In 111?, for tho first tiraa In ths history of railroading In tho Unltod Stairs. nearly as exeat a mileage of railroad was abandoned or torn up and sold for Junk because Its operation was unprofitable as the mileage of new railroad constructed, acoordlng to statistics compiled by the Railway Are and published In tta annual statistical number. The
mileage of new Hn which Sa leas than the
built new
was M3, mileage
built in any other year since the civil war except 1915, when 833 ,miles were constructed. ' On the other hand, railroad operation was abandoned onv942 mile* of line and In addition there' were 31*6 miles of road which the owners had asked permission from state commissions or legislatures to abandon. Moreover, this latter figure does not represent all of the mad which would be taken up- If owners could get oermission. The Railway Age has kept a record for thirtyfive years of new railroad construction, and in one year this amounted to more than 8,000 miles. In a number of years it has been more than 5,000 miles, and since 1910 it has been as follows: 1910. 4.122; 1911. 3.0M; 1912, 2,997; 1913, 3.071; 1914. 1,532; 1915, 933; 1916, 1.098. But never before has it seemed worth while keeping a record of the few miles of logging road or spur tracks which have been taken up. In 1917, however. 461 miles of railroad actually were taken up or In process of being taken up and sold for Junk. In addition, there were 491 miles of road on which operation was abandoned.

AUSTRIAN TO BE INTERNED
Paul Marcus Is Taken in Charge by Deputy U. S. Marshal. Paul Marcus, an Austrian, who had been ordered interned as a "dangerous alien” for perhaps the period of the war, was taken In custody yesterday by Frank S. Ream, a deputy United States mashal. He had been held by the sheriff at Brown stow n. Ind., where he was arrested recently for failure to register for military service. Besides admitting his failure to register, Marcus asserted to federal agents that he would not light against Austria, gnd that if released he would work so as to obtain money to return to his native country to enter its army. The authorities believe him to be a person who will be easily induced to destroy property in the United States, if he thought it would aid Austria. He is held at the workhouse, awaiting removal to a detention camp.
