Resolutions adopted by the shop federation of the Harriman lines. To the federal government, the state government and to the public. Whereas, lt has come to our knowl edge that proper care and attention is not bsingi given to locomotives and to locomotive boilers now in use on the Harriman lines, that the tests required by law are not being made, tha't boll ers are not being properly washed out, that engines are being run on Che road with broken stay bolts, that saw dust rice, paper and other substances are Kafn - irtoiA 4ntn V.(l ' - . leaks in order to get thpse engines over the road, that engine No. 2823 blew up at Imlay on Oct. 7th, injuring one man and partially destroying the round t housie, and that the safety of tjhe employes and the traveling public Is endangered thereby, and Whereas, crippled engines ana now being used tin railroad traffic, as well as other rolling stock without proper ly conditioned safety appliances, and Whereas, unskilled and incompetent employes are being used to repair such rolling stock by the Harriman lines to the great danger of the trav eling public, and : - ' Whereas, laws have been enacted by tjhe federal government covering the construction, operation and In spection of locomotive boilers and v Now, therefore, be it resolved, by the sbp ' federation of the Harriman lines: - - , -. FirstThat the practice of injecting sawdust, paper, rice and other sub stances Into boilers should cease and the offenders punished, for th rea sons that the use of such substances clog the various pipes, low water in dicators, feed water apparatus, gaugra cocks, steam gauges, water and Bteam pipes, water glasses and cocks, etc., which are the most Important factors in the Ba'e operation of locomotives since the water glass and gauge cocks show the height of water In the boiler and the accidents that occur to loco motive boilers are almost entirely due to the fact that the water is permitted to get low thereby allowing the firing surface on the inside of the boiler to become overheated and when this oc curs the pressure In the boiler will force some part of the boiler to giiye way, resultitfg in so-called boiler ex plosions, ' Second That all boilers should be washed out thoroughly once each week and all connections thoroughly cleaned, In order that all accumula tions of scale, mud and foreign sub stances may be removed, Inasmuch as ; the practice of injecting sawdust, pa 1 per, bran, rive, and other substances !lnto the boilers without freqment and thorough washing greatly enhances the risk of accidents and jeopardizes the lives of the engine cnew, and any innocent by-standers who might be in the vicinity of a boiler accident. 3rd That stay bolt testa should be made as frequently and thoroughly as required by law by competent and skilled mechanics for the following reasons: The enormous strain to whlch a high pressure locomotive boil fcr Is subjected necessitates the ut most refinement In the proportion and especially . In the proper staying of the component parts, and to this end the form and arrangement of the brac- les become of the utmost Importance These braces extend from the back head to tjhe boiler shell, and from the front flue sheet to the shall. There C- to those which are in evidence wher ever their necessity Id indicated. Boil ers in tMs country are generally de signed with five as the factor of safe ty. In other words, to withstand flv times the working, pressure to which they will be subjected while In ser vice, and all stay bolts and other strengthening devices are proportion ed in accordance w.itih this factor. It will thus be appreciated that the lia bility to explosion is exceedingly small. It "is, in fact, Impossible for the modern carefully designed boiler to so fall without a pronounced defect in. one of the component parts which careful inspection would have reveal ed, therefore, should a boiler explode, lt shows that the boiler has been abus ed and kept in service in a dangerous condition with regard to the eafbty of employes and the public, Stay bolts which unite the fire box to the, outer shell and which are made of wrought Iron generally one inch in diameter, although size, from 7-8 inch to 1 1-S inch are used to a certain extent. Af ter being screwed into the sheets the ends are allowed to project about 3-16 of an inch. This la riveted over both on the firebox side and the outer shell. ' These " bolts, "owing to the "ex pansion and contraction of the boiler and other strains to whtch they are subjected very frequently bneak, caus ing Bteam to escape Into the cab there by obscuring the vision of the opera tor, and It is of the utmost import ance that broken stay bolts be replac ed promptly, aB the strain which they bore formerly Is transmitted to the adjacent bolts and the area of break age is liable to extend witjh great ra pidity, resulting in a boiler explosion. . Fourth That a federal Inspection should be made of all locomotives, and of all rolling stock In order to insure thie safety of employes and the 'trav eling public, and to compel the use of safety appliances.
