We find on looking at the Report of the previous
year, that the receipts were $469,S63 90, or $59,
434 % more than this year. The reason assigned
for the falling of, is the opposition that was en-
countered during FIVE months OF the year by steam
boats running through the Chesapeake and Della
ware Canal. This opposition has been permanently
bought off by an arrangement with the Canal Com
pany: and the Directors say in their Report that
comparison of the revenue since the opposon ceased
exhibits considerable increase over the same pc
Rod last year. We find, however, that the receipts
IN 1884, the year previous, amounted TO SoV5ooo o.
and that if the expenses OF that year had been no
more than they were during the year 1913, land the
Report of the Engineer says they still be dmln-
ished,) or S230,3S4 sc, there would have been
profit of 1878 433 63, within about s. 200 OF the
sum required TO declare dividend offs per cent. in
terest on the Loan, and lay aside 100000 toward
a Sinking Fund the interest of which will be Soooo
per annum, or 81 900 more than the deficiency.
Why did the receipts fall off S134,0lO 65 from
184l to 1912 This cannot answer. CONNER
cial embarrassments may probably have been the
chief reason.
1t is very probable, however, that the receipts for
1914 will be equal to any former year The pros
poets ofbusness were never brighter, and the Poit-
ical canvass, especially the great Conventions at
Baltimore, will add much to the income OF this
Road. IS.
