MAKE THEIR ROADS PAY

The officials OF the New-York Central Railroad
nave recently been commenting upon the remark
able number OF representatives, OF English railways
and commercial organisations who have come 70

than a dozen delegations have visited the Grand
central station within the last ten days There
have been representatives Of English railways
EhsIlsh steel manufacturers. English woolIen man
uIactursrs and English trades unions. Almost the
nrst place that these delegations visit Is the Grand

operating officials from the London and South
western Railway visited Senator Depew in his Of

Portation methods. The spokesman of the partV
said; Senator, why is IT that Americans surpass
US in handling traffic and showing earnings?''
The reason" replied Senator Depew. is simple

to establish scrap heap You do not have the
courage 10 hold back fair portion OF your earnings

Last year nearly per cent Of our gross earnings
We're charged of 10 construction account You
take the owner OF big steel plant in this country
He may expend one day 100000 for a big machine.
Two years later some one invents another machine
that will do the work at a cost of 10 per cent
less The normal life OF the first machine is twenty
years, vet the American manufacturer takes IL out

In In England you pay out to your stockholders all
Sour earnings and save nothing for construction
expenses. When your equipment and your roadbed
In uOWn you issue new capital to pay for the
heeoSo new material IN many instances the ma
Ierial so acquired does not mean added earnings.
