Ceaatry.
riann have been carried out which will
Increase the trackage system of the Van
derbllt roads from Omaha Into New Tork
city. Five million dollars are to be ex
pended on the venture. The Northwestern
already f ft double track road from Omaha
to Cl.lcaso and the New Vork Central la
four track from New Tork to Buffalo.
The connecting link la the Lake Shore &
Michigan Southern and work already Is
under way for two more tracka between
Chicago and Buffalo, thus completing the
chain. ...
A law quantity of steel rails Is being
distributed, along, the Lake Shore between
Buffalo and Cleveland and several tons
more of the rails will be needed before the
tracks are completed. With the Improve
ment now -under way. It also will become
necessary to enlarge the railroad yards of
the Vanderbilt system, and It Is understood
Omaha Is to receive a share of attention.
. Five million dollars already have been ex
pended an the ,Lke Shore In the last two
year In the way of Improvements between
Chicago and Buffalo to wipe out curves and
grades, and much attentnon Is now beUig
given to the enlargement of the facilities
for the handling of raln. About ,B0,000
worth"of hew' equipment also" has been
' bought, and a redistribution of heavy mo.
tiva power Is being made on the different
divisions. Some of the bridges have been
found too light to sustain the heavy trains
that are passing over them, and this baa
furnished another item of expense.
One DtfBealty to Be Met,
While the Increasing business of the sys.
tern has made necessary the Improve
ments now under way, the short subsidiary
lines or feeders have, in recent years, in
creased In number more rapidly than have
the transportation facilities of the main
line. This is one of the difficulties that is
no- being remedied. An Omaha' represen
tative of one of the Vanderbllt lines said:
"There Is" another feature of railroad
ing which has made the improvement ne
cessary and one which the general public
would overlook.' This Is the constantly in
ert wing shortage of car service. Tracks
are congested, and car are apparently
continually diminishing in number, in spite
of the fact that every year an enormous
sum is put into new freight cars. For a
Jong time is was a source of marvel as to
what became of the cars. They . disap
peared about as fast as the shortage was
replenished.
"Investigation has shown the cars are
tied up 'as the result of congested lines.
Cars cannot be moved forward to their
destination 'and the result is they are used
; as warehouses. 'Every year this trouble
is getting worse and the hope Is indulged
that by increasing . the carrying facilities
of the system this trouble will be overcome,
in a large measure at least, for we cannot
expect to wipe it out entirely.
"The Improvement in the passenger de
partment alone will be tremendous, for it
gives the Vanderbllt system a double track
from Omaha to the Atlantic seaboard."
Obstacle to Gasollae Motor.
While the Union Pacific has temporarily
discontinued the experiments with Its gas
oline motor engine, the idea Jiaa not been
entirely abandoned.
It was with cheap motive power as the
end In view that the Union Pacific began a
aeries of experiments and constructed a
model, but the company is not yet satisfied
with the machine. In general appearance
the motor resembles a combination of auto
mobile and locomotive. The machine has
been stored away for the present, but it Is
the intention to resume the experiments.
It Is understood that Mr. McKeen, superin
tendent of motive power and machinery,
has several new ideas which he expects
to carry out in the construction of the ma
chine, and which' It Is believed will bring
about satisfactory' results in the operation
of such a motor. He declines, however, to
discuss the subject. Railroad men are con
fident a successful gasoline motor can be
built. One of the Union Pacific machinists
said:
"Nothing has been done with the motor
of lata. Naturally there is considerable
speculation as to whether it will be a suc
cess, but I don't see why It can't be made
to work. The superintendent has hopes of
doing something with It, and some of the
experts down at the', shops think it can be
made to work. Such a motor may work
for light passenger hauls, but In my opin
ion it never will be a success for anything
but very light trains.
"Even our heaviest locomotives are
racked all to pieces by the big hauls they
have and they have to undergo frequent
repairs. J have every confidence in the
successful operation of a gasoline motor
for light passenger hauls, but the great
difficulty Is that neither gasoline nor
electricity Is reliable enough to be used in
a country of long hauls like the west. For
this reason It Is doubtful that they will
supersede steam for 'years to come. You

can get a train through with steam when
running under difficulties whers any other
power with the same obstacles to over
come would fall. This is one of the objec
tions in the way of a gasoline motor. We
have not given up the idea entirely, but
nothing has been done with the motor ot
late although, I believe, experiments are to
be continued In the hope of solving the
problem of a cheap and reliable motor
machine powerful enough to do the work
on branches where steam is found unprofitable."
Nearly all the Burlington representatives
of the passenger department who attended
the meeting at St. Louis have returned.
L. W. Wakeley, general passenger agent
for Omaha, returned this morning. He
said the business program of the officials
was interfered with owing to the unex
pected death of H. B. Segur, general agent
for the "company at Atchison. He. expired
suddenly Tuesday morning while standing
on the plaform of the station at St. Louis.
The meeting of the passenger men was
adjourned when the news of the demise be
came known., About' fifty passenger rep
resentatives of the system were repre
sented. Mr. Wakeley said:
"The fair la magnificent, and people who
decide not to go will make a mistake. The
weather Is delightful and the crowds are
getting larger. St. Louis has been afraid
the attendance would not be large enough to
make the exposition a financial success, but
the receipts are becoming more encouraging
I know of no attraction that stands out
rrjore than another. Everything has been
carried out on a large and magnificent
scale. At . night the grounds blase with
light and the buildings at a distance are
outlined by gleaming, lines of fire. The
effect against the dark back ground is
beautiful. The time to see the fair is now,
as the display is now complete. M
. Removal of Offices.
New offices have been secured by the
Erie Dispatch on the fourth floor of the
Karbach building. B. J. Drummond, the
local agent for the company, says he is
highly pleased with the new quarters, as
it brlnss hta office closer to the retail
center of the city, from where a large
share of the business of the company is de
rived. The Missouri Pacific expects to move Into
new quarters on the first of the month.
The building at the corner of Fifteenth and
Farnam streets, formerly occupied by
Kelley, Stiger Co., is now being fixed
over for the company, which will occupy
the west half of the building. The east half
will be .occupied by the Megeath Stationery
company.
