her a cripple in that arm for life.

CHICAGO, April 1.-The annual report
OF the Illinois Central Railroad, just made
public, shows that the net earnings Tor the
year 1879 amounted to $2,10S,10O. This
Is $099, ,741 leSs than the net earnings for
1871. This difference is traceable 10 the
increased expenses for handling an in
creased amount OF freight, to the burning
OF elevators ut the time OF the Chicago
fire, and TO tho deficiency In lake trans
portatlon, due TO the increase In
the price OF iron, which stimulated
its production in this country enor.
