Advantage of Holiday and

Washington, Feb, 2.--Railways to-
day received instructions from the
railroad administration 10 take every
shutdown and forced suspension
Monday under the fuel economy or
der to move coal to the big consum-
ing Centers in order to accumulate
small reserves against possible emcr-
gencies. If the railroad situation then
improves the Monday closing order
probably will be revoked,
Railroad administration officials
had under consideration the mposi-
ton of other embargocs than those
now in effect officially on three east
ern trunk lines, as substitute meas
ures for the fuel company order.
Some further restrictions on accept
ance of general freight may be made,
it was intimated although the princi-
pal determining factor will be the
weather in the next few days.
Weather still Severe.
Little hope was gathered from to-
days weather. In northern New York
York state it was so cold that engines
stopping to take water froze to the
tracks and ii took other locomotives
to pull them loose. In West Virginia
the overflowing of streams hampered
the hauling of empty cars to coal
mines and the withdrawal of loads.
The delivery of coal was reported
at about the same low average of the
last week More foodstuffs went for
ward and the movement of empty
cars to the west and south for ship
ment of corn, meat products and cot
ton was reported considerably better.
Relieve Feed Shortage.
Four special trains of fifty cars
each, filled with animal and poultry
feed were on their way to New Eng
land today from the middle west to
relieve what had been reported as a
critical shortage of these commodi-
ties.
