upon its various main and branch lines
Under the sanitation regulations now
in force in Texas all Pullman cars are
now stopped at the International
border points for fumigation. This
makes the Mexico territory practically
isolated from the United States so far
as the operation of the cars are con-
cerned, and it is entirely practicable
for the National Railways of Mexico 10
establish.its own line of sleeping cars
between the international gateways of
FL Paso, Eagle Pass, Laredo and
Brownsville and interior points of this
country.
1t is said that the National Railways
of Mexico will operate a through ser
vice of sleeping cars all the way from
the United States border to the port of
Salina Cruz, the Pacific terminal of the
Tehuantepec National railroad. Every
mile of this service would be over the
tracks of the government railroad sys-
TEN. or, more properly speaking, over
government owned roads, as all of
them ere not yet a part of the merger
system. The Mexican CVera CRUZ rail-
way is owned chiefly by English peo-
pie. 1t recently placed an order in the
United States for the construction of
IA standard sleeping cars, which will be
used to replace the Pullman cars that
are now in use on that line.

OKLAHOMA EXTENSIONS.
construction Work Being Pushed in
All Directions.

Guthrie, Okla, May I.-One of the
important railroad links to be con-
structed this year, according to present
intention, is the Santa Fe cutoff from
Cushlng, . the Eastern Oklahoma, 40
miles eastward to Tulsa and SapuIna
thus giving the Santa Fe system a Ii
rect line into the Indian territory sec
ton OF the state, as well as Connect
ing two different branches of that sys-
tenn. The Santa Fe has a north and
sodth line from Kansas through
Bartlesville and Owasso to Tulsa. and
the main line south through Guthrie
and Purcell, with the Eastern okla
homa lines about midway between. The
Cushing-Tulsa cutoff will give Guthrie
direct line east and west to TuIsa
and Sapulpa, and those cities direct
outlet west to Kiowa, Kan, over the
old Denver, Enid & Gulf route west Of
this city. "a
Another important cutoff. which
Gutnrle citizens are backing at tho
present time, is line from Chandler
to Okmulgee, about 40 miles, that will
give this city another direct out1at
eastward into the coal and gas fields.
The Rock Island owns a line between
Guthrie and Chandler, and this the
Island to extend to Okmulgee. Such an
extension probably would pass through
the towns of Tuskegee and Okfuskee
and the Sac and Fox Indian country.
Ohluu1Seo clIlZenS also are at work on
the project.

MAMMOTH ENGINES IN WEST.

offices in Los Angeles, in order to prop

locomotives recently adopted by the
railroad, and one of which is now as
signed to this division.
Twelve of the thirty engines of this
type provided in the recent appropria-
ton of $31,000,000 for expenditures
for. the year, are to be assigned to SER
vice between San Bernardino and Sum-
NIT, and will consequently necessarily
be housed in the local roundhouse be-
tween trips and for light repairs.
While with only one engine of this
size there is but slight inconvenience
with a dozen of the big moguls with
the present facilities it would be a
task to care for them at the round
house.
When the 1900 is run into the
roundhouse. it is necessary to first de-
tach the engine proper and turn it
separately. and then the tank, each
being handled by the shop engine The
big engine protrudes half its tender

table sufficiently to accommodate the

turn the engine and then the tank.
Many of the employees of the company
in San Bernardino have seen the round
