The latroftuctfea on gome road which

with enormous hauling capacity illus
trates the effort being made for f de
cree of affloleaoy that will offset id
creasing cost of transportation, and the
more praising demands of trafflo thai
haa to be handled. Remarkable result
ahowintf what U being accomplished in
thla regard hare been obtained en the
Virginian, where twenty-wheel Mallet
compound engine with two seta of driv
ing wheel have been and are doing the
work of four engine of average tractive
power.
The record ha been made on tha deep
water division between Elmore and
Clark' Gap, for a distance of fourteen
milM against a grade for tho last eleven
and one-half miles of 2.07 per cent, ot
about one foot in forty-nine, with maxi
mum compensated curves of twelve de
grees. Over thla stretch with one Mallet
as the leader and two pushing behind a
train load ot 4,t30 ton haa bean hauled.
The three engines had a combined trac
tive power of 823,000 pounds, an averagt
of more than 110,000 for each. What this
means is shown by comparison with aver
age tractive power for all locomotives ct
tha United States, and which, In five
roars, according to figure of the inter
state commission and other sources ot
Information has increased as follows.
UN. ,8M pounds; 1969, M,GM; 131A, STO;
1311, 27,949; 191J, 28,877.
Pour-cylinder compound locomotives,
the most powerful recorded In con
nectlon with the statistics of tho com.
mission. Increased from 34,345 pounds trac
tive power in 1907, to 89,440 in 1910. In
1IU the comparison was destroyed by the
exclusion 0f Mallet compounds which fox,
that year had an average ot 7B,63J
pounds.
Recently a Mallet on the Bante 7e
drew a train 4,000 feet long, or nearly a
mile, consisting ot 100 loaded cars, weigh
ing 4.S41 tons at twenty miles per hour
on a 4 per oent grade. The Rock Island
has a record of an engine which hauled
ninety-nine loaded freight cars (ninety
eight of which were loaded with can
taloupes) Ul miles In five hours, includ
ing stops and delays, tho train bein? said
to be the longest ever run In Texas. On
the Erie a Mikado type of engine pulled
over the New York division a .loaded train
of eighty-three care, weighing 6,001
pounds, 8,469 being revenue freight. While
locomotives were Increasing 47.7 per cent
In number, from 1902 to 1912, and adding
89.8 per cent to average weight, they were
gaining 109.8 per cent in .total traotlva
power. Total weight without tenders In.
creased 103.2 per cent.
To 'moke possible the economies ob
tained with big locomotives and big' cars
widespread changes have been required
throughout railway plants. Roads have
been completely rebuilt with ninety M
no-pound rails, steel bridges have re
placed wooden structures, better ballast
