ALL THE NEWS OF
CUT DOWN COAL
IS NOW SLOGAN
Serious Biluminous Conditions
Face Pennsylvania Railroad
Is Told Club Members
< •iiAm.i ''' :h L M I^.IJ'I:
Serious coal conditions face the
Pennsylvania railroad east of Pitts
burgh and Erie. Coal supply for the
present year will cost from *6,000,-
000 to *8,000,000 more than last year.
Officials cannot at this time predict a
future price. In order to cut down
the increased costof fuel, orders have
gone out to all departments, urging
economy in the use of soft coal.
This information was given first
hand last night to tho members of
the Friendship and Co-operative Club
For Railroad Men by Superintendent
N. W. Smith of the Middle Division of
tho Pennsylvania railroad. lie took
the floor to endorse a paper on "Du
ties of a Fireman," read by Charles G.
Miller, assistant road lireman of en
gines. Sujierintendent Smith said in
part:
Economy Is Compulsory
"It is compulsory that everybody
practices economy. No one knows
better than the railroad officials them
selves the conditions facing us on the
soft coal problem. Scarcity of cars
prevents preparing for the future.
Furthermore, there is a demand for
coal everywhere. Railroads will have
to take coal as they get it. The price
is going up. How much we do not
know. The only thing l'or us to do is
to save where it is possible."
Assistant Road Foreman of Engines
Miller in his paper called attention to
mistakes of firemen in not keeping the
heat regular. He called attention to
tiio loss of steam through the safety
valve, and to failure in breaking up
coal into small pieces before tiring up.
"Improper firing is also costly to boil
ers," said Mr. Miller. His paper was
well received and strongly endorsed
by officials and members.
Entertains With Magic
The attendance last night went over
the 100 mark. The big surprise feature
was furnished by George F. Huff, Jr.,
assistant road foreman of engines of
the Philadelphia division, who show
ed he knew a few things about magic
as well as running engines. As a ma
gician Mr Huff was voted a real enter
tainer. For a half hour he entertain
tained the railroaders with slight of
hand tricks and illusions, and other
feats of magic. He Is a clever talker
and had his audience guessing on
card tricks and other features.
President William K. Drake pre
sided over a brief business session. Re
ports were made on the plans for the
annual ball to be held at Winterdale
Hall on tho night of February 28, and
the secretary reported a total mem
bership of 700. New members to the
number of 54 were admitted last
night. A general discussion of topics
lof interest to all railroaders was the
closing feature.

lit SV TIMES AT ALTOONA
Altoona. Fe'i. 23.—1n addition to the
increased hours given tile machine shop
department on Monday, the enormous
demands on motive power, resulting
from the heavy strain on engines dur
ing the hard winter weather and the
need of every engine owned to help
relievo the freight congestion, the
Pennsy has been forced to put almost
the entire force in tno Juniata shops
on engine repairs.
Though there have been a few en
gine repairs made at Juniata shops at
various times, that big department is
primarily for new engine work and sel
dom does anything else, save in emer
gencies like the present, and it is now
about fifteen years sincfe there was a
time when the entire department was
working on repairs.
Although the Juniata shops have

work has been stopped on all but a few
of these and they will have to wait.
However, It is thought that, with this
department assisting the machine
shops, the company catch up with
its engine repairs in a few weeks.
