CARS LOADED To ROOFS
ON STORAGE TRACKS
Statement That Only One Railroad
Is Clear Between Chicago
and New York.

CHICAGO, March 4.-Only one. of the
through railroads between Chicago and
New York has its tracks clear, ac-
cording to A story in the Chicago
Tribune. The paper says that there
are 100000 cars, loaded to the roofs,
backed up on storage tracks between
the two cities.
Goods which left Chicago in De-
cember have not gotten within 800
miles of New York"
Uttered With Delayed Freight"
THE docks. piers. private ware
houses. public storehouses and finally
the bare ground are Uttered with de-
layed freight. The value of the freight
lying on the ground alone will total
millions of dollars
The story is credited to a traffic ex-
pert sent out to investigate the car
shortage situation for a big Chicago
corporation. The expert is quoted as
saying: THE congestion is causing
great losses to manufacturers. A large
part of the goods were sold f. O. b. New
York, but the railroads are not deliver
ing within the time limit, and the home
interests are being assessed the demur-
rage, besides having to stand the de-
low

Merry Little Breezes Tell the
Truth.

Peter Rabbit didn't believe that the
Merry Little Breezes had told the truth
when they said that they had found
flowers in bloom. Not that he thought
that they had deliberately told an un-
truth. No. indeed He didn't think
that. He thought that they were either
just trying to tease him or that 'nes
had been mistaken. But he couidn
get rid of the thought that perhaps
they had seen something that he hadn t
seen. and nothing upsets Peter more
than the thought that others know
more than he does about what is going
on in the Green Forest and on tne
Green Meadows The Merry Little
Breezes had told Peter to use his eyes
lust as if Peter isn't forever using ms
eyes, You know how curious he is
IF there are any signs of spring
which they have seen Id like to know
where they are. muttered Peter. as ne
hoped all through the dear old RrIer
Patch looking sharply at all the bushes
and little trees and brambles to see II
any of the sleeping buds of leaves
showed any signs of waking. But they
there were no signs of spring in the
Old Rrier Patch. And there certainly
We're none on the Green Meadows. for
these were still covered with snow.
Then Peter made up his mind to visit
the Green Forest, just to make sure
that he had missed nothing there
They were just fooling or dreaming or
simply crazy. he muttered. as he
scampered about through the Green
Forest. Nowhere could he find the
least sign of the coming of Mistress
Spring. There was snow everywhere.
Suddenly an idea popped into his head.
IF they really saw any flowers it must
be that they saw them through the
window of Farmer Browns house. I've
seen them there myself" thought he.
why didn'tsI think of that before?
But flowers up there are NO sign of
spring"
A few minutes later Peter came to
that part of the Green Forest where
LiChtfoot the Deer had spent the win
ter. 1t was quite sheltered there-one
of the warmeSt places in all the Green
Forest. In places il was swampy. You
know Swampy place is where the
ground is always very wet. In places

 NEW YORK, Nov. 25.-Army skill triumphed over Navy pluck when the football teams from West Point anu Annapolis clashed in their annual bat tie at the Polo Grounds today The score was r. to :.
 Some 50,000 citizens, not counting lhe governor of New York. cabinet officers, generals. admirals and an ar- ray O. Esser lights in both branches If the government service saw the combat. Only for the absence O.. President Wilson, the game would have provided all the spectacular n- cidents which go to make Army Navy football battles historic.
 Winter winds swept through the great stands packed with cheering partisans of the soldiers and sailors. The gay. gowns of the feminine TOO - CTS were hidden under furs and heavy coats. But there was nc lack of vivid color Seas of chysanthemums swayed as tleir wearers cnecred and shouted and the pennants of both schools were waved proudly

 BREAKS UP TUCSON'S PLAYS

Phoenix High. playing one of its best games of the year. had no trouble in walking through, over and around the Tucson High team at the state fair grounds yesterday afternoon, thereby retaining It's laurels as state interschol- astic football champions. When the final whistle blew, the score showed Phoenix enjoying grand total of IS, while Tucson's scoring efforts were re- warded with a goose egg. and it was not the famous golden goose egg, either.
 There was no question, the battle wst a real championship contest and Gov or-elect Thomas campbell demon strsted that he Is going to be a real leader and take an active interest in everything that has to do with the state of Arizona by attending the game. He was a real rooter. too. first pull ing" for Phoenix and then Tucson. He applauded frequently. In fact whenever a good play demanded.
 Weather conditions were not exactly to the liking of the players. being a little too warm. The field was exceed ingly dry and dusty. with result that the players of both teams suffered con- siderable inconvenience.
 Phoenix showed a powerful driving OlAcNSc anu u OtlttloC that was pregnable. The linemen showed won derful ability in diagnosing plays started by the visitors. were fast and aggressive and several times broke through and nailed their men behind the line of scrimmage.
 Credit is due the Tucson eleven. how ever. for Its splendid fight in face of overwhelming odds. The Phoenix players outweighed their opponents, but during the first half the teams battled on comparatively even terms, a field goal from the educated toe of Westfall early in the first quarter being the only advantage held by the Coyotes.
 Duncan led the team in the cham pionship battle in the absence of Luke. who had failed to show the proper team spirit the last week. Pinney was also an absentee, owing to his inability to play the game for the teams sake rather than for his own.
 The team showed greater offensive strength than at any other time this season. Irvine, playing his first game st quarterback, acquitted himself in an excellent manner. although he was wont to tumble. He used good judg- ment In calling the plays and handled punts in clean shape.
