Reports Of All Roads In State Now on
File With Executive couneiI-EIeven
Bic Roads Show Decrease in Net
Earnings Of $743,o72-Prosperity At
feets Different Roads Differently.

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines,. April 2s.-Iowa rail-
roads did business last year of nearly
$7S,00O,000; but made less money than
they did even last year when their pro-
fit account showed a big falling off
Neither last year nor the year before
was there any substantial increase in
the total of assessment, the increase
last year being only $4,000. This year
the assessment may be reduced.
Reports of practically all the rail-
roads are now on file with the execu-
tive council. Figures for eleven of the
big roads have been footed UP. These
roads comprise all but 337 of the 1874
miles Of road in Iowa, SO that the fig
ures show substantially the totals for
the state.
These eleven roads showed. on Iowa
business alone gross earnings OF $1b,-
701.s65; expenses, $61,S14,O1S; earnings,
S14. SS7 ,644.
AS compared with last year this
showed an increase in gross receipts of
$6,339,1 increase in expenses. ST.
0s2.236; decrease in net earnings, $743.-

The gross earnings of the eleven
roads mentioned was for the past year
amounted to over $500, 900 more than
the gross earnings for all the roads
the year before Before the executive
council there will probably be some
tail explaining why it is that with such
an increase of revenue the net earnings

Earnings and Profits.
A little study of the eleven roads
mentioned will also raise some ques-
lions as to why prosperity affects diff
ferent roads differently. For instance.
the Northwestern with $1.300,000 gain
in business. decreased profits $449,0O0;
the Rock Island with $1.900,000 gain
decreased profits $553.0eO; the Mil
waukee with 100000 gain decreased
profits $1,417,000. But the Burlington
with only 100000 gain in business in
creased profits $1,063.000: the Great
Western with Only 100000 gain in
creased profits $7s1.000 and the Iowa
Central with 100000 gain increased
profits $175,O00.
The Wabash last year had loss Of
$51.440 on Iowa business as against a
profit Of $9S,4S5 tile year before, vet it
did more business. The Great North
ern lost $4,000 the year before on Iowa
business and boosted the loss to $4,000
