Dec. 9. (Spe cial to The Statesman.) The Dai las Machine & Locomotive works in this city this week received a contract from the S. P. & S. Rail way company for the rebuilding of at least 10 large locomotives of what is known as the "Atlan tic" type, weighing approximately 100 tons each. The first locomotives will ar rive in Dallas some time this week and work will begin on them immediately. The plant will ac commodate but two locomotives at a time, and then parts of the machines will extend beyond the building. It is estimated by Carl Gerlinger, president and manager of the local company, thai at least six weeks will be required to make the repairs and changes on the engines. The securing of the contract by the Dallas shop will mean that a much larger force of men will be required to get out the work. and it Is expected that after the work has been started, to put on both day and night shifts. Since the Dallas Locomotive works was started about three years ago, the greater part of its work has been repairs on loco motives belonging to logging com panies, and it was this experience that made it possible for the plant to Fecure and handle this big job. In addition to the work on the locomotives the company will con tinue to build the Geriinger lum ber carrier which has been mak ing such a hit with lumbermen all over the northwest during the past year.
