HARD TO GET SEA FOOD TO CITY Railways Experience Diffi culty in Making Ship ments From Coast Conservation of the meat supply by eating fish, is proving a rather difficult task for Harrlsburgers. Pish are plentiful but getting it to the consumers is another thing. Rail roads all over the country are up against congestions, due to the heavy government business. Railroads will not handle but car load shipments. This is driving manufacturers to shipments by ex press. Just now the express busi ness is so heavy that prompt hand ling of fish shipments is out of the question. Sea food that should reach Harrisburg within 24 hours after it Is caught, is from two to five days betynd time getting here. Dealers refuse to accept fish ship ments that are delayed. Local dalers last week did not get one-half of their usual ship ments. The supply for to-day was also late In reaching this city. One shipment from Erie last week was L flve days getting to Harrlsburg. A general belief prevails amo'ng local dealers that unless there Is some re lief, express companies will be obliged to place an embargo on perishable shipments. Officials of the express companies say they are doing everything pos sible to prevent congestions. Help Is scarce and delays In handling the shipments follow. When the express company Is unable to deliver per ishable goods on time. It Is a loss to the company. First attention is always given to perishable goods, but It frequently happens that de lays occur on other divisions, and unless there Is some relief. It 1B %uld there Is likely to be a scarcity of sea food In Harrlsburg. SEPTEMBER 1, 1917.
