BIG DECREASE IN IDLE CARS
Improvement in Business and Threat
ened Coal Strike Responsible.

The Improvement In business on the rail
roads this year. as compared with "A year
ago, Is striklngly illustrated In the fort
nightly bulletin OF the American Railway
Association, issued yesterday. giving tho
number OF idle cars In this country and
Canada. The report shows that the net
surplus of idle cars on March 10 stood at
3,043. as compared with 1872 two weeks ago
and 2O7527 year ago. The total number OF
idle cars on the railroads Of the United
States and Canada, or the gross surplus
was i6,O2s on March IL, but the shortage
amounted to 1855 leaving the net surplus
az already stated.
The threatened strike of the coal miners
is largely responsible for the decrease in
idle equipment i'm the last fortnight. as the
demand for coal has been so great that
practically every available coal car has
been called back into service. This does
rot account. however, for the great de-
crease la idle ears this year as compared
with year ago. which Is attributed TO
general Improvement in business through
out the country.

the owner. who said he was going along
the East Drive at fair rate Of speed when
the wheels struck an oily spot In the road

women to hold on tight. When the car
struck the railing Miss Marshall was
thrown out. and fell in the roadway about
twenty feet from the car. Miss Brender
was not thrown out, but was injured by
glass from the DTOken Wluu sHlelu, WHICH
was up and was crushed when the car
struck the rail. Rich stuck TO the steering
wheel and was not thrown out, and escaped

fering from wound on her forehead, and
Miss Brender- was in the rear seat Of the
