Figures Made Public Yesterday
Show Reasons For Many
Retrenchments
Reasons for retrenchment on the
Pennsylvania Railroad lines are given
In a statistical statement made public
in Philadelphia yesterday.
Eighty-six million dollars' worth of
freight cars and locomotives are stand
ing idle on the sidetracks, in the yards,
roundhouses and shops of the Pennsyl
vania Railroad system as a conse
quence of the depression in railroad
truffle, which in the last fortnight,
according to the figures showing the
decline in the movement of loaded
freight cars, has become more acute
than at any time since the present era
of retrogression began some months
ago.
Very nearly one-third of the freight
cars owned by the Pennsylvania lines,
east and west, are out of use. The
number of cars Idle, according to the
latest reports which were available
yesterday, is RfI.OOO. The Pennsylva
nia lines own, altogether, approxl*
THURSDAY EVENING. HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH JUNE 4, 1914.
mately 250,000 freight cars.
More than 300 locomotives are idle,
out of a total of 7,000 owned. The
percentage of idle freight cars is nat
urally greater than that or idle loco
motives because reducing the number
of cars in a train is a more common
proceeding than eliminating a train
altogether.
Assuming that invested capital
should earn at least 5 per cent., the
Pennsylvania system is losing Interest
at the rate of $4,300,000 per year on
Its Idle cars and locomotives. A freight
car is worth SI,OOO, as an average,
and a locomotive close to $20,000.
The actual daily figures for May
show that the decreases in the latter
part of the month were much heavier
than in the early part. Thus, while
the average loss In traffic for the en
tire month, as shown by the car-move
ment observations, was a little more
than 16 per cent., the losses in the last
ten days of the month averaging very
close to 20 per cent. The opening
days of June have shown no material
change. Idle cars on the Pennsylva
nia system are now at the maximum
and traffic is at the minimum volume
recorded since general business began
to slump.
Logan Valley Improvements.—Ad
ditional tracks are being laid by the
Logan Valley Railway Company at
several points along the Tyrone di
vision. A force of men is at work pre
paring for the starting of operations,
and before long the company will
have the line practically double
tracked between Altoona and Tyrone
•and will be able to maintain a much
I shorter schedule.
(ieorsla Poach Crop Itoad.v. —Hall-
road officials estimate that the Geor
gia peach crop, which is just start
ing to move to market, will All 5,000
freight cars. Plans for transporting
the crop to Northern and Eastern
markets were made last week at a
conference held at Atlanta between
officials of the Southern Railway, the
Pennsylvania Railroad, the Central of
Georgia, the Atlantic, Birmingham
and Atlantic, the Macon, the Fruit
Growers' Express and the Georgia
Fruit Exchange. When the height of
the season is reached the Southern
will send fifteen to twenty peach
trains out of Atlanta every night.

Company and several small orders
from railroads in tlie Central West.

A I'hyßlclan'i Advice
"I'd certainly give most anything to
be able to fatten up a few pounds ami
stay that way," declares every exces
sively thin man or woman. Such a re
sult is not impossible, despite past fail-'
ures. Thin people are victims of mal
nutrition, a condition which prevents
the fatty elements of food from being
taken up by the blood as they are when
the powers of nutrition are normal,
Instead of Retting into the blood, all
the fat and flesh producing elements
stay in the intestines until they pass
from the body as waste.
To correct this condition and to pro
duce a healthy, normal amount of fat
the nutritive processes must be artifi
cially supplied with the power which
nature has denied them. This can best
be accomplished by eating; a Sargol
tablet with every meal. Sargo] j s a
scientific combination of six of the best
strength-giving fat-producing ele
