One of the best indications of the con-
stantly and rapidly-increasing business
of the Baltimore & Ohio under its new
administration is the demand for addi-
tional rolling stock and yard ROOM
When the Manufactors' Record exclu-
sively announced over a year ago, that
the receivers had determined to order
several thousand new freight cars, the
public in general were surprised at the
magnitude of the plans. Not only this
number but more also were needed. The
receivers have been authorized to enter
into an agreement for the construction of
1000 box cars The cars are to be built
by the Missouri Car & Foundry Co nnder
contract with the Akron & Chicago
Junction Railroad Co. They are to be
used on the lines of the Baltimore & Ohio
Company, which is to pay mileage for
them at the rate of six mills mile, and
collect that rate for their use by connect
ing roads, Manufacturer Record,

manufactures, miners, stock-raisers and
others, and did much to educate the Wis

The scenic beauties of the countrys
through which the Southern Railway
runs will not be neglected in this exhibit.
Practically this exhibit will be bureau
of information, so that visitors from the
North and abroad can obtain specific
data relative to all branches of industry
in and tributary to the vast number of
points on the Southern Railway.
This exhibit is under the direction of
the land and industrial department of the
Southern Railway with headquarters at
