a DECREASE IN IDLE CARS.
Reduction in Surplus Equipment Due
to Cold Weather.

Chicago, Jan. 31.=An unusual de-
crease in the number of idle cars
throughout the country is shown in a
bulletin issued by the American Rail-
way association. The. reduction in
surplus equipment is attributed to the
recent severely cold weather. The
total car surplus for the towo weeks
period ending January II was 1922,
479 cars, as compared with an aggre-
gate of 1896 cars January 8. The
coal car surplus reported January 8
was 64,719 cars, while the table for
January II discloses a total of 42,770
cars. This decrease of 21,949 in the
number of idle cars represents about
IS per cent of the total decrease for
the period of two weeks ended January
IT, There also were decreases report
ed in box and miscellaneous cars, the
surplus of the former being cut by
1904 cars. There was an increase
Of 274 in the number of idle fiat cars.
The bulletin further shows that the
car shortage in various parts of the
country increased nearly 100 per cent
within the two weeks mentioned.

NO FIGHT COMMENT HEARD.
CurIey Finds People Slow to Believe
in Flynn.

San Francisco, Jan. Slack Cur
ley, manager of Jim Flynn, will be in
San Francisco the latter part of the
week. Curley intimates in a wire to
Promoter Coffroth that the visit will
be in regard to the Johnson Flynn
match which Curley at first thought
could be staged in Nevada. AT pres
ent there is a good reason for believ-
ing that Flynn's manager is in doubt
as to which state will furnish a batt'
ground for the worlds champion and
his challenger.
For fear anyone should think Cur
ley's hopes of putting the negro and
the white man in the ring are fading
away, Curley sends word that he's
going through" with the venture. So
few days will pass before Curley is
here in the flesh to give his reasons
for upholding the Johnson-F'lynn event
as a legitimate sporting happening
that it would be well to wait and
hear what he has to say. There VIII
be lots of time to pull his arguments
to pieces later, if they are weak and
noncOnVincing.
This much may be said. however.
If Curley has it in him to sweeten the
Johnson-F Flynn proposition in the eyes
of San Francisco patrons of the glove
game. he should be hailed as the sill
yer tongued orator of the sporting
belt.
1t is said that the public very fire.
quently dislikes a match when it is
first mooted and warns up to it in
good shape later. So far, however,
there is no sign of a change of senti-
nent towards Johnson and Flynn. The
affair was regarded as joke when
it was first suggested and a joke it is
still considered.
At that there is something to be
said in Flynn's favor. His matches
with white Hope" Morris in New
York and Big Williams in Toronto,
proved conclusively that the fireman
has made great strides in his profess
sion.

the country's record breaking grain
crops and live stock product.
There has been a general heavy snow
fall throughout the middle west and
the Rocky Mountain section, with no
great billiards. Winter wheat was in
early and has terminated exceptionally
well under the snow. This winter
wheat, which covers the greatest area
ever planted, promises, under the past
weather conditions, to be the earliest
and most profitable ever harvested
For this reason the railroads have
ordered an early concentration of grain
carrying cars in the grain belt. Special
cars are being rushed by the car fac
tories for transportation of agricultur-
al machinery and equipment to the
west, southwest and northwest and
Canada.
Prepared to Handle Big Crops.
Unusual preparations are being made
to handle The Canadian wheat crop,
which. 1t is expected will far exceed
anything ever heard of in that new
and booming territory Engagements
have been made already for many train
loads of reapers, harvesters, plows and
other machinery, and these must be
delivered as soon as the ground Is
ready to work.
Because of the great number of east
ern men who have gone into fruit
growing and other agricultural pur-
suits n the middle and lar west, in
the last few years, and because OF the
favorable weather conditions which
have prevailed, special facilities are
being made by the railroads to trans
port their product to the market cen
ters It is expected that the apple crop
will be earlier and heavier than ever
before.
The railroads have gone farther this
year than ever before in sounding COM
mercial houses on what may be ex-
pected. The Hartman lines report,
after canvess of their general agents,
that more travelling statesmen are on
the road now, selling spring and sum
mer goods, in the seasonal lines than
ever before and that the staple lines
such as hardware and other nonseason-
al commodities, have every available
salesman out and advance reports in

GREEN FILES SUIT.
Former Western League Magnate Asks
$1OO,1eO Damages.

Lincoln, Neb.. Jan. 31.-A damage
suit for $100,190 was filed against the
National board of arbitration, the
National Association of Professional
Baseball clubs and the individual
members of the arbitration board, in
Guiding Secretary j. P. Farrell, by
Guy w Green, former owner of the
Lincoln baseball club. The suit is filed
in federal court and service has been
had on President O'Neill of the West
ern league, who is in this city untang-
ling the affairs of the local club.
Mr.. Green sets up four counts in his
suit He alleges that in 1910 he was
engaged in independent baseball He
alleges that Secretary Farrell wired
the secretary of the Seward, Neb-,
baseball club to cancel game sched-
uled there and that he was forced to
return the gate money taken in, los
ing $50 While playing at Auburn,
Neb. at later date, he alleges that
Farrell wired the Mink league club
less Green paid 500. This was paid,
saws Green, under coercion"
Shortly after this fine had been paid,
alleges the plaintiff the "Omcial Bulle-
tin" the official publication of the Ma
Sional association. contained an article
stating that Green had been fined 500
for violation of the rules of baseball
and added that it was hoped this would
have a good effect on other independ-
ent owners. This article is alleged to
have damaged the plaintiffs business
and his good name to the extent Of
$4,000. In the fourth count it is al
legged that the result of the publication
was to make it impossible to secure
games for his club the following year
so that he was forced to sell the club
for $500. He alleges that he had been
making a profit of $1,000 year from
the club and asks an additional $5O,-
600.

ball club in the seasons of 1908 and
part of 1909, selling to the present
owner, Donald Despair, and partner,

MOTOR CAR NOT A SUCCESS.
Cold Weather Too Much for Grand

ST. Joseph, Mo, Jan. 31.-Gasoline
motor car service on the st. Joseph &
Grand Island railway between Han
over and Hiawatha, Kan, and st.
Joseph, has been abandoned and
steam trains have been substituted
Although the patronage has been
large, the motor cars have been oper-
ated at a loss during the past year c
9 cents a passenger mile, according to
the railroad reports. One reason for
this loss, it is said. is the low COM
muter rates for nearby points, the
bridge arbitrary of 25 cents having
been removed in these cases, and
where ten tickets to Wathena from ST
Joseph formerly cost 81 cents, the
price was reduced to Il cents

CHILD NEARLY
DROWNS|nTUB

Anna Leyinsky, of 639 Charles
street, had a narrow escape from
drowning about II o'clock this
morning when she tumbled into a
tub of water which had been placed
on the floor, When the infant fell
into the water the mother became
excited and instead of grabbing the
child from the tub, ran around the
place crying for help. Her cries
were not answered at first and the
babe rolled about the water At
tracted by her screams several of
the neighbors responded and were
directed to the scene by the almost
frantic mother.
When taken from the tub the girl
was blue and at first the people
thought the girl was dead DR.. NJ.
Is. Meinzer was called and after half
an hours work revived the infant.
The water was dirty which made it
worse for the girl.
