timated that this year there will be made
something like $4,000 cars of the four
cylinder type. with demand for the full
product Even more than this of the
smaller cars will be made--cars costing
about 81 800 One plant in Detroit is
shipping an average of AZ machines per
day.

ducfng State. In 1900 not single fac
tory was reported in that State, whereas

in the number of cars produced, the
amount OF moneg paid for them, the num-
Der of people employed and the amount

RAILROADS CLOSING UP OFFICES.
Operators Scarce in Iowa Owing to
the New 9-HOnr Law.

In preparation for the nine-hour law
the Chicago and Northwestern railroad is
closing scores of its smaller offices
throughout Iowa. Twenty offices on the
Galena division alone have been discon-
tinued within one week and many Others
will be closed this spring. The railroads
are unable to secure telegraph operators
sufficient TO man the offices now that this
class of men can only work nine hours.
The operators are being moved to the
larger Offices, where it is necessary to
have three men instead of two as for
merly. In this way expenses are kept
down, the law is adhered to and the
larger Offices handle the work formerly
distributed among the many smaller ones.

asked the foreign Office in London to re-

to station three British warships in Cuba

would preserve order and protect property
