RAILROAD NOTES.
Third Vice President Charles E.
Pugh, of the Pennsylvania railroad,
H)i that electricity is not going to take
the place of steam on long distance
run until some radical changes are
made in the method of generating and
Utilizing the electric current.
Weed along the railroad track are
now killed by the "electric weed
killer." It consists of a ca- carrying a
dynamo, which sends a heavy current
into a sort of rake of fine wires drag
ging among the weeds on either aide of
the truck. As the wires touch them
the weeds aire "electrocuted" down to
their smallest roots. It is proposed to
introduce the same system In farming.
One of the most important meetings
ever lreid of railroad presidents con
vened In New York yesterday. All the
roads in the Trunk Line and central
Tratlic associations were represented
either by their presidents or some other
high official, who has authority to act
on the several questions which were
brought un at the meeting, nrom nent
among which were east and west
bound rates, which are reported as
again demoralized.
The latest and apparently most com'
plate figures at hand give a table of
street railway statistics for the United
States, as follows: Number of roads.
976: miles of track and motive power
electric. 10,363; horse. 1.814; cable, 632;
miscellaneous, 679 total. 13.538; num
ber of cars (3.29 per mile of track), 44.
745; capital stock (tij.000 per mile of
track), J74S.014.206: funded debt (tiO.SOO
per mile of track), $352.1 25,505; capital
liabilities ($95,600 per mile of track),
11.300,1.711.
The Pennsylvania railroad company
now has an almost solid chain of 100
' pound steel rails on the main line, be-
. tween Broad street station and Paoll,
nd they will gradually be extended
along the Philadelphia division. A few
years ago Bo-pound rails were consld
ered very heavy,, but now they are not
In favo-. The new rails are being put
in gradually and without any Inter
ference with the running of trains, and
in many spots new and heavy ties are
oeing put down at tne same time.
It Is estimated by a railroad official
who has Investigated the subject that
recent contracts and pending orders for
freight equipment amount to at least
i.000 cars. Most of the contracts have
gone to the well-known la-sre comnn
nles. In addition to the order of fno
cars recently trlven bv the rifv. land
lioraln and Wheeling to the Michigan
Peninsular Car company, the same
rnact naa contracted with the wells and
French company for 150 cars, and with
the Pullman company for the tame
numDer.
