Southern Pacific. They will soon go
to France to construct railroads to
be used during the war. Of these,
97 are from Los Angeles and 80 are
from San Francisco. They were en
tertained at San Francisco and were
en route to American Lake, where
they will spen da few weeks in train
ing at the large army training camp
there.
The cars were very liberally decor
ated with aritstic signs, and upon
their appearance in the city created
much Interest and excitement. The
spirit of the regiment was appropri
ately shown by such signs as "We're
the Kaiser's Goat Getters," "Going
to France," "Berlin or Bust," "Bring
on Your Kaiser," "Bound for France"
and other expressions of like nature,
that embellished the sides of the cars
in great; white lettering.
The men were under the command
of Sergeant L. A. Romlen, and had
among their members several who
had won marked distinction In the
railway service. Of these were Major
J. W. Williams, in the service of the
Southern Pacific for over ten years,
who had charge of the work on the

cult engineering feat, and Adjutant
Captain Reslnger, a West Point man,
who resigned from military service
in 1899 In order to become superin
tendent and general manager for the
engineers of the Arizona and New
Mexico railway system.

of the original goal.
