The Batesville Bee complains
that the demand for a switch en
gine at that place is very evi
dent. The Newport local is
forced to handle all the freight
for points above Batesville, as
well as for Batesville and inter
mediate points. This throws
more work on the local than they
are capable of handling, and as a
result its crew work from
16 to 20 hours a day. A switch
engine to do all the yard work
ana neuter quarry worn, aisu
make the run to Cushman, would
give a much better freight ser
vice and help out the local crew.
