This is most remarkable showing With an increased
busipess il has cost 81 069 $40 less to maintain the
roadbed and track than in 1879 and 1921 G53 less to
keep in order the equipment and machinery OF the road
while operating expenses proper show an increase Out
not in proportion TO the extra work DONE But
il appears that construction account has again
been charged with $1.467O37 which ia not far
from the amount Of reduction Of cost in maintaining
road bed, track, and equipment. The principal items In
this increase are In round figures $4,000 for masonry
and graduation 3 900 for bridges, 100000 for super
structure, including iron ard steel; S622'4OO
for engine and ear-hOuses, machine-shops, @ei
land, &C., $4,000, and $35O,OOO for equipment
The rolling stock is exported changed as follows One
less locomotive eleven Of rscass passenger cars seven
of baggage mail and express, and an increase OF two
secondclass and cmigrant and 7l3 freight cars
The extra side tracks belonging TO che company nave
been increased 80 miles. The bonded debt OF the COM
pany increased by the sum OF S397596 The payments
from net earnings for 1876 635l greater for inter
est than in 1879 and for rent of leased lines S2l99l6
the latter increase probably rejecting the additional
rental Of Harlem on account Of increased In
tercst payments on its bonds. The report, all
in all, is a wonderful production OF nicely bal
anced items but the results presented Are so
Inconsistent with those Of all other railroads
that one may well ask what would have been the state OF
the accounts if construction had been sealed book
Again the public left much in doubt as ever as to
the sources from which is derived the SS3s0oO-Oyer
I,o of an annual diyidend-which is credited to Mseei-
aneous" further information concerning this mystery
being offered in the report.
