Complaint of Car Famine.
Knoxville, Tenn., April 24.—Coal
consumers in North and South Caroli
na aro again complaining of a coal car
shortage. They assert that they are
unable to get a sufficient supply of
coal, due to tho lack of cars. The
Knoxville division of the Southern
claims to be handling all the coal cars
given it, and no blockade exists on
this division. The trouble appears
to be elsewhere, in other divisions not
furnishing coal cars to the Knoxville
end, where the coal Is produced. This
shortage of cars Is true, despite the
fact that the demand for coal Is said
to be about 6G0 per cent of what It
was In February, when there was an
abundance of coal cars.
