Vice President Melcher of Rock
Island Visits Topeka.
Pressages Double Track From
Topeka to Harrington.
WORK TO THE SOUTH.
Other Vast Improvements From
Harrington to the Gulf. -
"Mudge Spirit Prevails All
Over Rock Island.
WORK TO THE SOUTH

That the visit of F. o. Melcher, sec
ond vice president of the Rock Island,
to Topeka and down the line from To-
peka to Harrington, is a signal for the
initial work on the proposed double
track between these two cities. is the
version given forth in railroad circles
today.
Mr.. MeIcher came in his private. car
to Topeka from Kansas City on train
No. 35 Friday. At this city he took
with him General superintendent Small
ley of the southwestern district, whose
headquarters are in Topeka, and G. w.
Rourke. superintendent of the Kansas
division with headquarters at Herring
ton. When last seen in Topeka the
three men were seated on the rear OBJ
servation of Mr.. Melcher's car In
preparation to an inspection of the line
from Topeka to Harrington.
It was announced in the State Jour
nal some time ago after a visit of NJ.
L. Nudge, president of the road that a
double track would be built from To-
peka to Harrington at once. the work
commencing this spring. At that
time orders had been given to lease all
the extra right of way between the two
cities for the purpose and the legal de-
partment and engineering department
were given orders to proceed.
Since that time the departments have
been making big preparations for the
work and at this date have about COM
pleted their task The results will be
turned over to the officials at once and
the estimates and specifications will
follow at once.
The visit of Mr.. MeIcher, who as vice
president of the Rock Island, heads the
operating department, is considered the
final link in the improvement chain in
this part of the country. 1t is expected
that Mr. Melcher's visit will complete
the final plans for a general improve
ment in Kansas and in the lines to the
south, to Oklahoma, Texas, etc.
There isn't an official on the Rock
Island who denies that the double

INvENTs NEW CYLINDER.
Santa Fe Shop Man Has Scheme That
VIII Make Him Rich.

San Bernardino, Cal, March s.
P T. Klein, formerly shop foreman
at the Santa Fe shops in this city, has
recently obtained a patent on cy-
Under for locomotives and stationary
engines that seems destined to make
him wealthy.
The invention is a radical departure
from the old style, or rather from
anything now in use, and railroad
men who have seen the model claim
that it is destined to be big saver of
power as well as fuel.
In the type now in use the steam is
conveyed from the boiler into a steam
chest, and there let into the cylinder
in a way difficult to explain, but in
the new model there is no steam chest
at all, the steam running direct into
the cylinder through the piston rod
and released it is allowed to escape
into the rear side of the cylinder, and
the expansion remaining in it is
therefore utilized on the reverse
stroke.
Mr.. Klein has just received his pat
emit papers, but already he has receiv-
ed many f1attering offers. One from
a large engine manufacturing plant
offers $4,000 for the patent.

OVER 200, 900 CARS IN Q. S.
OF These Comparatively Few Are of
Foreign Make.

Statistics taken from reports of the
various automobile manufacturers for
the year 1909 tend to show that there
were over 80, 900 motor cars sold dur
ing that year, consisting of the three
classes, gasoline, steam and electric.
1t has been estimated that there are
now over 100000 motor cars in use In
this country. Of this number but few
comparatively are of foreign make.
Statistics for 1909 show that there
was an increase over the cars in use
in 1908 of 48 per cent or $4,000 cars.
An interesting feature of the statistics
and one that should make the motor
car owner and manufacturer take no
tice is the fact that the United States
marketed during 1909 more cars than
were brought out by the other nations
combined. In round numbers it is
estimated that France put out $4,000,
England 10000, Germany 1000 and
Italy 5000. That America took a
prominent part in the motor industry
of the other nations is shown by the
following, which is taken from the
government reports for the nine
months ending September. 1909. The
value of parts and automobiles ship
ped during that period amounted to
$6,099,857, as against $4,346,29S last
year during a corresponding period.
Add to this the business done in the
last three months, which is not re-
ported, and there is easily seen that
the increase is about 100000. Dur
ing the nine months 2,425 motor cars
were shipped to foreign countries.
This was an increase of 1872 over
the previous years nine months AS
an indication that it was the higher
priced cars that went to the foreign
market the statistical value is based
on an average value per car of $2,260.

track between Topeka and Harrington is
probably the first need to be satisfied
on the whole lines of the Rock Island.
The line from St. Louis to Kansas City
will be improved, block signals are
planned to protect every mile between
Chicago and Herington, and prepara-
lions are being made to build up the
line to the south, but the work of the
hour is the facilities between Topeka
and Harrington and the railroad officials
from Mr.. Nudge down realize it and
will remedy it as soon as possible.
Another announcement of interest to
the people of Kansas on the Rock
Island territory is following in the trail
of Mr.. Melcher's visit to this state this
week. That the track between Herring
ton and Caldwell, a distance of about
100 miles is to be ballasted and inn
proved with heavier steel is a con-
f1rmed report.
In preparation for this vast improve
nent the railroad has opened up the
gun1bo pits at Chapman and other sta
tions over the line where gumbo is
line are also ordered to work and in
the course of a few weeks train loads
of ballast of the best in the country
will be FASTENED to Harrington where it
will be spread from that city to Cald-
well.
The Rock Island has realized that it
must improve its service and its road
bed to the south For the past few
the great southwest on the lines which
lead out of Harrington to California.
Ballast, heavy steel, extensions and
new trains have been turned on this
source. Now the Rock Island is hand
ling some of the best trains in the
world to California and they are turn
ing their attention back to their orig
inal rich and fertile territory to the
sunny south and to the Gulf.
The first work will commence this
spring in the reballasting and relayfng
of steel. The next move will be to in
stall another fast heavy through train
to the south. This was planned some
time ago but fell through suddenly or
account of the Frisco divorce and the
disorder that was bound to follow. Now
that the track is to be improved it is
for the new traffic to follow.
Nudge means New Blood to the
Rock Island. Since this energetic
president has assumed control business
has been picking up wonderfully and
the road is accomplishing wonders IN
every line. With a few years more of
the Nudge administration and the
Rock Island will not only boom its own
stock but will boom every territory
that appens to be in its path.
