business, the great number Of bankrupt
roads and the uncertain future for all
roads unless there IL change In the
management, and fsvors the pooling plan.
He says that superior natural advantages,
better management. aud greater volume
OF business will necessarily keep some
solvent much longer than others, but
every bankrupt line tends to drag 9TH
ers down. Such road pays nothing to
stockholders or bondholders. 1t has no
responsibility to owners, patrons or the
people. Il does business comparatively
Tor nothing. It's property deteriorates,
and the country through which it runs
will in the end experience the disas-
uous effects OF its carelessDess. II
all the great trunk lines were brought 10
that condition, not only would immense
properties be destroyed but credit and
trade be 90 paralyzed that every interest
and the whole country would be irrepa-
rably injured. The pool tries to avoid
this. The only danger that can be urged
against II is that 1t may establish exor.
bitant prices, but this Is impossible, the
public have become used 10 very low
charges and will submit 10 no other.
The best skill, the most prudent man
agement, the utmost good faith can not
provide for more than barely living
prices. The effort Of the pool can not
raise or keep the rate Of transportation
to 4 figure 50 high, but what the most
rigid economy and the ablest manage.
ment will be required to enable the COM
panies 10 live. The railroads now exist.
Ing, II crowded to their utmost capacity,
could do four times the business Of the
country.
Ifthere were only two rates during the
year, q summer and winter one, all the
shippers would know Just what to expect
and would be uniformity dealt with. 1t
would add dimmesurably to the prosperity
and stability OF our commerce. All combi.
nations heretofore made, based on differ.

agents in their anxiety to secure business
and to favor friends. Under the equitable
