An order was issued by the general
office Of the Baltimore and Ohio Rail
road Company Tuesday evening placing
an embargo upon all freight shipment
of every kind except iron, coal, fux
stone and one or two other commodities,
the embargo becoming effective last
night at midnight. By thus curtailing
freight it Is hoped by the railroad Of
ticials to relieve the fuel and iron short
age which has been serious for many
weeks.
The Republican directs attention to
the condensed statement of the condi-
ton of the Garrett National Bank of
Oakland which appears on page one of
this issue. The bank shows resources
of almost a million dollars. Its deposits
amounts to more than $3.50, 600 and at a
recent meeting of the directors devil
dend of eight per cent. for the past six
months was declared The dividend
amounts to $4,000, which has been dis
tributed among the stockholders.
The Republican is issued today IN
abbreviated form, the reasons for which
are numerous and complex, mainly ow-
ing to the shortage of news print paper
and the fact that freight embargo
and freight congestion has made it
almost impossible to get supplies. At
the present time The Republican has
shipments of paper stock on the way
from Baltimore, Hagerstown and Pitts
burgh, all having been forwarded many
days ago. Next week, however, we
trust that conditions will be improved
and the The Republican will appear in
its usual form.
