railroads were soon taxed beyond the
capacity Of the scant equipment with
the economical administrations of the
preceding years. In railway practice
there cnme tendency toward heavier
and heavier equipment and toward
ress had been made In the direction
OF heavyweight pnlents and high speed
the necessity fora heavier roadbed
became apparent In placing the Or
expenditures for rebuilding roadbeds
the railroads contributed most I'M
portant part to the general prosperity
of the time, Their own activities re-
acted upon the situation, and further
increased their traffic, ana that increase
again made necessary further eXpcndi-
lures by the railroads on bettermcntS
and improvements.
The circle continued to reyolve in
this way In q wider and wider area,
became necessary. Terminate which
had been adequate, and HAL even beeu
planned with what seemed good fore
sight became utterly insufficient, ana
forced upon the roads. That expendi-
ture, although absolutely necessary for
the continuance OF business upon the
scale that business had grown to-. real
ly added nothing to the production OF
income, ut least directly and immedl-
ately.
We are only now beginning to rocog-
nize that the railway system or the
United States has, In the lost9eight or
nine years been in large measure re-
built:
Tho New York nnancler then dis
cussed the conditions In the financial
world. when the railroads undertook
to secure money for complete rehnbili-
out the increasing unfavornble condi-
ticns in the markets In Which they
must float their obligations.
AS to Period Ahead.
Tho speaker reviewed at some length
the history OF national development,
particularly It's relations to railroads,
tho attitude of the national and State
governments towards railroads, ana the
evil practices into which railroad man
ayers fell, and then OF the future said;
try as yet has shown only scant SIGNS
here and there of declining activity,
The crop outlook Is not altogether sat-
isfactory. but, considering the advanced
prices and the great stores left over
from other harvests, there Is nothing
in thai situation to bring real disaster,
Tho mercantile situation seems healthy,
Labor Is still fully employed at the
Banking position Is sound. But, in spite
OF oil this, In spite OF hnlf years
