PENNSY GIVES

WASHINGTON. Sept 16.-After nearly
two years of protest, the Pennsylvania
Railroad has surrendered to the Govern
ment and agreed TO keep It's balance

items in the form required by the Inter-
state Commerce Commission.
The Significance Of this move Is that
the last grave obstacle TO the enforce

among ali the railroads has been re-
moved. The Pennsylvania Company re-
serves protest against the authority of
the commission. but agrees TO comply
with the order. This is regarded as tanta-
mount to complete victory, for it is
doubted II the protest will ever be pressed.
The Pennsylvania, in its attitude. rep-
resented all the various railroads which
were standing out against the authority
TO onfroce uniform plan Of bookkeop-
ing.
Heretofore railroads have made up theii
annual balance-sheets in various ways
and have kept their accounts to suit theii
own convenience A railroad with 100000.

Now. If q were desired to conceal tho
fact that 80 large a surplus was being
earned. that sum could be expended In

Under the plan OF the Commission such
