REPORTS SHOW
REDUCTION IN
RAIL TONNAGE
Total During 1926 Lower
Than in Any Other Year
Since 1921

Total tonnage handled by North
Dakota railroads during 1926 was
lower than it has been for any other
year since 1921, according to reports
received by the state railroad board
here.
The total tonnage handled last
year was 5,320,079 as compared with
4,719,459 in 1921; 702, AGA in 1929;
6,4S3.939 in 1923: G.94l,475 in 1924,
and 6,73l ,545 in 1928.
Comparison of the 1926 reports
with those Of previous years shows
that the sharp falling off as com
pared with 1925 was due to greatly
reduced shipments Of wheat and
other agricultural products. only
livestock showing an increase.
Wheat Shipments Low
Wheat shipments during 1926
totaled 52,09S cars or 2,l3S,S45 tons.
This was 4l035 per cent Of the total
tonnage hauled. Other field products
brought the total agricultural ship
ments, exclusive OF livestock to $500
cars. carrying 3,30S,330 tons or 63.I72
per cent of the total freight bust

tons or 5.O75 per cent Of the total
Flax shipments constituted 1913 per
cent Of the total and other grains,
exclusive of corn and oats, con-
stituted 4.57 per cent Of the total.
Corn was down to .097 per cent and
oats to 1882 per cent.
Animals and animal by-products
constituted 6.9Sl per cent of the
total. This classification includes
butter and eggs. Total carloads in
this classification were 1881 and
the tonnage was 363,83l. The report
for 1925 showed only 27,SO3 carloads
containing 298,96i tons. A part of
this increase is believed by railroad
board officials to be due to the
greatly enlarged output of North
Dakota crcameries and increased
shipments of eggs and poultry.
Ignite Shows Increase
Ignite coal and other mineral
product shipments also showed an
increase in comparison with 1925.
Last year Ignite shipments reached
30,2ll carloads or 1,OS0,7l5 tons as
compared with 2S.497 carloads and
l,Ol6,800 tons in 1925.
Total shipments in the mineral
classification in 1926 were 33,l4s
carloads and l,229,252 tons as COM
pared with 29,698 carloads and 1,07l,
500 tons the preceding year.
Manufactured products and mis-
cellaneous shipments in scarload lots
also showed an increase in 1926 as
compared with 1925.
Last year the total was 5,728 car
loads and Ill ,353 tons as compared
with 5,6os carloads and 103,593 tons
in 1925.

Protests against the confirmation OF
Judge Hayes Of the newly created mid
die district of North Carolina have
been filed with Senator Overman,
Democrat, North Carolina, who will

Senator Overman has been asked by

hear protests against Hayes. who was
given a recess appointment last Spring
and whose nomination was sent to the
Senate by President Coolidge this
week.

false representations to the Republican
