THE INTERSTATE COMMERCE COMMISSIONERS
report, recently issued, shows that in the year
ended June S0th, 1902, the railway companies
of the United States employed 1,1S9,3l5 men,
or about 5.94 per mile of road, and 46 more per
mile than were employed in the previous year.
At present, with the observed rate of increase,
the total number of railway employees is about
1907 900, and the families directly supported
aggregate about 100000 persons As great
numbers of men besides are supported by the
industries-furnaces, rolling mills and car
shops-which furnish supplies to the railways,
it is perhaps not exceeding moderation to say
that over 100000 people are dependent on the
railways for a living. The Railway Age COM
pares the average of 5.94 railway employees in
1908 with the average of 4.41 in 1895 and SIS in
1901. Hard times and scant business accounted
for the figure for 1895, while larger traffic de-
manded the number employed in the other
years. If hard times should bring back the
average of All per mile this would mean the
dismissal of 900 men, or heavy reduction
of wages.

ONE OF the most violent storms ever expert.
enced in Baltimore visited that city about noon
last Sunday. 1t was in the nature of cyclone
and in the short space of about five minutes
wrecked many homes. The destruction
wrought was in the northeastern part of the
city in the section bounded by Broadway on
the west, Chase street ON the north, Ashland
avenue oD the south and Wolfe street on the
east. Over two hundred houses were unroofed
and otherwise damaged and many families
rendered entirely homeless. The estimated
loss is between two and three hundred thous-
and dollars. The heavy rain that followed the
wind drenched everything in the houses and
flooded the cellars causing much loss in this
way. Fortunately no lives were lost and no
one was seriously hurt During the progress
of the storm over four inches of rain fell.

purpose to weld the Wabash roads into one
grand system before long that will reach from
Ogden, Utah, anda Ell Paso, at the Mexican
border, on the west, through Kansas City, st.
Louis, Pittsburg, to Baltimore. We intend to
make the latter city our seaport on the Allan
tic. 1t is a magnificent one, but has been
neglected. We propose to develop itand make
it a great port. Wedo not intend to go to New
York. There is more eclat in trunk line into
the metropolis. of course, but it is too expen-
sive as a freight-exporting terminal. Balti-
more is the best port on the Atlantic for the
exporting of such commodities as will make
up our tonnage-coal, grain and packing house
products" Mr.. Goulds system includes the
Western Maryland and Tidewater Railroad.
