THE LAKE SHORE DEAL
THE NEW YORK CENTRAL THE GAIN
Err BY THE TRANSACTION.
The Pennsylvania VIII See that It. III.
& L. Obligations Are Met The
Sunday Excursion Problem.

The consolidation of the Lake Shore with
the New York Central has brought out
many interesting points which give evidence
that the Central will be benefited more
than the Lake Shore through such DEAL
The greater efficiency secured in the oper-
alton of the Lake Shore is strikingly shown
in some of the figures which have been
published. since the consolidation was eff
fected. For instance the Lake Shore re-
ceived 1.3 mills less than the New York
Central for each ton of freight hauled one
mile, but when the figures of freight earn
ings per mile are examined the roads show
up quite equally. How this is brought about
is easily understood by noting that the Lake
Shore carried fifty-two tons more to the
train hauled than did the New York Cen
trail, consequently its transportation eX-
penses were so much less that it's net profits
were 1.3 mills greater on each freight train
mile run, of which there were nearly IA ,0O0,-
600. In passenger train mile earnings the
advantage to the Lake Shore is more
marked. The net earning power of the
Lake Shore has been greatly enhanced by
the large sums of money expended in recent
years for Improvements designed to lessen
the cost of operation. The company has
spent several million dollars reducing
grades, Strengthening curves and laying
second track, and the Lake Shore road was
the first American line to institute the prac-
tice of charging extraordinary improve
ments against expenses instead of providing
money by issuing new bonds. The New
York Central. and Lake Shore consolidated
with their ramifications, make one of the
most extensive systems in the country. In
matter of mileage owned it will be exceeded
By number of other Western systems, but
only by the Pennsylvania system east of the
Mississippi In amount of traffic carried
over its lines revenue earned, operating ex-
penses, pay rolls, interest charges and div
idends it will rank above every other rail-
road in the country. The combined figures
of ali the Pennsylvania lines will be much
in excess of any which the new Vanderbilt
consolidation can exhibit, but comparisons
with the Pennsylvania would not show a
distinct single company. The New York
Central and Lake Shore now mbined
are but one railroad, and no railway in the
world, unless it be the London & North
western, of England will show so large a
revenue per mile operated as the two roads
now operated as one line from New York to
Chicago

The Transcontinenta1 Rate war.

The Western roads declare that in con-
seating to meet with the officials of the
Canadian Pacific in regard to the rate stu
alton, as suggested by General Passenger
Agents Roberts and Daniels, they have in
no manner changed their position in regard
TO the differentials demanded by the Ca
madam Pacific, or the reduced rates made
by that line. They will meet the rates made
by the Canadian Pacific, and amy further
reductions it may make will be met by them
without delay. In consenting to the confer
ence they say that they are merely stand
ing on the ground they have occupied since
the controversy with the Canadian Pacific
was started. Tfey have at all times been
willing to confer with the Canadian Pacific
with a view to settling the whole matter of
rates and differentials. but so far as any
change in their position is concerned it has
not been considered.
Messrs. Daniels and Roberts telegraphed
to the Western roads from Montreal after
trey had a conference with the Canadian
IN meeting in Chicago, stating that they
had, of their own motion, concluded to rec
ommend to all concerned that all rates that
had been disturbed in every direction be re-
stored to tariff, precedent to a meeting, and
that a conference of all interested lines
should then be held and see if an agree
puted questions should be arbitrated. There
was nothing in the message that gave the
slightest assurance as to whether the Ca
madam Pacific had assented to the propo-
sition or was committed in any sense to ar
bitration, and the conditions named by the
message, providing fer a restoration cf
rates as precedent to a meeting, were prac-
tically identical with the conditions which
the Canadian Pacific had previously made.
The Western roads and their Eastern con-
nection, the Grand Trunk, found them
selves unable to assent to the proposition of
restoring rates, but did signify their will
madam Pacific anywhere, no matter by
whom called, for the purpose of taking up
the whole question, and this is the position
which the Western lines take now.
Rate clerks of the Western roads were in
session at Chicago yesterday, preparing
new sheets showing the reductions in rates
made in consequence of the transconti-
mental rate war. The general passenger
agents have completed their arrangements
in the matter and have made their arrange
ments for applying the reductions through
all the available gateways.
In reply to the many published reports
regarding the action and wishes of the
Western roads in Chicago, Canadian Pa
cific officials at Montreal announce that
they will not change their present policy
unless all the old rates are restored and
they are again allowed the differential
which they were allowed up to the time
that the rate war began.

Katie Hackney began an action yesterday
in the Superior Court against George B..
Martin, dentist with offices in the Ste
venson building. The plaintiff is suing on
a note for $3.50, alleged to have been exc
cuted by the defendant in 1895. The note
was to bear 10 per cent. interest. The
plaintiff AYERS there has been but $751; so paid
by Martin up to the present time. She

mands judgment for $500.

In the annual statement Of the Pennsyl-
vania road, published recently, mention is
made of the colnpany's issuing $200O00OO of
new bonds, Sept. /, 1897, to be used as the
bonded Indebtedness of the company's West
ern lines became due. The report says:
Among the securities TO be provided for
through the sale referred to are the second
mortgage bonds of the st. Louis, Vandalia
& Terre Haute Railroad Company, matur-
ing May l, 1898, and amounting to $2,600,OO0
For the purpose of protecting your interests
in that road in which your system has a
controlling interest, these bonds will be pur-
chased and held until the relations between
the Terre Haute & Indianapolis Railroad
Company and its leased lines are further
adjusted. No definite result has yet been
reached in the litigation growing out of
those leases and the guarantees made by
the Terre Haute & Indianapolis Railroad
Company prior to your securing the con-
troll of that system. The property is still
in the hands of Mr.. " T. Malott as re-
ceiver, and has been faithfully and prudent
ly administered in the interest of its owners
ami creditors. But the current revenues of
the system are unable to meet it's obliga-
tions and provide for the renewals and bet
terments absolutely essential to the proper
maintenance of the property; and it would
be greatly to it's advantage if an equitab BILE
basis could be reached. satisfactory TO the
various interests involved. upon which its
liabilities could be brought more into accord
with its earning capacity.

War.

War is the statesman's game, the priests delight
The lawyers jest, the hired assassin's trade,
And those royal murders whose mean thrones
Are bought by crimes of treachery and gore,
The bread they eat, the staff which they lean,
Guards, CARRIED in blood-red livery, surround
Their palaces, participate the crimes
That force defends, and from a nations rage
Secure the crown. which all the curses reach,
That famine frenzy, woe and penury breathe,
These are hired braves who defend
The tyrants throne.
