Annual statement Of the MIchl.
gan Central Railroad Co.

DETROIT, June 2j.-The annual meet.
ing Of the Michigan Central Railroad
Company was held here to-day, and di,
rectors were elected for the ensuing year
Owing to the short time between the
close OF the fiscal year, May 81, and the
date Of the election Of the new Board, il
has been impossible to give the strictly
accurate results Of the working OF the
road for the past year. The Secretary,
however, submitted the estimated results,
which, it Is believed, are sufficiently
close not to differ materially from what
are the actual results when obtained. The
funded debt shows decrease Of Sl5l 900
due 10 the retirement Of the J. L. and S.
bonds, and Michigan Central sinking
fund bonds. The total earnings from
traffic were So, ,4s3,0OO and operating ex.
penses 81, ,4S9, 900; taxes S2G1, 600, show.
ing decrease in the gross earnings OF
S367 $50, and in the operating expenses
Sl97,225. The percentage Of working
expenses, exclusive Of taxes to the earn.
ings, shows an increase OF only $40 Of
one per cent, including the taxes OF two
and forty.nine hundreths per cent. The
increase in taxes Is principally due to
unpaid taxes Of previous years. The
floating debt has been reduced to $3.50.
600 Of which amount Sl5O,0O0 has been
paid since the close Of the fiscal year.

New YORK, June 25.-The lady who
killed herself and her child at Sing Sing
on Saturday was Mrs. Mary Virginia
Burrill, not Mrs. Hubbell, as previously
reported. She was the wife OF John Bur.
rill, a wealthy real estate and insurance
agent Of Brooklyn. She has for some
time been conSidered as insane, and last
year was confined in the Insane Asylum
for three weeks. Last week she visited
her husband in Brooklyn and learned
from him that he had obtained divorce
from her. She returned to Sing Sing and
got possession Of large navy revolver,
with which she first shot her daughter,
Alma Haskins, child by her former
husband, and then shot herself. It is
said that the news OF the divorce was the
primary cause Of the suicide and murder.
