two lines as the Tonopah & Tidewater
railroad. The Ely & Goldneld will

Southern Pacific published its an
nual report to shareholders a few days
ago covering the fiscal year ended
June 30 last showing a loss of 50, 2,755,-
900 in gross income, compared with
1908 but a decrease of $9,02S,00 in
operating expenses, making net for
the year larger by $6.273.0O0. An in
crease of $1,27S,000 in other income
more than offsets the gain in fixed
charges enabling the company to re-
port a surplus applicable to dividends
of $26.S79.000. or a gain of $4,000 900
over 1908. That surplus was equal to
a fraction over 10 per cent on the out
standing common stock after Z per
