From one way Of looking at it, the rail-
roads are refraining from buying new
cars. not because they do not desire to
make commitments in this line until they
know whether they are going to get their
freight rates increased, but because they
don't need the cars. With something
like 10000 cars idle throughout the coun-
try. a presentable argument against pur-
chases might be based on this premise.
To seriously consider a temporary condi-
ton of rolling stock as vital factor in

shortsighted view Of the transporta-

GERMAN ATTACKS DEWEY,
ACCOUNT OF Won Diedcrichs Incident
Is Criticised severely.

Berlin. Feb. 1S.-Count ReventIow, who
has close rclatiops with the imperial ad-
miralty. attacks Admiral Dewey in the
Deutsche TaEes-Zeitung in connection
with the chapter dealing with the Ger
man-American incident at Manila in Ad-
miral Dewey's book of "reminiscences.
Count Reventlow characterizes Admiral
Dewey's relation OF the recontre between
himself and Admiral Won Diederichs as
astonishing allegations" and disputes
the accuracy of the assertion that the
Americans fired a shot across the bow OF
the German frigate Cormorant as a re-
minder to the German admiral to re-
spect the blockade which the American
squadron had established.
The writer asserts the time has come
to clear Admiral Won Diederichs' name
from the aspersion of having. suffered a
diplomatic defeat at the hands of Ad-
miraI Dewey. whose assertions cannot
be allowed to pass without an authori-
