BORROWING CARS
Kansas Roads Threatened With
B'reiglit Car Pauline
Ithas been estimated that It would
require 100,000. cars to move this
year's Kansas wheat crop and this
fact is staring the railroad officials In
the face and they are wondering
where they are to gt;t enough cars to
do this imuience b i.sines:. That the
roads have been and are at. the present
time threatened with a car famine, is
not denied, and the Kansis roads are
making very prolitahlo efforts to
borrow from other roatl-i all the cars
possible so that they can take c re it
of their pirt of the great K ins.is
grain movement.
It is reported that the Santa Fe
road has just closed arrangements
with eastern roads Tor the borrowing
of 000 additional cars, to help tliein
out In this emergency. The H «'<
Island road has built within the p i t,
few moths 500 cars aud are turning
mere out of their shop every day, to
keep up if posssbie with the encrease 1
freight business, The Union Pacific
has likewise sought relief troni th-
eastern rjads and has added many
cars to its preseut equipments.
There Is no doubt but that tli Kan-
sas Railroad were caught a trill? short
handed by the sudden aud enormous
movement of Kansas wheat
Although they are in the pusitici
now to handle the business, yet for a
while It seemed as If they would ! '
swamped for want ol cars. The fail
ure of crop in some of the surround,
ing and adjacent slates, and the
imtneneeyield of wheat in Kansas,
has not only caused the price of wneat
togo up, but it has likewise caused a
a demand for Kiusas wheat, which is
pushing the roads to their fullest ca-
pacity.
