
that the trains have to climb.
The new tunnel will also admit OF trains
passing each other in the tunnel whereas
now with a single track they have to wait
on sidings while a train is in the tunnel.
The lower grade is also a great improve
ment as it will make it possible to do
away with all helpers" The length of
the new tunnel will be considerably more
than a mile and will be one of the rail- |
road engineering feats in this section OF
the west
