THE PITTSBUBG DISPATCH, WEDNESDAY, JANTTABT '30. 189a' ' bsta. 3R- J 'THE MOSLEM SOLVED. uEnmmy Engines Would Settle the Country Jtoad Troubles. ilA Y BE USED ON THE CITY STREETS 9I -Iven Electricity and Cables Considered - Too Expensive. CAS EASIIil OVERCOME HEAT! GRADES DUrusM.-in ss to the cheapest motive power is likely some day to settle the vexed question of hotter country roads in Penn svlvania, and it is fortunate that practical and wide-axrate business men are the ones who are doing the thinking, for the average Pennsylvania farmer is not built like his Ohio brother. The latter still fights to keen BP rith far-Western competition, while the former puts his finger into his month and whines. Georce L Whitney has given the subject of motive power on street railways consid erable thought, and has come to the conclu sion that neither cable nor electricity will moe the street car of thefuture, unless the mode of application of the latter be radically improved. In the cable plan there is immense waste of power in hauling the cable, and yet some say the loss is much greater in the use of eleetripity. Figures are not at had, but some say that nine-tenths of electrical power is lost in application, making it very expensive on reads where there are heavy grades. Xovr Ir. "Whitney has come to the conclusion that the dummy encine in extensive use in England as a wagon hanler on country roads will be the motive power on street railways, after an exhaust ive test of electricity, unless, as before stated, methods, be discovered by which it can be used without so great waste as at present. Almost a Cheap ns "Water Tower. These small locomotives are built so as to overcome heavy grades and at the same time draw considerable load, and they are, next to Tiatcr, the cheapest power yet found. Anyone who has seen a traction engine drawing a threshing machine and separator on our dirt roads knows tiiat as a puller it is great, and unlike a horse it eats nothing when not in use and is no harder to groom than a horse, and is- more manageable on the road than the best trained hore. Small locomotives have largely aken the place of horses in Eland on country roads, where they run without having tracks laid for them. X. F. Sanford, of the Pittsburg and Ioon Run Railway, and some other people were discussing the road question the other day, the talk arising out ot the contemplation of a single locomotive hauling 1.000 tons of coal a day. six miles, and making in addi tion three round trips hauling passengers. To do this work with hordes would require 1,000 of them and 123 drivers, and each team would be required to make two trips and travel 24 miles, which at present would be an impossibility. Now this coal is sold at Fay ?1 40 per ton, wholesale it is less than that but to haul it six miles with horses would cost 3 1 least ?C0O more than it sells for; and, speaking of expense, these horses and wag ons would cost, at a low estimate, 5200,000. Mr. Sanford thought if the farmers of this country could be made to see their own inter est, it ould not be long until they would have either macadamized rojds, narrow gauge team or electric railroads on all the main thoroughfares. Attorney Joseph C. Young, in an address'at Forest Grove a few nights since, gave some figures which con tain much iood for reflection. An Idea ofilis Irrljlit Bnsfns. According to hi calculation all the ani mal power in the United States would not to-day sufiice to do the transportation of Pennsylvania alone leaving out of consid eration water transportation altogether. Now consider the work of the 1,C00 locomo tives owned by the Pennsylvania Railway Company alone sonic say l,900.t A locomo tive and half a dozen men will haul from Pitt.burg to Youngstown on the Pittsburg and Lake Erie Railway 1,200 tons of coal in five hours, if not compelled to sidetrack to let passenger trains by. This is equal to the work of 43,200 horses and 10,800 men, allowing the teams to consift of four horses each. Taking the lower number of Penn sylvania Railway locomotives named, their work is equal to'thatof 69,120,000 horsesand 17,280,000 men, three and a half times the entire population of the State, male and female, old and young; and the Pennsyl vania Railway does not do all the trans portation business of Pennsylvania. No reference is had to the Ft. "Wayne, Cleve land and Pittsburg and other railways operated by the Pennsylvania Company. It is objected by some that to fit country reads for use for steam locomotives or electric power would require considerable regrading, but it would not require as much as has already been done since the roads were first located. A specimen of the way our grandfathers did it may be seen by "a walk np Sycamore street to Jit Washing ton. Instead of winding around by the coke ovens, as at present, the first road laid out branched off about one-third way up the hill, and from that point to the summit the grade was almost as great as is that of the ilonongahela Inclined Plane. ome Great Feats of Drlvlne. Some modern drivers have refused to be lieve it possible to have hauled goods up that road, but there are people living who, in their youth, saw the feat performed. The people of Crescent, Moon and a part of Robinson township during nearly a century hauled their produce to this city over the Midtlletown road, when they could not ship by river, and in doing sothey not only went farther but surmounted a" hill 400" feet high, though they could have come on the strip of ground now occupied hv the Pittsburg and Lake Erie Railway and had a level road all the war. Some of the old timers when asked why they did not make a road, along the river, replied that they would not only have been obliged to bridge Montour and Mocn runs, but several gulches also. Now, a'.i the littFc bridges combined, and which served to appall" them, would not have amounted to 300 feet In the olden time ro3l locators were such poor engineers that they even frequently went over sugar loaf shaped hills, never stopping to consider that the distance over the top was as'great, sometimes greater, than around the base. Another abuse which must be considered, if ever there be attempted a radical improve ment m the roads, is the prevailing ten dency of the farmers to have roads run to suit the personal convenience of each. Some of them are miles longer than necessary simnlv to nwnmmndate the various larmers living along the lines. There will be some tall kicking when it comes to reforming lines, but it must be done if there be a radical improvement and for this reason some system should be de vised by which the county should make the main thoroughfares and let the townships take care of the side roads. Taxing Farm? to Make Good Roads. ' "When they learn the value of the main roads the side ones will soon be put into good shape, as in several counties in Ohio, mhere the plan has been tried with the efi'ect of making each back-lying farmer clamor to be assessed SI an acre to "et a road immediately past or through his farm. In many connties farms lying immediately on an improved road are assessed 51 an acre a , year.the farm next to that 50 cents an acre, the next 23 cents, eta, per annum until the work is paid for, and they have all found it to be a highly profitable business and when the roads are once marie, the tax to keep them in repair is insigninemt. People who have given the subject thought, differ in opinion as to whether roads should be macadamired and traction engines used to draw wagon trains or nar-v row gauge tramways laid and locomotives' - used. The latter could be constructed with double tracks for 512,000 a mile. Of course the larmers will not be educated np to the standard necessary to enable them to build them during this century, but they might be induced to assist if ttiey knew the valne that wonld be added to their farms. Ralph Bagalcy states that he has seen traction engines in England haul 100 tons up heavy grades, and do it with case nnd considerable speed. This was on an ordinary macadamized road, and these engines would turn within their own length. Of course, to use effective en gines would require stronger bridges than are found on some highways, bnt this mat ter could easily be remedied. Mr. Hays, of Hnvs Xr. T.rnrr otnfnc that prades 400 feet j to the mile could be overcome successfully by these wagon-road engines, so there wouia be verv little chauge needed in the grade of most roads in this county. This is sup ported br the fact that in the Allegheny Mountains Pennsylvania Railroad locomo tives overcome grades 290 feet to the mile and draw heavy loads, and an ordinary loco motive draws20 empty cars np the Moon Run Railway, which has an average grade of 67 feet to the mile. nulln-Over rrcsent Itoads Don't Pay. Xow it has been demonstrated by farmers possessedof good brains, intelligence.business ability and' ample finances, that farming ten miles from Pittsburg, where transporta tion must be over our wagon roads, docs not pay and the bad roads are the principal cause, as one-third the price of a ton of hay is expended in bringing it to market The lateral railroads that run up the valleys do not help the matter, as to use them hay must be baled as a cost of ?3 a ton, then hauled to the road at cost of another dollar and then two freights nnd terminal charges amounting to $2 more, which charges combined eat up half the value of the product Hay is about the most profitable crop a farmer a few miles from the city can raise, and yet he cannot compete with growers west of the Mhniss ippil Then passenger fares on the lateral railroads are so high as to be an important item. There are points within nine miles of the business center of Pittsburg from which it costs a half dollar to come by rail. All these difficulties could be overcome were tram roads built and engines used, and beside the hundreds of thousands of tons of fertilizer that are annually dumped into the rivers, louling them so that game fish do not thrive, could be profitably distributed and deodor ized on arms that have become too poor to grow weeds and will scarce raise mortgages. Much of the productive wealth of the country is consumed in the mainten ance of horses, and the greater portion of them could be displaced by steam power at a cost for fuel less than half the eost of feed necessary to maintain the animals. A ton of nails can be sent to New Or leans from this city for 55 and by rail at some ?2 more, and that ton hauled by horse power would cost 5560, and, proportioned to distance, the cost for five miles on our wagon roads during an ordinary winter is still greater. DEATHS HEBE AND ELSEWHERE. Sirs. Julia Crelgliton Dllworth. The sudden death of Mrs. Julia Creigh ton DM worth, which occuned at C o'clock yesterday morning at Her home on Hoeveler street, East End, caused a profound feeling of regret among friends in this city and Philadelphia, her former home.
