RAILROADS HAVE
TIE-UP TROUBLES
Combination of Conditions
Break Up Schedules; Heaviest
Christmas Traffic in Years
Scarcity of cars, cold weather, yard
congestions, and the heaviest Christ- j
mas rush of mail and express traffic, I
is a combination that has tied up
every railroad in the United Btates.
No regular schedules are expeoted
until after Tuesday. On the Penney
and Reading: lines, freight and pas
senger forces wilt be kept busy until
conditions improve.
The greatest trouble Is due to the
scarcity or cars. This Inconvenience,
it Is said, will be shortly overcome,
providing the orders from the Inter
state Commerce Commissioners are
carried out.
Return Supply Cars
An order was Issued requiring the
railroads to show cause at a hearing
here December 28 why they should
not return at once to their owners,
without diversion or misuse, all for
eign coal and refrigerator care Im
mediately after unloading at their
destlnation. ,
The commission's order follows an
announcement by the American Rail
way Association's car service commis
sion that eight of the large railroads,
seven of them in the East, had failed
to comply with its instructions to de
liver a designated excess of box cars
to southern and western conectlons
above the number of such cars re
ceived.
RAILROAD NOTES
The Federal Court of St. Louis has
ordered the sale of the Missouri Pa
cific and St. Louis, Iron Mou tain and
Southern railroads.
Officials of the Delaware, Lacka
wanna and Western Railroad Com
pany will not observe the Adamson
law until the United States Court has
handed down a decision.
The Philadelphia and Reading Rail
way Company has received two more
new engines from the Baldwin com
pany. This makes ten of the thirty
ordered that are now in service.'
