dependent, There Has Been Con-
tinued Growth Of Every Branch OF
Business-Share of Praise Due lo-
cal Force.

Figures gathered yesterday show
that the recent increases in the gross
and net earnings Of the Chesapeake
Il Ohio Railway Company have re-
suited to considerable extent from
the enormous increase in the ship
ments OF coal from this port during
the past four CT five months
Basing the figures upon the total
amount of coal dumped at the coal
docks here and not upon the total
amount received IN the local railway
yards, the gross revenue of the COM
mines 10 this city in July was about
S579, $50. This is an increase of about
$140,3S5 ever the gross earnings OF
the company for hauling the amount
OF coal DUMPED over the docks in July,
1908. The total amount of coal dump
ed here last July was 100000 tons.
whereas the dumpings in July of last
year aggregated only sos, l3S. an in
crease this year of almost 100000
June was the banner month in the
coal dumping business at this port
and the freightage received by the
company on the amount of coal dump
ed in June was acJut s59i, 1853. The
freightage on the amount dumped in
June. 1908, was about s466,551. Thus
the increase in the gross earnings for
June of this year over June of last
year was about si2i,602
Record Increase in May.
The largest single monthly increase
in the gross earnings as based upon
the actual dumpings at the docks was
in May The freigbtage on the total
dumpings for that month was about
$579,573, an increase OF $237,7SS over
, she freightage on the total amount
Of coal dumped in May, 1908. The in
crease in revenue fer March of this
year was about sl66,35S over that
in March. 1908. the freightage on the
dumpings last March amounting to
about S551 800 as against s3S5.Q32 on
the dump!ngs for March. 1908.
The total increase In the gross
t<tl uluSo VI TIT. uAAOuht u Jumping" a.,
for March, May. June and July. of this
year. is about s669.133 as compared
with the total revenue received on
hauling the coal dumped in March.
May, June and July. 1908. The
freightage on the amount of coal
dumped in the four months this year
was about s2,50I.476. while that on
the coal dumped in the four months
OF 1908 was only about $1.s32,S4S.
Big Increase for Year
During the year Of 1908, the total
of the dumpings of coal at the local
docks was about 3.st0.114 tons and
the freightage received On this
amount OF coal by the railway COM
pany was about si.i4O.939. Estimated
upon the average of fhe dUmp'ngs
for the seven months of the present
year. the total output CT coal from
this port in 1909 will be something
like 1900 600 tons. the freightsge on
which will aggregate about s5.esf.OOo.
This would be an increase Of approxi-
mateIy sl.523.0s1 over the total
freightage received in 1908.

yard each month than is dumped over
the coal docks and there is always a
large reserve supply Of coal ON the
yard. Fer instance, in the month OF
June about 100000 tons OF coal was
hauled from the mines here. whereas
only 416.3O5 tons was dumped. so Che
actual gross revenue Of the company
on the coal hauled in June was some
thing like $671,OO0. The same was
the case in Jnly, the receipts OF coal
here being much larger than the
dumpings and the freightage was.
therefore. larger than the freightage
on the actual dumpings for the month.
Net Earnings Larger.
Ii has long been an established TACT
that the railway companies make
more net revenue in comparison to the
gross receipts ON hauling coal than On
hauling any other kind OF freght.
That being the case the net
earnings Cf the company out
of the g:Jss earnings on the
coal hauled here were larger than
they would have been had the same
amount OF gross earnings been re-
ceived fer hauling general freight
The earnings OF the road nave III
creased along other lines as well as
Ia the one department of coal hauling.
The increase in che passenger rates
has brought the gross earnings TO d
higher figure than formerly.

Increase Export Business.

The company is also doing bigger
business in hauling coaStwlSe anu
foreign freight to and from this port
than il has in. several years and 1t
is learned from very reliable source
that this branch OF the companys
business, particularly the export anu
import freight business, is tc be IN
creased. New equipment is beng pur-
chased by the company and several
hundred box cars are now being punt.
For several months now there mas
been a steady increase in the amount
of export and import freight received
here. 1t has not been particularly
large during any one month ana Is
still rather small in comparison 10

Newport News ranked among the

Much Credit Due Local Force.
Railroad men attribute much of the
increase of the business of the COM
pany to the new management. Since
the Hawley syndicate acquired the
property, the gross and net earnings
have shown a substantial increase
each month and the stock has risen
higher and higher. However, praise
and credit is due the officials CT the
company and the men here who nan
die the coal at this port. The iac.h-
ties for handling coal here have not
been increased within more than
year and yet an average OF oo'eVo
tons more coal is being dumped here
each month than in previous years
Daily, weekly and monthly coal dump
ings records have been smashed anu
resmashed so many times this year
that local people cease to wonder at
the enormous increases in the coal
output.
That this year should be the ban
ner year for the coal trade al 'hiS
port is particularly gratifying to the
railway officials here and the peopie
of the city generally, for 1t had peeh
predicted that the completion OF lhe
yirginian Railway Company's great piei
at Sewalrs Point would cause a great
falling off in the coal trade here. Inc
pier has been completed and in opera
ton several months now and Insteau
of decreasing, the output Of coal here
is increasing steadily and this month
promised to see another new mcnthiy
coal dumping record established
