Trafflc nt Lo*r Ebb. According to the New York Commer? cial, recent advices from Important polnts along the llne of the NorfolV and AVestern do not hold out much hopi of early improvement ln trafflc condl? tlons. The westbound coal traftlt holds up satlsfactorlly, but ln almosi every other respect the business ot tlu road ls at a low ebb. The eastboun. coal trafflc and tlie tonnago of coke, on: and lumber contlnue small, while the volume of genoral merchandise movlng ls least satisfactory of all. Tho elaborate program of reconstruc? tlon and lmprovement whlch the Nor? folk and AVestern entered upon over o year ago Is stlll belng carrled on, but much more slowly than before the pres? ent depression began.

At the present rate of prog? ress It ls estlmated that the changet of alignment, reduction of grades ane double-tracking ombraced ln the orlg? lnal program wlll not be completed Insido of another year and a half.
