BOSTON AND MAINE MAKES A.
RECORD

A dispatch to the New England Stat
list of Saturday says: Nearly every
railroad in the country is hard-pressed
for more freight cars in order to carry
the immense amount of freight which
has gradually increased on all railroads.
The condition is due principally to the
increase and steady growth of all kinds
of traffic. From all indications the year
of 1899 will eclipse all former years in
the volume of business done by the
railroads
AS far as the Boston and Maine sys-
tenn is concerned, it can be authorita-
lively stated that this year excels all
others in general freight traffic, but
there has been no complaint as to the
scarcity of cars as yet, and transporta
ton has not been hindered in any way.
1t must be taken into consideration that
the Boston and Maine system spreads
nearly all over New England and that
it provides plenty of cars for the ship
pers and is always on the alert for a
shortage.
Said an official of the road: "Thus
far we have been little Inconvenience
by car shortage, and have been able
to keep shippers supplied with all the
tonnage required, although | will say
that the car service is taxed to its ut
most capacity. The fact that shippers
are being seriously embarrassed through
inability to guarantee prompt delivery
does not affect this system in the least.
Freight traffic is much in excess of that
of last year, but we have experienced
no difficulty in getting cars to handle
the freight thus far. OF course, there
has been shortage in some kinds of
cars; for instance, at times we felt the
need of more fat coal and lumber cars,
as the business is something enormous
just at the present time and in these
particular lines business has been heav-
Ter than ever before and has put the
company's carrying capacity to Sc
we're test, but all that has been received
has been promptly handled.
Transportation managers profess
satisfaction with present conditions, al
though they are universally apprehen-
sive that if business keeps on at this
rate there will be a shortage of cars
but as vet there has been no quibble
and there won't be if we can find the
necessary transportation"

A CARTER CONTRACT CANCELLED.
COMPLETION OF the Work Would Have
Mesnt Expenditure of 1857, 600
(By Telegrapn.)


SAVANNAH. GA. Oct. s-This
morning Captain Gillette. United States
engineer in charge Of the Savannah
district, annulled the contract OF the
Atlantis Contracting Company for
building a breakwater in Tybee roads.
This is the only contract the company
had in this district. There. is one in
the Cumberland sound district with
which Captain Gillette has nothing to
do. He annulled the Tybee breakwa-
ter contract because he was ordered to
do SO by the chief Of engineers. This
is one result Of the Imprisonment of
Captain Q. M. Garter
The contract today aAnulled was en-
tered into October 5, 1896. by Captain
Garter as engineer in charge. The
completion of the contract meant the
expenditure by the government OF
$4,000. OF the contract price s23O,O0O
was paid out in July 1897, less than a
year after the contract was signed.
Soon after Captain Gillette came here
he refused to pass for payment of bills
for large amounts for the contracting
company. The company now claims
that there is now due for this work and
some work done in Cumberland sound
before it was taken out OF the district
about $S30,0OO. This amount Captain
Gillette refused to pay.
