Il have never seen summer-excursion
business so heavy as this year" said
Chesapeake and Ohio man yesterday.
1--WE do not have more trains, but more
people 20 on each than usual. 1t is inva-
riably the case that we have to furnish
more cars than are originally chartered.
As the time to pull out of the station
draws near il is seen that the crowd Is
greater than the train Will carry, ana
more cars have TO be hitched on. think
this shows. among other things. that the
times are better, and people have more
money to spend"
A railroad man in conversation yes
terday commented upon the fact that
the operating expenses OF the Norfolk
and Western had been very greatly re-
duced within the past three years IL
was stated that during the past eleven
months the running expenses Of the road
were only 81 per cent. of the gross earn
ings. This is considered remarkably
cheap. However. the operating expenses
of the Chesapeake and Ohio are only
about 6 per cent. Of the gross receipts.
There is stated to be the best of reasons
for believing that the Danvile and West
ern railroad. running from Danville TO
Stuart, will be changed TO a broad-gauge
for at least a portion of the way. The
road is seventy-tive miles in length.
