in 1901, Which Record Still
Remains Undefeated After
Lapse of 20 Years.

1t is hardly likely that many Bruins
wick people, including the railroad
men themselves, are aware of the fact
that one Of the worlds most famous
railroad locomotives is regularly pull
ing local passenger train out oi
Brunswick.
Yet such is fact, for Atlantic
Coast Line engine No. 210, running
between Brunswick and Albany, is
the proud possessor of the worlds
speed record for a steam locomotive
having In the year 1901, just after II
was placed In service, made record
OF five miles in two and one,half min
utes, travelling at the rate of ona hun
dred and twenty miles an hour, rate
OF speed greater than was ever before
or since, attained by railroad loco
motive anywhere
The engine was originally Plant
system engine No. III, and is now in
almost daily service. pulling trains
Nos 80 and 81, and SO and 81, be

Old 21O does not much resemble the

helped the decline.
Liverpool made a relatively firm
showing at the start, but did not
fully maintain its advances. and after
opening steady at unchanged prices
to a decline of 13 points the market
here was overwhelmed by selling or.
ders from all directions. Inside OF
fifteen minutes the price of January
was forced down to 1890 or a full
cent from last nights closing. while
other months showed losses ranging
from 10 to SO points. with December
rapidly through selling limits, but
after the more urgent liquidation
had been absorbed showed the pres.
ence of considerable buying power, as
there were quick rallies of so or sc
points. Local brokers attributed the
slump chiefly to a weak technical po.
sition after two weeks Of rapidly ad
vancing prices.
Although the market was 10 to IL
points higher than yesterdays close
during the first call today. on the mos,
active months, it soon felt exceeding
