CONFIDENT THEY
HAVE MADE CASE
Railroad Presidents Believe Com
mission Will Grant
Increase.

Washing ton, D. c., October A.
President w. c.. Brown, OF the New
York Central lines, was on the witness
stand throughout the day in the inves-
tigatton being conducted by the Inter-
state Commerce Commission into tho
proposed advance in freight rates in
the Eastern trunk line territory. With
the conclusion of President Browns
testimony before adjournment this
evening, the case of the railroads prac.
tically was completed. although j. C.
Stewart. vice-president In charge OF
the operations of the Erie Railroad,
yet is to be heard.
Under the law 1t is incumbent upon
the railroads to make prima facie
case of the reasonableness of any pro-
posed general advances in rates con-
sidered by the commission. Through
the testimony of President James Nc
Crea, of the Pennsylvania system:
President Daniel Willard of the Balti-
more and Ohio. and President w. c..
Brown. of the New York Central lines,
coupled with the exhibits of statistics
and statements of operating officials
heretofore submitted In evidence. the
raiiroad officials express confidence
that they have established their case.
i'AoM II testimony TODAY
frankly set out the Industrial and
financial operations OF the lines under
ms direction. He was cross examined
particularly as to the financial opera
tons of the roads and adhered CLOSELY
to his view that they were entitled to
a 1alr return upon the Investments In
the properties-a return that would
enable them to meet the extraordinary
expenditures to which they had been
subjected in addition to maintenance
OF their dividend charges
The presidents of the three great
American railway systems maintain
that IT is not only the ambition OF tue
railroad officials. but the desire of tho
American travelling and shipping pub
lie, that the railroads of the, United
States should continue to be the eest
III the world In order to maintain
this admitted prestige for America. IT
is the opinion of President B-awn, as
expressed at the hearing. that tho
freight income of the roads should be
greater than it is at present. He
pointed out that the development of
great railway systems Is not merely a
matter OF national pride or personal
ambition. but pressing necessity upon
the country as part of Its Industrial
and financial progress.
