A Railroad Contrast.

For a great many years past the d.
rectors Of American roads have con-
sistently If pitilessly pursued a policy
which they conceived to be financially
sound and which is the very reverse Of
that adopted by railway directors in
this country. After providing for the
interest on the debt the first thought of
an American board is of the road itself
and its equipment Their last thought
is Of the shareholders Relentlessly dis
regarding the cries of the latter for
dividends, every cent Of earnings be-
yond the bond interest Is put into the
road and its rolling stock. Betterments
before dividends is the motto Of an
American railway president Precisely
the reverse, as every one knows, is the
policy Of English railway boards. Our
directors always divide up to the hilt,
and when they want money for the
road or extensions of It they issue
fresh capital. Which policy is justified
by the event2 American railway shares
have risen and will rise. British rail-
way snareS nave fallen ana VIII fall
