According to the following , clipped from a Burlington , Ia. , daily , the Chicago - cage , Burlington & Quincy is determined to beat all records for fast mails. This piece of news has been kept secret until now. The new locomotives being built for the C. , B. & Q , for the fast mail service - vice will be the largest and speediest on any western road. They will weigh sixty- two and a half tons , will have two drive wheels on a side , and only eight wheels in all. Eighty miles an hour will be an easy gait for them. They will be ready for business early next month. The fast mail now leaves Chicago at 3 a. m. and arrives at Council Bluffs at 2:30 : p , m.

The number of employes on railways in 1894 was 779,698 within Uncle Sam's domain , a decrease as compared with 1893 of 83,884 , or 10 per cent. No wonder - der a manipulator of either the tallow pot , scoop , trainbook , or a number 2 couldn't get a job prior to the first of the month. The number of passengers carried during - ing the past year ending Juue3oth,1894 , per passenger locomotive , were 1,444,400 ; the number of tons carried , per freight locomotive , were 31,909. During the year 1,579 locomotives and 30,386 cars were fitted with air brakes , and 1,197 locomotives and 34,186 cars were fitted with automatic couplers. The Interstate Commerce Commission report for June 3oth , 1894 , gives the equipment of railroads as follows : 'The total number of locomotives was 35i92 , an increase during the year of 794. Of these 9,893 were passenger locomotives , 20,000 were freight locomotives , 5oS6 were switching locomotives , and 513 were unclassified. The total number of cars reported vas 1,278,078 Of these 33,018 were in passenger service , 1,205- 169 were in freight service , and 3S,89i were caboose , derrick , gravel , officers , pay and other cars in the company's service. These figures do not include cars owned by shippers or private % ndi- viduals. The increase in the number off cars during the year was 4,132 as against an increase of58,8J4 during the previous year. This falling off in the ratio of increase - crease is due to the fact that the railways - ways have during the year destroyed a large number of old and worn-out cars.
