REPORTS OF PORTLAND
RAILROADS
The report of the Portland Railroad
Co. has been received at the o1fics of the
RAILROAD commissioners. This report Ia of
one of the largest electric railroads in
Maine, and 1t was looked for with in.
terest. The Lewiston. Brunswick 81 hath
line doubtless operates as many miles of
track, but the traffic over the Portland
is the heaviest of any in Maine. TIE
reports show an immense profit from the
years operations and . surplus of over
800 OGO after six per cent dividend and
all interest has been paid Their psssen-
ger carvings were over six millions of
people.
With this report came that of the Port.

operate parks at the end of their lines
and this accounts for the tremendous
traffic.
The following are the reports:
