STATEMENTS OF TWO ROADS
Business OF the BurIinG ton and Rock Is
land for September.

business OF the Huntington and Rock Is
land for September.
Earnings of the Burlington rail
road system for the month of Sep
TENDER failed TO come up TO eXpecta-
tions. The statement issued Satur-
day shows small decrease in net
earnings. Gross earnings increased
about $500. 200, but this was offset by
q still larger increase in operating
expenses. Unless the Burlington can
make a better showing for the other
nine months of the present fiscal
year il will scarcely be able TO earn
the per cent interest guaranteed
OH the present capital stock by the
Great Northern and Northern Pacific
railroads. The latter then will be
called upon to make good the def
cheney.
The Chicago. Rock Island Il Pacific
railroad company's statement for the
month of September makes a much
better showing than that of the Bur-
lington. The gross earnings were
but little larger than those of the
Burlington. but the operating eX-
peuses were much smaller. and CON
sequentIy the net increase is slightly
above 100000. \ notable feature of
the Rock Island statement is that
most of the increase in gross earn
ings comes from the passenger
traffic.

Within few minutes of each other
two runaways occurred Monday even
ing, both of which narrowly escaped
doing serious injury to people on the
street. Simon Anderson, u farmer.
left his team standing in front of
Chase's grocery and they became
frightened. They dashed down Fiji
teenth street and the gates being
down they snapped one off and ran
into Fred Dunlap, of Rock Island,
wrecking his buggy, but kept on go
ing. Their headlong dash was stop
ped only when they ran into a tele-
phone post across Third avenue, at
the artesian well. One of the horses
was thrown back on his launches
from the concussion and the wagon
was badly wrecked. In crossing the
tracks locomotive grazed the
wagon. Hardly had the excitement
subsidized when one of Deere q Co.'S
teams. jumped over the fence around
the yard at Fourteenth street and
Fifth avenue, dragging the wagon
along, tore the fence away and
dashed up Fifth cvenuc. After cross
ing Fifteenth street they struck

hitched near the corner, and smash
ed the gear, but luckily the driver
was not i'm the rig. The horses were
stopped at LovejOy's meat market.
