of the West Virginia Central Railway Company mat
in this city to-day. The president submitted
report OF the operations ard condition Of the company
for the ten months ending October 81 which showed
this year to have been the most prosperous in the

precedented food losses Of last july amounting to
some $50 900, all the ordinary and extraordinary eX-
ponses, S145 1872 As, and the fixed charges for the
ten months, nearly $4,000, the net earnings Of the
company for the ten months are S65,692 so. The
rolling stock has been increased by the purchase Of
four locomotives and 266 Of all kinds. The
Cheat extension running from Thomas. in Tucker
County, W. Va, to Leadville, in Randolph County,
W. Va, some thrty-fve miles, Is well under way
and would have been completed but for the bad
weather this year. 1t hoped to have trains running
10 Leadvle early in the spring. This extension will
open up an immense territory Of coal and timber.
The connection with the Baltimore and Ohio at
Cumberland was finished In August last, and freight
traffic is being delivered 10 that company there,
instead Of al West Virginia Central Junction, as hereto
5ore. The coal department is selfsusaining and has
