CHICAGO, February 6.-COmplaints are again
being made of freight blockade on eastern
roads. The main trouble seems to be in the
Trunk line territory, where the roads are SO
crowded with cans that il Is next TO impossible
to get shipments through to the seabOard.
The Trunk lines are also accused of holding
thousands Of empty cars, refusing to return
them except when they can be utilized in the
shipment of west bound freight. The west
ern roads are also working hard to keep their
tracks clear at Missouri river crossings, where
another blockade is threatened.
