Biouest Locomotive.

popular Science Monthly
The greatest steam locomotive in
the world has been put into service
by the Baldwin locomotive works. 1t
is so gigantic that it's boiler had to
be made flexible at three different
joints so that the locomotive could
turn around curve. 1t is over 100
feet long and weighs some 400 tons.
Twenty-four driving wheels, each
standing as high as an average size
man, affords 1t traction. The driving
wheels are distributed along the
length of the locomotive in sets of
four pairs, the wheels of each set be-
ing coupled together and driven by
two giant steam cylinders. Under
full steam, the locomotive can exert
an S3-ton pull on the cars behind II
which means that 1t can easily haul
a freight train two miles long and
$4,000 tons in weight over an ordi-
narily good roadbed at an average
rate of about IA miles an hour and
possibly more Bad roads will retard
1t only slightly.

A price below 20 cents for copper
would seem to be altogether out OF
the question. 1t would mean a loss
offs cents a pound on total produc-
ton Of 1900, 100000 pounds, If the gov
eminent price were to prevail. 1t
would mean loss of $130,000,O00 In
revenue to our copper industry. Over
$50, 600, 900 of this amount would ac-
crue to the government through super
taxes and would be lost to save" $685.

be Europe. which is now taking 1,6oO,-

yearly. In other words, to save
cents a pound, we would present $780,

would again drop so cents per day
entailing another loss of $36,000,0OO

1t is to be presumed that the allies
governments may obtain their copper
at the same or nearly the same price
as our own government, but. here a
complication enters in that the allied
governments now conduct the entire
copper traffic In their countries--cop-
per for peaceful purposes as well as
for war. We would be in the position
of giving foreign private customers the
same favorable terms which, through
purely patriotic self-abnegation, the
producers would extend to our own
government. Naturally, we would have
to give the same price to our own pri-
vate customers in this country.
"A way out, however would be to
recognize the fact that. while the al
lies governments might be entitled to
the same price as our own govern
ment on copper purely for war pur-
poses, nevertheless, since these gov
ernments control the traffic in their
copper for peaceful industries, and ii
is impossible to separate the two, 1t
would be fair to add a nominal sur
price on allied copper, say, about l
cent pound above the American
price.

1t will take up a consideration OF
costs of production and allow the pro-
ducers a reasonable profit" While
there has been some talk In unofficial
circles Of giving the producers 10 or
Is per cent profits, others equally
unofficiaD hold that the federal trade
commission will look into the ques-
ton Of what has been the average
profit per pound during the past 10
years, say. or what might be normal
profit on existing production, and give
the producers at least this normal
profit added on to their present costs
Iof production. In other words, this
would eliminate every element of pro-
fiteering through the war.

Must Maintain Production.

I'm this connection we desire en-
phatically to call attention to the
needs of the mineral industry in con-
tributng assistance in the prosecution
of the war. The question has arisen
as to whether the employers of min
miners-also of metallurgists, millmen
and smelters--in this country are fully
alive to the necessity of considering
carefully whether or not any man in
their employ who is drafted can best
serve with the colors or at home in
his vocational capacity For men
whose places cannot be filled without
many years of preparatory work to
ranks or as junior officers and become
widely distributed without adequate
means for recalling them-a misfor-
tune that has been experienced by all
the warning countries of Europe
would certainly be unwise in all cases
where the industry abandoned by such
men is essential to the prosecution of
the war. President Wilson himself
has pointed out that it is quite as
necessary for the men best qualified to
produce to remain at home as it is
for the men best qualified to fight to
go to the front
Up to Employers.
This question is one that is dis
tinctly up to the employers. They must
assume that many young men who
ought to be retained at industry will
allow themselves to be drafted rather
than to claim exemption, Their en-
ployers must claim exemption for them
and must be alive and right ION the
job in doing it. 1t may be well for

Nealiaence and Liability.

In reversing Judgment against own
ers of a mine in the joplin district
awarded by the trial court in favor of
shoveler who was injured at the
bottom of stope through fall of
rock and dirt from the roof, the
Springfield, Mo-. court of appeals holds
that If the employers did all that a
reasonably prudent man could be ex-
pected to do in the circumstances, by
preparing a level place at the top of
the stope to catch any fall of over
hanging dirt or rock, liability for the
accident could not be ~predicated on
failure to timber the roof. (Neely VS..
