hold their meetings and have their
headquarters. He also calls atten-
ton to the proposed plan to transfer

DECREASE IN EARNINGS
Pennsylvania Railway Company Re-
ports Upon the Effect of the
2-Cent Fare Law.

Philadelphia. Dec. 12.-Referring to
the operation of the 2-cent rate law
passed by the Pennsylvania legislature
the following statement has been issued
by the Pennsylvania railroad:
can analysis of the earnings of the
Pennsylvania railroad for October. the
first month of the operation of the ,
cent fare law, shows that the new law
has caused a large decrease in gross
revenue and a still greater decrease in
net earnings of the lines of the company
within the state.
in October, 1907, lines In Pennsyl-
vania show a decrease of S64,000 while
the lines in the Pennsylvania system
outside of Pennsylvania show an in
crease of S per cent. This same per-
centage of increase applied to state
lines would show an increase of $l40,-
900 instead of a decrease Of $64, 000 as
above.
This decrease in revenue is absolute,
and has not been offset in any manner
by increased travel stimulated by the
reduction in the rate per mile.
THE figures stated cover the loss in
gross earnings only. The decrease in
net revenue, however. has been still
greater on account of the increased cost
of operation due to advanced prices in
wages and cost of maintenance"

MUCH INTEREST EXCITED.
California Seacoast Cities All Want
Visit From Fleet.

Washington, Dec. 12.-CalifOrnia's in
terest in the coming to her shores of the
Atlantic battleship feet is evidenced by
the number of requests which are being
received at the navy department from
the seacoast cities that the ships tarry
for a time, so that the people may have
an opportunity TO see them. No plans
for the sailing of the vessels after leav-
ing Magdalena bay, except, of course,
that they will go to San Francisco, have
been made at the navy department, and
this statement is sent in response TO all
inquiries asking for a visit from the
ships. If practica bic, however, it is
probable the desires of the coast cities
i'm California will be complied with, in
which event the feet may stop at San
Diego. and at the port Of Los Angeles;
at Santa Barbara and Monterey.
Senator Flint is making an effort to
have Admiral Evans make stop at
San Pedro bay, Santa Monica bay and
at Redondo Beach, all near Los Ange-
les, instead of at but one of these places
as the admiral has already promised
him to do.
