EATING
N0RTHBOUND SHAD
Monsters Driven by Hunger
Hover Around Atlantic
Coast
GREATEST NUMBER SEEN FOR YEARS

1~efe''i8 i''~' ~-y '''N~ ~~f'~~'o ~ ~
Fish Are Playing Havoc With
Finny Tribe Bound For Waters in
This Vicinity.
The shad supply may be damaged in
a peculiar manner this year. Schools Of
whales are seen all along the. coast. Be
tween Cape Hatteras and Savannah they
are more numerous. They are feeding upon
the shad and captains say they are work
ing havoc with the fish that are coming
north.
II is the first time I'm many years that
so many whales have been I'm waters bord-
ering on the States. The explanation for
their presence made by sea-faring men is
that the extreme cold OF the winter has
driven the whales into warmer water in
search Of food. They are so numerous
that coastiag vessels and steamers have
considerable difficulty In picking their
way along the coast.
The whales are hungry and the shad
are coming up. They are being devoured
by the hundred.
In southern waters the shad make their
first appearance In January and gradually
work their way up the coas. until they
arrive in local waters about the first Of
April
II the whales continue TO intercept them
there will be but few shad reach the Della
ware Bay in comparison with other years.

ISES TO BE VERY LIGHT.
Charges Against Railroads to

tanned When Investigated.

What promised to be the best week for
Indianapolis lines in their history was
blasted by the severe storms in the latter
part of last week. which cut down the
loaded car movement with every Indian
apolis line as compared with the CORE
spending week of 1903, except the Vandalia
and the Eastern division of the Peoria &
Eastern. The Big Four lines proper ham
died 2,579 fewer loaded cars than in the
corresponding period last year, while the
p. & E. eastern division) showed an in
crease of Sl4 loaded cars, the Panhandle
a decrease of 1881. This decrease is wholly
due to the unusually bad weather in the
latter part of the week, which will be felt,
it is feared, in the coming week, unless
rapid work is made in repairing the roads
that had the most trouble. Aside from
this there is not a discouraging feature in
the business outlook except the impossible
ity of furnishing cars for some lines of
freight. Traffic men state that the tonnage
of freight offered is larger than year ago.
This may be in some measure due to the
bad weather, which has delayed shipments
later than usual. The reports from man
ufacturers are of a most encouraging ma
ture concerning the probability of more
active conditions when the weather is bet
ter and the country roads become passable.
Many manufacturers are behind in their
orders, which are coming in freely from
all directions, and the railroads are doing
their best to relieve the situation. One
drawback is that there many cars
in bad ORDER due to the strain upon equip
ment in the last few months. unfavora-
bic have been weather conditions, and
consequence most roads find themselves
unequal TO the immense amount of traffic
which is constantly accommodating for ship
ment in all directions. A local traffic Off
cial says good weather in April will cause
great Improvement in business condi-
tions. as the power is being put into good
condition and the roadbeds will become
solid and the situation generally improved.
The following table shows the number of
cars received and forwarded at Indanapo-
lis in the week ended March 26 and in cor
responding weeks of 1903 and 1902:

The Equipment Shortage.

The sweeping charges of inefficiency on
the part of railroads centering at Cleve-
land made by the Freight Commission of
that city, appointed by the Chamber of
Commerce, is a subject of general comment
in railroad circles. The point upon which
most stress was laid was that the railroads
had not kept pace with the. improvement
in the business of the country. In regard
to this, one of the leading operating men
of that territory states: THE charge made
by the commission must be admitted as
true to a considerable extent and vet l
would be a little slow 10 condemn the rail-
roads because they are not up to date in
that respect. There is more than a senti-
mental question involved. No railroad man
wants to spend $50.0O0,OO0 $40. 600 coo in
improving his property in anticipation of
coming business only to find the boom de-
layed or fallen fiat The railroad operating
official. in. that respect, has an obligation
which he owes TO the whole financial sys-
tenn of the United States. and the business
stability of the country often depends upon
the wise use of money in making needed
improvements. To be On the safe side a
majority of railroad men have adopted the
method of introducing the utmost caution
into the whole scheme of things. The result
Is that instead OF making improvements in
slack time in anticipation of a coming boom
the railroads are making improvements al
times when the biggest business is being
done or when there is an apparent and
present urgent need for betterment No
railroad can add to its equipment faster
than the equipment concerns and the rail-
road shops can produce what is required
During the period of which the Chamber of
Commerce complained we shipped no en-
gines abroad and could not get cars and
engines built fast enough for our own need.
Most of the railroads gave orders for en-
gines one or two years ago and waited all
the way from ten to fifteen months for the
delivery of the locomotives, and the car
shops were in much the same shape"

quently off of their schedule"
The Pittsburg & Lake Erie and the Penn
sylVania lines are at war over the es-
adjustment of rates for the worlds fair.
The Pennsylvania claims that the Pitts
burg * Lake Erie, in connection with the
Big Four, should be rated as a standard
line while the former says il is only a
differential line. This point prevents rates
TO the worlds fair being adopted by the
two lines. For several years the Pittsburg
x Lake Erie has been considered a dir
ferential line to St Louis, but on account
of improved service its trains can reach
St Louis nearly as quickly the Pam
handle trains.

This factor does not have very much influence
In the way Of moving prices on the general list,
but interest in the dissolution OF the Northern

such wide ramihcations that IL takes all the in
