TONNAGE is INCREASING
THE RAILWAYS NOW HAVE ALL THE
FREIGHT THEY CAN CARRY.
Southern Pacific Inaugurates New
Method to Prevent DemOraliza-
ton by ScaIping OF Tickets.

The train records show that there were
received and forwarded at Indianapolis
in the week ending Aug. 81 a total OF 2S4l4
cars, 22,97S being loaded, an increase over
the week ending Aug. "a Of 9Ol loaded
cars, an increase over the corresponding
week of 1900 of 2,513 an increase over the
cores ponding week of 1899 of 1,503. When
the larger dimensions of a majority of the
cars now in use is considered, il is no ex-
aggeration to state that the roads are
handling the largest tonnage since opened
10 traffic This is further demonstrated in
the fact that, despite the large addition
to equipment of thousands of cars and
hundreds of locomotives within the last
eighteen months, there is a shortage Of
cars and of locomotives TO handle the
business offered. East-bound there has
been some increase in shipments of grain
and grain products the last few days, but
they are still below the average volume
at this season of the year. Shipments of
provisions, flour, dressed meats and prod
uce exceed those of a corresponding pc
riod last year. West-bound, in higher
class freights, business is in excess Of last
year; in lower class freights there is some
decrease in tonnage, probably due to the
steel strike. Anthracite coal should be
excepted, as the tonnage in this line is
unusually heavy-in fact, limited to cars
that can be furnished and power to haul
them. This is illustrated in the fact that
the Lake Shore one day last week had
several thousand cars of anthracite coal
standing on sidetracks at division points,
awaiting power to haul them. Local bust
ness is at its maximum, and so varied in
character TO include almost every arti-
Gle named in the classification. The north
and-south lines are handling more loaded
cars than last year, the movement in op-
posite directions being well eqGalized.
Local lines are handling a good deal Of
Indiana, Ohio and West Virginia Goals.
The oldest in time of service of the local
agents say they have never known time
when the situation was satisfactory as
at present. The table below shows the
number of cars handled at this point for
the week ended Aug. 81 and for the CORE
SpOnding weeks of 1000 and 1899:
