RAILWAYS ORDERING EQUIPMENT.

one of the most noteworthy indications OF the
Improvement is taking place in the country's
industries is the remarkable increase that is now
being reported by the railway equipment companies
I'm their orders for new cars and locomotives In
the last twelve months unlI October the railroads
were light buyers of new equipment, owing to the
uncertainty which prevailed at times over the fut-
ure of business. but now railway managers are
convinced that conditions warrant the expenditure
of large amounts Of money cars and locomotives
and as a consequence the equipment companies
have been compelled to place all their plants in
operation and to increase their working forces to
the numbers that were employed in the prosperous
times Of two years ago. The American Car and
Foundry Company received in October orders for
more than 1900 new cars. comparing with orders
for about 1900 in September. 5000 in Au-
gust and nearly 1900 in July October was
one OF tha biggest months in the companys history
According to interests identified with the company
and with other equipment companies, the railroads
are now figuring larger contracts for rolling
stock than at any time record 1t is interesting
to note the fact that the American Car and Foun-

"It is reported that a Japanese force,

"From reports received from the

the Japanese army is concentrated in
three groups, the two southern groups
being on the lower section of the river
Tayang at Hondouhanya, on the left
