BIG GRAIN SHIP
MENTS Being MADE
This Division of the Illinois Central
Railroad Moves 862 Cars
in 16 Days.

Railroad men are relieved by the
fact that the back bone of the corn
movement for December delivery il
broken. In the first sixteen days OF
this month the Illinois Central NOV
ed S62 cars of grain on this division
gain of 372 cars over the same per-
iod last year. This vast quantity OF
grain was moved without causing
any shortage of cars. Some COM
plants were received but the trouble
was remedied before "a hours had
interviewed.
One angle of the situation, which
has been the life saver to the men
in the traffic department, is the fact
that the markets in Omaha have
been so high this year that much of
the grain has been consigned to that
city, giving the Missouri market a
plentiful supply of cars as emptied.
