The supreme court held that the
company did not violate the statute

it inhibit the company from charging

Good showing by B. and O.

1t is stated on good authority that
the b. & o. will close the year with a
surplus of over $l4, 200, 900. This is i'm
portant news, in view of the fact that
the bears have attempted to make cap
ital out of the decreased earnings of
tne B. & O. While it is true that the
road will show decrease in earnin gs
of over S7,000,0O0, nevertheless it will
compare very favorably with other
roads. The year 1907 showed decrease
in earnings on the part of all the trunk
line roads as well as on the part Of
minor system. Those which had moth.
ing to fall back upon were driven to
the wall. Others, however, were forti-
fled with strong surplus, SO that the
period of depression had no other eff
feet than mi Iimizing the earnings.
