A wonderful story is that told in the
small blue volume just given to the public
by the Interstate Commerce Commission.
1t is entitled Statistics of Railways in
the United States" and ii is the first
annual volume Of the sort issued by the
new commission, and the first thorough
showing of the details OF railway con-
struction, ownership and operation ever
made by the Federal Government. The
book is thus interesting in that it marks
the first serious effort by the Government
to follow the example LONG since set 1t IN
England, where Government insists upon
the right to possess information concern
ing all details of the railway industry.
The man who prepared this book, Henry
{. Adams, is astatistician Of some renown
and no little acumen One of his most
important tables presents summary of
the railway capital of the United States,

II appears that the astonishing number
of ASS railway companies are in legal

these ASS railways are operated by
about five hundred companies. Thus,

gives absolute control of more than eight
billions of property. In precise figures.
ownership OF 23.77 per cent. gives control

OF the total capital AZ. 50 per cent. is assigna-
bic TO stocks and 100 per cent. TO funded debt,
leaving 4s7 per cent in the form OF current liza

closed will be readily seen IL the peculiar nature
OF each form of property is held in mind. In
theory stocks represent the property OF the re-

incumbrauce on that property. According 10
this theory railway enterprise should begin
with an issue OF stock somewhere near the
value of the property TO be created, and no more
bonds should be issued than are necessary TO
complete the enterprise. But this theory does
not conform TO the general history OF railway
cons truction in the United States The truth
ts, railroads are built on borrowed capital, and
the stock issued represents, in the majority of
cases, the difference between the actual cost of
the undertaking and the confidence of the public
expressed by the amount of bonds it is willing
