THE HON. ARCHIBALD GORDON.

London. Dec. 16-The Hon Archibald
Gordon. son Of the Earl OF Aberdeen. died
to-day from injuries received in auto
mobile accident three weeks ago. lie was
born in 1854.
Pathetic interest attaches to the death
OF Mr. Gordon. as the announcement was
made only recently that he was engaged
10 marry Violet Asquith. Miss Asquith
was so overcome with grief that her
father. the British Prime Minister. who
had been expected TO attend Cabinet
meeting to-day. decided TO remain with his
daughter at Winchester
New-York tribune., 1909-12-17

IL was not until after the accident that
II became generally known that the young

mier. week ago. when attempts were
made 10 see Miss Asquith regarding the
attack by William Watson IN mis- poem.

she was found at a hospital in Winchester
watching over her hance. She was too
greatly worried over his condition to give
any thought to watson's attack. The doc
tors had announced that the young man
would have to undergo a severe operation,
and feared that even should he recover he
would never De himself again.
Miss Asquith was in London when she
heard of the accident. She mOtOred direct
L. 10 Winchester and remained with the
injured man TIL his death. II had been
planned to announce the engagement in a

GIANT LOCOMOTIVE.

The giant freight engine Of today
is as different from the average loco
motive of ten years ago as could
well be imagined 1t will fairly run
away with load of freight that one
of the old-style locomotives could moi
bulge.
!, In the matter Of weight alone ths
difference Is startling. A fairly DOW.
erful locomotive OF the oldtype weigh
ed about 10000 pounds, exclusive 81
itfia tender. A modern "giarr,
weighs upward of 100000 pounds ex-
elusive OF the tender. The tender Of
an oh-style weighed about Is 900
pounds. The tender Of ssg liant,
weighs 10000 pounds. with an old
type of engine the average haul was
with tentons as the maximum load fer
train of twenty-five or thirty cars,
each carrying far heavier loads. Box
cars are now constructed weighing
nineteen tons and capable of carrying
loads of from forty to fifty tons.
The "g liant" locomotive has work
ed revolution I'm freight hauling. TT
has increased the efficiency Of
American railroads in many ways.
Long freight trains running at a high
rate Of speed keep the road lree.
Short, slow freights block traffic. IT.
costs nearly twice as much to build
and keep In action giant loco
motive as one of the old-tfmeTs. But
considering the amount OF work that
can be got out Of the giants they
are fare more economical In the end.
The big engine does not require more
men to turn it, ncr a larger train
cred than the little engine does. But
The giant calls for the most capa-
bic and experienced employees, who
gets the largest wages.
A railroad that uses the giant,
eneighter must have an up-to-dateI
soadbed. These eng ines tear an old
fashioned road to pieces. Instead Of
