LACK oF CARS.
West Virginia Coal Operators Much
Hampered.

The West Virginia coal operators
are much hampered blythe scarcity Of
cars. especially the flat-bottomed
condolas. The locol trade generally
calls for these cars, as they are easily
unloaded. Cars should make two
trlps between this state and Balti-
more each week, but an operator says
they do not average one. There isa
scarcity of motive power on the
Baltimore and Ohio that no doubt
accounts for much of this delay. One
extensive coal firm hasent circulars
to it's customers informing them that
their orders will be filled as rapidly as
nnSSihle.
