tentacles and absorbing suburban patronage
In a manner not at all to the liking of the
steani railroad managers. The octopus must
be beaten oven in Its own manner , by being
fought \vItI ; its Own weapons , Therefore ,
oloetrie traction must be provIded for , on a
scab which would take heed of future conditions -
tions , Fvery one of these rallier formidable -
, : ble problems has been coped with success-
uliy in the new structure.
: Placing the trains on two floors , at once
. accomplished the purpose of separating the
local from the through trafile. The arrangement -
mont of the tracks for thi , express trains ,
which run in on the second floor , differs
, .
- little trout that of au ordinary station. In
thd b. . : .iiiit. towovcr , the arrangement is
) unique , Tliore arc but two tracks , eon in
I and one out , forming a large and nearly
& I circular 1001) . Ily means of a switch , a see-
end auxiliary loop Is formed inside of the
'first , Thus there is a continuous passage
of trains through the station , which gains
for it all of the facilities of a way station ,
'while it is at the seine time a terminal.
The time ordinarily lost iii backing out of
; ntatlons to make room for other trains , in
changing the locomotive from one end to
3 the other , in turiiiig over the bacha of seats
and other minor necessities of the same
, nature , will now be saved , The double loop
.wtlI lipId fourteen thrce.rar trains. It would
, ho possible for one suburban train to do-
yards the same company is using sceral
electric enIns , and is said to contemplate
equipping the entire road with third rail
conductors , At least , this Mallen will hO
quite reads whehov r the toad Is so
equipped.
The W57 out of the basement for the
trains is through a two-track trench , or
cut , lying on the left hlo of the main tracks ,
The basement itself is not entirely below
the sidewalk. In fact , it Is depressed 50
that the same umhOr ot step lead down
to the suburban trains as lead up to the cx'
press trains on the floor above. So , after
leaving the station , the grade of the ex
press trac.ks leads gradually down to the
level just na the grade ot the local trains
leads gradually up from below , The local
trains In many cases Use the express tracks
after getting mica outsLle- and tItle , as may 1
be supposed , leads to a iorid of complicated
switch-twisting and signaling. vcn here
the system had to be arranged quite differently -
ently from that. of an ordinary road. The
signals for incoming and outgoing trains
viii be located on eight or nine signal
bridges. There will ho tWo towers ( iota
which the interlocking switches will be
operated. 'FILe ewit1us' and signals will be
orked by compressed air , which , In its
turn , 'wIll be opcrnYcd eletHcatly from the
towers. Ihut. It. uiti be almost impossible
for a human being to , atmplify in his mind
such a maze of swItches , signala , wtres and
tracks , The human machine Is perfect to a
certain extent , but , unfortunately for the
railroad business , it is not mechanical
enough to remain uninfluenced by wind and
weather , lack of sleep , indigestion and other
disabilIties of a iikonaturo. In order to
prevent any dlsastroua complication ensuing
froni such a cause , tue. ompany is ldncing
in every tower a ACts of miniature tracks
which is connected electrically with the real
tracks out in the yard , atid which operates
In conjunction with thOrn. This inininturo
sot of tracks is belngpluced tight in front of
the side of the main tracks that Its per-
apectivo lines rbaliy scent to reach the
vanishing point ; a huge carriage concourse
which allows the vehicles of passengers to
come right into the building-quito a wet
'weather fepture ,
As ope walks thirodgh the depot its work-
log details are thrust soraplilly upon one's
understanding that the result is almost mit-
fusion. One notices that there Is an Ice-
making plant for ' supplying tue coolers In
the cars , a llltering.plant for supllying cool ,
clear water all over the station ; a ictrigerat-
lag llant for keeping fresh the provisions In
the kitchens of the several large restaurants ;
it steani l.ant for warming the passenger
cars while they are'standing unattached tea
a locoinottyc In tIle' station in cold weather ;
a coniliresSod air plant for testing the Westinghouse -
inghouso brakes bforo the trains leave the
sIted ; an electric lighting and vower plant
for illuminating the buildIng 'via Its
magnifIcent electroliers and for operating the
very numerous passeng r and freight
elevators , One sees that. all the needs of a

' ; nt structure , 'there bath .to lo demolished
210 buildings , sheltering during btiiness
hours of the dty nearly 4,000 persons , enough
' to founil a small town.
More than half the railroads which run
ItQo and out of I3ostonwill use this depot.
It will divide the patronage othe city with
' . the northern depot , WhIch Is situated on the
- diametrically oppoIt si4o of the town.
Necessity compelled Its construction. Once
there wore no less than eight railroad depots
I in Boston. The confusion this enthlied was
i enormous and the Impossibility of nakIng
1 % connections finally forced the combination
of 'several of the roads. At the present
time , outside of the northern , there are
three large depots , each of which Is used
by halt a dozen conchs. All these roads wIli
hereafter use the new station , so that there
wlii be but two floston depots-time northern
, terminal and the southern terminal. Thu
question of travel for Bostonians is tittis
t , reduced to the primitive iroposition of
F knowing at what point of the compass their
t destinations may lie. After that the ques-
r tion of selecting the proper depot is easy.
l'l'olIeiiiN ( If ConstructIon ,
The housing of all those roads In one ata-
tion involved problems which do not enter
into the construction of single stations. TIm
rIghts and privileges of any one road must
t not be interfered with by the others , Thu
right of way for one train after another
: must be , so to speak , continuous. The long-
distance tralflc must not suffer from a con-
, part front the station every mnnuto and yet
allow each train to stay five minutes on the
hoop to unload auth load , During the working
time of the do ) ' , or ( mom .i a , in , untIl raid-
' night. this would mean the dispatch of IOSO
trains , Adding the enpacity of the express
floor , thma general capacity of tIme station

As a mere architectural achievement the
Boston terminnlsCntio impresses one most
vtvtdly by its Immensity. its bigness is
like that of thieznain building of some great
exposition. It Is a small world under ten
acres of roof. Its train shed Is seven times
bigger than St. Paucrac station , and twice as
big as the London & Northern ; so big , In

built up in the middle of it and yet leave I
respectable breathing roqm on all shies.

has shown how .tventy-four of the prominent
buildings of I3'stOn could be placed bn the

scribed as a hIodth.
The "bottled " tmsetl
phrase up , so widely
since the hemming in of Cervora , explains
time harb&r of Santiagq do Cuba In a word.
Time harbor is a bottle with the entrance at
the neck. It that neck was cit a edekacrow
almnlo and the body of the bottle widened a
bit irregularly the rcacmnblammco would be
very close indeed , It is an admirably safe
lmnrbor with thin narrow passage thirotigit
fringing reefs , but 180 yards wide in its
narrowest part. The..hmnnucl is tortuotia
tamul dimcult for a milq. t om the mouth and
it wired 'well should o , very formidable.
The town lies fully tlc and a half nihies
from time immoutli.
Morro castle , the principal fort guarding
the entrance , Is on time eastern side , imercheul
well up on the boit hills , which line tIm
cimannel's mnbuthm. It is formidable from its
position and its guiia cuid deliver a terrIbly
effective plungIng fire , ' the most tlesilly fire
known , on any ships going by. That is , of
' course , unless they were silenced first ,
Once immairlo and the'difilcu1ties ' of the
channel negotiated stmicesafully tIm rest of
tim work for an dttaeklng squiulmon woumhl
; lint be so difilcuit. Ships cotmld maneuver ,
I although 'not with the same facility as
Dewey's ships did in Manila bay , nod the
'gtins of time town could not add iiitmch to time
terrois of the defense. The harbor , like ( tic
channel , is wired. . but the value of Spanish
wires has so far-1in problematical. Most
