Business conditions on the Southern railway seem to be on the mend ; at least such Ik the ease life this state. Heavy freight trains are beginning to move more freely. Last Friday, a freight train started from Spartanburg for Columbia, with more than 60 cars. When the train reached the Columbia yards at Uoysters, the train includckl 102 cars, more than 65 of them loaded, and all swung on one engine. Engineer J. M. Hutchison was the engine driver. Last Friday night there was a rush /all for empty cars to move cotton from Kershaw. An engine was sent from liock Hill to Blacksburg and pass ed through Yorkvllle early Saturday morning with a string of 24 "empties." The cars were taken to Kershaw, where they were loaded with 800 bales of cotton oji Saturday. Passenger tragic is also ou the mend. More passengers are hei^ig handled by the local trains on the Marlon and KlngviUe branch, and similar improve ment is reported from other division!*. For some time past there has been talk among railroad men that the Southern management did not expect to put on the special service between Blackviile and Augusta, via Aiken, to handle the Pullman cars^ for those points from trains Nos. 31 and 32. ^The trains from Blackviile to Augusta are designated "Tourist" trains, as they are intended especially to handle tha tour ist travel into and out of Augusta. By a schedule issued last week, the tour ist trains .were put on as usual, effec tive Sunday ; but may not run regular ly unless the traffic demands It, as these trains can be annulled by "3i" train orders. ?

Rich And Poor Ask Bread in Belgium. London, November 20 ? Notwithstand ing the extensive relief work already done ip Belgium, conditions there are becoming more serious. Jean Van Branden of the Belgian national relief committee, who arrived here today from Brussels, said refugees were pour ing into that city at the rate of 26,000 a day. J "This influx," he said "bj^due to a lnck of fuel. A# well as food. Brussels has plenty of coal, but Interruption of transportation makes it impossible to carry it to remote villages. Refugees also are flocking to Liege and other large towns. "The people are dependent entirely on kerosene for beating and cooking and the. supply of this fuel also is becoming scarce. "The committee no<v is supplying 600,000 meals daily in Brussels to 30, 000 persons. . These meals consist of I>otato soup, some rice and a piece of bread. At first the allowance of bread, was six ouuccs dally, J>ut this has been reduced to three ounces. Even the rich find it almost impossible to obtain bread in Brussels and soon the whole population will form into a vast line."
