Gasoline Motor Golntr on a Tonr
Chicago, May 2. E. H. Harriman has
approved a plan for an ocean-to-ocean
tour of the first gasoline motor car for
railroad pu poses, just finished and
turned over to the Union Pacific Rail

Navigation Company roads in Chicago
are now arranging tor an elaborate long
distance test of tho novel machine,
which embodies the ideal of Mr. Harri
man himself, who some eight montha

which they bave now solved.
It ia intended to operate the car from
Omaha to Portland, Or., exhibit it for a
few days at the Lewis and Clark expoai

W. Goode, Wednesday. It ia stated to
be in accordance with the usual tactics
at expositions, and ia done largely with
the purpose of keeping the crowds oot
of the way while exbibita are being in
stalled. The new price will obtain, ac
tirdiug to the preaent tentative plan,
until and including May 28, after which
the exposition gatee will be cloned en
tirely to the public, to be opened June
1, at 8 o'clock in the morning, when the
admission prices will be 60 and 25 cents.
Possibly, however, the exposition will
be closed a week before tho opening
day. The president also announces that
the sale of commutation tickets, a' low
ing cheap admission during the entire
exposition, will end finally May 15.
The town of Round I-ake, Minn., waa
struck by a severe storm, resembling a
tornado, during Tuesday night. The
track of the Rock Is'and Railroad were
washed away and building damaged to
a great extent. The destructive part of
the tornado did not take in the whole
town. It cut a narrow path through
the center of the village, and destroyed
four home, a blacksmith shop and sev
eral lams. Only one person was dan
gerously injured.

iwceuiiy me motor made tlie run
from Omaha to Grand Island, Neb., 1.55
miles, in 61 hours, an average speed of
-wi miles an hour. The maximum
speed on this run w as 40 miles an hour,
and but for the fact that the car Is not
yet fitted with full trucks, only four
wheels being under it, a much higher
speed could have been attained. The
machinery waa cool the entire distance.
and the car arrived in Grand Island in
first-class condition. Officers of the
Union Pacific are enthusiastic over the
success of the transportation historv-
making machine, and, finding no de-
fevta or weak spot in it. do not hesitate
to prounounce it a practical motor for
railroad work. The motor is capable of
hauling at least oiie heavy passenger car
over moderate grades. Contrary to
popular belief, the machine la propelled
entirely by gaaoline, there being no
electric motor. By a new contrivance
the jerking sensation incident to the
starting of electric cars has been orer-
come.
Chicago railroad experts are talking of
little else but the new motor, believing
it is destined to supplant all other terms
of transportation power. On steam
roods it will quickly displace the preaent
engines for short hauls and suburban
service, abating the smoke nuisance in
large cities, leaving only the long
through runa for steam, and on the lat
ter it is believed the little gaaoline ex
ploiter will eventually be king. Regard
ing ths motor, Director of Maintenance
Kruttachnitt, of ths Harriman lines,
says:

as a practical gasoline motor for railroad
