Earnings Of Michigan Railroads

In accordance with statute the var
ious railroads of the state have filed
with the Michigan Railroad Commits
sion report of their earnings for Janu-
airy, February and March, 1905, and
the figures for the several roads are
given below.
Two facts stand out prominently in
connection with these figures. They
serve 10 show forcibly the deep cut
which was made in the revenues of
common carriers the early months Of
the year by the financial depression.
The principal steam roads with one ex-
ception, the Chicago a. North Western,
show a decrease in their gross freight
earnings for the months referred 10 in
1908 as compared with the same months
in 1907. this percentage Of decrease
running as high as twenty and thirty
per cent
The figures again vindicate the posi-
ton Of those who argued that the new
Passenger Rate Law would not injur-
iously eject the passenger revenues Of
the companies. for, while many Of the
roads show decrease in passenger earn
ings than in freight earnings and may
fairly be attributed TO the financial de-
preston. which naturally would effect
both passenger and freight depart
ments
ON the eight roads In the Lower
Peninsula affected by the Rate Law
the total decrease in freight earnings
was 81. 248. 567 10, or 1913 per cent
The total decrease In passenger earn
ings on the same roads was Sl20, $50. %.
