C„ Oct. 23.—Rail roads of the country report that on October 1 the excess of unfilled or ders from shippers for freight cars over and above the idle cars at dif ferent points numbered 70,380. This is the figure which has been com monly, but inaccurately, referred to as car shortage* and compares with the excess of unfilled car requisitions amounting to 77,682 on July 1, 33,- 776 August 1 and 3 4,605 Septem ber 1, The-actual number of unfilled car orders on October 1 was almost iden tical with the number on October 1 : last year, the figures being 94,572 I for 1917, and 94,854 for 1916. IXlle Cars Factor The difference in the excess of nn filled orders over idle cars for the I (wo years is accounted for by the j (act that on September 30, 1916, as j many as 34,167 cars were idle, [ whereas on October 1, 1917, only j 24,192 were reported as idle, thus | indicating a more efficient use of the j available equipment on the part of j the railroads.
