Some Figures.

DuElnS the lHTtt HOIlIS VI uIS
August and September the total operat-
ing revenues of these roads amounted
to 1899, 100000; for the panic months
of October, November and December
the total revenue was s3T6, 100000. The
freight revenues of the systems named
We're, for the first quarter, $264,000,O00
and for the second quarter, S259, OOO,oUO
The freight revenues for November
were larger than those for July or Sep
tember These systems during the
last six months of 1907 received from
passenger and freight revenues grand
total of S775, 900, which is S54,0O0,O0O
more than they received for the same
period in the preceding year. 1906, ana
their net income from operation IN
1907 was S14,O00,000 more than in 1905.
These figures certainly do indicate that,
either owing to legislation or to the
panic. the railroads OF the country as
whole have been put lin financial
jeopardy.
ct is true that during 1907 there was
great increase in operating eXpehes,
owing to general increase in wages;
but, allowing for such increase, the
larger volume of traffic and greater
revenue derived therefrom yielded a
larger net return to the railroads.
Little Effect in West.
"a study of these figures shows that
the, panic, so far as 1t affected the
railroads. extended but slightly be-
yond Chicago toward the West. If we
take the transcontinental roads reach
ing to the Pacific Coast, we find that
every one of them increased its gross
operating revenues during the last half
of the year 1907. Beginning with the
Great Northern, which is near the Ca
madam border, and coming down the
Pacific Coast to the Mexican border,
thus including the Northern Pacific,
the Southern Pacific and the Santa Fe
system, each one increased its total
operating revenues in the last half of
1907 over those revenues for the last
half Of 1906, while the net income was
in some cases increased and in others
slightly decreased, the net income from
operation In each OF these lines being.
Santa Fe $13,000.O00, Northern Pacific
s1S,OOO0OO. Great Northern $4,000
900 and Southern Pacific $41,00O,00o
for the six months.
Taking freight revenues alone, tile
Santa I1e system, for instance shows
larger freight revenues In December
than In July or September; and the
Southern Pacific,s December freight
revenues We're but q few thousand dol
lars less in that month than in any
other month excepting October and
November. We find, therefore, no
alarming condition presented as to the
trans-continental lines.
