NOT A SINGLE ENGINE
At Work In Local Yards Last Night.
a Very Unusual Thing.

Apropos of slow business conditions
in this region at present, the Balt1-
more and Ohio Railroad Company did
not have a single switch engine on
duty in the yards at this place last
night This condition has not existed
in at least twenty-one years.
The railroad company has plenty
of cars on hand, but the coal opera
tors seem to be minus orders, or at
least they are in no hurry to fill what
orders they now have A few cars
were. loaded to-day, but the coalbill-
ing force here has no Instructions
TO card these out, which means a de-
Law of at least a day in shipment.
