NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 24, 1917. UNFILLED ORDERS ABOUT THE SAME Not Much Difierence in October 1917 and October 1916 Washington, Oct. “Harrison chairman of the railroad war board, authorizes the following: The railroads of the country report that on October 1st the excess of un- filled orders from shippers for freight cars over and above the idle cars at different points numbered 70,380. ' This is the figure which has been commonly, but inaccurately, referred to as car shortage. This compares with the excess of unfilled car requisitions amounting to 77,682 on July 1st; 33,776, August 1st; 34,605 on September 1st. The difference in the excess of un- filled order over unfilled cars for tho two years is accounted for by the fact identical with the number on Octo- ber 1st, last year, the flgures being 94,572 for October 1, 1917, and 94,854 for September 30, 1916. The digerence in excess of unfilled orders over unfilled cars for the two years is accounted by the fact that on September 30, 1916, as many as 34,157 cars were idle, whereas on October 1, 1917, only 24,192 were re- ported as idle, thus indicating a more efficient use of the available equip- ment on the part of the railroads. Returns to the railroads’ war board show that the actual number of cars and locomotives now in service on American railroads is only slightly in 24.—Fairfax AVOID ALL MEAT IF KIDNEYS AND BLADDER BOTHER Uric Acid in meat excites and irritates the Bladder.

He also secured more than 100 photographs and these will be shown in stereopticon at his lec- ture next Sunday evening- at 7:30 o’clock at the church. The Grand Canyon of Arizona is a great yawning gash in the earth's surface, two hundred and seven miles long, one mile deep, and with an average width of nine miles. Nature has painted its cliffs and valleys with soft, mellow colors which are con- stantly changing and re-changing under the influence of cloud and sun. At sunrise the Canyon is often filed With clouds which give the appear- ance of a great white sea, which lazi- ly lifts itself from the depths at the call of the sun.

HAWKER EMPEROR IN BERLIN Prepares to Begin to Deal With Po- litical Crisis, and His "Conference With His Confldential Man. Copenhagen, Oct.-24—Emperor Wil- liam returned to Berlin last night prepared to begin dealing immediate- ly with the political crisis, particu- larly as it affects the imperial chan- cellorship. Rudolf von Valentini, chief of the emperor’s civil cabinet, made a report to the emperor on the train on the various developments of the internal political situation dur- ing the emperor’s absence in the Bal- kans. Valentini is known jokingly as “the carrier of the bowstring” on account of the part he plays in the political demise of the highest imperial and Prussian civil officials. He acts as the emperor’s eyes and ears in ascer- taining public and political opinion regarding ministers and ministerial candidates. Responsibility is larly to Valentini and selection of Dr. Michaelis when it was decided to drop Prince von Buelow as a candidate owing to the socialists announcement that they would make open war on the govern- ment if the prince were reinstated as chancellor. It is said that Michaelis was not even considered as a candi- date three hours before his appoint- ment was made. Prince von Buelow is again being advocated strongly for the chancellor- ship by the conservatives and by Herr Erzberger of the central party and Herr Streseman of the national lib- eral party. Erzberger and Streseman however, do not have the entire strength of their parties behind them. Socialists, through the party’s service accredited popu- for the discovery in case that the emperor asks the opinion of the Reichstag parties, they will not hesitate to tell him their un- favorable opinion of von Buelow as a candidate for the chancellorship.
