RAILROAD NEWS
ML WAS LIGHT
ON ILL BUDS
Trains to and From Harrisburg
Carried Few Passengers
Yesterday
Officials of the Pennsylvania Rail
road, as well as those of the Reading
Railway, report a big falling off in
passenger traffic yesterday, due mostly
to the fact that New Ye.ir l);iy travel
ers heretofore have been mostly pass
holders. Few Harrisburg folks went
to Philadelphia to see the Mummers'
display, and local trains carred a very
small number of passengers.
On a morning train, yesterday, on
wnicfi there have never been less than
100 passengers leaving Harrisburg for
Eastern points, there were but twenty
seven passengers out of this citv. A
< umberland Valley train south-bound,
had Its full quota and was the onlv
train leaving the Pennsylvania Railroad
Mation, which did not show a decrease
in travel. The train, east-bound, leav
ing Harrisburg at 3:25 a. m , had but
one full car.
From the West travel was verv
light. Conductors on five trains out of
Altoona reported that they had but one
passenger until they reached Tyrone.
Another train had two women out of
Altoona and a third had but six pas
fieng-erg all told until iluntii.grdon was i
reached.

Ready for Tax.—On receipt of the
tonnage declarations by anthracite
coal uperators the Auditor General
will send the bills for the new tax.
Although no steps have been taken to
test the constitutionality of the now
tax law, it is expected that this will be
done. If the tax is declared uncon
stitutional the Philadelphia and Read
ing Coal and Iron Company will make
a refund of the extra charge it is
placing on its coal. The Reading and
all other operators added 10 cents to
the cost per ton on account of tho tax-
Here and there in the retail trade the
10 cents additional has been passed
along to the consumer, but the mer
chants have not stood together, and so
most of them are paying the tax with
out any expectation of having it re
funded than that offered by probable
litigation.
