It is noted that winter tourism to New Orleans and Cuba will surge, with about 10 000 Midwesterners visiting New Orleans and 5 0800 Illinois Central tourists last year. The era’s rail financials show Chicago Milwaukee and St Paul proposing 100 million dollars in new stock, Northern Pacific planning 95 million, and Pacific coast expansion. Union Pacific reports near five million growth in gross transportation receipts and ten million nine hundred twenty thousand eight hundred fifteen in investment income, with fixed charges cut by over two million through bond retirement. A coal-hurling machine for locomotives is ordered for 550 thousand dollars. The General Managers Association will press for a 4 cent hourly advance for yard conductors and brakemen, rejecting a 5 cent demand. Interstate Commerce Commission Chairman Knapp says nationwide cart shortage and railroad inefficiency reduce capacity, with managers citing overwork and recruiting difficulties across industries.
