One of the evidences, perhaps the
greatest Of the necessity for the gen
eral curtaiImeut of expenses on the
Pennsylvania Railroad, says the
Evening Item, Of Sudbury, is manifest
i'm the diminished traffic that has been
noticed during the last few months.
The Northern Central railway between
sunbury aUd Harris ,urg is fair ex-
ample to cite aud it would be reason
ably safe to take it for an average Of
their whole system. During the year
1898 there were i'm round numbers 81,
900 less freigct cars passed given
point on that line than the year pre-
vious, and hat means over 400 less
freighy trains were hauled over chat
road than the year before, which
shows serious fall oil in busin So
Their force of employees was based on
business that is usual in prosperous
Tunes, and when the depression struck
the country the railroads We're among
the first to feel the blow.
A great deal Of uhou-hIiess criticism
has been INDUCED inon account OF the
reductions Of time made by the
Pennsylvania company bu. when the
iacJs are known it will become ap-
parent to every one that it was dire
necessity and not the pleasure Of the
officials that caused the reductions.
The same thing is being eSperien 3ed
by All other railroads, as the depressed
condition extends to all corners of the
country and is largely responsible for a
number OF companies going into the
the hands Of the receivers.
