BIG ORDER FOR ENGINES.
Santa Fe Orders Forty Tsililelti Freight
Engines From Hcheneelaily Works.
HCIIKXKCTADY, X. Y., July
Xhe American Locomotive company has
recttived from the Atchison, Topcka and
Santa Fe Kailrond company an order for
40 tandem compound consolidated freight
engines. These engines are the type for
merly liutlt exclusively hy the Schenecta
dy l.iH'omotive works, and this order will
he built at any of the works of the new
company. The first locomotive of this
type was built over a year ago for the
Northern 1'acilic freight service, and it
proved so valuable for the mountain
trullic that I'll more were ordered, and
now comes the order from the Santa Fc
road for -III.
The chief advantage of the tandem
over the old cross compound locomotive
fs a gain of from -I.INMI to .".INKI pounds
in tractive power, as well ns a more sym
metrical appearance and greater com
pactness. In the cross compound engines
tlbc size of the cylinders is limited, and
tile whole work is divided between two
cylinders, whereas hi the new type it Is
distributed among four cylinders and a
great increase of power is obtained. An
other improvement is the Schenectady
type of wide tirebox, which has been so
successfully used on engines on the New
York Cetitrnl and other ro.uls These en
gines weight L1XI.IKKI pounds or ti.noi)

WEEKLY TRADE REVIEW.

XEW YORK. July SO.-Bradstreet'a
review of trade says.
Ilent, drought and strikes have fur
nished their ouota of disturbing Influ
ences this week, but despite these a fair
volume of business goes forward and
nearly nil markets have taken the de
Tclopmeuts of the week (all of which, by
the way, have not been unfavorable!,
calmly and even cheerfully.
While only scattered ruins are reported
In the worst afflicted sections of the com
belt, and much mon rain Is needed if
damage is to he repaired, the rest of the
loiintry reports a fair amount of mois
ture, and the South Atlantic, the Cen
tral Western and the Xorthwestern
state n-tiirn more favorable advices
than n week ago, both as re - '9 the
crop outlook and the bt'sh ('ling.
The great steel strike. los v l eliiwed
hy the tieup uf hard o id 1 in- by a
few mine firemen, has ,-esiilrc! i i t'..o
greatest suspension of labor r o-irr -'l for
some years past, but it is to Is botn.' in
mind that this season is the natural one
for vacations, and nothing like the max
imum number of men reported on atrike
is thought to be out.
Iron and steel us a whole are unset
tled by the strike, which is. however,
routined to one locality, the central west,
and again directly affects only the tin
plate, the sheet mid the hoop mills within
that territory. The outlook is, with a
continuance of the strike, for some weak
ness In the cruder forma of iron which
will, of course, tend to accumulate and,
on the other hand, induce some advance
in the finished products affected directly
by the strike.
l-'or the third year in succession export
trade has shown a progressive gain, and
the total for the past fiscal year ia the
greatest ever known, being 6.(1 per cent
larger than in the preceding year aud M
per cent heavier than the low water
mark of the past delude set in 1SIU-II.1.
A better tone for wool is noted at near
ly all markets, and prices of finer grades,
fine territory and Austrnlinn wools nre
ateadily hardening. Textile manufac
turing is on a better footh.g than it wat
a month ago. Cotton goods are firmer,
and many of the mills have hooked so
large 11 proportion of their output that
they will take additional orders only
"at value."
Boot aud shoe shipments from Eastern
markets are smaller than lust week, but

PLANS FOR NEW CRUISERS
They Will He Able to tin Faster and Furth
er Than Any In the World.
WASHINtiTOX. July l!l. The plans
now under consideration for the two new
armored cruisers authorized by congress
contemplate such a new departure in
steaming itipncity that these ships will
he able lo make voyages far exceeding
any by the ships now in commission and
equalling, if not exceeding, the long dis
tance trip of any naval warships atloat.
They provide for a combination of
three screws, so separated that anyone
tun work independently. By using all
three screws, the ship could develop great
speed froui 22 to 23 knots, so that aha
would be listed as a 23-kuot ship. By
si emitting the screws, using but one at
11 little, the big era It could make a voy
age of at least Iii.ikki miles without a
stop to roe. ml ami at the same time ihe
would always have her three screws in
readiness to develop a 22 or23-knut speed
iu case of necessity.
