of the 45th annual report of the com
pany, as submitted to the stock hold
ers of the road. The report shows
the company to be in a fioulishing
condition under its present excellent
management. The increase in the
earnings during the past year has
been $50, 1855, of which $10,1TS,7 rs
is an increase in gross earnings, and
SAC, 206,S0 a decrease in operating ex-
penses. There has been a large in
crease in freight and small de-
crease in passenger travel. Ten per
cent has been paid in quarterly divi-
dends. The Martinsburg and Poto-
mac road paid for the year ending
December 81, 1879, $1,3s5,22. This
is contradiction of the reports that
the Martinsburg and Potomac road
does not pay expenses.
