ADD new SIGNALS
From Chicago to Newton Ulti-
mate Santa Fe Plan.
Installing los Miles Automatic
Block This Year.

According to the progress being
made at the present time, it will be a
matter of only three years until the
Santa Fe will have every foot of Its
double track main line between Chi
cago and Newton. Kan, distance or
642 miles. protected with automatic
block signals
For years the double track has been
equipped with the manual telephone
block system. operated from station 10
station on instructions from the train
dispatchers. This has been giving
way gradually TO the more modern
system of automatic signals until at
the close of this year more than half
of the distance will be so equipped
At the beginning of the present
year the automatic block signals were
confined to 235.5O miles, but there is
under construction. at the present
time, los more miles, which will be
completed and ready for use this fall,
the operating department of the east
ern lines.
Most of 1t in Kansas
The new work this year is divided
as follows: In Illinois, from Nerska
to Willow Springs, ten miles; in Mis-
and from Dumas to Medill, twenty
miles; in Kansas. from Olathe to
LeLoup. from MeIvern to Ridgton, and
from NeCsho Rapids to Emporia, on
the Emporia cutoff, fOrty-two miles;
also from Neva TO Cedar Point. Wal
ton to Newton and from Wagner to
Braddock. thirty-three miles.
By the time this work is completed
there will remain only 301.50 miles
of telephone block remaining between
Chicago and Newton, and this will be
replaced. according to W. X Etter,
acting general manager, as rapidly as
possible.
Not including tho work being done
this year, the total automatic block
mileage on the eastern lines is 252
miles. but of this amount 1850 miles
are off the main line.

U. P. TO BUY 80 new ENGINES
Despite Uncertain Condition. Road.
Are Buying More Equipment.

Despite the strike and intimations
that federal control is again in sight,
the railroads continue to place heavy
orders for equipment. The Baldwin
Locomotive company reports it has re-
ceived during the past few weeks or
ders for locomotives totaling more
than $1O,00O,OOO.
The roads operating thru Topeka
are among those in the buying field
One of the first orders of the year,
and incidentally one of the largest,
was that made by the Union Pacific in
buying $500 new box cars, most of
which are now in the service
Two weeks ago il was announced
that the Union Pacific was in the mar
ket for seventy new locomotives and
now comes the report that the order.
when placed, will call for eighty new
engines. ten of the large Mallet type.
The Santa Fe purchased sixty new
locomotives last year. This year ii is
buying $500 new refrigerator cars.

SOUTHERN MAY ALSO BUILD
Plans Now in Progress for Two Lines
/ Across Cherokee County.

Plans Now in Progress for Two Lines
Across Cherokee County.
With the K. o. & G. preparing to
build a line from Baxter Springs to
Military, a distance of six and one-half
miles, it also appears that the Kan
saS City Southern is planning to OBJ
tain a better connection with the
Oklahoma mining field than is now at
forded thru Joplin
The X o. & C. was this week
commerce commission to built its line,
which will cost slightly more than
S150,000. Opposed to the granting of
the authority was the Frisco which
maintained that the K. o. & G. could
use its lines from Baxter to Joplin, a
connection the latter company hopes
to make by using the M K. & T.
from Military to Joplin
1t has also developed that the Kan
sas City Southern has filed with the
Interstate commerce commission at
Washington formal application for
permission to build a line from Law
ton to Baxter Springs, distance OF
perhaps fifteen miles. If this line is
built the road will parallel that OF
the K. o. & G. for several miles, as
two places. Both lines would run out
of Baxter Springs in northeasterly
direction.
To connect with the rich zinc and
lead mines lying in the southern part
of Cherokee county, around Baxter
Springs, and extending several miles
into ottawa county, Oklahoma, is the
object of the proposed extension OF
the Kansas City Southern.

new LOCOMOTIVE is OUT
For Its Weight, n. Y. c. Claims 1t
Most Powerful Engine I'm World.

Thru the personal direction of
President A. H. Smith of the New
York Central Lines. the Lima Loco
motive works has recently turned out
a new locomotive that is claimed to
embody all the modern appliances
that are needed on an engine to give
1t the highest efficiency.
1t is known as locomotive 5000, and
was built especially for heavy freight
Service on the Michigan Central be-
tween Toledo and Detroit. The en-
CINE is of the Mikado type. and was
built in secret in the above locomo-
tive works only a few knew such an
engine was being built.
In its initial test, this locomotive
handled 100 heavily laden coal cars,
and easily pulled a train of 14O cars
containing more than 5000 tons of
coal. 1t is claimed by the New York
Central that the engine is the most
powerful made, considering its weight
This locomotive differs in appear
ance from any other engine in service
and the three principal features
claimed for it are:
% For its weight, it will deliver
more power than any other locomo-
tive in the world.
CD 1t will exert more tractive ef-
fort per ton of coal consumed than
any locomotive ever built.
CD 1t will prove a locomotive
easier to operate and repair than its
predecessors, thus making for quick
LuEn-dEOUlluS ana safety.
With increase in weight of less than
per cent as compared with the heav-
lest Mikado in service on the Michi-
gan Central. No. 5000 has an increase
OF nearly per cent in tractive power
derived from the forward cylinders,
and an increase of over &c per cent
when its locomotive booster is cut
in. The booster" has the effect of
turning trailer wheels into driving
wheels.
Until the invention of the booster"
the engine trailer wheels have merely
carried the weight of the back end OF
the engine. The booster" is an aux
Hilary engine geared to the trailer axle
and is cut in and cut out either auto
maticalIy or by the engineer. as the
occasion requires. On locomotive
5000 a tractive effort of "A, 500 pounds
is obtainable. OF this figure 1900
pounds are delivered by the booster"
and the remainder from the forward
cylinders.
No. 5000 is equipped with a water
scoop. which eliminates stop and con-
sequent delays for taking water.

The net earnings of the st. Louis &
San Franciceo for 1921 were $3,225,-

1920. according to the annual report
made public in July.
The Union Pacific, which recently
announced that it would construct at
Denver, Colo, a new brick freight
house. has awarded the contract TO a
| Denver firm and work on the new
structure will be started at once. The
cost will be about $4,000.

oil.
The Santa Fe will receive bids until
August II for the construction of a
new boiler and tank shop at Albu-
querque. N. NJ. The building will be
lao feet by 405 feet in size, and will
cost approximately 100000. The
shop is among improvements author
lied by the company early last spring.
The Missouri, Kansas & Texas an
nounceS that the improvements which
it is making at Denison, Tex, at
cost of approximately 100000, will
be completed by April 1. 1928. The
improvements include new shop build
ings, a roundhouse of twenty-five
stalls. power house. yard office and
other buildings.
The Santa Fe now has in course of
construction on the eastern lines and
will complete and have ready for oc-
cupancy by September 1, or shortly
thereafter, nine modern bunk"
houses for its track laborers. The
houses are located at Strong City,
Cherryvale, Ottawa, Kan, Newkirk,
Okla, Lexington Junction, Mo-, Gales
burg, Ill, and three at Fort Madison,
Iowa.
The American Association of Rail-
road Superintendents has indefinitely
postponed the convention scheduled
to be held in Kansas City on August
%, "a and 26, for which full arrange
ments had been made. The industrial
atmosphere is such that it is the
unanimous opinion of the executive
committee that even If the strike is
settled beforehand, ii would be too
late to hold a successful meeting.
Persons who wish to brush up on
the early history of the Santa Fe,
should drop in at Crane & Company's
store at S12 Kansas avenue and call
for a small booklet entitled, The
Early Days of the Santa Fe." written
a number of years ago by William S.
Hinckley. A supply of these booklets
has just been located and Crane &
Co. announce that they will be given
away free to persons who are inter
ested enough to call for them. The
Santa Fe has grown by leaps and
bounds since the booklet was prepared
but it contains lot OF interesting data
