Freight Business Is Reaching
an Unusually High Pitch.
Traffic Officials Have More
Than Enough Calls on Them.
SANTA FE is RUSHED.
Increased Equipment Last Year
Hardly FulfiIIs Demands.
Gossip and Matters OF Interest
in Railroad Circles.

All of the important railroad systems
in the west, and the east as well, are
beginning to complain of heavier vol
ume. of business than they can handle,
notwithstanding the heavy additions to
equipment and motive power during the
year. This situation, developing to a
stage that may become acute, is more
surprising in view of the fact that the
big movement of grain from the har-
vest fields to the markets and to the
seaboard has not really begun yet.
Thus far there have been no serious
car blockades or freight concessions .
said a prominent official of the Santa
Fe in discussing this question today,
although the demands of shippers are
so numerous and continuous that it
keeps the freight and transportation
departments rushed keeping the orders
flied. The greater number of cars and
locomotives in service this year has
proved a good thing for all railroads,
but most of them have been too con-
servative in anticipating the years re-

thing is exceeding that of former years
at this season and all indications point

though an increase of five thousand

FREIGHT WRECK ON KATY.
Traffic Delayed All Night Through
Ditching of 10 Cars.

Parsons, Kan, Sept. 21.-Traffic on
the Missouri, Kansas and Texas railway
was delayed all night by a wreck on
the main line near Hiattville, a small
station north of here. 1t was caused by
a soft track due to the recent rains.
Ten cars of the through southbound
freight train went into the ditch late
yesterday afternoon. No one was hurt
but the wreckage SO covered the tracks
that traffic on the road was delayed
until this morning. Trains on the Katy
