Increased efficiency in the freight
and passenger service to be afforded
by the O. R. & N. hereafter is assur
ed in the announcement from Port
land that requisitions for approxi
mately $1,775,000 for the Southern
Pacific lines in Oregon and for the
O. R. & N. system have been approv
ed and orders will be placed soon
through the New York offices. This
means there Is not to be another car
shortage this fall when the bumper
wheat crop is ready for transporta
tion to tidewater ports. It means that
freight trains wll be handled In
greater numbers and at greater speed
than ever before and that passenger
trains will not fall hours behind their
schedule because they are heavier than
the locomotives are capable of trans
porting at schedule speed.
These figures represent the approx
imate value of equipment that will be
added in addition to new freight cars.
For the latter on the two roads, Man
ager O'Brien has asked for cars that
will mean a further expenditure of
$1,860,000 anl on which the eastern
officials have given a qualified ap
proval. A large part of the new
freight equipment asked will be order
ed but the extent of the purchases
throughout the year will depend on
later conditions. The total represent
ed in the equipment budget for the
two systems in this state and In Wash
ington is about $4,630,000.

$1,000,000, according to the standard
price list of such equipment. The
vaiue of the hew freight equipment,

Engines to Be of Atlantic Type.
The requisitions that have been ap
proved for Southern Pacific equip
ment will run up to about $630,000,
while the new freight equipment will

The Atlantic type engines ordered
for the O. R. & N. passenger service
are similar to those used on the New
York Central fast trains. The Pacific
type of engine has been abolished on
the Harriman system.
The big order for freight cars and
engines on the O. R. & N. is account
ed for In the Increase of tonnage In
sight, not only through extensions, but
also because of rapid development of
the Interior and increasing demands
for western lumber. Growth of the
northwest also Is Increasing the vol
ume of westbound transcontinental
traffic.
At the list price on boxcars quoted
by the manufacturers, which is $1200
fach, the one order for 1200 boxcars
means a total expenditure of $1,440,-000.
