We had nothing but coal down stream
and lumber upstream We have enough
offered us at the present time TO fill
our boats to their full capacity ON
each trip, but this is a mere fraction
of our freight and the poorest frac-
ton. A cement mill on the river
bank has offered ms 100000 tons per
annum. We have been offered 5o,-
600 tons OF coffee, lOOOOO tons Of
sugar. and other freight too varied 20

water transportation can be carried en-
at one-fifth the expense Of railroads,
therefore II IL not a question OF Sc
curing enough freight for our boats
but our being able TO haul what Is
offered US. as our rates will be much
cheaper at the same time leaving a
liberal margin for dividends to our
stockholders. Another feature OF
our development has been the study
OF the use-of railroads for distribut.
ing and collecting auxillaries. Il has
been publicly announced by a high
official OF the New York Central rail
road that they will do everything
they can TO cooperate with this line
and that they would run through
their docks az Cairo as much freight
for the southwest to be forwarded
by our line as was possible 10 con
centrate there. The Missouri Pacific
has made a similar announcement.
Mr.. =. r. Yoakum has publicly de-
clared his intention OF cooperating
with this line. and his friendship for

couragement In every way as to The
