ELECTRIC TRACTION

The growth of electric traction is
rapid and it seems inevitable that
it will replace steam before many
years. In Prussia the entire sys-
tenn of railways belonging to the
state is to be electrified and govern
mental appropriations have already
been made to that effect. Twelve
and half millions will be given to
the work. France has a number
of short lines electrified, and in
England the London & South Coast
Railway expects to have its entire
line electrified by 1916. In Norway
and Sweden, as well as Switzerland
and Italy, the proposition is simpli-
fed by the abundance of available
water power, and good deal Of
progress has already been made,
especially in Switzerland. In this
country the suburban branches of
the Southern Pacific railroad are
undergoing identification. The
New York, New Haven and Hart
ford railroad is extending it's work,
and the Pennsylvania has it's term
minals in New York under opera
ton with electric power. Two or
three of the largest roads, such as
the Pennsylvania, are discussing
the feasibility of electrifying their
trunk systems at once. In the
Carolinas, the Piedmont Traction
Company has decided to electrify
40 miles, in two sections, one OF
them in North Carolina and the
other in South Carolina. There is
no question but that the adoption
of electric power in the place OF
steam will largely assist in extend
ing branch systems thru the coun-
try, where the water power is
abundantly furnished from the hill
sides. Elk.
