A REPORT ON RAILROADS,
Statement of the Legislative Com
mittee Submitted.
WORK OF COMMISSION,
Criticism of Report .of Minority of a
Former Committee-Free Ac-
cess to Books.

Madison, Wis. Jan. 17.-[Spccia. /
The commission, consisting of the at
torney general, the secretary of state and
railroad commissioner, appointed by the
last Legislature to investigate the rail
roads of the state, has made its report.
The report says that every courtesy was
shown the commission by the railway
officials and that there was no evidence
of any attempt on the part of the com
panleS to evade their share OF the taxa
tion by Justification of their earnings or
to conceal any of their business affairs.
Errors in Minority Report.
The greater part of the report is taken
up with review of the minority report
of the special railroad committee of the
Legislature made two years ago. The
report shows a number of alleged errors
and Inconsistencies in that report and
gives tables comparing the statistics Civ
en in that report and the facts gathered
by the commission. The only difference
is that in regard to the earnings of the
different companies in Illinois. After
crlticising the minority report of two
years ago the report goes into Il dcscrir-
ton of the methods pursued by this com
mission.
The roads investigated by the commits
Saut Ste Marie, the Illinois Central, the
Green Bay X Western, the Eastern Rail
way of Minnesota, the Wisconsin Cen
trail. the Northern Pacific. the Chicago.
burlington * Northern. the Chicago X
North-W Western and the Chicago, Mllwau-
kee X ST. Paul. The report says that
to fully investigate the earnings of amy
of the large companies for one month
would require about 2lo clerks Under
these circumstances the utmost that
could be done was to test the books.
The earnings of tn" roads are appor~
toned among states, the report says. on
a mileage basis, the earnings on a given
shipment being divided among the states
through which the shipment passes. ac-
cording to the number of miles in each
state covered in transit. This system re
suited in far greater earnings for each
mile in Illinois than in the other states.
This is explained by the commission on
the ground that nearly all the lines CON
yerging toward Chicago, after entering
Illinois, join trunk lines which leaves
only few miles of branch lines to re
ducc the average earnings of the trunk
lines Illinois is more densely populated.
and this, the report says, makes the
freight and passenger traffic greater
there than i'll other states, especially
when added to the suburban travel Of
Chicago. The third reason given by the
commission for the greater earnings in
Illinois is that as travel increases in vol
ume it approaches the central point, Chi

Lively Runaway This Morning.

Lively Runaway This Morning.
About IL O'Clock this morning jose
de Luna, Of Ranches de Albuquerque,
drove his team up TO the platform OF
Stamm's warehouse to unload some pro.
duce. While busy at work some freight
cars were backed down on the track In
the rear Of them, humping pretty noisely.
The noise frightened the team and they
started of on dead run along the side
walk towards Berry's drug store and
almost ran into the store, striking the
door post and throwing the horse down
on the walk, when they wers caught and
held. Clerk Christianson, who was do.
ing some lettering on the walk, had u
narrow escape from being run over.
While this was going on Mr.. Stamm's
heavy double team. that WAS securely
hitched alongside the sidewalk. became
frigh .ened. broke loose. and bolted north
on First street, turning on Railroad
avenue, thence on Second street until
they reached Marquette avenue, when
they were stopped by Archie Waldis.
During the rua several narrow escapes
Of pedestrians and vehicles occurred, the
closest being 4. X. Sturges' phaston,
which was standing in front Of the hotel.
When all was over the damage was
found to % almost nothing, for II looked
for awhile that smash up and possibly
some one injured was inevitable.
