LOCOMOTIVES ARE
BEING REPAIRED
WORK CONTINUED
Big Engines Are Laid OFF 4S Hours
But Work On Line Not Delayed
, On This Account.

The repairs made to the big loco
motives 270 and 272 after the big
fire which consumed the roundhouse
some time ago and damaged the
engines have been largely of tenn
porary nature, and the big engines
have been doing duty ever since
that time at much less than their
full working capacity.
The necessary repair parts which
had been wired for, arrived on the
steamer Yukon, and for the purpose
of installing them, the locomotives
have been taken off the run and
brought into the temporary round
house, where the necessary repairs
will be undertaken.
To enable the steel, ballasting
and surfacing crews to continue the
work on the line, very large
amount of gravel was hauled out
to the D line and banked for their
use until the engines can again go
into commission. There is enough
gravel along the line now to keep
the gangs going for a period of ten
days or more.
! 1t is expected that the locomotives
will be ready to go on the run to-
morrow morning.
The engines when ready for use
after the repair parts have been put
in place will be practically as good
as new and they will be capable of
doing a great deal more work than
heretofore.
During the 48-hour lay-off given
the two big locomotives, the Give.
Spot" has been doing all the work
on the line except the hauling OF
the gravel cars. She is the only
engine now in commission and will
probably take the train out to-
morrow morning.
The work done by the Give Spot
consisted in hauling all of the rail:
and material used by the gangs
working on the new D line and TAX
ing the gangs to and from work
She is also working night and day
shifts.

COMMISSION WILL
SOON ERECT NEW
MACHINE SHOP
Within the Next Few Days the
Building of New Machine
Shop Will Be Started.

To the rear of the new round
house now in course of construc-
ton, with a space of sixty feet in
tervening between them, a new ma
chine shop building will be COM
menced in the course of the next
few days.
The new machine shop will be 100
feet long and So feet wide, which
will make the new building more
than twice as large as the old ma
chine shop now in use.
One of the tracks running into
the roundhouse will be continued on
down and through the new machine
shop building so that the locomotives
can be readily run into the machine
shop and repairs that may become
necessary in the future greatly facili-
tated.
The preparation of the foundation
for the building and the assembling
of the necessary material will be
taken in hand at once.

BOYS IN FRANCE
EAGER FOR NEWS

WASHINGTON, D. C.-The Am

declares Eliot Wadsworth, of the
Red Cross War Council, who has re-
turned to the capital after three
months spent in observing the activi-
ties of the mercy organization in
England, Belgium, France and Italy.
"How did Mayor Thompson make
out in Chicago" and "Who's police
commissioner of New York" are
questions, which Mr.. Wadsworth says
occasionally supplemented the con-
slant queries about baseball.
$50 long as you've come from
America within a month, you're a
welcome object for attack by any
member of Pershing's forces" says
Mr.. Wadsworth. "a crowd of
news-hungry boys in khaki will light
on you and compel you to ransack
your mind for news items concern
ing every part of the country.
"And if it happens that a dough
boy from Terre Haute or Kankakee
discovers in the course of the con-
versation that you know someone
from those towns-well his joy
simply can't be described"
