TRANS-SIBERIAN ROAD
IS HARD TO HANDLE

OMSK Via Vladivostok), Dec. A.
John F. Stevens, of Chicago, admins
traitor of the Trans Siberian railway,
has experienced difficulty in his efforts
with the aid Of an interallied commit
tee to convert the Trans Siberian rail-
road into an efficient railway system.
Seven months have now elapsed since
he became its administrator.
One Of the most serious obstacles he
encountered was the unsurmountable
objection to modern methods Of rail-
reading on the part of Russians in
places Of authority. The system of car
distribution has proved a stumbling
block which precluded any marked i'm
provement in carrying capacity, II 1t
We're possible to conceive one of Amer
icas great transcontinental systems
with local committees In each state
traversed. committees of politicians in
no manner identified with the actual
railway management, vested with au
thority to distribute freight cars as
they chose without any control by the
railway management one might find
a parallel with the actual situation in
Siberia.
To obtain a car a shipper must appl,'
to the. committee in control in his dis
trict, comply with money requirements
which have nothing at all to do with,
the hauling charges, and await his turn.
Every avenue is open to exercise OF
favoritism in the matter Of distribu-
ton. 1t is no secret that the supply Of
cars Is manipulated so as to keep the
price" up. Nothing that Mr.. Stevens
or the interalied committee has been
/ able to do has had any effect in abat-
| ing this practice. The result naturally
| has been to run up prices of every com
| modify to ridiculous figures and to
| stimulate speculation,
Another factor working against great
| er efficiency is the arbitrary rower ~
| those in control to place an embargo on
movement of any class of merchant s.
! at will
Passenger traffic is paralyzed by the
| fact that thousands Of cars are occu
| pied by Russian and foreign delega
tons Of many sorts who live in them
| months on end and whom the commit
tee has no power to evict Representa-
tives of one nation alone are said on
| good authority to occupy 500 first class
| passenger cars and 1900 officers cars
| besides upward of 900 box cars,
| Trains other than the Siberian ex.
press are few and irregular, There IL
an abundance of locomotives, and OF
box cars, according to best information
The only requisite Is to put them tc
