President G. G, Stevens says the
Chesapeake 4 Ohio Is not only
keeping even with the record OF
last year, but is,ii anything, crowd
ed a little bit ahead. Last year
was the largest In the history Of
the company, and it Is not every
road which can equal that years
record and beat II.
aAbout So per cent. OF our total
tonnage Is coal, coke and similar
commodities" said Mr.. Stevens.
sour tonnage in these classes OF
freight has kept up wonderfully
well. There has been no decrease
and / do not think there will be
any In the territory which w
serve. Ger traffic in manufactured
articles and II the intermediate
classes OF freight also keeps up,
earnings at the close OF the flsca
year will very likely be a littl'
ahead Of last years.
