which it is best fitted.

WORK OF CONGRESS
Continued from First Page

Though the rate per ton hauled in
1905 averaged fourteen more than in
1904, and though the tonnage in
creased S3 per cent, the road earned
$9S,C5S less than the year before
This road is most fayorably situated
for traffic. 1t has all the business it
can handle-the greater proportion in
solid trainloads from one terminus to
the other. 1t can haul its trains
loaded to the maximum in both di-
rections and every condition is favor
able to extremely low freight rates.
Yet the average rate per ton per mile
is 7.07 cents. How eXorbitant this is
can be seen by comparing it with the
average rate of 0766 cent for the en-
tire United States for the same year.
When the figures for 1906 are availa-
BILE, the comparison will be still more
pnfayorable to the government owned
road This bad showing for the Pan
anna road is made Notwithstanding
every effort on the part of the admin
istration to enforce economies. But
if no better results can be attained
when the entire attention of the
management is concentrated on a
single line with the most simple traf-
fic and working conditions, what
might be expected if the government
should take over all the lines in the
United States.
