CHICAGO BELT LINE
TIED UP BY STRIKE
Employees Want Special Train
to Take Them to Work.

CHICAGO - All the engineers,
foremen and trainmen employed by
the Belt Railway company of Chicago
went on a strike, which, it is feared
may spread to other railroads.
Tuesday not wheel was turning on
the belt line, and not a car was de-
livered by it from the big yards at
Clearing, where thousands are now
blocked, so that the issue of the spread
of the strike was not put up to the
unions. If, in the future, a real effort
to break the strike is made, serious
complications are considered likely.
The strike is caused by no question
of wages or shorter hours. The men
demand that service train be pro-
vided to take them to and from their
work at Clearing. The company insists
that the men get to work as best they
can or as other people do who work
far from home, or move out near the
big terminal yards.

ELECTR|FICATION ISL
SURE ON c., M. & SIP.
Official Test Proves 1t Far Su-
periOr to Steam.

MILWAUKEE,, WIS.-'The absolute
superiority of electricity over steam in
locomotive power was demonstrated
at the official test made on the 40
miles of the Rocky Mountain division
of the Chicago, Milwaukee and ST.
Paul railway and unquestionably fore
shadows its general use for both pas
senger and freight transportation in a
comparatively short time" said L. j.
Petit, director of the road.
"The test was made in the nature of
a race between two trains starting
from Butte, Mont, one consisting OF
fifty cars loaded with lumber, coal,
ore and other merchandise aggregat-
ing 300 tons, drawn by two electric
locomotives, one of which was recent
ly on exhibition in Milwaukee on it's
way to the coast.
1.-THE second was made up of thirty
five cars, loaded with a total weight
of 1900 tons, pulled by three giant
steam locomotives heretofore employ
ed in hauling trains over the mountain
grade of approximately 2 per cent.
"To De brief, the electric train
moved up the mountain pass as quiet
~ as an Ordinary street car, without a
culver of eXertion at uniform speed
of eighteen miles per hour, while the
three steam monsters could be heard
for miles in the rear, putting and fill
ing the heavens with smoke and
steam, actually grooming under the
strain of making the incline at an er-
ratio pace of ten miles per hour"
