WIRELESS TRAIN idea
New Discovery Brings Dispatcher

PREVENTIVE OF ACCIDENTS.

Union Pacific Railroad Installing on

The actual control OF running trains
by wireless telegraphy took a step for.
ward when the Union Pacific railroad
recently equipped one Of its Iocomo-
tiyes with wireless device by which
q train dispatcher may sit at his desk
and send an order right into the cab

road within talking distance" Of his
machine, says the Washington Star.
And. since talking distance" is gov
erned only by the strength Of the cur
rent and can be heightened at win, 1t
VIII be seen that the new discoveries
Of the railroads wireless expert, DR..
Frederick Millener, VIII forever put an
end to those accidents that have often
resulted when some telegraph operator
failed to deliver a train order which
had been sent him.
In an emergency Of this kind the
train dispatcher VIII now simply touch
a telegraph key, and far out on the rail-
road line. In the cab OF the locomotive
which Is In danger, gong will begin
ringing, and before the eyes Of the en-
gineer red light viii fash, while a
miniature semaphore. painted red, will
rise to the danger" position, and both
the engineer and fireman win know
there Is deadly peril ahead for them
selves and their train.
AS yet only the one locomotive has
been equipped with the wireless appa-
ratus, but so well does this operate and
90 satisfactory is its work that It is
only a question Of a short time until
every locomotive on the system is 1T
ted with the safety device.
With wireless sending stations every
hundred miles along the main line,
DIR. Afillener says the dispatchers win
be In absolute touch with every en-
gineer on the road at every minute
and viii be able to communicate with
either should It become necessary to
do so.
The instruments are simple and
compact. The sending apparatus
which Is placed in the shops Of the
Union Pacific In Omaha occupies less
space than any wireless sending ap-
paratus ever built.
The current, generated by a dyna-
mo, goes into an interrupter at 90
volts and there is transformed and
transferred into between 100000 and
100000 volts. Franklin plates are used
as conductors. A Massey cooling de-
vice Is used to keep the disrupture
discharge points cool. In the tuning
coll the alternating current Is changed
into a high voltage oscillating alter
mating current from which II Is con-
Quoted to ground and anchor cap and
thence to the antenna, where It is dis
charged into the air.
The antenna ON the cab OF the loco
motive picks up the current, carries 1t
down into the cab and into the receiv-
ing instruments within a brass box
not unlike a fire alarm box. On the
front Of this box is the big gong, whose
ringing can be heard above any noise
that can be made by the locomotive.
Just above this gong and on the face
OF the box are the little red semaphore
and the red danger signal. and when
the gong sounds the semaphore goes
to danger" and the red light flashes.

WOMAN F0RGER WHO
WAS BOLD IN her WORK

Rather a clever piece of crooked
check work developed Monday evening
when Sheriff Wilson detected tnat
three of his Cancelled checks, secured
from the Pingree National bank. were
well executed forgeries Two OF the
checks were drawn for $12 each and a
third was made out for 500 All OF the
spurious paper was made payable to
Hulda Blumquist and bore the forged
signature OF B. B. Wilson, sheriff Of
Weber county. Two OF the checks for
$12 each were cashed at different
Driver drug stores and the third was
cashed at the George f. Cave drug
store. In all cases small purchases
were made by the same woman, who
represented that she had been employ
ed as a cook at the court house and
who received the amount of the check.
less the amount of the purchase made.
The checks wero all made In a YER
teal or back hand style of penman,
ship. and then signed by a clever imi-
tation of Sheriff Wilson's signature.
The checks were all Dec. 20. 1908
and passed through the bank without
the forgeries being detected.
It is understood the officers arc
pretty well satisfied as to who did the
work and are trying to locate the man
and woman who turned the trick SO
successfully.

UNIQUE METHOD USED TO
SMUGGLE DRUG into PRISON

Warden Maxwell of the Nevada
State prison a few days ago discover
cd an Ingenious method by which NOR
phine has been smuggled into the pen
itentiary.
Lately there had passed through
the warden's hands a number OF let
ters. all from the same person and
Ledecked with one-cent stamps, the
writer never using a two-center. This
faet. while queer did not arouse un'
Que suspicion and probably would
have been passed by with little
thought had not a letter arrived ono
Gay to which one and two-cent stamp
were affixed. Maxwell scanned tho
missive closely. The letter was not
heavy and any writer should have
known that one stamp WIS sufficient
to carry It, And also that 1t Is against
postoflce regulations to put one
cent stamp on first class mall, even
when more than two is necessary,
The warden made close eXaminn-
ton and could find nothing iaside OF
out, on which to withhold the leg
ter, and was about TO turn it over
to the prisoner to whom 1t was al
dressed. Partly by accident he ran
his letter opener under one of the
stamps. and there poured forth from
the puncture small quantity of finc,
white powder Investigation provea
1t to be morphine. Under the other
stamp also WAS quantity of the drug.
and the gummcd flap of the envel'
ope was bulged with the stuff.
Other letters were opened and more
morphine was found concealed In tho
same manner. Needless to say. none
of the missives reached the parties
for whom they were intended.

PIECE W @ R K
CAUSES A
PROTEST
TWENTY-FIVE CAR REPAiRERS
QUIT THE s. P. SHOPS.
Men Claim They Cannot Make Wages
Under tho Now Condltlons-Why
They Object to System.

The piece work system recently
adopted by the Southern Pacific CON-
pany in the Ogden car repairing de-
Eartment is not proving satisfactory
to employees, who say they are un.
able to make the wages they should
owing to the fact that too much timo
is required to assemble repair ma
terial for uso-and the time thus
used up Is their loss.
Under the old system car repaircrs
were paid from twenty to twenty-four
cents per hour, according to their
competency. and they worked nine
hours per day This brought these
men from $50 to S2.16 per day. Tn
der the piece system the men claim
they fall below this wage fully rs
per cent. AS a result, about twenty.
five car repairers have quit during
the last few days and others are like
ly to follow in the immediate future,
unless the system is changed and the
car repairers given certain guaran
tee.
In conversation with a reporter, one
Of the car repairers said:
"The piece system would be salts
ed In repairing cars was placed with
in the immediate reach OF the men,
or IL the cars which need repairs
were all assembled at one place, but
this Is not done ana. as a result, the
bad order cars are scattered over a
wide area, and repairers have to
chase here. there and everywhere in
order to get material for use and. then
tramp back to the car to which they
have been assigned. AS A result OF
this condition, more time Is lost in
chasing for material than is spent in
actual cur work The men are re-
uuired to work in the water, mud
and cold and no protection is given
during the most inclement weather.
In the opinion of car repairers the
piece system Is decisive failure, go
far, and If 1t is conunued any length
of time there will be heavy shortage
In one Of the most important depart
ments in the Ogden shop plant
"It is understood the Union Pacific
has the piece system IN operation at
cheyenne, but the men are guaran'
iced regular wages. and. If this moth
cd was adopted at Osden the result
would be satisfactory to the car re-
pairer.
"Of course, the system was intro
duced here simply as an experiment,
only a part of the force being put on
piece work. but everything indicates
row that the old method will be re-
sumed In the near future, and In that
case there will probably be little troll
Bile in securing competent repairers
and retaining them"

Salt Lake, Jan. 4.-AlthouGh the OF

Of Warden Pratt, filed with Governor
Cutler, shows that there are under

fact OF the dangerous and crowded
