Railroad Building in 1883.

CHICAGO, Nov. 1.-The next issue of
The Railway Age will contain the follow
ing: "Few people have had any correct
idea Of the amount of railway coustruc-
ton which has been in progress in the
United States during the present year.
The impression which widely obtained at
the commencement of the year that rail-
way extension had been practically sus-
pended and that 1888 would show very
little addition of railway track seems 10
have continued, although the statement
published in this journal for the first six
months showed that nearly 1000 miles OF
track had been laid The fact that the
great companies, which added thousands
OF miles of new road in 1887, practically
ceased construction at the end of that year,
for the time being, seemed to warrant the
impression that railway building had
practically come to stand-stil But
while few of the principal companies have
been doing much new building, still work
has been quietly in progress on hundreds
of short lines all over the land, and al
ready new track has been laid this wear
in every one OF the forty-seven states and
territories with The exception of Rhode
Island, Utah and Nevada, and almost
5000 miles of main line have been added
to the railway system of the country

dred millions, or nearly twice the popula-
tion of China.
But as the annual increment has de-
creased in the last century Of years by
(say) two-thirds per cent, and the rate
of decline may grow, if we assume its
gradual fall to two per cent. the result
would, I think, be to bring the population
of the United States, at the date which
have named, up to five hundred and fifty,
at between five hundred aud Fifty and FIVE
hundred and eighty millions. AS the rate
of future increase is conjectured, 40, of
course, is the result which is based upou
that rate.
An augmentation from sixty millions at
the present date to five hundred and fifty
millions at a date one hundred years
hence, is a multiplication ninefold with
in that period. This multiplication
sounds sufficiently startling. But there
is an estimate founded on references to
the past, which, If not automatically
determinate, are liable to error only with
