julius Kruttschnitt Tells Of Improve
ments Since the Merger.
EQUIPMENT IN EIGHT YEARS
Vice President of Union Pacific De-
tails New Work Done ON Lines.
to Increase Facility OF
Service.
PMENT IN EIGHT E A

NEW YORK, Feb. 1s.-The efforts made
to improve the Union and Southern Pa
clfic systems since the merger of the
two roads we're related by Vice President
Julius Kruttschnitt OF the Union Pacific
and Southern Pacific systems when he re-
sumed the witness stand today, at the hear
ing in the governments suit to dissolve
the merger. =
On the Union Pacific Mr.. Kruitschnitt said
that in the eight years ending in 1909 there
had been provided $50 locomotives, 25S pas
senger cars, H. 94 freight cars, 7N work
cars, 2,42S miles of new steel rails, 50, 266
feet of wooden bridges replaced and SAB
feet of iron and concrete bridges oon-
structed.
On the Southern Pacific in the same eight
years there were $50 new locomotives.
SSS passenger cars, 26, al new freight cars,
2,4S9 work cars, 1870 miles of new steel
rails, 1856, All feet of wooden bridges re-
placed and 1926 feet of iron or concrete
bridges constructed. Another item showed
tina during the period named 17,290,OO feet
Of new cross ties were laid on the Union
Pacific and "a, 1000 on the Southern Pa
cific.
New Methods by Roads.
The witness described the new facilities
and methods adopted by the Union Pacific
and the Southern Pacific since 1902 to meet
the demands of increased freight traffic.
He thought that the freight service was as
good as that provided by any of the other
transcontinental lines. IF 1t weren't we
wouldn't get the business said Mr..
Kruttschntt. He said all the big lines were
working along the same plans to improve
the service n the best service was that
which had the most efficient train loading
and car loading.
Mr.. Kruttschnitt explained since the old
schedule had been superseded the COM
pany had increased it's train load from
time to time greatly and had taken every
possible means to expedite the movement
Of a traffic which had expanded remark
ably in volume.
Mr.. Kruitschnitt said that nothwithstand-
ing criticisms of the mail service to San
Francisco the present schedule, though
longer in hours, brings the mail into San
Francisco early in the day, admitting Of
it's delivery that day, which was not pos
sible under the original schedule.
Some figures were given showing hat the
taxes on the Union Pacific had increased
from 1925 per mile in 1901 to S424 in 1909,
or SO per cent and upon the Southern Pacific
from s2O1 per mile in 1901 to 1898 per mile in
1903 or 80 per cent.

DELIGHTFUL Chatting Dish Spreads

10 do is cut the chicken into small pieces
and let them soak for an hour in olive
oil. Then make a white sauce. just as for
before il is quite done add cup of cream.
This can be served either with toast or
biscuits, like the oysters,
A much simpler dish than these is
"grilled sardines,' which are not really
"grillcd" when cooked in the cha6ng dish
but tnStc Just aS good. All that must bc
done to them is take them out of the can
and put them In the pan of the chahns
dish, with little of their oil. Let them
cook until they are dark brown on both
sides, turning them over every minute or
two.
Mushrooms can be cooked in a plain
cream sauce or they can be sauted. For
either way the first thing is to peel the
mushrooms and break OF the stems. 10
Sautc them put a tablespoonful Of butter
III the pan and let it melt. then put i'll
the mushrooms and cut the stems in
small pieces and put them in too. Cook
them in the butter. stirring occasionally
and adding more butter if necessary until
they are quite brown. Mushrooms are
also very good with crcamed chicken,
turkey or duck. but when 1t is used in
this way do not soak the chicken in olive
oil; just put the chopped meat and the
mushrooms into plain cream sauce.
Cheese toast is n very easy thing to
make with the chafng dish. Cut rathcr
thick slice OF bread and put on top of it
thin slice OF cheese. Fry these in butter
until they arc golden brown and quite
crisp. Only Two or three of these slices
can be cooked at once. so the girls Will
have TO take turns in having them.
A girl could give most delightful little
cbniiug dish luncheon by starting With the
oysters OF chicken. then having n salad.
which, of course, must be prepared bo-
forehand, and with That making cheese
toast. The luncheon should be finished up
with either fudge or nut candy, made in
the chnfng dish, To do all this she must,
of course. either have several cbahns
dishes or maid ready TO wash her one
dish and bring it back for the nezf
cOurSe.
