TOMORROW TO
NAME LEADERS

Sentinel Special Service.
Denver, Dec. 30-Caucuses of
beth democrats and republicans will
be held tomorrow instead of today
the date for holding these meetings
having been changed. These eau
cuses are for the purpose of deciding
who the leaders in both the senate
and house shall be, before the con-
vening of the legislature on January
l.
For several days past there have
been secret meetings of leaders Of
both the democrats and the republi-
can held in this city. at which pros
pective candidates for positions in
the general assembly have been dis
cussed. Especially have the friends
of Billie Adams, who wants to be
president pro TEN OF the senate, been
working. The Conejos senator will
have to fight the progressives OF his
party strenuously If he wins. This
fact is conceded; but those who know
the working qualities of Senator
Adams are willing to wager that he
gets pretty nearly whatever he
reaches for, and that this case is no
exception to his general rule.
Onias S. Skinner Of Montrose, cne
Of the original progressive demo-
Gratis of the house, is losing no pres
tige rs the days go by, and his many
friends here declare that he has the
speakership cinehed There is hard
ly a question but that he will be
elected. a feature in connection
with his candidacy may result in
making Adams president pro TEN of
the senate, it is said. as compro-
mise. This is now being discussed
among some of ths democratic party
leaders here.
The first days session OF the ean-
eral assembly probably will not be
long drawn out. Both branches may
meet az cording to law, and then ad-
journ ever TO the next day before
proceeding with the regular business
OF the session.
There is a rumor afloat that this
legislature is going to be short one;
that the general desire of many of
the members fsl that the passage of
appropriation bills and the proper
transaction of financial matters is
about all that should be done at this
session. 1t is not believed that there
Will be many measures introduced,
but that there may be some needed
amendments to laws already on the
statute books acted upon.

the Southern railway showed an in
crease of $511,00O, whereas the state
ment at hand shows a gain. of only
$4,000. Inasmuch as the increases
reported by the railroads for the
month of July was one OF the argu-
ments frequently used to prove that a
revival in business was under way, II
is of interest to compare the earnings
of July with those just published.
When treated as a whole. the twelve
foregoing railroads earned $4,000, 600
more during August than for the
month of July. Missouri Pacific,
Southern railway, and a few other
roads published larger gains for July
than for August, simply because July,
1911, was poor month, making this
years results look unusually larger IN
July of 1911 the whole country was
suffering from business reaction.

FIRE FIGHTING LOCOMOTIVES.
Pennsylvania Plans Department Work
in Switch Yards.

Philadelphia, Sept. 1O.-Steam rail
way locomotives as fire fighters have
proved so efficacious on the Pennsyl-
vania that that company has equipped
612 engines with special apparatus LOT
use in case of fire
1t consists of pumps and hose at
tached to switching engines regularly
used IN switching cars. The crews OF
these engines are Systematically tram
ed as fire fighters to put out promptly
any fires that occur in the hundreds
of cars out of reach of city fire de-
partments.
The yards are divided into districts,
numbered as are fire alarm boxes IN
cities. When a fire is discovered, the
nearest switch tower is Notified and
alarm whistles are blown througho 1T
the yard limits. BY a code OF signals
engineers of locomotives within the
yard can tell from the whistles just
where the fire is.
Each engine is uncoupled from its
draft of cars as soon as the latter can
be placed where they will not obstruct
main tracks. Yard masters ana tram
directors give necessary orders to pro-
vide a clear track to the scene of the
fire Almost before the locomotives
are uncoupled signals are set 1ndlcdl-
ing the routes by which to reach tne
fire. and by the time they arrive their
crews have pumps unlimbered ready
to work and hose ready 20 unreel- IN
the fire organization the assistant YARD
master acts as chief. and gives gen

LOS ANGELES AND SPOKANE.
New Line to Connect Northwest and
southland Soon.

Los Angeles. Cal, Sept. 10.-A new
railroad binding the Great Northwest
and the southland, making possible the
settlement and development of hundreds
OF thousands of acres heretofore far re-
moved from avenues of traffic, is to
link Los Angeles and Spokane. 1t will
reduce the distance between them sew
eral hundreds of miles and bring this
city nearly as close to the Washington
metropolis as is Sa n Francisco. The
surveys have been completed and the
new translate line will be finished
within three years or by the time the
Panama traffic is we'll developed.
Advices received today from towns
which will be on the new line state
that the plans have so far progressed
that the actual work of construction
is under way at two points and before
long the dirt will be flying at several
Others The new railroad is a part Of
the Hartman system and in working
out the right of way several hundred
miles of existing line is to be used: plus
approximately $50 miles or absolutely
new construction flung across rugged
mountains and about $50 miles of mar
row gauge railroad to meet the new re-
quirements.
The distance from Los Angeles TO
Spokane over the shortest existing line
is 1850 miles. BY way of the new road
it will be reduced to about 1177 miles.
It is now 1,075 miles from San Francis
CO to Spokane and this slight differ
cree in favor of San francisco will
more than be offset by the elimination
material reduction of many heavy
grades so th,-t it will be cheaper as
well as more expeditions to ship from
Los Angeles than from San Francisco.

AS shown above, a new high record
was esta blished for the twelve months
ended June 80, 1910, but there was no
time that year when car shortage
was reported On October 26 of that
year the surplus got as low as 1855
cars but within two weeks the surplus
was 1881, and from that time on the
figures increased. Beyond doubt there
will be car shortage this autumn,
but no serious trouble should arise as
a result Trouble of that kind only
occurs after a long period of unusual
prosperity in general trade.

August so, 1911, says the New York
Evening Post. However, as yet, no
one has explained just exactly why
the railroads happened to be facing
such a situation. 1t is purely matter
of arithmetic. During the twelve
months ended June 80, 1910. the rail-
roads hauled 1,S49,9OO,1O1 tons of
any serious congestion.
A year later, that is, on June so,
1911, when the accounts were balanced
it was found that the total freight
tons With crop and general business
outlook at that time anything hut
brilliant the railroads concluded that
it was useless to spend money for ad-
ditional equipment. That conclusion
was warranted. During the height of
the crop moving period last autumn
the empty freight car surplus never
dropped below 20, 600 when order be-
gan to be placed last spring for new
cars and LOGON olives, no one antici-
pated that as much as 10000, 900
bushels of grain would be marketed
at Chicago in one single day, as was
the case this week.
As a result of the serious congestion
of freight experienced in the autumn
of 1906 and the early spring of 1907,
the railroads had the equipment com
panies working night shifts o turn out
additional cars and locomotives. That
was the year the revenue freight
movement esta blished a new high rec
ord at 1,796,336,659 tons. Then came
the panic. What happened to the bus
mess of the railroads as a result is

NOT UP TO JULY EARNINGS.
But August Shows Satisfactory Gain
to Rail Men.

This weeks railway statements, Civ
ing the preliminary earnings for the
month of August show results which
are surprising to some people. All of
the companies whose reports are at
hand show increases for August, but
the point is that the gains are not as
large as those given a month ago for
July
For example, a month ago Missouri
Pacific reported gain of $4,000 in
gross for July, whereas the statement
published this week for August shows
a gain of only $4,000 A month ago
