EIUIF FhENI BEINE INCREASED.
These figures show the cause OF delay in the
national traffic movement which threatens 10
bring Industry to standstill. Within the last
ten years the volume of railroad business in
this country has increased over 10 per cent.
Meanwhile the railroads have endeavored to
meet 1t. Equipment is being increased as rapid
ly as capital and labor can do It, There are
and will be cars enough to carry the country's
traffic If the cars be moved. but engines
may run.
A striking tale is told by the statistics OF
railroad building in the United States. Not only
is It true, as stated above that there has been
In the ten years ended 1906 an increase OF only
II per cent in mileage, but the most impressive
fact is that railroad building has within gen.

trackage has increased. At this moment, when
that demand is greatest and the whole country
