The train covers the 2,886 miles of its run between the two cities in 90 hours and its Toronto-Vancouver run of 2,707 miles in 86 hours. Mr. C. B. Foster. Passenger Traffic Manager. summing up the season's performance, gave out some remarkably interesting figures which afford a partial insight into the magnitude of the task of maintaining such a service. The Trans-Canada Limited began its runs this year on May 18th, and before being discon- tinued made 119 trips in each direction, or 238 in all. The equipment of the train is limited to one baggage, one dining car, four standard sleepers, one 10-compartment car Vancouver to Montreal. and one 10-compartment car Toronto to Winnipeg, with a. drawing room-3-compartment observation sleeper Mont- real to Vancouver, plus a local sleeper on the west-bound movement only from Fort William to Winnipeg. Thus the maxi- mum accommodation available in each direction between the East and Winnipeg is forty-eight sections, twenty-three com- partments and five drawing rooms, while between Winnipeg and the Coast there are forty-eight sections, thirteen compartments and five drawing rooms. The average number of passengers on the train at night varies from seventy-five to 110 on different sections of the line, but for the 119 days the train was in service hast season there was a one-night use of approximately 100,000 berths. The east-bound and west-bound trains together covered 6,292 miles every day, I which includes the distance between Montreal and Vancouver, 2.886 miles, and between Toronto and Sudbury, 260 miles, covered by each train and its Toronto-Sudbury connection. Thus the season's mileage was 758,748 for the 238 trips, or three times the distance from the earth to the moon. Each day four Trans-Canada trains were in motion over the Company's lines in each direction. At 8 A.M. each day, one was west-bound between Cartier and Chapleau, one between Kenora and Winnipeg, one between Medi- cine Hat and Calgary. and one between North Bend and Vancouver, while at that hour one east-bound was approaching Glacier. one approaching Regina. one east of Fort William and one between Chalk River and Ottawa. Ten complete sets of equipment. of which four were in motion each way every day and one was being cleaned, refitted and turned round at each end of the run, were required to maintain the service. 11.01. 9.34 9.69 QKH ' TOSSORONTIO 2 100 9.5 3 172 3 172 -2 or `2C=.}E" 50 ft.

The 5:1 ,- ni .61 The story of the discoveries has been brought to London by Lieut. Keeley, R. N., who, with Commander Blair, had charge of the expedition. Lieut. Keeley arrived in England some weeks ago from Panama where he left the St. George. It was here that he discovered what he claims to be authentic evidence of the descendants of the old English buccaneers who plundered Panama in the sea dog days. I met an explorer, an Amenican ethno- logist, said Lieut. Keeley on his re- turn. `He had come from the jungle which encircles Panama, where he had been befriended by a tribe of Indians who spoke to hlim in perfect Elizabethan Eng- lish. He thinks, and so do I, that these sav- ages are descendants of old sea-robbers who had ventured inland, and, nding a luxurious paradise after much pirating. stayed there.

There were 48 engine runs daily for the service. Including these engine-stops. the trains made only 26 stops on their whole run. It is on this steady movement at a uniform speed over long distances and not on high speed that the trains maintained their fast schedules over the transcontinental journey and the elimination of all but essential stops resulted in the smooth running for which it is noted. Owing to the necessity of changing trains crews on such a long run. about 14 crews, or about 84 men, were required for one trip on each train, while 48 sleeping and dining-car employees were required for each trip on one train or nearly 400 men for this branch of the Trans-Canada service. None of the hundreds of employees whose duties also associate them with the Trans-Canada Limited, but who do'not travel with it, is included in these figures. AMA 1NUl/UV.)
