U. S. Leads World in Mileage
and the Growth Of Railroads

Washington, Jan I8. The United
States leads the world both in the pres
ent mileage and in the recent growth
of its railways, This is shown in the

merlt OF commerce and labor
It points out that of the total railway
mileage Of the world, aggregating il
1904, $4,000 miles, there were sfI,o74
miles iii the United States. The
growth of the railroads in the United
States has been very rapid, beginning
In 1885 with 200 miles, the number
steadily grew and in the decade Of 1866:
1875 il doubled and then rapidly came
up to the present number which repre-
scnts an outlay Of Sri ,666, ,ooo,ooo osil

CHAMBERLAIN WON OUT
WITH FLYING COL LORS

London, Jan IS.-The most pronir-
ent feature of yesterdays election re-
turns is the wholly unexpected stand
made by Birmingham. Not only were
all of Joseph Chamberlain's seven can
didates returned but Mr.. Chamberlain
himself secured a majority of 5000,
while the majority of the others averag-
ed 5000.
Even allowing that liberal candidates
were not very strong, as seats were
practically uncontested at the last gen
eral election, and though liberal organi-
zation was not as good as in other parts
of the country, the results at Birtning-
ham are Of the highest importance. They
prove the groundlessness of liberal con-
tention that this general election has kill
ed fiscal agitation for generation to
come Besides showing unabated con-
fidence of Birmingham in Mr.. Cham
berlain the results there go also to con-
firm what already had been noticed in
isolated contests. that candidates who
openly professed protection leanings
had good support and in some eases
were victorious.
The outcome at Birmingham affords
striking contrast. While Mr.. Balfour
stands discredited as a leader. with his
supporters all swallowed up and himself
angrily criticised from his own side,
Mr.. Chamberlain issued from the con-
test with flying colors. His courage
| TO large extent justifes him to per-
severe in his agitation, and he is in a
position to argue that il was Mr.. Bal
four's timidity which lost the campaign.
l5S. sons dg8 VIZ r:lists
ron the protection side fad predicted
some such result, and it is now limited
that the party must in the future look
toward Birmingham for hope and guild
ance.
| 1t is too late for the results at Bir-
ningham to have any great effect on
the campaign as a whole, London has
gone distinctly liberal, no less than
twelve seats showing liberal gains. The
members already elected are distributed
| as follows: Liberals, I67; unionists, 7.3;
laborites, 81; nationalists. SO. OF q
London seats polled 10 were won By
liberals, IL Of them being net gains.
