Auto Catches Fire. - An cver-quan-
THY of gasoline which had been spilled
on the floor and connection of the ma
chinery of one of the automobiles own
ed by the Davenport Water company
caused a conflagration Tuesday even
ing that for a time threatened destruc-
ton of the machine. The blaze was,
however. soon extinguished with the
loss to the machine estimated at $50.
The blaze started soon after Thomas
Haley, the driver, had filled the gaso-
line tank at the East Davenport sta
ton and had started the engine. Back
firing ignited the gasoline fumes and
soon the framework was enyeloped in
flames. The oil on the exterior of the
machine furnished fuel for the fire,
and quick work was necessitated to
prevent the fire reaching the gasoline
tank A small hose quickly put an
end to the blaze after the leather cush-
ions and the paint had been somewhat
scorched.

RAILROAD NEWS

According TO an announcement made
today, the Pennsylvania railroad sys-
TEN has in service on its lines, or on
order, nearly 1000 passenger cars of
all steel construction. These cars
have been added to the company's pas
senger equipment since June, 1906,
when it was announced that all future
additions to passenger equipment on
the Pennsylvania system would be of
all steel construction. The Pullman
company is at present constructing a
sufficient number of steel sleeping and
parlor cars to equip the entire Penn
sylvania system. These cars are now
being delivered at the rate of from so
to 60 a month. The steel passenger
cars on the Pennsylvania system have
been called "Dreadnaught" cars by
reason of their construction. They
weigh some 11S,5O0 pounds as agains:
$4,000 pounds in the standard vestibule
wooden coach. The car is noncollapsi-
BILE, its principal feature being a cen
tral box girder "a inches wide by 10
inches deep extending throughout the
entire length of the coach; this girder,
in collisions, prevents telescoping.
The car is fireproof, containing only
about 125 pounds of wood; the latter
is used for window frames and arm
rests in the seats.
