ITS SUPERVISION.

Washington Oct 6-The report of the Interstate
t,ommerce Commission which has just been made
contains a body Of statistics concerning rail-
roads an abstract of which has already been
published Some Of the figures in detail as follows:
The Capitalization Of the 62.39730 miles covered

this amount si6sS SO was represented by stocks
and e. 053O8sO5O by FUNDED debt. Mortgage bonds
amounted to ASlz.57O 9g3 compared with HO'l,-
CTS for the previous year. The above hgures
show an increase in capitalization during the year
1882 Of s397 273 il9 In view OF the slight actVlty IN
railway construction this increase in capitalization
"a worthy of special notice. In large measure 1t is
due TO investments by large corporations in minor
copnanies and to reorganization. In quite a num-
her of cases also stock dividends or their equiva-
Tents have been issued. OF the total stocks ana
bonds outstanding. the railway corporations on
June 80 1892 held as their corporate property
Il sl 4 o3 being an increase of sl0s53l 3S7 over the
previous year Nearly one-fourth of the total rail-
way stocks outstanding are the property Of railway
COMPANIES The amount of stock paying no dvi-
dends during the year was S,SI io55Z0 or oooo per
cent Of the total amount of stock The aggregate
amount paid In dividends was %L6l4,iio being an
increase for the year covered by the report of

equipment trust obligations. paying no interest was
s777 ZIG 40 or 1856 per of the total amount out
standing.
The total number of passengers carried by the
railways during the year was 56Os5S.2ll Passenger
mileage during the year 1882 $685. s9 and pas
.enger train mileage 3i75Ss,ssS The average jour
ney per passenger % 81 miles. and the average
number OF passengers per train for each mile run
was a. The number of tons of freight reported by
,he RAILWAYS as carried during the year was 7%-
bS47 Ton mileage was so,2il,O5o2o. Accepting
these figures. it appears that the average haul per
ION was I24 50 miles. The freight train mileage dur
ing the year was 4o2Sss. and the average num-
Der of tons per train for each mile run was 1918
tons
The gross earnings from operation OF railways
during the year ending June 30 1892 were Nln.+W,-
aIa The operating expenses $780, 1896. From
