tinues, and a possible slight drop in
butter.

ALL TRAINS LATE
Cold Weather Plays Havoc
With Railroad Schedules.
Thru Trains From One to Five
Hours Behind Time.

Only local trains approximated their
schedules thru Kansas this morning
and Tuesday night. Thru trains, with
runs of more than hundred or so
miles, were all the way from one TO
five hours late, on account of the Sc
we're cold which kept the firemen
shoveling the slim supplies of coal
into their fireboxes at back-breaking
speed in order to keep up the steam
necessary to operate at all, over the
slippery tracks.
At every station, trainmen dis
mounted to thaw out airbrakes with
red flares, and baggagemen and mail
clerks wrestled with tons and tons of
extra Christmas mail and express.
while shivering passengers who had
spent hours in the waiting rooms of

Between every station, the trains
steadily lost more and more time,
while dispatchers went temporarily

limit which is imposed by the rules,
beyond which they are not permitted
to work, even if they have to tie up

tic inquiries as to the whereabouts of
numerous trains, crossed each other
on the wires. and order after order was
countermanded or changed, as one
train or another was reported.
Worried dispatchers cussed badger
