PASSENGER EARNINGS
Of n. P ON DECREASE

a feature of the Northern Pacific
railway company's report of revenue
and expenses issued yesterday is an
item of S1,935,06O decrease in the pas
senger revenue for the year ended
June 80, the fiscal year covered by the
statement. The freight revenue, how
ever, increased $500. 603.35 and the to-
tai operating expenses were reduced
$1,571,243.49.
The decrease in the passenger reve-
nue. is attributed by an official of the
road to The competition ON the west
end of the line, where the Chicago,
Milwaukee & Puget Sound has paral-
leled the Northern Pacific. The
freight earnings have held their own
in comparison with other western
roadsfi according to this official, where
the regular freight is concerned. Com
menting IN the earnings of the Great
Northern, which sometimes are used
as a comparison wit hthe Northern
Pacific, this official declared that tho
former roads increased income was
largely brought in by ore shipments,
which comprises approximately forty
per cent of that roads business.
