A PESSIMISTIC VIEW.
President Miller, Of the Mil
Waukee Road, on the Years
Operations.
The Railroad Situation as He
Sees 1t Is Very I'm
promising.
Denial Of the Allegation That
the Roads Are Over
Capitalized.
Erroneous Statements Made
by Roads in Northwest
ern Blind Pool.

NEW YORK, Aug. 27.-The annual re-
port of the st. Paul railroad for the fis-
cal year ending June 80 was issued to-
day. 1t shows gross earnings S27, 504,-
224. an increase of S1,09S,516 operating
expenses, SIS, 3G6, 500, an increase of
81, 1913, 402; net earnings, 50, 137, 724, de-
crease of 1914, $50; income from other
sources amounted to 1884, 2O7, making a
total income of 50, All, 931; fixed charges
were S7.237. 261, leaving balance of
50, 294, $50. After paying per cent div
idendS on the preferred stock there is a
surplus of S699, 16S. The company dur
ing the year obtained control of the en-
tire capital stock of tine Milwaukee &
Northern road, giving its own stock in
exchange share for share. 1t received a 4
per cent dividend on its CLOSE shares
of Milwaukee & Northern stock, amount
ing to $246, $50.
In his report President Miller takes a
very pessimiStic view of the situation.
He says: 'It is an unavoidable cOnclu
sion that when so large an increase in
gross earnings produces no increase in
net revenue, the rates obtained for
cluSiOn is often met by the assertion
that existing rates would be high enough
for all needs if they were maintained.
1t seems idle to talk of maintenance of
rates when pooling is prohibited by leg
iSlatiOn. Maintenance of rates will not
relieve American railways from the
competition of foreign roads. They are
compelled to either reduce through
rates, under penalty of being compelled
to reduce intermediate, pay subsidies to
foreign roads, or lose the traffic."
On the matter of wages he says that
there is a constant pressure that has re-
suited in a considerable advance in
wages without corresponding increase
in net revenue. 1t is impossible that
liberal standard of wages can long be
maintained unless the capital which
sustains the enterprises is employed
also and permitted to receive a liberal
compensation for its use. The pay
mentS of the company for labor directly
employed in its service last year were
S12, 463, 1862, and for material and sup
plies Sc, 955, III, of which 70 per cent or
S5,216, S32, were for labor in production,
making total of ST $50, 195 expended.
President Miller denies the charge
that the principal lines OF railway in the
West are Oyercapitallzei, and asserted
that these roads cannot be duplicated
for their present capitalization. On the
rate question he also says: During the
past year efforts to improve the general
situation gave rise to the Western Traf-
fic association, which has this feature,
that especially distinguishes it from
other associations, that the governing
authority rests in the boards of direct
ors of the various companies. 1t is not
to be expected that it should at once
cure all the evils it has to deal with,
but it has certainly been of valuable
interest to railway interests.n

CANADIANS PROTEST
Against the Plan OF Strengthening
American Cattle.

OT<-wA, Ont, Aug. 27-In the house
of commons. Mr.. CARING. minister OF
agriculture, said that the announcement
made by Premier Abbott in the senate
that there would be permitted the
importation of live American cat
tie TO be slaughtered at certain deSg-
mated points within the Dominion.
where meat packing concerns will be
established, more especially at Three
Rivers, where the Bender Dead Meat
company will start large establish
ment, had no reference to any contem-
plated tariff change in that respect.
1.-The cattle will be brought into Can
ada," he said, ''in veStibuled cattle cars,
and will have to pass a Canadian in
spector at the border in whose charge
they will be until they reach the point
at which they are to be slaughtered,
from which they will issue only in the
manufactured article"
TORONTO, Ont, Aug. 27.-The pro-
posal TO slaughter American cattle at
Three Rivers for canning purposes is to
be vigorously opposed. The exporters
have held meeting here to consider
the matter. Opinions were unanimous
that the scheme would most injuriously
affect the cattle trade of the Dominion,
and delegate was dispatched to Ottawa
to lay the views of the meeting before
the government. The Montreal export
ers are expected to make similar move
immediately.

RAILWAY MEN PROTEST.
Reduction in Rates May Affect
Only the Workers.

ST. LOUIS, Aug. 27.-Texas railroad
employees are up in arms against the
sweeping reductions in charges which
are being ordered by the railroad COM
missioners. The following petition adj
dressed to the commission is being gen
orally signed by the employees in all de-
partments of railway service in the
state: We, the undersigned employees
of the state of Texas, know that any
material reduction in the now existing
freight rates of the state means cor
responding reduction in our wages, and
we respectfully ask the honorable state
board of commissioners to consider the
matter carefully, as with our present
wages and hazardous employment we
are already underpaid, and are getting no
more than is actually necessary to sup
port our families.

ST. LOUIS, Aug, 27.-At to-day's ses-

ton the report of its committee on griev-
ance was to the effect that the members
of the local union of the Pacific coast

order in San Francisco and Portland
without the initiating fee, but OH pay
ing the pro rata tax from date of admis-
sion. The president of the American
Federation of Labor and the executive
committee of that body was censured
for falling to carry out instructions
given at the meeting in Detroit in De-
cembeT last to settle troubles between
the Pacific slope and the national organ
ization. Contrary to expectation the
boycott placed upon the Anheuser-
Busch and William j. Lemp beer brew
cries has not been raised. Quite an OPP
posite stand has been taken. A resolu-
ton has been passed notifying all local
unions that they must, if necessary,
draw their last cent out of the
treasury to push the boycott to the Bit
ter end. The American Federation of
Labor and the executive board of the
Knights of Labor will be requested to
do likewise

A BOLD PROPOSAL.

mission to Be BIuffed.
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Aug. 27.-The
regular monthly meeting of the Trans
Missouri Freight association will be
held next Tuesday. The call has been
issued, and bears many subjects of
i'm portance to be considered at the
coming meeting. One of the most i'm
pOrtant subjects is the proposition that,
when complaints be made before the
interstate commerce commission against
one or more lines, the defense be made
in the name of all companies in the as
ISOLATION, and managed by the chair
man, with the assistance of such at
torneys as the chairman may call
upon. In other words, although the
law fOrbids pooling in any form, and
the commission is supposed to enforce
the law, it is the proposition that the
roads pool under the nose of the legal
body and plead all cases, not as Indi-
vidual roads, but as lines combined to
fight each others battles.
