<DIV align=center><STRONG>Fifteen of Order of Two Thousand Received by Virginian
at Deepwater</STRONG></DIV>
<DIV align=left> Yesterday the Virginian Railway received at
Deepwater, the western terminus, fifteen coal cars of an order for two thousand
placed several months ago. This is the first consignment of this order and
its arrival has been hailed with pleasure all along the line. For some
time the Virginian has been laboring under the disadvantage of not having
sufficient rolling stock to take care of the business. Now that the two thousand
cars are being delivered, it is felt that pressure will be relieved to some
extent. Cars also are coming from other orders and a number of new engines
have been placed in commission.</DIV>
<DIV align=left> The two thousand cars will consist of fifteen
hundred steel gondolas and five hundred steel hoppers. Eighty of them are
on the road, bound for Deepwater, and each day will see from fifteen to
twenty-five of them started on their active careers. They are delivered to
the Virginian by the Chesapeake and Ohio.</DIV>
