THE PEE GEE INCIDENT,
Commissioner Mayfleld Wants to Have IN,
Company's Charter Forfeited.
TEXAS RAILROAD SEEKS TO ISSUE BONDS
The southern Kansas Line win Es.
'""iish General Offices in Texas.
Railroad Prosperity.

Austin, Texas. July 25.--Railroad Com
missioner Mayfeld returned this morning
from an investigation OF the report tina,
the Federal receivers OF the Texarkana
and Fort Smith (the Pee Gee road railroad
had moved the general offices from Texar-
kama to Kansas City. He will file his re-
port with the governor very shortly, re-
porting that said office has been removed
and asking the governor to take some ac.
ZION looking TO the forfeiture OF the char
ter as result of this violation of the
Texas law requiring the road to maintain
general offices in the State. The gov
ernor Will in all probability refer the mat
ter back to the attorney general The gen
eral impression in state circles here Is
that the State has no case in this instance,
as the road is In the hands of Federal
courts at present and not amenable 10
State laws. The commission tackled this
proposition some time ago, but did nothing
for this reason Commissioner Mayheld,
however. saw fit to push the matter fur
Their, and 1t now remains to be seen what
Will result from his persistency.

RAILROAD PROSPERITY.
Increased Earnings and Work oi
Construction SinEulnrly Active.

Increased Earnings and Work of
Construction Singulnrly Active.
Gross earnings of sixty railroads the
second week of this month were s7,1S7 ,O6O,
an increase of $1,026,S95, or 1867 per cent,
over the earnings of the same roads in
the corresponding week of last year. In
the first week of this month the earnings
of seventy roads were S7,9413OS an in
crease OF $1,075,090, or 1886 per cent
These figures indicate that the business
of the railways this month will exceed
that Of June, which was phenomenal. That
month the Chicago, Milwaukee and St.
Paul made the best record, its earnings
showing u gain of almost S650000. The
New York Central gained $560,0OO, the
Northern Pacific 100000, the Great North
er 100000, the Southern s277OOO, the
Louisville and Nashville $252,000, the Can
adian Pacific 900, the Norfolk and
Western SILL 900 and the Missouri Pacific
$203, 900 These are the only roads which
had gains Of over 5000, 600 each, but there
were eight with gains of over 100000
each. The percentage of gain on some of
the smaller roads, like the Chicago aud
Eastern Illinois, was as large as that OF
the big systems.
1t is many years since the general out
look was as bright as it is today. In spite
of the fact that the comparisons are now
made with the favorable times of 1898,
earnings are making extraordinary show
ings, especially on the Western and gran
GER roads. The crop prospects, while ir-
regular, are excellent, and there is every
ground for expecting a tremendous grain
movement this fall.
The work of construction of new lines
is being pushed all over the country, with
an activity which the United States has not
seen since 1890. Roadbeds are in better
condition than they have been since before
the panic of 1898. and equipment is being
enlarged and improved on scale that is
rapidly making up for the economics of the
years of hard times. In every way the
railway outlook is almost unpreceder,rdly
bright.
