the Western Maryland and eight
on Tie MononBaheIa in West Wiz

Charleston division B. & O.. while
only eighteen are working in the
Pennsylvania district Of the Mon
ongahela railway.
A total Of $50 enlptIes are order
ed today in the region against 99S
Wednesday and 94s Tuesday,
which means that there will be a
~shrinkage in tonnage today in tho
region OF probably $50 to 200 cars
compared to days earlier in the
week. Tonnage on the Mononga'
hela is perhaps shaded the most.
THAT on the B. & o. being done
one day and arising the next in n
spasmodic fashion. However, the
fact that mines have been down
flat on the Morgantown & Wheel:
ing railway. one Of the principal
/ feeders OF the Monongahela, Is
| particularly responsible for the
decrease in the daily loading. To
day the operations along the Nor
Eantown & Wheeling railway
load So empties which while Z
more than yesterday. was 20 cars
less than Tuesday.
The Morgantown New Domin.
ion today states that the Golden
