Cape Breton averages from 25' to 80
feet, and that its workable area. is es-
tirnateds to contain 1000, 100000 tons.
The reports point out that tho geo

coal fields relative to foreign markets,
puts Cape Breton in q position that

states that the proximity OF the Cape
Breton deposits to the sea board; and
the cheap water transportation gives

CONTROL OF CARRIERS.
Interstate Commerce Commission on
+. II. II. and Vanderbilt Holdings.

Washington, May > CSpeciaD unification
Of control of some of the Eastern railroads is
startlingly Illustrated by an interesting review
OF the situation in a publication just issued by
the Interstate Commerce Commission. After al
luding to the former competition between car
riers between the Mississippi River and various
Atlantic ports. which brought the export rate
on corn from the Mississippi to New-York down
to the phenomenal figure of Is cents, the COM
missioncrs say;
The most troublesome of these Eastern COM
petitors were lines serving Norfolk, Newport
News and Baltimore-the Baltimore and Ohio,
norfolk and western and the Chesapeake ana
Ohio The total amount of the outstanding cap
ital of the Baltimore and Ohio on June 30 last
about S135 100000 of which the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad Copnpany owned 40Dao0 and
the Pennsylvania Company S12,0o0GIS The
outstanding capital stock of the Norfolk and
Western was SS9.U00,o00. of which the Penn
sylvania Railroad Company owned S25S3OVD
and the Pennsylvania Company sc, 500 600 The
Ohio was approximatelv 500 100000, of which
the Pennsylvania Railroad Company owned
100000. the Pennsylvania Company S4,-
OlD.ooO, the Cleveland, Cincinnati. Chicago ana
St. Louis Railway Company, a Vanderbilt line,
SI,Jo0.0DO. and the New-York Central SJOO0OoO.
The Pennsylvania Railroad Company does not
therefore. absolute majority of the stock
of the Baltimore and Ohio or of the Norfolk
and Western, nor do the holdings of the Penn
sylvania lines and the Vanderbilt lines in the
Chesapeake and Ohio amount to quite major
ity of that stock. It has been suggested that
affiliated Individual holdings would make up
such majority in the several instances, and 1t
seems altogether improbable that these com
panies W ould have invested the large amounts
above indicated unless they had thereby been
assured of actual control But Of this there
is evidence before US: and laying that sug-
gestion entirely aside IT is still evident that the
stockholding in each is sufficient Tor q
practical control. L might not be possible per
manently TO foist upon these companies policy
detrimental to them and for the interest OF the
Pennsylvania and Vanderbilt lines, but 1t would
be possible to dictate any policy which was
fairly for the interest of all parties concerned;
and undoubtedly agreement touching the rates
be put in force and a general maintenance
Of those rates when published would be for such
interests.
What has been accomplished in the case Of the
companies named through stock ownership is
supposed to have been effected in the case OF
other lines participating in this traffic by uni
fication Of control through community Of inter
est and similar devices. The result is that com
petition is no longer acute. II could prooa Oily
be said with truth that these companies are Stlil
independent competitors, but the competition or
to-day is altogether different from that of four
years ago; 1t longer extends to the rate itself

total paid in certificates for 1s3O4 to S156o07
the number of certificates of all classes issued SO
