Without going into details and fig

by utilizing some of the exhaust steam

Cutting down the coal consumption

TRICKY TERMS CONFUSE.

The term compulsory arbitration"
which is as tricky as the term "open
shop" is placed in its proper relation
by A. A. Graham, writing in the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen
and Enginemen's Magazine.
Compulsory arbitration like EN-
forced CHOICE restrained liberty or
'black-white,' he says, sis misuse
of terms, contradiction, an irrespon-
sible thing, nonenity, for the reason
that whenever you undertake to make
it compulsory, you no longer have ar
bitration.
"Arbitration is entered upon by
mutual agreement and not otherwise.
Compulsion divests it of every element
of arbitration. While you can have
this condition and call it compulsory
arbitration, yet you have something
altogether outside and beyond arbi-
tration. You then have litigation, the
function of court. One person may
sue another, and compel him to come
into court and defend himself or his
rights, if he have any, or judgment
will be taken against him by default,
on which execution will be issued. This
is precisely compulsory arbitration

portion of the annual coal-production
consumed by locomotives.
"Not only is the locomotive most
wasteful, but it further fails to meet
the requirements of business. The
question troubling railroad men most
of all is that of capacity. They want
to haul longer trains up limiting
grades and at greater speeds, to han
die more business with present equip
ment and labor charges. Some roads
have even gone to the length of put
ting two boilers on locomotive, and
others are experimenting with mechan-
ical stokers.
"The high rate of combustion per
square foot of CRATE now used implies
high draft. This draft is main
tanned in about the most inefficient
way that could be imagined
by using the exhaust from the engine
in a steam-ejector formed by the ex-
haust nozzle and the stack. To OBJ

That the steam locomotive, altho
fairly satisfactory as an engine, is "a
crime against civilization" when re-
garded from the standpoint of a ma
chine for producing steam by coal
combustion, is asserted by George H.
Gibson, New York consulting engi-
neer, in communication to Power
(New York, May 22). Mr.. Gibson
believes that the modern locomotive
has about reached the limitations i'm
posed by allowable wheel-loads and
clearances. In other words, we can
make it no bigger, but if Mr.. Gibson
is right we can increase its hauling
capacity 80 to 40 per cent, without al
tering its weight or its size. He writes,
in substance:
"The trouble with the locomotive is
not in the engine. The boiler and
furnace-end of a locomotive, however,
might well be described as a crime
against civilization, considering our
diminishing coal reserves and the large

WELLS THAT BREATHE.

Blowing or breathing wells are de-
scribed by the United States geological
survey, in a recent Press Bulletin
Washington, May), in letter to
correspondent who inquiries about
well of this sort on his own property.
1t says:
blowing wells, also known as
breathing Sucking weather and
barometer wells, It is stated, have
been reported from many localities.
When such wells have been carefully
observed it has been found that the
blowing and sucking occur alternately
that is, at certain times the blowing
is outward and at intervening periods
it is inward. 1t has been found that
the phenomena are due to differences
in atmospheric or barometric pressure.
The necessary conditions seem to be
porous stratum, such as sandstone,
gravel, or porous limestone, only par
tally saturated with water, overlaid
by some impervious substance such as
shale or clay. While the atmospheric
pressure is high the air enters the
well and collects in the upper part OF
the porous stratum above the water
level. While the barometric pressure
is low the air is expelled with consid-
cradle force, producing what is known
as blowing This blowing frequently
occurs during storm periods or when
the wind is in a certain direction or
during certain periods of the day. The
peculiar action which you have OBJ.
served in the case of your own well
may be due to causes similar to those
above mentioned. If gas is escaping
it ought not to be difficult to detect
its presence"
Denver labor bulletin., 1917-08-04
loss, as 1 remember, ran up to 10

loss, as 1 remember, ran up to 10
per cent.
"The savings mentioned can be
added together; that is, there is a
possibility of increasing the power
capacity of the locomotive by 80 to so
per cent, with an equal saving of fuel.
This is the more notable when it is
considered that the weight of locomo-
tives is now limited by the strength of
the track structure to so much per
wheel, while the size is hampered by
the clearance limitations of bridges,
tunnels, etc.
81 am not blind to the practical
difficulties involved in the foregoing
proposals, particularly in connection
with the draft fan. Smoke boxes and
blast nozzles are even now badly cut
by cinders, altho protected by screens
of heavy and fine mesh. 1t is possible,
however, to eliminate the cinders by
some form of separator.
"What is really needed is some one
in the locomotive business to take the
bull by the horns and build locomo-
used, and about the only people in
position to do so with any hope of re-
turns upon the large expenditure re-
quired for research and development
are Baldwins or the American Locomo-
tive company. Superintendents of mo-
tive power and master mechanics are
too fully occupied with their routine
duties and are too afraid of having
the locomotive stop on the road for
them to take any chances in radical
departures. Other railroad officials
take little interest in mechanical mat
ters or in mechanical people,
