The Pennsylvania Railroad Company
at Pittsburg have been compelled to refuse
freight for the seabosrd buriDg the past few
days on account OF the grip. On one division
where 200 conductors freight and passeng-
er, are regularly employed, 135 were of du-
ty at one time with the grip. New men were
put on some OF the tTaius, but In the major
ity Of the cases IL was impossible TO get new
men, aud when they we're secured they
proved to be more easy victims OF the grip
than the old men. Freight began to collect
on the Eastern division TO such an extent
that few days ago an order was issued to
send no more freight for seaooard points
until further notice. There was blockade
OF freight at Altoona, due to the fact that
the trsinmastsr was unable to get out full
crews. and only about half the usual amount
/ OF freight could be handled.
