r. MANUEL AMADOR, PRESIDENT OF PANAMA,

SIS, 100000 capital, is a Rock Island
Frisco concern and that the railroad
may handle for itself the express bust
ness passing over its lines on the ex-
piration of its existing contracts. has
caused something of sensation in
railway and express company circles.
In adopting this step the Rock
Island interests are merely following
the methods for higher dividends and
distribution of surDluses. It was not
realized how far-reaching the conse-
quences would be. In many instances
the demands for higher dividends
were acceded to without a contest but
serve funds of these companies and
the great profits from their operations
caused establishment among railway
interests. who are now considering the
possibility of obtaining themselves the
benefits to be derived from the ex-
press carried over their lines.
The express enterprises operated by
the Great Northern and Northern Pa
cific roads have proved extremely
Could lines have also been productive
of paying revenue. Il is now reported,
although not officially admitted. that
the st Paul may organize a $4,000
900 corporation. to take charge of its
express business OH the expiration of
its contract with the United States Elk
press company on January 1. 1908.
What change will occur in the situa-
ton remains to be seen. The express
companies will either be called upon
to pay a higher percentage on the re-
pewal of their contracts or the rail-
road lines may take over this branch
