The Richmond and Petersburg Railroad
Company's bridge across James river
burned on the 10Th oi March, and trains
did not pass again until May Both, during
which time the passengers and irelghl-
were transferred over distance OF nearly
two miles. This of course affected lis I'M
fayorahly.
The business between points north OF H.
and points on the Richmond and Danville
system has. by the lease OF the Virginia
Midland railroad on the one hand. and oi
the York River railroad on the other, to
the Richmond and Danyille Railroad Com
panv. been diverted from our line; and
ihe line riu West Point has bid for travel
at very low rates. That our business. un-
der these adverse influences, should have
been so good i encouraging.
The local ircightS were diminished by
the Lad crops OF 1881.
The increase i'm revenue from through

vour action in reducing local fares.
The current expenses have heavily in
crcoscd-yiz.. SG9.I4i.GG. The causes OF
this are. briefly: An extraordinary amount
OF steel rail twelve niles laid, and many
more crOSs-;icS than usual; the hcayily-ln-
creased cost Of railroad supplies; the bur
den Of two serious accidents, OF which one
was mentioned in the last report, ana one

changes and adjustments OF the service 10
the altered condition Of itS business. which,
though profitable and essential to IL wei
