gained for both roads, the PENNSYLVANIA has
been compelled to pay for.
This dependence for New York outlet has
led the lines through New York to assume an
advantage over the Pennsylvania route in all
negotiations between them. When the
observance of certain conditions was pro-
posed, and the Pennsylvania had accepted
them for itself, but has said that it could not
bind the New Jersey road, Commodore Van
derbilt would say, Then you haven't got
line"
1t is reasonable to suppose that the Penn
sylvania Company has not been contented
with the situation. But it was by no means
easy to improve it, An outlet further north,
by the Allentown Line, may have been
within its reach, but to use this it must turn
its through traffic from its main line 100
miles west of Philadelphia, and in 80 doing
take business away from instead of through
Philadelphia, which it was built to serve and
which is O part owner of the railroad and
chooses three of the directors, while sixteen
out of seventeen of its directors are residents
of that city and many of them intimately in
terested in Its prosperity. To obtain the New
York and Philadelphia road seemed we'll nigh
impossible. 1t is the property of the 'United
Companies of New jersey which own,
besides, the old Camden and Ambov Rail-
road, and five shorter New Jersey roads, hav-
ing a mileage altogether of 165 miles. They
have a controlling interest in fourteen other
New Jersey railroads, from p to 60 miles
long, having in the aggregate mileage of
260 miles. They lease two other railroads
with total length of 81 miles. They own
also the Delaware and Raritan Canal, Go
miles long, one of the great coal carriers of
New Jersey. They operate 446 miles of
railroad line, LOG of which has q double
track. At the end of last year its property
represented a capital of $33, ,693, 69i'S1. On
the stock, amounting to more than ST. ,000,-
600, it has usually paid per cent. dividends
semi-annually.
1t is now reported that the Pennsylvania
Company has leased this property, and will
operate it in connection with its other lines
Reports of this kind are not to be accepted
on mere rumor but in this case there are
circumstances which make it at least proba-
BILE that the report is true The Pennsylva-
MIA Company has been making general and
minute examination of the property such as
would enable it to understand its value aud
bargain for it intellgently. According to
the report published in New York, the Penn
sylvania Company is to have permanent
lease of all the lines owned by the united
companies at O rental of 81, 200, 900, which is
ten per cent. upon a valuation of $40, 900, 600.
This is very large sum to pay, but consider
ing the improvements which the united CON-
panies have been able to make while paying
ten per cent. dividends, it is perhaps not in
excess of the earnings of the property here
tofore, while there is very little doubt that
the Pennsylvania Company, with its thou
sands of miles of road in the West and South,
can use the property to greater advantage
| than its present owners.

THE PENNSYLVANIA RAILROAD COM.
PANY AND NEW YORK.
From the Railroad Gazette.

From the Railroad Gazette.
In some respect the great system of rail-
roads controlled by the Pennsylvania Com
pany, which reaches New Orleans in the
South, Denver in the West and Duluth in
the North, has suffered from the same defect
as that of the SOY" roads: it has had no in
dependent outlet to New York. 1t is true
that circumstances have made this defect less
important, for not only is the New York and
Philadelphia Railroad a short one, but its
operations are confined entirely to New Jer-
sey, and it has sought for no extensions
beyond the Delaware. Thus it has been ready
to transport traffic for any and all parties who
might bring it to its line obstinately and sue
cessfully opposing the establishment of any
rival in New Jersey, and as obstinately re-
fusing to become the rival of any line outside
of that State So, if its requirements were
somewhat burdensome to the Pennsylvania
Company, they were no more so than they
were to all other companies.
But whenever there has been competition
between the great lines from New York to
the West the New Jersey Company, which
shared all the advantages of the traffic over
the Pennsylvania Railroad to New York, has
refused to bear any part OF the labor or ex-
pense of securing it, When rates were re-
duced to non paying prices, the New Jersey
Company has insisted on receiving its rega-
lar prices, and the dependent position of the
Pennsylvania Company has compelled it to
accede to its demands. The immense bust
ness which the Pennsylvania Company has
brought to the New Jersey road at Philadel-
phia has not been obtained without effort
and expense. Agencies all over the Union, a
costly system of advertising, fayors to ship
pers and others who might influence traffic,
have had much to do in attracting this i'm
mense business, and the entire expense has
been borne by the Pennsylvania Company.
The New Jersey Company has quietly taken
the traffic and-its pay for carrying It.
Last spring, when there was contest as to
the capacity of the different lines for speed,
and the Pennsylvania Company deemed it
necessary to run train between New York
and Boston at the fastest rate possible the
New Jersey Company, which, by reason of
its low grades, straight line, and perfect
track, is able to make as fast time as any line
in America, refused to change its schedule
for this fast train, and required three hours
and quarter for the ninety miles between
Philadelphia and New York for train which
came over the mountains from Pittsburg to
Philadelphia at more rapid rate. Yet
this company shared whatever advantage was
to be gained by this fast train. SO il has been
! continually. Whatever advantage was to be
