THE CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUNE: MONDAY, OCTOBER 8i, 18:s THE “IRON HORSE.” What the Locomotive Has Accom- plished for Civilization and Chicago, A Short and Compact Pedigree of the ¢ Iron Horse.” _How the Genius of an Inventor Was Em- ployed by a Museum Manager. Remarkable Career of the Loco- motive in this City. Nearly 2,000 Engines ' Operated on Roads Leading Into Chicago. Burke once said, that the civilization of Europe depended upon two principles, Viz.: the spirit of & gentleman, and the spirit of re- ligion. In Americs, religion has had much fo do with civilization, and from its influences we have received some of our grandest principles. Buot it may with reason be declared that much of the civilization of America has depended for the past twenty-five years upon the locomotive engine. Ithasbeen the motive power in all the ‘wonderful progression we have made for many gears past. If it had never been invented, the civilization of this age would have come only after the lapse of centuries of ages in the future. Perhaps the greatest work of this wonderfal animal has been doing is the building of this City of Chicagn. No one will gainsay the asser- tion that the City of Chicago owes her existence to the “ Iron Horse"—that it gave to her a porer which fire could notdestroy, and a vitality more vigorous than any city in the world. Take from Chicago the ‘“ Iron Horse,” and & human body without blood would possess sbout as much animafion. Since, then, this ¢ Iron Horse " has done eo much for us, it maynot be uninteresting to give here omewhat of his pedigree, his grand career in this city, and a few hastily gathered facts concerning his Isbor, food, and average life. Insodoing, we ehall consider only the American ¢ Iron Horse,” since he is the animal which has done the great work for us. The American * Iron Horse” was sired by Mathias W. Baldwin, in the city of Philadelphie, on the 25th dsy of April, 1831, He was created, not to supply the necessities of commercs, but the necessities of the musenm of Mr. Franklin Peale, of that city. Of course he was but the # Iron Horse ” in miniature, but was, neverthe- less, a most wonderful invention. He was vis- jted by many thousands, and his swift manipn- lations upon a track leid within the museum walls, astonished and confounded all who wit~ nessed them. The enterprise of musenm man- sgers has produced many stapendous frauds, and for this reason it has been severely denounced. But when one remembers thet, employing the genius of a wonderful inventor, it was the enter- prise of & museum manager, which inaugurated the manufacture of the locomotive engine inthe United States, hewill not 8o severely denonnceit. The construction of this ture machine suggested the ides of the comstruction of sn Iron Home of larger dimen- sions, one asefal for. commerce. ‘With the exception of a few English engines, the- Jocomotions of which had besn very imperfect, the motive power of the few railroads then in the United States, was farnished by horses. But the need for steam power had been felf. The locomotive in the musenmhad not run many months before Mr. Baldwin was solicited by the Germantown, Norristown & Hamburg Railrosd to make for them s locomotive. Mr. Baldwin &t first refused to do 8o, fearing that s failure wonlg be the result :{Il!:l! labors. IHE was final- 1; oTvever, prev: upon to commence s vork Quthed only by observations made upon &n old and vexgoim erfect English engine storedin a shed at ntown, N. J., and the experience acquired in the consfruction of the sminiatare engine, he began to work. After en- ‘countering untold dificulties, ho had the honor of completing the first American locomotive en- ine. It o ita trial trip on the 23d day of Fiovember, 1632, This engine %as named, 0ld Tronsides,” & name which hes becoms familiar gince the Iate war. Its wheels, of which there were four, were all drivers, ifs_cylinders wero B¢ inches in dismeter, and its stroke 18 inches. @ trial trip of this engine excited greater won- der and surprise than the exhibition of any in- ventive genins has ever produced. The manipu- 1ations of the engine were not quite perfect, and ghe failed to do_all that was promised of her. This produced diseatisfaction, and the Directors of the road refused to psy the price at which ghe was contractod, viz., $4,000. A compro- mise was finally effected ab $3,500, a price far below the average cost even of locomotives now- a-days. The li:fix ty in the settlement, and tho many difficulties Mr, Baldwin encountered in the construction of the “‘Ironsides " made him resolve to quit the business atonce, and he vas heard to remark, ““that is our last locomo- tive.” But this was only the language of vexa~ tion, for it waa not only after this that he took orders for _other' engines, and. he afterwards established the Baldwin Locomotive ‘Works of Philadelphis, -Mr: Baldwin lived to g the productions of his most remarkable gen- §us become the greatestin power in the world, the lead-horses of American civilization. Itmay be here remarked, that before Mr. Baldwin had built his fifth engine, he had succeeded in over- coming almost all of the defects of his firat en- ine, and g0 perfect an engine did he succeed in Frilding, that, in the zusin, it hss been littloim- proved upon. Indeed, so far as pi es go, there nepfew important and comygnste; pieces of machinery in which there have been less al- terations. e improvements of the mostim- portant character were made, in the main; during the infancy of their manufacture, and the latter improvements are Tather conveniences than necessities. But these latter improvements, al- $hough properly called conveniences, have added much to the working power of the locomotive engine. g‘m‘. ‘while there have been but few improve- ments of grest moment since the infancy of the mannfacturs of locomotives, and, indeed, a8 inthecase of the boilers, o return to first inventions, it vet must not therefore be thought that there is no room for further improvement in_the locomotive engine. Dos- pite its power o dash over mountains, throngh valleys, and across rivers, at & speed which les the winds, it msy yet be much Improved upon. Many defécts might be mentioned, Locomotive ngineers have had no tougher problem to solye tpan that of burning coa) succosafully and eco- pomioally. One of the chief difficulties to be overcome, is the destruction of the fire boxes and flues, After years of experiment, the prac- tico Lins nob much’ changed, except in the pro- portions of tho boilers, Thera was, indeed, great dificulty found at first, in using coal at gll, because the size of the fire-box reguired for wo00d was Fmeller than that needed for cosl, 50 that it became hard to meke steéam enough with the old boilers. But it was discovered that thére was no nccessity for o much grate sur- garface, and the engines were proportioned ac- cordingly. Theré hove bsen many inventions ta protect the flues snd fire-boxes. Among these the invention of Mr. C. T. Jewett is one of the best. This device, whilp it saves the fiugs, end consumes 30 per cent iess coal than 1l ordinary fire-box, will consume all smoke if roperly cared for. 1t i also claimed, that with Ft an engine will steam botter. Itis in general ase on the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Rosd, of which Ar, Jewett was, until re- ently, the mester mechenlo. The fifst cngines fnade gsed only wood. But now, dospite the ‘distinotion of flues and fire-boxes, roads A&re using, as far as pogsible, coal-burpers, . There is yoom for !m}axfivfimeng, also, in the Facing of tho weight of tho engino and {ender ‘on the drivers, 5o that there shall be the small- est possible amount of dead weight, It is well known by reflroad men that the weight of an ordinary eight-wheeled locomotive, with loaded tender, is 94,000 pounds, 40,000 pounds only of shich weight is utilized by tho driying rheels, losving 64,000 pounds of dead weight, Ko, if grentor. weight is thro¥n upan tho drivers, tho whool bues is sanae too long, and the engine will traverse curves roughly. If the weight is wpon the trucks the adhosion is lost, These are Aifiiculties which, without resariing to sn engine of 3 Teverse build trora that now used, it seems {mpossible to overcome. But the genius of in- ‘>ntion scems to partake 0 largely of the power. of divinity, thet 3t is not unressonsblo to be- Tieve that, i time, 21l the imperfections will be overcome.” £ L Lo . Among the mavy improvements made in the 3 ine, that msy be mentioned, ste E‘;’;’,‘,‘,’fi‘;‘};fl?fi%‘g valves, by which all pressure in kept off thovalves; tho steam injector, by means of which sn engine can be pumpe p when standing still; the improved graduator B e ating more nccurately the admission of steam into the cylinders. There are many other jmprovements, that deserve mention, buf our ace will not permit us to refer to them. . Thera is no important machine, upon the im- rovements in which there have been so few patents, as the locomotive. Hence the best improvements gre found in a1l engines, no ‘matter where they wers built. Thisprevents, in & great messuro, tho engino of one maker from sequiring & character of its own. Baid a dis- tinguiehed master-mechanic to the writer the other day, ‘“Remove the builder's plate from an engine, and, if there were no exterior adorn- ments, which were familiar to me es peculiar to. any maker’s engine, I doubt not I would be una- ble to tell you whers it was built.” To ‘be sure, Engineors have their fovorite engines, but not one in twenty can give you any technical reason for hig preference. The Baldwin engine .is pre- ferred by some roads, because all engines. of & clags, manufactured i)y these works, are dupli- cates, 80 that an engine is easily repairad. The Rogets engines are preferred by others, be- cauge ere 18 little cast-iron used in their construction. Engines are generally built upon order, and the purchaser generally orders the engine to be made after his own ideas. But all roads agree that locomotives of their own construction are superior to those made by reg- ular builders. The ressons assigned are, that they are more careful in selecting mzl:erid, and that, instead of the various parts being manu- factured by men skilled only to make one piece of the engine, as is the case in large locomotive works, they are made and fitted by experienced machinists ekilled to manufacture ell parts of the engine. And this leads us to the question, Will the various roads unltimately manufacture their own engines? In this there is ‘much dif- ference of opinion. Some roads Bay they can build engines cheaper than they can buy them ;. othersesy they can mnot, end the general con- clusion seems to be that where a road is com- Paued to have large repeir shops, and employ. & arge number of experienced machinists, 1t can build its own engines chesper than they can be bought, but otherwise not, since the work in the {’Ogn.lu‘ locomotive "-‘vcxks is 5 sdon:r a m:n.‘;;!{ly apprentices, whose Wi g - imfi\l')eply gmall. The Pittsburgh & Fort- syne Road are building all their own engines, and have taken s fow orders from other roads. But this they would not do, were they not com- pelled to carry on s repair shop. All the rosds &re constantly building engines, but it is done mainly to keep employed the men they are com- pelled to employ to do therepairs. . We ghall now proceed to e 8 fow gencral statements regarding the *Iron Horse,” which have been gleaned mainly from practical rail- rond men. o The average cost of the “Iron Horse" is £12,000. The prices vary of course, with the size and quality. There are engines, snd many of them too, valned at £35,000 ;_nn& there are others valued at £5,000. The prices of engines have been incressing, rather than decreasing, with the improvements that haye been added to them. Porhaps this is the case with ali valuable inventions. The average weight of the ‘ Iron Horse ” i3 60,000 pounds. This does not dimin- ish or increase, a8 he retains, unlike most horses, the same weight from yearto year. The average Tife of an engine is 25 years; that is to esy, that the machinery proper will, by annual repairs last that length of time, although the frame will Iast for an indefinite period. Whe boiler gencrally lasts about 14 years, while the valve has to -ba renewed every year. The ¢ Iron Horse” will travel, on an average of 50,000 miles a year,-or 750,000 miles in a lifetime. The “iron horse” costs its owners for food and care, about 20 cents per mile ran, and for repairg about 8 centa. No engine on any well regulated rosd travels longer than a year without being taken apart and given 8 general housecleaning, a8 it were, just as a tailor rips up an old ent, examines every seam and stitch, 5o the iron horse is torn asund: er, his legs are removed, his ribg exgossd,‘ and ‘his stomach Lhorongh!iiademsafl, -his outside clothing is repolished, hia cheeks ropainted, and he is brought out as new and perfect as When be first rogs the track. = The manufacture of locomotive engines- in Chicago, is matter which is possessed of much importance. It was hemm:’x Scovell & Bons, but, from lack of capital experience, they were compelled to suspend operations.. The great number of railroads infthe West makes it an Imperative necessity that there be large and im- portant locomotive works in the West. - Chicago, ‘with her splendid system of railroads, her con- convenience to all the raw materials used in the building of locomotives, must yet become great in the building of locomotive engines. Promi- nentrailroad men have informed the writer within the past week, that locomotive works must be established ~ somewhers in the ‘West, and that no place possesses greater natu- ral uiuntages for the suceessful carrying on of the work than Chicago, It is difficult to under- stand why our capitalists are not interestini themaelves in this matter. All the raw materi is at our doors, and there cxists not one diffi- culty in the way of the establishment of locomo- tive works in Chicago which shall rival any Eastern builders. We trust something may be done in this matter before another yesr passes. The career of the * Iron Horse" in Chicago has been one of the most remarkable on record. The time made hes never .been beaten, and the money won in the race has made Chicagh nota~ ble as the place where the per cent of profit is large. When the ides of bringing the “‘Iron Horse" to Chicago was first ngmmds, there were men who frowned at it, and shook their heads with all the wisdom of ignorance. It was said by them that the railroad would ruin the country trade of Chicago. Perhaps it is well for these entlemen that their names wera never given, or they woyld assuredly have become synonyms for all things absurd and ridiculous. The first railroad company in Chicago was the Galena & Chicago Union Railrond, It was or- ganized April 5, 1847. The late John B. Turner was the active manager. By Dec. 15, 1848, the first ten miles of the road had been completed, and the first locomotive west of Liake Michigan had been put npon the track. 5 The Horse™ began its race in Chicagd® on the morning of the 10th day of October, 1848, but a little more than 24 years sgo. The engi- neer, to whom was given the honor of hold.iz:fi the reing in the inauguration of this wonderfu race, was John Ebert, Esq. This gentleman is still a resident of the city, and we shall refer to him again before the closg of this article. The engine was aptly termed the * Pioneer,” and was one of the first built 2t the ehops of Mathias W. Baldwin. These shops were established in 1832, and the Pioneer was_comstructed in 1830 She +was & second-hand _engipe, 8nd was purchased by the Galena company from the Rochester & Batavia Bailroad in New York. Her cylinder was_1ix18. She had two driving wheels, 64 inches in diameter,and weigh- ed 2,400 1bs, Hor frame wus wood. This old citizen, althongh now 36 years old, is still um‘.g,- gervice as switch engine for the C. & N. Road, into which the Galena road was merged a fow years ago. She has been partly rebailt, bat is still the seme quaint, saucy looking machine she was the morning of the 10th of October. 1848, when she began the wonderful race of the “Iron Horse in Chicago.” Would it ‘not bo ghowing her proper honora for the city to pur- chase her, and piace her on. exhibition, as’the lend-horee of the great train of 1,899 iron horses which daily run out of thecity, p By the report of_the Sufirmfiandent of. the Galena & Chicago Union Road, made April 5, 1849, we learn that “the Company have onliand one second-hand locomotive, which is in good order and will answer all the purposes of the road for some time to come, A new 15-tonen- ine has been contracted for with Monis & ros. of Philfldal{)hin., end will be sent when nevigation opens.” It algo eays that one trip s dsy will continue to be made, when it will not interfere with the construction of the road;” after a lapse of twenty-four years fully 870 trips are made a day. The engine referred: 10 a8 being contracted for, was the second en- gine brought to Chicago. Bhe was ngtly termed the ‘‘Active,” and was bronght here when “ navigation opencd” in the spring of 1850, She was a Norris engine, built in 1849, ‘The diame- ter of her cylinder was 113¢ by 22 inches, -She had double drivers, and weighed 40,000 pounds. Her firat engineer was Peter Ebert, brather of John. This gentleman'is dead. This engine is still in uctive seryice. g8 5 switcher, She was rebuilt by the Galenp & Chicago Union in ’63, The third'engine in Ohicaga” was the E]%h Bhe was an exact duplicate of the Active, e waa engineered by Nate Norton, who-is now dead. Then followed tbe Whitiesy, eugineered by Jas, Clark, This engine was afterward traded to the Aurora Road, in whose' service it still continues. Then followed the Rocket, which was tho first engine on the Aurors Road. This was = Hinkly engine, drop hook mation, 14x20 cylinder, She is now switcling in the Chiggo switeli-yard of the Chicago,” Burlington & Quincy Road. The Pigeon was the first en- ine on the Michigan Central. The Marion was ;{ e gioneer engine of the Chicago .& Bt. Ljanis oad. g2 5 The saventh engine of the Galena Roadwas the Illinois. This engine crossed the ocean before she sailed the lakes. She wag built by the Nor- xis Works, for the Emperor of Russia, She was Mr, Norrig to Liverpool, according to the agreement, *-Thé Emperor allowed her tolay in a warehouse a} Liverpool for & number of ears, here, she was ' 80ld to pay storage. . Mr. orrig “bought ier;* and ha s reshipped to Philadelphia. A few months afterward she was sold to the Galena Road. Sheis still on daty, the survivor of much travel and rough ussge. None of the pioneer engines of the Chicago roads have been subjected to severe accidents, and, 80 far as can be _ascertained, they are sll in service in some capecity orother. The engineers of these engines have not fared so well. Mr, John Ebert, the first engineer of s locomotivein Chicago, still lives in the city. After -serving a year as engineer, he was made Master Mechanic .of the Gelena Road, which position he held twolvoyears. He wasafterward Amsistant Supor- intendént for two_years. He thon retired from railroading, and is now superintendent of the heating department at the Court House. Mr. ‘Ebert was also the . first engineer to run en engine out from Detroit, which be did in the winter of 1833, ‘on the Michigan Central. _He is now in his 57th year, is amanof comfortable fortune, full of youthful- energy, and surrounded by a happy family. M. Ebert has played no unimportant part-in the history of railroeds in the West. We are in- debted to Lim for much of the matter hercin contained regarding the old engines of the city. Nr., Dan. Mcglu.umnn was the second engineer in Chicago, e having succeeded Mr. Ebert on the Pioneer. He is still o resident of the city, end is tho engineor in one of the Bridgeport blagt furnaces. Mr. Peter Ebert and Nate Nor- ton were the next engineers ; both are dead. James Clark, tho fifth engincer in Chicego, is pov living a Pike's Peak. He ran one sngine five years without an accident of any kind what- ever. 1Ir. Cooley, foreman at the round houses of the C., B. & Q. R. R., was one of the pioneer engineers of Chicago. Ho ran the Rocket, the first ongine on the Aurora Road, now merged intothe 0., B. & Q. This gentleman’ ran the Westwind fix years, without tho slightest acei- dent, and ho ran fourteen years himself, without accident. Did our space permit, we would make mention of many other engineers, whose honor- sble records in running for a long period of time, without accident, make them worthy of -public mention. ‘We shall close this article with a few general statements regarding the - numbor of ¢ Iron Horses” there are on the roads in the city, their value, and other matters of general interest. There aro now on the roads in this city, 1,899 engines, valued on an average of $12,000°apiece. This would make their total value $22,788,000. These engines are distributed as follows : Chi- cago & Northwestern, 270; Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne & Chicago, 2385 Chicago & Bt. Lonis, 1445 Tllinois Central, 197 ; Chicago, Danville & Vincennes, 21 ; Michigan Central, 205; Chicago, Burlington & Quincy, 201; Lako Shore sn Min!u(;m Southern, 316 ; Rock Island & Pacific, 182, 'The number of regular daily: trains the Tron Horse” pulls out of the city iz 178; and | tho number in, 169, making a. total of 837 regu~ Iar trains. If we add to these the average num- ber of irregular trains, we have a grand total of- 370 dally trains, The following will show at @ pglanco something of the work “the Iron Horse in Chicago” performs in g year: He takes out, and brings in, 135,050 trains a year. Ho earns about £83,000,000. He brings in = profit of 929,175,119, He transports over the various roads he travels upwards of 6,000,000 passengers, or sbout one-seventh of the population of the world. He represents $400,000,000 of capital. 7 4 Burely the ‘‘Iron Horse in Chicago” is & pover ¢ at shall build up & city, to which no it may now be put. And this railroad inter- est is yet in its infenoy. When the *great West *"shall be settled up, and her vast resour- ces fret:llf developed, thia railroad interest in Chi- cago wil now comprehand. RAILROAD GROWTH. The following extracts are taken from 2 con- m:x:zlflun to the Pl;‘ilmielphm North fin;irican: cans, generally speaking,s, vo B ve 1iraifod degeie of IAfoFmation 1o Tegard to tho hiatory of the locomotive and power of steam travelling. Few of this day arc aware that, a3 early a8 1809, twenty ‘years before the trialtrip on the Liverpool & Manchester Railway, Oliver Evana endeavored to establish a rail. Wy between New Yorkand Philadelphia, offering to embark every dollar hewas worth in the enterprise, Yot such is the fact. There being no raiiways in America, A, Evans, in 1767, sent draughts and_speel- fications of his plans to England by Captain Masters, of Annapolls, Maryland, 17945, he sgain sent thither his plans by Joseph Stacy Sampson, of Boston, Mags., and yet in 1799 he'sent thither his plan by CBacles Taylor, In short from the fact that Ricbard Trevithick, who in 1803 patented in England the high-pressure locomotive, introduced. into Corn- ‘i high-pressure enging, thereis hardly o reasonable doubt but that he appropriated without sc- knowledgment the inventions of Mr. Evans, Oliver Evans’ plan for o railway was thatit * be lald sonearly level as not to deviate in any place more than two d from s horizontal line, mado of Wood or izon on amooth parks of broken stome or gravel, with ‘a rail to guide the carriages, 50 that they zuay puss each other in differerent directions, and travel by night as well as by day.” The sole resson why the locomotive was not used on rails in Americs years before it was in Great Britain, was because is inventor (Qliver Evans) Dad not of his own mesns sufficlent to build & railway, and he 6ould not induco Americans of his day ta sab- scribe onoe dollar, Hence it was that he aimed to run. his device on turnpikes, and invited co-operation, point &t the time to the eminent success of his ele- ator, the hopper-boy, and his other inventions, which had revolutionized the manufacture of flour ; also, to bis invention for making machine o8 evidences of the general correctness of his views, but he failed to obtain co-operation, and, unlike the more fortunate Watt (who had enlisted for the low- pressure engine men of capital), Mr. Evans was com- pelled to furnish himself both the mental and pecuni- ary means for those pract e from time to time conducted, and referring back to ‘which, some thirty years afterward, Elijsh Galloway, tho British writer on steam, declated proved Oliver Evans to be not only the first inventor of the locomo- tive, but also of the firat practicsl steamboat, Unable to move his countrymen, Mr. Evans ren- @ered the following Temarkable prophecys * The pres- ent generation will use the next generation will ‘prefer railroads, with horses, but their more enlight~ ened successors will employ Iny steam carriage on raile ways, 05 the perfection of the art of convoyance, In tho meantimo the stesm carrisgo msy be tested, aven on the present turnpikes,” As Oliver Evana died in 1819, 20d_tho sbove prediction was rendered several ears prior to hip doath, nome, with the ovents of to- day in view, can fail to remark its perfect fulfilment, THE LAW COURTS.
