Ahem !
The design for the new union depot at
St. JosenhMo. , is artistic and graceful.
In other words ' 'it's a peach" .
A committee from Buffalo , Wyoming ,
have waited upon General Manager Hol-
drege to try and induce the Burlington
to build into their city.
TleNortltern Pacific railway in their
last annual report stated that 1,400 miles
of steel rails would have to be replaced
within the next five years.
The Illinois Central railway has a
large force of graders in camp at Onawa ,
Iowa , sixty miles north of Council Bluffs.
It is expected they will build into Omaha.
SaY , which one of you fellows knows
the latest bum song , that starts with
these words : "Sitting at a water tank
a-waiting for a freight ; My God ! I'm
awful hungry , it's ben three days since
I ate" .
From the rumors afloat it wou18 seem
that innumerable railroads are to be
built at once. It is better to await their
advent , however , than to pin your faith
upon vague rumors. 'Respectfully sub-
witted to the citizens of Hastings.
It is said that the Fort 1Vaynd road
will try the experiment of placing its
sleepers and parlor cars next to the engine -
gine and the coaches and baggage cars
in the rear. The object is to get the
greater part of the weight of train next
to the engine , and also to get the first-
class cars where there are less smoke and
sparks.
Statistics for the year 1894 , recently
issued , show a mileage of 179,279 miles
of railroad within the United States ,
the net increase of mileage for the year
being 1,821 miles. Total capital and ii-
debtednessexclusiveof current expenses ,
wasattheend ofthe year$1I,124,930,551 ,
an increase of $64,243,531 ; amounts far
beyond conipreltension.
The C. , B. S Q. is having an engine
built by the Baldwin Locomotive works
to haul the mail trains from Chicago to
Galesburg , 168 miles , of a pattern somewhat -
what unusual for western roads. It will
have a single pair of drivers seven feet
in diameter , a four-wheel leading truck ,
and of " wheels. It's
a pair "trailing expected -
pected to strike a gait that will compel
the crew to tie on their whiskers.
AMERICAN LOcox1oTIVEs IN JAPAN.
In his recent letter from Japan to the
Herald Mr. Cockerill mentions the sale
of 73 locomotives by the Baldwin works
in Japan , and says that American locomotives -
motives have proved their superiority in
Japan over those of other countries ,
1Vhen troops and war material were being -
ing rushed to the sea the American locomotives -
motives took the heavy grades over the
mountains better than the locomotives
of other countries. Where the roadbed
is not enormously expensive the Amen-
can locomotives have always proved
their superiority. In South America
and Australia they have got along
over the comparatively light bridges
and the heavy grades and the
uneven track , where the English locomotives -
motives with their perfectly rigid fames
could not have gone with safety and ef-
ficiency.
An English locomotive builder refused
to take the contract for locomotives for
one of the Australian colonies at a limit
of weight dictated by the strength of
the bridges , which it would cost a great
deal to rebuild , but Americans took the
contract and their locomotives did the
work without overloading the bridges.
In a new country , where a vast amount
of money cannot be expended upon the
roadbed , the pliability of the American
engine is a very strong point. It will
not be long before the Japanese build
their own locomotives , but in the meantime -
time we ought to sell a good many to
them.-New York Journal of Commerce.
STEAM OR ELECTRICITY ?
The competition between steam and
electricity for railway traction is seriously
embarrassing the steam roads , which are
nearly all burdened with over capitalization -
tion and bonded indebtedness , and some
of which have nearly exhausted their
borrowing capacity. One of the most
profitable branches of their business is
the passenger traffic between large cities
not remote from each other , and it is
just at this point that the competition of
the trolley roads bears hardest. The
trolley usually occupies a public highway -
way without cost. Its cars can overcome
heavier grade , 'and the general cost of
construction is far below that of existing
steam roads. Serious as may be the direct -
rect outcome of this rivalry to the interests -
ests of steam reads , its direct results are
hardly of less importance For instance ,
it has been estimated that electric lines
already have displaced no less than 275-
000 horses , and the movement has not
by any means stopped yet. At a moderate -
erate computation this number of horses
would require about 125,000 bushels of
corn or oats a day. A decrease of 125-
000 bushels a day is equal to 45,000,000
bushels a year , enough to appreciably
effect the price of those grains. But
what the cessation of this commercial
demand for coarse grain fodder in the
cities means to the steam railroads is an
enormous loss of tonnage , not , in fact ,
less than 62,5oo carloads-New York ,
