An INCREASED TONNAGE
FREIGHT TRAFFIC LAST WEEK WAS
NEAP ITS MAXIMUM VOLUME.
RumOrs of Changes i'm the Policy of
the Pennsylvania Lines-Some OIL
ciaI Transfers Hinted At.

The train records bow that in the week
ending Feb. there We're received and for
warded at Indianapolis 25319 cars, being
near the maximum movement. OF this
number 1900 were loaded, being an in
crease over the number of loaded cars
handled in the preceding week Of 3OS1, and
1873 more than in the corresponding week
of 1856. 1t was the heaviest loaded-car
movement for a week in February in the
history of the local lines. the Big Four,
the Pennsylvania, the Cincinnati Hamilton
& Dayton and the Indiana, Decatur s,
Western all showing the large movement in
loaded cars east-bound. The handsome in
crease is largely in shipments of grain, pro-
Visions, dressed meats and cerealine prod
ucts, and it is stated that east-bound traf-
fic would have been still heavier with some
lines could ears have been furnished TO
supply the demand. East-bound business,
in It's movement at the present time differs
from that of any time for two or three
years. Not only are shipments heavy via
Baltimore Newport News and Norfolk, but
also by New York and Boston; shipments
for export via the two last-named ports
have been heavier the last two weeks than
at any time in some years, and to New
York and New England points, for domes-
tic use, the shipments are heavy as COM
pared with those of many months. Ship
ments of cerealine products and live stock
to the last-named sections are much heav-
Ter. West-bound business shows some in
crease. but is still below its normal mid
winter volume. Freight officials however,
state that there are indications OF an early
Improvement in west-bound business, but
1T should be borne in mind that the revenue
from west-bound traffic when rates are
maintained is much more satisfactory in
the increasing of earnings than on east
bound freights. The Iast three days of last
week local freight agents report percep-
tlble Increase In business at the city freight
depots and in the bulk yards. the milder
weather enabling the commission men to
push their business, and not in years has
there been as much coal and live stock
handled in January and February as this

the increase OF business and are confident
