Pennsy Cuts Cars From
Many Passenger Trains
to Aid Munitions Employees

Philadelphia, Feb. S.--The rapid
growth of war industries in the sec
ton between Philadelphia and Bal
timore has proved a serious drain
on the supply of passenger cars or
the Pennsylvania railroad. Special
trains operated to and from such in
dustries in six localities require the
use of 215 cars daily, as follows:
Between Philadelphia and Hog Is
land, sixty cars; between Baltimore
and Sparrows Point, seventy cars;
between Baltimore and Aberdeen,
tortytive cars; between Philadelphia
and Eddystone, twenty-five cars; be
tween West Chester and Eddystone.
eight cars; between Bristol and Ed
dystone, ten cars.
In addition, ten cars daily will be
operated in the near future for spe-
cial industrial service between Phil
adelphia and Bristol and five between
Trenton and Bristol for the employees
of the shipbuilding plant at the last
named point
In order to provide sufficient cars
for the use of employees going to and
from these essential war industries
the Pennsylvania railroad has been
obliged to draw upon the number or
dinarily in use in its suburban lines.
Special passenger train service for
war industries is also being operated
at Erie and Huntingdon.

EASY To DARKEN
YOUR GRAY HAIR
You can Bring Back Color and
Lustre with Sage Tea
and Sulphur.

When you darken your hair with
Sage Tea and Sulphur, no one can
tell, because it's done so naturally,
50 evenly. Preparing this mixture.
though, at home is mussy and
troublesome. At little cost you can
buy at any drug store the ready-to
use preparation, improved by the
addition of other ingredients, called
''Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound" You just dampen a sponge
or soft brush with it and draw this
through you hair, taking one small
strand at a time. BY morning all
gray hair disappears, and, after an
other application or two, your hair
becomes beautifully darkened, glossy
ard lUXuriant.
Gray, faded hair. though no dis
grace, is a sign of old age, and as
we all desire youthful and attrac-
tive appearance, get busy at once
with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound and look years younger.
This ready-to-use preparation is a
delightful toilet requisite and not a
medicine. 1t is not intended for the
cure, mitigation or prevention of
disease.

Reading Moving Coal Trains
From Mine Districts;
Pennsy Improves

Reading, Pa, Feb. S.-Slightly
more than 1000 cars of anthracite
were moved from st. Clair, Cresson
and Tamaqua last night. This was
the largest amount brought down
the main line for many days. Be-
cause of the milder weather the To-
comotives were able to haul nearly
full tonnage, and there was no trou-
BILE whatever in getting over the
road. Much of this fuel was destined
for Philadelphia and points where
the situation has become acute.
Conditions in the Schuylkin coal
regions are very much improved and
the breakers are supplied with empty
cars promptly. 1t is expected that
the output to-day will reach almost
normal, or 1,40O cars.

Reading Has New Branch
Built to Hog Island Plant

The Reading Railway Company is
now operating a double-trac line
between Forty ninth street, Phil
adelphia, tapping the big shipping
plant at Hog Island, and the West
'inghouse plant. This, it is believed,
will solve the transportation prob
lem to those points. Freight will be
moved over this line at night.

structing q new line which starts at

Neither the Rockville nor River
side trolley lines were open to-day,
and it is doubtful if they will be
opened before late tomorrow or the
next day. The drifted snow is from
three to four feet deep on the entire
length of the tracks, Felix NJ. Davis,
traffic superintendent of the Harris
burg Railways Company, said this
morning. Mr.. Davis is personally SUI
perintending the laborers, and said
tins morning that the snow is so
tightly packed that his men are
using picks. The snow has to be
shoveled every step of the way, as
it is too hard to be swept or plowed

considerably north of Division street.

lumber yard, and fair progress is be-
ing made by the sixty men at work

are working on the Riverside line.
Traffic in the city is fair to-day. In
spite of a two days thaw, conditions
remain somewhat demoralized. The
tendency of drivers to block the
tracks with their teams is given as
reason for impeding street car
traffic. Deep water held between the
tracks by the snow on either side,
put number of cell boxes out Of
commission. Thirty-five care were
put out of commission Yesterday, ana
about dozen this morning by the
deep water in the streets.

Lift Freight Embargoes
on Pennsylvania Lines

Beginning at midnight last night
all embargoes on freight of every
description in less than carload lots
was lifted on the lines of the Penn
sylvania railroad east of Pittsburgh.
This improves conditions for local
shippers.
The mild weather of the last two
days has brought about a general
loosening up of traffic. Although the
situation so far as it affects carload
freight is still serious, a few more
days, 1t was said, would show a yost
improvement.

Company, show that there is a gem
eral loosening up OF traffic conditions
all over the system. The Western
Maryland, Cumberland Valley and
Pennsylvania Railroads report SIM
liar conditions.
While the outlook on the surface
is apparently encouraging, the rail-
roads are now confronted with a
shortage of motive power due to so
many freezeups during the early part
of the week, all of which were of a
more or less serious character. These
locomotives are gradually being put
into shape and it is expected that

LESS EARNINGS
Estimate For Year Near Fig.
ureS Government Must
Pay For Control

Washington, d. c., Feb. S.-Rail-
road earnings during the year 1917
showed a general decline, the big
drops in revenues occurring during
the last three months of the year.
The total earnings were $95S,OOO,-
OOO This is near the amount esti-
mated that will have to be paid to
the railroads by the United States rs
compensation under national control.
The sum the government will have
to pay the roads under the bill pend
ing in Congress is estimated at $945.-
100000 by Chairman Smith, Of the
Senate committee, having the rail
road bill in charge.
Figures for 1917 show that if rail-
way income continues to decline as
1t has in recent months, the govern
ment will face a deficit in making
its compensation payments, aug
mented by increases in wages ana
the constantly rising cost of ma
terials and supplies
Big December Drop
In December, the last month under
private operation, rail earnings de-
clined sharply, according to early
reports from railroads now being re-
cetved by the Interstate Commerce
commission The average reduction
OF income was. estimated at thirty
per cent, caused by the ever mount
ing cost of operations, doubly in
creased by the bitter winter weather
OF December, together with a srd-
den drop in revenues resulting from
traffic congestion and embargoas
Compared with the estimated in
come of $95S, 100000 last wear the
figures for 1916 was $1,O875S3. .O00.
for 1915, $716,476 600; for 1914
