Tho animal ran8rt of the Lake shore and Michigan
Southern Railway Company of it's business for tie
wear ended December 81, 1875 was issued to-day
and if the low rates for transportation which the
company received be considered the report makes
q very favorable exhibit. There was reduction IN
the average OF receipts per J0n per mile OF from
Os6I cents ~ 1877 90 C.73t cents in ISIS, de-
crease OF 1910 mills. But the most remarkable
feature of tle report is that II shows the cost lot
transportation per ton per mile to have been reduced
from O.--5 cents iu 1877 TO O.174 cents IN 1879
The magnitude of this reduction VIII be realized
when Ir is remembered that the same company re-
ported the cost IN 1878 10 have been O.9i6 cents
There was so a reduction in the receipts per mile
from passengers of from 2.513 cen.s III
1877 to 12s7 cents in 1s7s, and the cost
Der passenger per mile was reduced
from I559 cents to 1.16G cents. This low
cost pcr mile seems all the more remarkable
because the Central and Hudson Company I'D It's
last annual report gave the cost per ton on Its line
az O5g ccats and per passenger at 1.27 cents. The
traffic movement Of 1875 was ,ho largest in the his
tory of the company the total OF tons moved hay
ing been 6.Og- 40. against j,5I3,395 IN 1877 and
5.G3J IG7 I'D 1876 while the number of tons carried
one mile for the three years was 1910, 467,s2l IN
1875, 1UsO. .OO5 JGI in ST, and 1.133.o3 ,s26 in
1876. The number OF Passengers carried IN 1878
wa- 2.-tG032, against 2,749,295 in 1877 and
3,lI"s2j 1876; hut the mileage ior last year was
smaller than g., had been i'm any previous year since
1870 having been 133, 7O2. O21. against l3S,llG-
els iu 1s7T and 17J,51O.5O1 in 1876.
