Phenomenal Growth of Business
Greater Than Can Be Handled b,
Transportation Companies.
LINES BLOCKED By CARS
New Equipment Ordered by Various
Railroad { mpanies Has
SNamped the Manufactures.

All the great trunk lines are suffering
from what is known among railroad
men as a famine Of cars" The
amount Of stuff offered is entirely out
Of proportion TO the amount of rolling
stock Of the various companies, and the
consequence is that shippers have to
wait
The business all over the country is
phenomenal. The railroads are simply
unable t. handle the business, and
though the temporary inconvenience is
to be deplored, yet it is so encouraging
sign OF prosperity that there is not a
shipper who des not accept the situa-
tton gracefully, fully confident that the
different roads are doing all they can
to get their stuff out of the way.
The amount Of goods that is awaiting
transportation is something enormous,
and some idea Of this vast traffic can be
obtained when 1t is said that there are
twenty-five miles Of cars on sidings
outside of Chicago unloading or TO be
passed through.
The business is phenomenal. There
has heen nothing like it in the history
Of railroading and the officers Of the
different companies are as much per-
picked as their patrons.
Manager Fillmore Of the Southern
Pacific Company in speaking of the
situation to a San Francisco reporter
recently, said:
I'VE, as well as all the other roads,
are suffering on account Of a famine of
cars. This famine applies to all the
trunk lines in the United States. The
traffic has been so great thai there is
not a trunk line which is not having
trouble owing to the scarcity Ct cars 10
handle the volume Of business offered.
We are probably better off than our
neighbors. At present we have 25O cars
Of east bound freight at Sacramento
ana Rocklin, principally at Rocklin.
This accumulation Of freight Is part
Is due to the burning of our snowsheds
in the mountains; before that we were
enabled to keep the freight moving by

NEVER SAW ASTORIA.
Therefore General Breckenridge Thinks
Seattle the Only Port on Pacific
Coast.

Seattle Post st-Intelligencer.
Inspector General ]. c. Breckenridge
Of the United States army, arrived in
the city last evening from a tour OF
inspection Of the army posts in Alas
ka. He is a guest OF the Rainier Grand,
where he spent last evening In company
with CAPT. w. W. Robinson, jr., and
a party of friends.
What do think Of Seattle as a de-
pot for supplying the Philippine army?
Well think everything" said Gen.
Brccklnridge when asked the question.
You have every advantage here. Rail-
ways, deep water energetic citizens
and the shortest route according to the
circle Of navigation to Manila bay. am
not here on an official visit. You know
we all get twenty-four days leave OF
absence, and while have not been ask
ed to look into the comparative growth
Of the coast cities with view TO Sc
lecting one most suitable to army needs
as they have developed, 1 am going to
do so on my own account. I will, how
ever, make no report Of the matter un-
less asked to do so by the department
Il visited Spokane and other Western
posts on my way to the coast before
leaving for Alaska. From here I will
go to Portland, San Francisco, Salt
Lake and Denver, and will visit all the
posts.
Il can say this, that on the question
Of sea carriage to the Philippines the
theory Of the earth's circle puts Seattle
to the front with a great advantage
over other coast cities. The great ques-
ton with me is not how much Seattle
Is used by the army, but why It is not
used more. The city has been given a
vantage by Divine Providence, and now
It remains for an energetic people to
make It effective. The question is set
tied that nature has made here a place
for the great trade Of the Philippines.
Seattle is already a commercial CEN

Of center. The situation In this city
is not yet thoroughly developed. Until
this has been done the military can
not permanently locate here. The mil
itary must go where the commerce is;
must go where the center Of business
Is. When Seattle has more thoroughly
developed then more Of the army is in
store for her.

Carlos GutlIeraz, citizen Of San
Salvador, who was a cadet at the Uni
ted States Military Academy, has re-
signed at the end Of his furlough which
comes to an end Of the second year
because OF the revolution in his native
land which deposed his father from the
presidency. The reason given is that
the altered fortunes Of the father make
1t impossible to pay the monthly allow
ance which his sons position at the
academy required.

tions as regards this city, II Is not a
question OF sending a regiment OF troops
to be permanently stationed here. That
Is incidental The great question ls,
where will the department find the best
point to operate from for the Philip
pine needs? As I said before, every
thing needful Is here, and only awaits
development. | am much impressed
with Seattle as a natural military
base. It only requires energetic work
on the part Of your citizens to bring 1t
to the front When this is accomplish
ed the army will not be slow to taxa
advantage of the opportunities offered
ut this point"
Gen. Breckenridge will remain here
several days, looking over the points Of
interest from a military standpoint,
and then will proceed to Portland.

American commerce and American in
fucnce In the Orient The democratic
party was opposed to It's annexation.
Ex-Congressman Hartman in Butte
lnvelghed against It's acquisition and
said 1t would prove a great national
burden. Yet what American soldier who
ever saw 1t would vote to give It up,
or give up Porto Rico or the Philip
pines' Why should they be given up?
Why throw away the fruits Of the war
won by American valor in two hemls-

400 Commercial Street,

doubling our engines, making them
run double trips, you understand.
= The roads in and out Of Chicago are
suffering. They are in pretty bad fix,
and are unable to handle the business
offered them. There are thousands Of
cars standing on the sidings waiting to
get In and through Chicago. There
may be little let up in the volume Of
business by January /, but there is yet
no indication Of falling off in the
freight offered One thing has been in
our favor The low price offered for
wheat has made the farmers hold it in
the warehouses. II wheat was bringing
price at which the farmers would
sell We would be unable 10 furnish cars
without shutting off other freight.
The handling Of government freight
ard troops has cut a large figure in
our traffic for the past few months. The
Asiatic trade is also very heavy and
our fruit crop has exceeded that Of any
season, or rather in the history Of the
railroad. The export has been large in
green fruit, dried fruit and canned
goods Several Of our divisions could
use more cars If they had them.
I'VE are building more cars all the
time. and we are receiving from six to
eight cars a day, and Of 5000 new cars,
that were TO have ben delivered from
the east not later than May and the
last by September 1st, we have receiv-
ed only 400. The eastern manufacture
ers are so pressed with orders from all
directions that they are unable to turn
them out. heard that Mr. Hunting
ton wanted TO place an order with a
firm in New York state for locomotives.
The reply was that the firm could not
possibly deliver them until after Au-
gust Of next year.
"We feel pretty confident about our
owr ability to handle the orange crop.
We have contracted with the refriger-
ator companies for 2OOe cars to handle
the orange trade.
We have been doing the best we
can with the shippers and have been
dividing UP our equipment on the pro
rata system, so as to keep all going ard
show no favoritism. Our patrons have
been very conslderate and appreciate
our difficulties as fully as we do, and
they have accepted the situation grace
fully.
There has been very little COM
piaint We expect to receive five new
engines on November 1st and we have
an order for 1000 fat cars and 500 stock
cars Of which we are getting from six
to eight day"
Ir fact all the lines are clamoring for
cars. and the orders that have been
given during the year far exceeds the
orders for many years. The Northern
Pacific has an order for over 1000 cars:
Davenport, Rock Island & Northwest
crn sixteen passenger coaches, $50 box
cars. 200 coal cars, fifty fat cars; Chica-
80 & Alton 800 box cars, and they are
getting fifteen new cars daily, 100 furni-
tuBe cars; Louisville & Nashville six
teen passenger cars and 1920 freight
cars; Texas Midland 100 box cars:

were 1000 cars ordered by the Denver
& Rio Grande, which were being sent
them from an Indianapolis manufact-
ory These cars were appropriated by
the different lines over which they
Travelled. and vigorous search is being
made for them.
The order for locomtlves is cores
pondingly large. the Atchison, Topeka
& Santa Fe having ordered seventy-five
new consolidated engines lately.
