CAR FAMINE IN SIGHT.
Tine Situation Among Eastern Zines
Likely to BE Worst in History.

LIKELY TO he worst in History.
1t is said the opening Of the naviga-
ton in the early spring will find the East
ern railroads facing the worst car fam
Inc in their history. With but little ore
moving and coal traffic also light, the
railroads are unable to supply enough
cars to carry coke to the furnaces, and
with the opening of navigation, when
ore and coal movements viii be heavier,
Inc situation IS likely to be much worse
instead Of better.
There are about 5000 crippled cars in
the PittSburg district now awaiting re-
pairs, and it will hurry each department
10 get the work on these cars finished
by the middle of April. The car building
firms, like the American Car and FOuE-
dry company and the Pressed Steel Car
company, are cautious about accepting
hurrN-up orders, and, although the rail-
roads are begging them to rush all work
as IaSt possible, they cannot make any
assuring promises.
The reports Tor 1900 and 1901 show that
Fennsylvania had 95.724 cars in the
freight service, the PENNSYLVANIA COM
pany 1883, Baltimore q Ohio railroad
54,343, Panhandle 1910. and Pittsburg &
Lake Erie about 5000 Each of these
roads had added about 1000 cars or more
10 its freight equipment since then, and
the PENNSYLVANIA and Baltimore & Ohio
have probably built 600 new cars and
Vet they are short of equipment now.
The Panhandle does not own many coal
cars, as 1t uses Pennsylvania company
cars almost exclusively, and it has at all
times about 5000 Pennsylvania railroad
cars in use on the main line and branches
the regular business of that system NOV

trade more prominently than heretofore
and were In good demand Tho shipments
as a whole made better average OF con.

room for Improvement ON much Of the

strates the great consuming capacity OF the

There was no relief from the "Slut" Of
tomatoes. The arrivals OF the day Gully did
more to dcuoealizo the situation. Ripe
tomatoes went at 25c aud were hard to dis

kept for a few Days commanded better

rule in very good condition, but the supply
