lcrthward this continuous train might circle
between here and Albany. Through the old
Grand Central twenty yone million passengers
passed to and fro last year. Owing to the per-
fection of this new arrangement five times as
many, more than the whole population Of the
United States can be handled just as easily in
twelve months.
The network Of the two stories Of tracks con-
verges and narrows down to four parallel lines
Of steel at the entrance Of the tunnel under
Park avenue. But the utility Of these four
tracks has been more than doubled. The neck
of the bottle is no greater than before. 1t Is
the stream of trains that earn money that can
be handled through it that has been increased.
Under the old arrangement the empty passen-
ger cars, when they had completed their jour
ncy, had to be hauled out through the tunnel
to Mott Haven, and brought back again when
they were cleaned AS the terminal is
planned they Will simply swing around the
loop when empty and to the yards at
one side below the street level. where they will
be made ready for the next trip During the
morning rush hours it Will be possible to use
three Of the four tracks for incoming trains, ann
in the afternoon when the tide of traffic SWEEPS
nOTthWard, the conditions may be reversed.
Some day perhaps, there may be another sub
surface level beneath the four tracks they
exist that will allow of using the entire
capacity OF the station, Tut Win the lengtHen-
irg OF trains and this will not be neces-
sary some years to come. When the i'm
provcments completed train be han
died over each track every two minutes This
means that every 120 seconds three trains can
pass IN out. All, of course. are handled by
electricity. On the Harlem Division the cleo
trio zone now extends to White Plains. Along
the Hudson River it runs to Yonkers although
the electrification is to be completed as far
north Harmon, thirty three miles from New
York.
Electrical operation is largely responsible for
this remarkable facility in handling trains.
Under steam it would not have been possible
to run them around loops in such restricted
space. IN steam service the maximum curYa-

great that trains will not have to be turned SO
quickly and it will not be necessary to drive
people out CT them or to pile them in with such
haste as is the custom in most great railroad
terminals to-day.
Every known device to facilitate the move
ment of trains will be installed in this great
terminal For years the Centrars experts have
been studying and testing inventions not only
in this country but in Europe. They have
been going about all over this country and
abroad hunting for new ideas. Everything that
has been found practicable has been adopted
and is being put into An all-electric signal
system has been installed. 1t is the only one
of it's kind in the United States. and is the latest
and most perfect that has been devised
One detail of it is that when the gate through
which the passengers enter on the train plat
forms is closed just before the train starts, its
shutting is signalIed electrically not only upon
the platforms but to the towers from which the
movements of the train are controlled. Auto
matically all those concerned are notified that
the train is ready to go out. The signal is
given simultaneously clear up the main line so
that the in the distant towers there will
know that the train is coming. This saves not
only seconds but minutes the old system
which is in practically every other rail-
road i'll the world The essence of it all is that
every train must move time to the second.
When the passengers arrive in one of the old
style steam terminals of to-day they step out
upon platform in lofty train shed where the
air is filled with the changing of bells and the
roar of trains that echo thunderOusly The
transition of the traveller from the Pullman
the day coach that has been his home for
many hours that every detail of it's interior
has become familiar is startling to him. Even
the most experienced travellers do not escape
certain feeling of trepidatiOn at reaching their
journeys end, though they may have
passed through the same big station before
and know the road TO the place where they have
ted to stop.

worst. There are many different vari-
cites in this country.
Prof. Russell clearly related the
the SYMPTOMS and the danger az

In What Promises to Be
the Biggest Project
In Years for Improvement Of
Boston Transportation,
B. & N. and n. r., n. n. and u. Seek
Additional Franchises.

Boston, Nov. 16.-trhe Boston 4
Maine Railroad co. and the New
York, New Haven 4 Hartford Rail-
road Co., today addressed petition
to the Massachusetts Senate and
House of Representatives asking for
legislation that would authorize both
or either of the railroads to acquire
and hold the property, rights and
franchises of the Boston, Revere
Beach & Rynn Railroad Co, upon
such terms as may be approved by the
Massachusetts board Of railroad COM
missioners. The petition also asks for
authority to widen the gauge OF the
Boston, Revere Beach & Lynn Road.
commonly spoken of as the Marrow
Guage" and to extend it on the north
to connect with the existing lines Of
the Boston & Maine. Authority is also
asked to connect by tunnel under the
harbor with the railroad lines now en-
tering the South Terminal station IN
Boston and to equip and operate such
tunnel with electricity.
Those most actively interested In the
proposed construction say that the petl-
ton is the first step in what promises
to be the biggest project for the I'M
provement of local transportation faclll-
ties witnessed for many years. The plan
involves the expenditure of $l5,'0,GO and
has been under consideration for three
years
Under existing laws, the Boston q
Maine road is not allowed to own the
Boston, Revere Beach & Lynn. although
it is said, as a matter of fact. that fully
IS per cent of the shares of the narrow
gauge is owned by interests friendly to
the Boston & Maine. The time required
| to make the necessary construction in
GLIDING tunnel under Boston harbor,
double tracking, electrifying and COM
| pletely undermining the road bed and
transportation facilities, is placed at two
years at the outside.
Timothy Z. Byrnes, vice president of
the New York. New Haven & Hartford
| and the Boston & Maine roads, said to-
| day that the railroad officials expected
| that the operating savings resulting from
| the proposed consolidation will more than
| pay for the interest on the millions it is
! planned to invest. ut will not increase
| our business to points in the summer
| places of New Hampshire and Maine.
| said Mr.. Byrnes, but we expect largely
to increase the whole volume of our bus
| mess in our Northern territory. Under
| the proposed plan it will be possible to
carry through New York passengers
| from New York to Bar Harbor and from
Bar Harbor to New York. by the new
| route. At first We shall extend the Re-
we're Beach & Lynn line ony-to Beverly.
but we have in mind the ultimate extern
J sion and identification to Gloucester.
THE proposed tunnel scheme between
the North and South stations still stands.
| 1t is in no degree vitiated by our pur-
pose to connect the Boston & Maine
tracks in East Boston by tunnel under
| the harbor with the South station, al
| though the present plan will. in all prob
| ability. more quickly afford the needed
| relief"

ANOTHER RACE PROBLEM
Is Invited BY Admission In Numbers

Detroit, Mich, Nov. 16-That we al

hands and should not invite another
by admitting Japanese coolies in any
great number, was the opinion uttered
By Thomas j. OBrien of Grand Rap

at luncheon given in his honor by
the Detroit Board of Commissioners.
Other guests of honor who made
brief addresses at the luncheon were
United States Senator Gore of Okla

of Massachusetts. Ambassador OBrien
said that happily Japan agreed with
us in our attitude toward coole immi-
grafton and he lauded the progress of
Japan and the high character of her
rulers and her people as a whole He
declared that there was in Japan 40
