The Intreiiuity of the mechaulcs on the FaclQc
slope 1b attested by the fact that they have In
dented a machine which doe the work of a
large tiQttber ef men In latin railroad tracks.
Po novel an application of machinery excites
our curiosity as to Its mode ot constifrctlon and
method of working, a curiosity which li fully
pratiticd by a minute description In the San
FraucUco Bulletin, from which we quote:
BOW IT ta MADB.
The re sr of the maohlne is a Inro platform
car on low wheels, flunked to lit the rails On
this is built a high skeleton frarnu to hold the
machinery and support the Iorward Inline.
From tbU frame and rear car projects another
heavy frame, ns long as an ordinary freight car,
and piolectiD? like a no9e. One end of this noao
is attached by hinges to the solid frame, and the
ether rests on a low platform truck, iu form
and shape like a railroad four-wheeled hand
truck. - The outline of the machine, then, is
that of the centre aud one end of a woodcu
truss bridge, the rear truss and floor having
been cut away. In the centre of the main p'at
form is an engine and boiler el twenty to thirty
borse power we forget the exnet tiiiure. This
works the whole apparatus. First It piopcls the
car by making drivers of the main wheels; next
it conveys power at the same speed toau eudlo.is
chain running arouud the concave wheel of the
forward truck. Tho object of these endless
chains is to supply an enrthiFs track over the
loose ties as they are thrown to the ground,
and before they have received tho iron. The
chain rails answer the double purpose of sus
taining the track, and giving it an even tram
way to run over, aud of gripping the lies aud
pressing them somewhat Into the loose soil.
Overhead, on the top of the squaro frame ot
the main car, U u pliitlorm for the pilot, (stand
ing thire he enn nee the stakes ahead, and keep
the machine true to its direction should any
irregularity in the road make it diverge ribt or
left. In making a curve he can give the exact
direction to tho forward truck which will cor
respond with the radius of the curves given him
by the civil engineer of the road. When he
reaches the point where the engineer's Btake
shows a change of gradient he can depressor
raise tLe forward Iruine to suit the chauge if
necessary.
HOW IT IS WORKED.
We win go back some distaucc, and anproach
the machine with the supply cars, and describe
the mode ot handling rails, ties, and chairs. At
the nearest siding to the place where the track
layer is at work, a u umber of freight cars are
stationed, each loaded with twenty-four rails,
120 ties, and a corresponding number ot chairs
in this joriu: 4 iron rollers, 3 feet long, are laid
transversely on each side ol the cars; on each
Bet ol rollers. 12 rails are laid; across these
piles of rail?, 120 sleepers are stacked. Near the
front of each car, 21 chairs on wire rings, arc
thrown on the top of the ties.
The engine detailed to wait on tho construc
tion party detaches three cars and runs them
before it down the level to the track-layer. In
the rear of the track-layer, and attached to it,
are three empty platform cat. When the supply
train touches the construction tram a stoat ropo
attached to a drum at the top of the track-layer
frame is carried alt to the rear of the first load
of rails and ties. The drum is set iu motion and
guided by a touch of a mallet irom the men, tho
whole mass of rails, ties, and chairs rolls from
car to car until it reaches the one next the track
layer. The next and the next loads arc trans
ferred in the same manner to their respective
cars, and the supply train runs bck to the
siding spoken of, shunts the empty cars, takes
up another load and so on. Four men belonging
to the track-layer mount the first platform ; each
seizes a tie and throws it longitudinally into
a low trough at the buck ol the track
layer. In this trough is a stout endless chain,
w hich takes hold of the tie and carries it up the
back and over the wholo machine, and shoots it
out in front. As it leaves the trough a stout fel
low seizes it, twists it round and throws it trans
versely on to a small level platform in front of
him. On each side of that platform stands a
man who walks along the graded road as the
machine travels. As soon as a tie touches tho
platiorm, each one seizes an end and lifts and
drops it on to the ground into the piano marked
for it by the two guiding cords which the sur
veyor's man has placed lor them.
Four men are engaged in throwing ties Into
the trough, and, of course, when the fore part
of the car is cleared they have to travel eoni
distance to carry each tie to the trough. Bat
practically the endless chain Is carrying a con
tinuous line ot ties when the machine is work
ing. One man receives them all when the
chain discharges them in front, and has so re
ceived every tie that has passed through the
machine. From the Vallejo terminus over the
bill, through the tunnel, and across marsh and
prairie, one stout young labjrcr, Charles Zim
merman oy name, nas caugui, niieu, ana
turned every tie that has been laid on the road, !
and he is proud of it. Ills great ambition is to
handle every tie between Valiejo and Sacra
mento. It Is an arduous task. Railroad
men know how many ties it takes to lay
three quarters of a mile of a road, a day's work
often done by the machine, aud these
particular ties vary In weight from seventy
five to one hundred and twenty pounds,
according to seasoning, and some of them reach
140 and 150 pounds. Sharp eyes as well as stout
muscles are needed, for the endless chain de
livers them fast, and a moment's hesitation
might rause a broken thigh: as it is, Zimmer
man's fingers get trapped now and then. We
may say, however, here, that not a single acci
dent to life, limb, or joint has occurred. One
man's foot was hurt so much as to lay him up
for three weeks, and one had hia fingers badly
squeezed; but both recovered and went back to
work. Yet to stand by the machine when
working, and see men mixed up with heavy
material, such asralU and ties, running forwards
literally at railroad ppeed, glvos it the appear
ance of a very dangerous employment to those
concerned.
HAUDLINO THE BAILS.
When the ties are once thrown to tho ground
In front of the track-layer they are done wiih;
the machine grips them. We will, therefore, go
back to the rails and describe the method of
handling them. When the four men on the
freight track next the engine have thrown off
the last tie, the whole concern 6tops. We timed
one of these stoppages, aud we will describe
What took place in two minutes and twenty
seconds tho time which elapsed between the
stoppage ot the machine and the next stage of
tho work, when none of the men knew there
was any particular reason icr hurrying. Two of
the four men pick up irou leverB from tho re;ir
of the track-layer its platiorm is the resting
place for all tools that are temporarily laid out
tf hand and each gots to the rear cud of ona
of the piles of twelve rails on tollers; the other
takes a sledge and guides tho rollers. Tne lever
starts the whole body of Iron at once; the muss
runs slowlv. until bv the JroDPlng of tho for
ward roller over the end of the car, the weight
tips forward and comes upon a roller nxed upon
an arm projecting, from the hide of the track
layer, and, being on a decline, quickens Its
pace. ,Tbe men then get out of the way in
front, but hang on the load irom behind to
retard Its speed. It finally touches a seeml
roller projecting from auo her arm, aud comes
chock against a block of wood built out to
stop it.
This work Is done on both tides of the ma
chine simultaneously, anil, as we said, the work
takes two mlnutee, tweuty seconds. There are
twelve rails then on ench bide of the maculae,
which may be said to be iu stock, and as quickly
as the dropped rollers can be picked up from
between the ialls where tbey have lalk-u, an 1
the load ot rails, ties, chairs, on the second car
can bo transferred to the first by the ropo at
tached to tho dium as already deecrlbed, the
apparatus Is ready to start for another bent of
twelve rails long. On each hid? of the main cxr
are two men, one at each end of the frame; tuy
ride on a banging platform on the side of the
cur. Ihelr duty Is to clip one tail out ot the
twelve resting on the mock roller, and place
It on a conple of small rollers near the tuaebiue.
Inreclly it on luese live pulleys or rollers,
it Is carried forward by hteam poer or its own
weight to the next division of tho machine, the
overhanging no.e, then It comes to a stoppage,
again. Two other men then seine it, and place

clip, attached to short tackling fixed overhead
to the frame.
While they are doing this tbey stand on an
overhanging portion of the platform, and at the
same tins a third man is fixing a chair on the
forward end of the rail. They lower the rail to
Its place against the lat chair. The man sta
tioned at the forward end holds on to fall of
bis pulley, after the one In the rear has let go,
and the latter steps off the platform, flti It by
hand, and holds what Is technically called a
shin-a thin plato of metal live iuches long, one
and one-eighth Inch wide, and three
eighths ol an inch thick, which he planes
between tho butts, of the rails and holds there
until the forward man the one who put tho
cbalr on the rail before It was lowered
has struck it borne with his sledge. Tho
object of the shin is to place some substance
which, while hard enough to steady the rail, will
yet yield before the pressure caused by the
elongation of the metal by bent. One or two
seconds after the ebins are in their places tho
forward main wheel of the track-layer is on
them, and tho woik of the machineon that pair
of rails is over. While the machine is running
Iorward at a regular pace, the next rail is b'ing
hooked up by the clips attacked to the pullies,
nnd the work coes on at a steady pace. The
time (akon to lay a rail, as mavbe well suppooed,
Is les by one-halt than 1t will take the roader
to petune the ubove. One of the advantages or
disadvantages of the machine Is that while tho
engine is working no man engaged in track
laying or discharging tics has time to turn his
head to sneczo with safety.
tub crew.
Decides the men we have named there Is a
pilot v ho f-teerc, nu engine driver, and n flre
mnn in all twenty men. The following is a
recapitulation of the crew:
Pilot, 1; engine driver, 1; fireman, 1; four
men on irelght truck ditcharging ties, 4; two
men on each side handling ialls, 4; two men on
enr-h side at pullies, 4; one man on each si te
placing on chairs and driving rails home, 2;
one man receiving tics in front, 1; one man ou
each eile laying ties on the road, 2. Total. 20.
Twenty is the uumber on tne hip's articles,
the patentee or His partner, Mr. Whiteside,
being generally around, but not engaged in
manual lubor. We should have eald that when
a eto(page is made to run iron forward the tio
layers go back to the construction train tracks
to assist. Tho men who put the chairs ou take
the opportunity to carry iresh supplies forward
from the rear of the track-layer.
ITS AVBRAGB WOBK.
The average work of the machine, when run
ning, since tho first few days, during which tho
men had to be drilled to quarters, haibern irom
two-thirds to three-quarters of a mile. Had the
grading been done, the bridges built, and the
supplies all ready, she would have made the
trip from Vallejo to Sacremento in ten or eleven
weeks.
It is proposed, when next entraged, to build
freight cars on purpose for the work, with
rollers eflixed to them, and by placing guides
lor the hauling rope over the heads of the tio
transportation party, reduce ihe stoppages to the
minimum, just the time necessary to run ihe
complement of iails from the last car to the
machine, two minutes and forty seconds, as we
have said. Under these circumstances Mr.
Whites-ide says he could lay with his present
force one mile a day, but probably the tension
of the men occupying some ol the most arduous
posts would be very severe,
6HKINO AND TAMPING.
Behind the track-layer 1r a party of eplkers,
ten in number, and it is as much as they can dj
to keep pace with the machine. Of course, the
construction traiu has to pa-s over the rails
before a tpike is driveu. As soon as the chairs
can be got at a couple ot spikes are driveu into
each chair, and a couple midway in the rail to
steady the irou and prevent the metal being dis
placed. Behind the spikers came a gang of
twerty-eight Chinese with two or three white
overseers, who were engaged in tamping, that
I, bedding the ties where they are hollow, aud
filling with hne oil around them. The party of
Mongolian railroad makers we eaw wuat have
been new hands at the job we expect, though
their work was well enough done. They had
the full cestume of the ChineFe peasant, big
penthouse hat, and all nndistigured by Ameri
can clothing except occasionally a pair of No.
11 boots just as we see them land from the
tailing ships which transport them hither.

The Pan Francisco liullelin, describing the
operations ot the Central Pacific ltuilroad, says:
"John Chinaman is ubiquitous. You see him
every where ou every mile on almost every
foot of the road from Alta to Reno. His
bizarre figure greets you at every station,
at tho mouth of every tunnel, on the tide
of every causeway and cutting, in the most
perilous places where ihe snow is deepest
nnd the avalanches thickest you see him.
high up on the mountain tops, chop
ping wood, and you see him down iu tho
deep gulleys plying bis shovel or his pick; yon
see him at his tank iu the gray of the early dawn
and the gloom ot the even nig twil ighU There is
not a lazy bono in his body, and he is not too
fastidious to do the shabbiest kind of work, pro
vided he is pail for it. He works hard and
eats but litt'e; does his own cooking, washes
and mends his own clothes. He is hardy,
patient, persibtent, faithful to his employers,
and seldom refuses to do what he is told. He
hoi developed such aptitude for certain kinds of
work, has made himself so esi-eutiul an item la
the great work of building the road over
the mountain, and has been withal so true,
steudlast, and inoffensive, that even the
common day laborers speak well of,
and we believe, generally treat him
kindly. If John is not very largely stocked
with ideas, he has Imitative instinct largely
developed. As a tunnel cutter be was' espe
cially invaluable. During the progress of iho
ereat Summit tunnel there was a strike iu some
ol the Nevada mines, and a uumber ot Cornish
mm came up to work lor the company. But it
was found that the Chinamen could do conside
rably mere work and stand the fatigue and foul
air of underground work nuch better. The
Cornish men tried it awhile, but concluded to
leave the work of born g Ihrouch grau.te
mountains to the more adaptable Celestial, and
went avi ay In disgust.
"Between Bacromento and Reno are fifteen
tunnels, with ao aggregate length of 0262 ieet.
They are all cut through the hardest kinds of
rock, and justly rank among the greatest
achievements ol railroad engineering. We have
already spoken of the great tunnel ut the sum
mit; thoe at Coldstream and Pollard's Hill
are hardly inlerior as monuments of patient
labor und successful skill. At the latter the
work ol blasting was especially extensive. The
heavier 'blasts' threw enormous masses of rock
into the eddy beUw, aud made a resideocj iu
the viciu.ty anything but comfortable. A story
is told and vouched for by Mr. Grant, pro
pi letor of the Donuer Lake House, that one
lock landed near the lake with such violuuce
that its bottom was buried seventeen fejt below
the surface of the eaith. It is stated that the
aggregate cost of constructing this series of
ttanels wa $1,750,000. Following is a list of
the dlfatauce ol each trom Sacramento, and the
