The Impression generally prevails that rail-
way lines passing through the most thickly
settled sections having the largest local traf1c,
and favored also with the ltghtest grades,
would be worked at the lowest per centage of
expense, as compared with total receipts. That
such an impression should be entertained is
quite natural, but that 1t Is not we'll founded In
all cases is demonstrated by q comparison of
the working expenses Of what are called the
four trunk or principal through lines of this
country. a tabular statement has recently
been published which shows the average per
centage for the term Of eleven years last past
for each of the lines referred to to be as follows:
Pennsylvania, $685.; Baltimore and Ohio $3.50;
N. Y. Central, 6ssT2; Erie, 1854. Taking each
OF the eleven years, and comparing the four
railroads, it is found that the Pennsylvania
was operated upon the lowest per centage of
working expenses In 1870, 1878, 1874, 1876 and
1877; the Baltimore and Ohio in 1883, 1871, 1872,
1876 and 1878; and the N. Y. Central in 1869.
The Erie was in every year operated at the
highest cost of the four roads included in the
comparison.
Considering population, local business, light
grades and all the elements properly entering
into the case, the showing is rather the most
Damaging for the Vanderbilt line, though its
percentage Of cost is considerably lower than
Erie; and, by the same rule, the Baltimore &
Ohio appears to the best advantage. 1t is true,
that its percentage for the whole eleven years
Is a little higher than that of the Pennsylvania,
but 1t must be remembered that it runs through
section Of country less thickly settled and less
productive than either of its great competitors,
though this consideration may be Offset again
by certain elements not within the control of
management, such as cheaper fuel, larger ex-
Cess OF freight over passenger business &c.
