Washington, Dec. 0.-The Interstate
Commerce commission has lust Issued
preliminary report on the income ana
expenditures of railways in the United
states Tor the year ending June 80,
1904, prepared by its statisticiaii.
The report contains the returns from
90 operating companies, whose reports
were filed on or before November 90,
1874, and covers the operations of the
l40,059.21 miles of line, or about IS
per cent Of the total operated mileage
In the United States.
The gross earnings from the opera

We're $2.O67 per mile of line; from
freight service, 81, 1872; total gross earn
ihgs, %6,35O; operating expenses, $4,302,
and net earnings, $2,O4S.
"A comparison Of these items with
similar results from the complete re-
port Of the previous years show n de-

The net earnings available for the

dends was $306,21O,744, as against
1850, IGG,601 for the same roads for the
previous year, n decrease of Si4. 555, S62.
1t Is probable that the decrease In net
earnings of all the railroads will exceed
S5O,OOO,OO0. The dividends paid were
S62,G44,061, us compared with SG6,i6l
10 Tor 1893. After the deduction of
dividends 1t is found that all of the
groups, except groups @ and 10, show
deficit, instead of Il surplus, from the
operation Of the year. the aggregate
amount of such deficit being S2S,032,-
G21. This fact shows that part of
the dividends We're either paid out of
the accumulated surplus of past years
or that their payment necessitated an
Increase In the current Indebtedness.
The report also shows that the av-
erage receipts per passenger per mile,

gardless Of the decrease in the traffic
there has been n decline in rates dur
Ing the year. the average receipts per

and the average receipts per ton per
