BURLINGTON WILL INSTALL
OIL BURNING LOCOMOTIVES.

The Black Hills branch of the Bur.
lington Railway will shortly be equip.
ped with oil burning engines, according
to the statement made Monday to the
Times by high official of the road
This marks the first step towards the
installation of oil burning engines over
the lines West of the River and the pre-
diction is made that it will not be many
years until the Burlington follows the
Northwestern and installs oil burners
on all trains west of the Missouri river.
The use of oil as fuel is the first result
of the building of the Central Wyoming
lines. H
The mechanical department of the
Alliance division has been figuring on
the installation of oil burners for some
time and has been in receipt of figures
and estimates from the North western
railway. The burners will be first in
stalled in the engines on the Deadwood
line, which include five Mallett type
locomotives, three passenger engi nes and
two other, making ten in all. The
change for oil is quite costly necessitat.
ing a change of CRATES, new storage
tanks on the locomotives, a re-arrange-
ment of the brick arches, etc, and the
building of oil storage tanks at such
points as Edgemont, Deadwood, Hill
City and others. The oil will be hauled
over the Burlington lines to Grin Junct.,
over the North westsrn to Crawford and
the rest of the way over the Burlington.
The oil burners will not be used on
the narrow guage lines in South Dakota
The experiments of the mechanical
department show, after the first cost o.
installation, that the operating cost o.
oil burners is very much less than o.
coal burners.
The possibility of oil burners on the
main lines is increased by the oil pros
pecting now going on in the vicinity o.
Ardmore and Rumford, S. Dakota. A
company has been formed, with Mr.
Oliver, of Crawford at its head, to
develop oil in that locality and tes
well will be sunk in a short time. In
dications. of oil haye been noted on the
surface for some Alliance Times

BIG CULEBRA CUT
 FINISHED MONDAY
Great Ditch Nine Miles Through Mountain Being Cleared for Turning in Waters of At
 lantic and Pacific.

Panama, Sept. 15.-All steam shovel operations in Culebra cut proper end today, and between Oc- tober 5, when the water will be ad- mitted, all iron and other metal, including 36 miles of track, must be out of the nine-mile channel be- tween Gamboa Dike and the Pedro Miguel locks.
 On August 1 there still remained to be removed 99S900 cubic yards inside the theoretical canal prism, and the steam shovel operations be- tween that date and September 15, it is estimated, will reduce the amount to 650,000 yards, which will later be removed by the dredges.
 Water will be admitted to the Culebra cut under this arrangement on October 5, five days in advance of the date set for the destruction of the Gamboa dike. The blast on October 10 is expected to cause a small opening in the barrier, which will gradually increase in size un- til a considerable stream flows into the cut and completes the work of filling it up.
