To Burn Oil.
An official report says the Southern
Pacific saves now $30,000 a month by
burning oil instead of coal in 500 engines
on the western or Oakland division.
When all engines on this division are
burning oil the saving will be $75,000 a
month, and when all engines on the en
tire system are converted into oil burners
no less than $150.000 a month or $1..
HOO.(MM) annually will lie saved. The of
ficial report says $5,000,000 has been
spent in converting the 500 out of 1,400
locomotives into oil burners and in ar
ranging for the future supply of oil. It
is estimated there will be no coal burn,

months.
