and Finished rroduct Kesumed Everywhere. The embargo placed on freight by the railroads last week in anticipation of the railroad shopmen's strike seriously handicapped a number of Richmond factories, as they were unable to ship or receive much needed materials. However, practically all of the factories had enough surplus raw material on hand to enable them to continue their work. As a number of the shopmen are returning to work and the trains are going back to the old

time schedules, the predicament in which the local manufacturers were placed. Is gradually lessening. Joseph Mills, of the Richmond Casket company, said that although his business was seriously tied up for a kfew days, and he was unable to ship, he had sufficient amount of raw material on hand to keep busy, until more arrived. The situation at the casket company Is practically cleaned up now. Superintendent Anderson of the K. D. Cabinet company, said that the com'.pany was badly hit by the embargo

and that all three factories of the company were unable to ship, except a small amount through Cincinnati. The cabinet company has a limited supply of raw material on hand, but 'It has a large number of shipments on the way, and with gradually reversion of shipping back to its pre6trike stride no serious handicap is .predicted. Motor Men "Drive Away." President Seldel, of the Pilot Motor Car company, said that although he was unable to ship cars, a number of dealers came and drove the cars to their various salesrooms. The company has received little or no shlpments, but with the situation clearing up, and enough raw material on hand, it will be able to resume work in full swing very shortly. Superintendent Howard Hunt of the .National Automatic Tool company, says this company has been and still are, seriously held up as the C. and O., wih whom they do their shipping, is operating no switch engines and conequently no shipments can enter or leave the plant. Manager Tiernan, of the Inianapolis Glove company, said that that company was probably the least hit of any of the local factories, as employes of the plant were enjoying their annual vacation all last week, and since opening up Monday have experienced little difficulty. Walter Reid of the Elliot-Reid company, states that shipments are limited to a certain extent, while practically no materials are coming in. However the factory has sufficient raw material on hand for two weeks at least, and with the return of the shopmen, the plant will be fully able to resume operations. Warren Clements, of the Wayne Works said Thursday that the Wayne Works were very seriously handicapped for a few days, but they were able to ship to a limited extent and also receive a small amount. The plant has plenty of raw material on hand to keep going, and as the situation is gradually clearing up, no more serious trouble is anticipated. No Relief Yet T. B. Jenkins, of the Jenkins Vulcan Spring company, said he was unable to make shipments except to a

small extent, while very little goods is coming in. However a sufficient amount of raw material to enable them to keep going is on hand. No relief has been experienced as yet from the embargo. Mr. Swayne, of the Swayne, Robinson company, stated that it has been impossible to ship or receive any shipments over the C. & O. in the last ten days. Swayne said that he understood that the railroad would have switch engines operating Friday, and shipping could be resumed. The company has enough raw material to stay at work. Other large factories in the city, who objected to being quoted, were also seriously handicapped as a result of the strike.
