METROPOLITAN.

The general manager, Mr. Fenton, states in his
report that the number of passengers conveyed
over the railway during the past half-year was
12,994,223, the traffic receipts being £128,474.
The increase over the corresponding half-year of
1867 was 1,505,865 in passengers, and £14,032 in
receipts. In addition to the number of passengers
conveyed over the line 732,166 local passengers had
been carried over the Hammersmith and City and
St. John's-wood Ritil trays. The working expenses
during the half-year showed a total increase over the
corresponding half of 1867 of £3,100. The increase.
in office expenses was £1,467 (being one-half of the
charges formerly carried to capital account); in rates
and taxes £3,766. The other working expenses
had been actually less during the past half-year,
although there had been so large a❑ increase in the
receipts. The largest number of passengers con-
veyed over the railway in any one week since the
opening of the line was in IVhitsuntide last, from
Saturday, the 30th of-May, to Friday, the sth of
June, both days inclusive, the total being 600,558.
fhe largest number in one day was 112,287, on
Whit Monday last. The traffic of the Hammer-
smith and City Railway continued to progress sa-
tisfactorily. The extension of the line to the Broad-
way at Hammersmith was expected to be completed
during the autumn, The St. John's-wood Rail-
way was opened for traffic on the 13th April last,
and the trains had been worked over it with great
regularity. The Metropolitan Company's mile-
age proportion of the receipts to and from this line
was nearly equal to the amount received by this
company in respect of the Hammersmith and City
Railway immediately after its opening. The junc-
tion with the Midland Railway was opened on the
13th inst., and 42 trains per day were now running
between that line and Moorgate-street. The Mid-
land Company were already carrying a consider-
able traffic, and were about toducrease the number
of their trains.
