MEXICAN RAILWAYS.

Washington, June ia chaps
ter on Mexican railway, compiled
from Information derived from Va
'rious sources, forms very interest
lug features of the report of the sta
tISticiah Of the department. of agrir
culture for June. The number Of
miles of railway constructed in Mex
leo is put down at 1851. Their
present condition is referred to in
the recent report on the effect Of
the depreciation Of silver in Mexico
by Mr.. Lionel Garden, Briti,h con-
rul general at the capital. lie says
that the bonded Indebtedness Of the
Mex can Central and Mexican Ma
tionAl railways alone, without tax
n'g into consideration that of the
others, is greater than The total for
eign debt of the republic. As this
represents gold Investment, while
the earnings of The railways are all
in silver d"ll-rs, the Depreciation
Of silver very seriously atfcc:s the
interests Of the bondIoIders.
The depreciation of silver is also
felt by the railway company not On
ly in diminution oftheir net earn-
ings, when reduced to gold for re
mission sbr DAD, but also in the in
creased cost of that pant of their ex
pendiInres which has TO be paid Ut
gold prices, and which is estimated
on most Of. the lines to constitute
about one third of the gross expen
diIurc. By comparing the returns
Of these two railways for the year
1892 which th,se of 1889, the con
sui says there is AD increase in gross
earnings of IS per cent and in net
earnings of 333 per cent, both in
Mexican currency.
Concerning the railway scross
he lsthmus to Tehuantepec The re
ports say that the concession for its
is now held by Edward
McMurIock of London. The pecu
iAlify of this concession is TINT in
stead Of passing into the hands of
he government at the expiration
Of. ninety nine years from a certain
liked date like other railway con
.essions in Mexico, it brcumcs tho
of the government as soon
Is completed. The line will bg
in few months. DAILY
ibOut twenty mics i'll the center Of
be lsthmus remains to be construct
ID. When the important works at
JuatzaeoaIuos are finished, which
ire now under way at an estimated
:uSt of s4,3OO,O0O, it is expected
hat within fonr years sesgoing veg
eis of large class will be able to an
:hor in the port, and that the mari
inu trade of the United States and
iexico now carried OH by wsy OF
'analna will be saved.
