Am OFF Week in Freight Traffic.

1t is hardly proper to say that the volume Of
freight business moved over Indianapolis lines
last week was disappointing as it is really sur
prise that the movement shows up so favorably
when the character Of the weather, and the con-
dition of the tracks, the early part Of the week,
is taken into consideration. On four of the
northern roads not freight train was run on
Monday Tuesday or Wednesday, and all other
roads were more or less affected by the unusu-
ally severe weather for Indiana. However, the
direct east and west lines did fair business,
all things considered, and with good track the
mcnly question is to be, where can cars be
ct to carry the property2 With the marked
increase in east bound business there is, we'll,
q heavier movement west-bound, and it is be-
GeYed that with favorable conditions the ton
nage both east and west bound will. for a few
weeks to come exceed that of any previous
period in the history of Indianapolis lines. To
be sure rates are low, yet with good track and
cars loaded both ways, there would be some
money to the roads in carrying business at the
present rates. Local traffic has been rather
slow during the unfavorabe time for moving
freights. There is every prospect for good
business, however. when more springlike
weather is in order. There is heavy move
ment of coal, but livestock traffic has been
nearly at stand-stil for a few days past
Below we give the number of ears received and
forwarded at this point in the two weeks ending
