HOLDING THEIR WHEAT
MANY WESTERN FARMERS ARE
WAITING FOR HIGHER PRICES.
Railways, However, Are Preparing to
Move the Immense Crop by Build
ing New Freight Cars.

ST. LOUIS, Aug. 1.-THE four big roads
that radiate from st. Louis into the wheat
country to the south and southeast are
making active preparations for moving the
big crop when the farmers are ready to
throw that cereal on the market. Just now
the farmers in the territory tributary to
ST. Louis are holding their wheat for higher
prices. The four lines interested in the
movement of grain from the South and
West are the Missouri Pacific, the Missouri,
Kansas & Texas, the St. Louis & San Fran
cisco and the Chicago, Burlington d Quin-
cy. Local railroad men estimate that these
lines have distributed 1880 empty cars in
the wheat-growing region. This equipment
is looked on as merely an advance guard
and will be increased daily.
A large force of men is at work day and
night in this city building 500 new freight
cars for the Missouri Pacific. The Burling-
ton is relying on its own equipment. That
road began sending its surplus rolling stock
70 Nebraska weeks ago and now has nearly
5,OOO cars there. The other two roads men,
TONED are supplementing their own equip
ment with cars from other lines, borrowing
from Eastern roads whenever and wherever
possible They also have an army of car
tracers travelling about the country gath
erlng up their empty cars and sending them

officials say there will not be famine
here, and that the movement of the i'm
