MAXY IDLE CARS ALONG
WESTERN RAILROAD LINES
A conservative estimate of the num
ber of idle railroad cars in the Pacific
Northwest U said to be flout) to 7ono.
These figures include the states of Oro.
gon, Washington. Idaho, Nevada and
Arizona. On the O. R. & N. Co.'s linen
alone are upward of 2.100 idle freight
cars. The cause assigned is falling off
of merchandise movement, the holding
of a portion 'of the grain crop by inter
ior farmers and millers, and the de
crease of the east-bound lumber move
me.nt. A iSn-itnn dispatch from the Journal
says that according compilations by
the. Boston News bureau, there are up
ward of lt!).im railroad cars idle, in
tlio United States. The same bureau's
figures on the states of Oregon, Idaho,
( alifornia. Nevada and Arizona place
the number of idle cars in those slates
at 35S2.
There are., more idle cars than that in
tho state of On'gon and California
alone. If the Boston bureau's figures
are as far under I lie fart for ot her
sections of the country its estimate for
the whole Cnited States is believed to
U? fully 4n per crel too ..w.
