RAILROAD AND EXPRESS COM.
 PAN RELATIONS

Al least two ends have been found to the monstrous express graft now under investigation by the federal and state commissions The enormous profits of the companies have been in- docated by the huge dividends they have paid. but these payments have not disclosed the fact that an equal amount has been paid to the railroad companies for the prlvelege or using their lines for express business.
 An estimate made by the New York World of the profits on express bust ness gives these figures: Annual gross receipts of
