 The Manufacturers Record ssys 1t has South Atlantic and Eastern Gulf States ia about 50.o00 cars. and instead of im- proving. the prospect seems to be get ting worse Everywhere the same story is heard, everywhere there is Q short. age of cars and locomotives. and per- sons who could do business to profit find themselves unable to make shtpments. Lumber dealers at various points say that they cannot get cars because the railroads are occupied with the cotton crop or with moving coal that has to so to market In other sections the cot ton growers lament the shortage and elsewhere the coal operators are in gloom because they cannot get taeiitt- ies to move the output of their mines to meet pressing demands. At some points mills have been obliged to shut down because of inability to set coal. At terminal points in various cities the yards are reported to be eonkosted wa loaded cars from 3e 1-2 per cent to 1$ i-2 per cent. Out of Texas comes the cry that unless ears can soen- De had the lumber mills will have to shut down and from practically every point Tn the country, but particularly the South. iH heard the persistent demand for more and more ears to handle business.
 Railroad managements. on the other hand complain of delay m the delivery of new cars ordered. In some eases the railroads have ceased soliciting freight business, but have their agents employed hunting cars that may have gotten away to other lines which are ioathe to give them up. as they also arc short of equipment All the car factor les are crowded and cannot nll their orders.
