the latest information on the car sit
uation:
IAN estimated surplus OF from
10000 to 100000 open top cars
throughout the country is reported
by the federal trade information SER
vice in an article containing the
statement that the railroad admins
tration has been making efforts TO
have the companies take over the
new cars purchased during the war
at prices around $4,000 each. The
companies officers, the service says.
do not feel that the plan is wise
at present. The surplus IL box cars
Is placed by the service at an estim-
ated total of $4,000.
The railroad administration in
herited a shortage hich had be-
gun in the fall of 1918 and con-
tinued down through 1917.
CAR SHORTAGE vANIsHEs
ION January /, 1918. there was a
net shortage OF 10000 and on March
1, 1918, net shortage OF $4,000
but on May this had been changed
to surplus of $4,000. There was
comfortable surplus for the rest
Of 1918, which jumped from $1,000
on November 1 to $4,000 on Decem-
Der /. after the signing Of the armls-
tice and which increased rapidly un-
til March this year"
You will note from this that even
under the stringent conditions of
war, the railroad organizations thru
the pooling of cars. had been so
speeded up that there was comfort
able surplus Of cars from May 1,
1913. up until the srmistice was
signed and since that time this sur
plus of cars has been gradually grow
ling.
Therefore II IN reasonable to sup
pose that with 100000 more coal
miners in the United States than we
had in prewar times. with an over
production Of loo.ooo.oo0 to 1ao.-
100000 tons in 1918 in excess Of
prewar times and WITH the wonder
fully improved railroad facilities in
this western country, together with
the pooling Of cars and with the coal
operators petitioning congress for re-
lief in the way Of high tariffs. and
with the government itself trying to
build up an export trade for eastern
Goals and with the zone regulations
lifted from middle western districts
curtailing the market of the Wyom-
ing district in the Nebraska terri
tory, 1t is absolutely certain that the
overproduction of coal in the inter
mountain territory will amount to
such vast volumes of coal as to pre-
clude any possibility of a shortage.
Steel is the barometer industry in
the United States. The Literary Di-
gest of May "a, calls attention to the
fact that the United States steel
shows a steady drop in untitled or
ders; that the untitled orders have
now reached the lowest point since
September, 1915; that there are idle
in the United States at present from
100000 to 100000 freight cars. The
Digest further confirms my statement
that lack of traffic on the roailroads
Is decreasing the annual net profits
of steam railroad operation in the
United States by $3.50, OOO. 900.

Bayard hung up the receiver, pushed
the telephone away as a bitter cup
and laughed sheepishly.
"Great convenience, the telephone

money than I ever hoped to have. For

CHAPTER XIV.

Underneath the machine lay the;
relics Of Wetherell, who would suffer
no more here. Close by was Daphne
Kip, whom a brief Inconsistencies
gave a short furlough from torture.
She was not alive enough to be afraid
Of the long, lean flames about the
gasoline tank, though they kept
springing at her like wolfhopnds held
in a weakening leash. They had not
yet quite reached her. but they missed
her less and less.

Wetherell felt that she had turned
against him and he reached for the
last of the wine to fling it down his
throat. Leila grimly took it from his
fingers and emptied it in the ice
bucket.
"Chauffeurs and champagne are q
bad combination" she laughed. but
there was a On her lips.
"Oh. very well!" Wetherell sneered
In turn. He paid for the dinner and
tipped the waiter with the lavishness
OF a bankrupt. He tipped lavishly the
man who guarded his car, and swung
out into the road with an instant
speed that would have been prettier
if there had been less danger. M
Daphne and Leila were good sports,
but they were not merry. Wetherell
furnished all the merriment, and his
was from wine and despair. It was
the wine that brought out the truth.
He had to tell Daphne what he had
told Leila, Of his misfortune with his
bally old government.
He asked Daphne to explain to Bay
ard how sorry he was that he was in
volved in the crash.
"Your broth Bayard's awr1y nice
fell, Miss Skip. He's got incest lil'
wife in worl'. Perf'ly good liz girl.
Straight as a string-straight as they
make 'em. No nonsense about lip
Leil'. I just love her-perf'ly hon
or'ble love. I'd do anything in worl'
for Leir-or liT Miss Daffy-or OIL
broth Bay'd. Tell him at, will you,
like a GOO lfT girl? Tell Bay at,
will-ll?"
Daphne grew furious. She felt now
that she had justified her presence
here. She held Leila fast in her en-
brace and commanded Wetherell.
"Slow down at once! Do you hear?
| Slow down this cart"
Wetherell laughed: "Bless li'l' heart.
I'm goin' take you home. You're quite
shafe with me-quite. Man that's
born to be hanged never drown or get
automokilled-that's good word-au-
tomokilled-eh, what?"
They whipped round a somber jut in
the road, and his %searchlight painted
instantly in white outlines against the
black world a %wagonload of sleepy
children returning from some village
church affair. They were singing,
drowsily, "Merrilee we ro-la-long-ro-la-
long,"
Daphne and Leila seemed to die at
once.
Wetherell groaned, "Oh, my God,
the liP chil'ren!"
There was nothing for Wetherell to
do but what he die. He spun his wheel
and drove his thunderbolt into an
open concrete culvert. There was a
furious racket. The car turned a
somersault and cr1mpled in a shud-
dering mass.
Wetherell, pinioned under the wheel,
was knocked this way and that and
his beautiful head cracked on the con-
crete like a china dolls.
Leila was snatched from the car as
if invisible hands had caught her ex-
Quisite body for a lash to fog q tele-

Order and Came Wheeling Out Like

Model.
with tile brisk manner of a triumphant
capitalist. But that was bluff for out
ward effect. He was actually dizzy
with loss of bearings and control.
Bayard had carried heavier burdens
than Clay, and under the sting of
Leila's whip had taken greater risks
for higher prizes. The crash in the
street had found him so extended that
he could not recover without addition
al help. That very morning one of
his brokers had called on him for a re-
newal of margins. He had to have
five thousand dollars or he would lose
fifty.
Rebuffed from every door, Bayard
had gone to Wetherell's office-a mys-
ferrous sort Of place surrounded by
guards and secret service men to
ward off the menace Of spies, real and
Imaginary.
Bayard had unusual difficulty in
passing the lines. The reason he soon
heard. A new q was in charge in
Wetherell's place, q retired British Of
f1cer whose natural and affected gruff-
s was aggravated by the unpleas-
ant nature of his tasks. He had only
n eye.
He made Bayard describe who and
what he was and what he wanted.
Only Bayard's desperation gave him
strength to ask this old Cyclops for
an advance on new contracts.
Bayard went away ina stupor. BE
had intelligence enough to feel that he
could less safely attack Wetherell
now than before. He would seem to
be implicated in the fellows malfeas-
ance. He would only advertise to his
creditors that his Wanted contracts
were worthless. Business men will en-
dure much to escape such publication
of their wrongs.
Bayard kept his head high till he
reached his own office. Then he fell
Into his chair and propped his elbows
on his desk and gripped his hot brows
In his hands as If he were holding his
skull together. 1t is the business mans
attitude of prayer. @
It was thus that Daphne found him
when she opened the door narrowly
and closed it behind her as softly as
La Tosca. She was beaming with af.
lection and Importance, ard when at
her mischiev0us "Ahem!" Bayard
looked up she was SO pretty that he
forgot himself long enough. to smile
and rush forward to embrace her.
She was wondering how to state her
errand when the telephone rang. 1t
startled Bayard strangely. He caught
1t to hts lips as a topper lifts a glass.
He pressed the receiver to his a and
evidently recognized the voice that
said "Hello" from somewhere.
, He answered In monosyuables OF
the least importance, but Daphne
heard gloom in them.
