Government to Control Roads.

The Mexican government has com
plcted arrangements to exercise con
troll over all the important railroad
lines operating in the republic except
three or four. II is believed that the
government will ultimately become a
stakeholder. and. strictly speaking,
the manager of every line traversing
any part of the territory. no matter
how small n road may be. The Ma
tional lines of Mexico and the Cen
trail are already groups in the govern
mrnt system. The Pan.American rail
road, which Is owned by a st. Louis
syndicate the Vera Cruz and Pacific
and the two Hartman railroads. re-
main private property, The eXpecta-
ton Is that the government will fin
ally submit propositions for control
in these Independent lines. and Their
form several distinct groups Of lines.
lIarriman's Sonora railroad runs
from Tucson. Arizona. on the South
crn Pacific. TO the port of Guayms~.
on the gulf of California, Harriman's
new road, which is now in course of
construction, Is called the Sierra Ma
Dire road because 1t runs alongside
the Sierra Madre range parallel to the
coast of the gulf of California. The
new line connects with the Sonora
railroad and runs southwardly to Qua
dalajara. Hartman apparently in
tends to build from ~Guadalajara to
this city and from here to a point on
the coast of the gulf of Mexico.
The government will probably ar
range to get practical control of the
Independent lines. Then it will. no
doubt, form the various roads into
groups.
Nothing has been done yet as far
as can be learned. for the govern
ment to get control of the st. Louis
%syndicate's road, the Pan-American.
No announcement has been made
regarding the st. Louis s%yndicate's

mcnt that the trained man Is needed
most these days, and there he finds
work to which he can retadily adapt
himself. First he Is rodman In the
office OF a division assistant engineer
or In the construction branch of the
department. After serving his term
as rodman he Is sent to Altoona.
Altoona. Penn. Is known as the
seat of the greatest railroad educa-
tional establishment in the world,
Since 1871 the Pennsylvania has train
ed its men there, and some OF the
highest executive officials in the gen
eral Offices In Philadelphia went
through the sev'Se course. When
the maintenance of way novice
reaches Altoona he Is put to work IN
the yards. These yards are seven
miles long and contain about 10
miles CT tracks. The novice, VINO
may he made dizzy by the maze or
tracks at first, learns the intricacies
of shifting, how to keep car records
10 MANIPULATE signals. to classify cars
and 10 do many another thing which
he has TO know all about before he
can rise.
Altoona yards are left for the road
The graduate has now become an as
sistant supervisor and is assigned 10

steel rails AMI learns to tell when
they are as they should be. Crossties.
ballast, tie-plates, nuts, bolts. bitches
for drainage-all these have to he
known thoroughly. Then, perhaps
the assistant becomes a full-fedged
supervisor: after come the grades OF
assistant engineer and superintend-
ent. When the college man gets to
he a superintendent he has qualified
as a railroad expert.
For the college man trained as me-
chanical engineer there is a special
course at Altoona. He becomes a
special apprentice" as distinguished
from the regular apprentices who
have had no training. The special
apprentice is put through a four
years course the like of which is not
to be found anywhere else. He goes
through the shops boiler, black
smith, wheel. car. tank. and all the
rest. Part of the time is spent in the
draughting room and part in the test
ing room. Three months the railroad
student devotes to firing an engine
on the road, acquiring such know
ledge of the working Of a locomotive

than hundred thousand pounds The
fine un-cured goods expected did not
