EFFICIENT RAILROAD MANAGE
MENT.
Moro Freight Moved with Less Cars
Than Heretofore.

Washington, Nov. 12.--Fairfax Har-
rison, chairman of the Railroads
war Board, authorizes the following:
On II Of the principal railroads of
the United States a saving of 114,1O9
cars was effected in one month this
year solely by increasing the average
loading of less than carload freight.
The reports on which these figures
are based, the latest that have been
compiled, cover the months of July
this year and July, 1916. They show
that the average loading for that
class freight during July this year
was 1927 pounds as compared with
an average of 1853 pounds durina
the same month last year.
The II railroads from which re
ports have been received were able TO
move the total volume of less than
carload freight last July in 579,1SO
cars. Had the average loading per
car been at the same rate as during
July, 1916, they would hive been com
PEELED to use '693,2S9 cars.
In addition to incl easing transpor-
tatiOn efficiency through intensive
loading, the railroads are also waeing
a vigorous campaign to reduce the
number of cars and locomotives under
repair. The July reports show that
the average number of freight loco
motives in shop Or awaiting repairs
was 4,122 against AGO in the same
month last year. n decrease of 7.6 per
cent. Freight cars under repairs in
July numbered 35,S31, which was
s'647 less than in July, 1916, a de
crease of per cent

washington, Nov. Shippers of
iumoer' ice and cement, appearing to-
day before an interstate commerce
commission examiner to protos,
against the proposed Is per cent
freight rate increase, objected both TO
advanced rates and To the methods OF
the Eastern roads in seeking them.
Witnesses testified they believed the
plan PROPOSED would cause wide dis
parity of rtaes with resultant advan-
tages to certain towns over others.
Lumbormen representing, with one
exception, Southern associations were
given the major portion of the time.
Although the rates are proposed only
, FOR Eastern roads they pointed out
that 1t affected their shipments nor. n
and east of Ohio River crossings and
as the proposed increases would be
based on combinations of rates based
on one way tariff they maintained that
IL would mean change in rate reia-

senting the Eastern roads. that should
increased rates be granted only to
Eastern roads. roads south of Ohio
would share to a small extent in the
increase because of complications
due to the plan of percentage in

Southern hardwood lumbermen tes
tined that the proposed increase
meant much more to them than the
additional cost stating that since n
previous rate advance there had been
an appreciable decrease i'm the amount
or gum lumber used i'm Northern
States. They said this was due to
the fact that birch could be obtain
ed on a much cheaper basis i'm the
Chicago district.
William j. Worner. representing
the District Ice Association and tn
Consumers Company OF Chicago
who also spoke for gravel and sand
shippers of that territory. stated tha
tho ice manufacturers could not stand
further freight rate burdens.

SERVICE FOR NEW OFFICERS.
All Who Qualify Will Bc Assigned to
Duty.

Washington, Nov. 13.-AIl men
VINO qualify in the officers training
camps will DC given commissions and
practically all of them will be as.
signed Immediately to active service,
either with troops or at service
schools. Secretary Baker announced
today that restudy of the situation
had disclosed that it would be un-
necessary to place any considerable
number OF the camp graduates on the
inactive list.
me announced intention of the de-
partmcnt to assign to active service
only small percentage of the men
who will complete their course in the
second series OF camps this month
caused food of protests from
friends and relatives. The plan had
been to commission many of the stu
dents as reserve officers and allow
them to return to civilian status until
nccdcd.
Places for many Of those commits
stoned now are to be provided b\
creating divisional organizations
among the regular regiments in the
United States. The remainder will
be- assigned either to various stat,
corps where additional officers are
needed or be attached to various ar
my units as experimentation 70,
further training.
Since it is practically certain that
"IS'"oo more National Army men
Will be called out by spring the Off
cors will be needed at that time and
officials have decided that it would
D. better to keep them actively en-
ployed.
The regular army now has been
virtually fully expanded but aside
from the overseas contingent under
Gen. Pershing no divisional organi-
zation' has been provided The regi.
ments are i'm dependent units. Nc
provision has been made in the regu.
'''i . dS yet LOT auUlnR the three lieu
tenants to each company required
under the new plan Of $50 men to
company unit. They remain at th,
old system Of a captain and two lieu.
tenants.
1t will require more than 1000 O
the second camp graduates to fiji vi
the officer personnel OF the regulai
regiments. Another 1000 will b,
needed in THE organization of di
viSional units. 1t will be necessar,
also TO provide material for corps O
army troops attached to the head
quarters units Of large tactical or
%aniZation9.
In all probability 5000 officers ar
necessary for service with the regi
ments under this plan and the need
OF the staff corps outside of th;.
provision will absorb many more sac

Seizure OF Cargo OF Wool Uncovers
Conspiracy of army Officials.

London, Oct. 31.-(COrr respondence
of The Associated Press)-Swedish
army officials We're accused of con-
spring to furnish millions of dollars
worth of wool to Germany, in the
course of an action in the Prize Court
here this week
The case concerned a shipment of
l,5OO bales of wool, consigned to the
Swedish army, but destined, accord
ing to the attorney general, for
German firm in Leipzig. The ship
ment is valued at S7OO,OOO, being only
one of several seized en- route from
the Argentine Republic.
Intercepted documents, produced in
court, showed that the wool was not
intended 20 remain in Sweden. That
the Swedish army had no intention
of using the wool was indicated, it
was asserted, by tie fact that its rep
resentatives made no appearance in
the court and put in no claim to the
cargo.
1T was stated i'm court that The Brit
ish authorities had in the past. all
lowed several shipments of wool SIM
ilarly consigned to the Swedish Army
Administration to pass, in the conf
dence that the official nature of the
consignees rendered it possible to ac-
cept their assurances.
us this a case where the wool was
consigned to the army administration
without it's knowledge" asked the
presiding judge. "or is it n case where
some unauthorizet person used the
name of the department?
The Attorney General replied. "The
court will be able to judge of the
practicability of anyone using the
name of an official department with
out some official in authority becom-
Ing aware of the fact. Tie ir1tercepf-
ed letters show that this is q part of
very bad business, deliberate
scheme to pass wool into Germany
at a moment when Germany is suffer-
ing from great scarcity of that
necessary commodity ror war par
poses"
The presiding judge, i'm giving his
verdict condemning the entire shin.
ment as a lawful prize, said: .'The in
tercepted documents show that the
wool was intended for Germany. How
IL came about that the name of a
neutral government was used by tho
