DECREASE IN RAILWAY PROFITS

tho conclusion that any further in

transportation rates would threaten
the financial soundnoss of the rail
roads In support of this contention
iigures are taken giving comparison
between the Vanderbilt lines Tor the
first six months OF 1902 and of 1903
They show that the Increase in
gross earnings OF the Vanderbilt group
of six roads for this period was $lO

clearly shown that small decrease

these figures and the conclusion drawn
from them would seem particularly
significant
