RAILROADS IN VIRGINIA The annual
report OF the State railroad commissioner,
Col. ]. c. Hill, which is just out, gives some
interesting statistics. Il shows that during
the twelve months ended June, 1889, l24l9
miles Of railroad were constructed 10 this
State. The total miles of main lines and
branches is 1888 60 IL four years 622 miles
of railroad have been added TO the mileage,
and the gross earnings have increased from
S14 742, 3S7. 90 10 1856 to $50, coo 900 in 1889.
The commissioner recommends the appoint.
ment OF persou who shall give his whole
time to the examination OF the ply steal con-
ton of roadwaya and rolling stock He also
recommends that the companies be required
to notify the commissioner Immediately
when an accident occurs aud, further that
no company should be allowed TO charge
greater compensation for shorter than
longer distance without the permission OF
that officer, under such rules as may be pre-.
scribed by law. He favors also the epplica.
ton of the principles of the interstate com.
merce law to business Rilhln ths Safe. Ii
is probable that during the rresentyea con-
siderable work will be done The Chesa.
peake and Ohio. besides double-:racking
some of their roadway, may possibly take
some steps towards building the projected
new line to Washington city.
