ROADS DEFEND MAIL RATES
Criticise Hitchcock Method
of Figuring Out Profits.

The committee on railway mail pay
which represents 26S lines operated in the
country, came out yesterday with Wig
orous protest against the brand OF arith-
mctic employed by Postmaster General
Hitchcock In arriving at his decision that
the United States paid 100000 more than
was necessary for its mail service for the
year 1903
The main point OF the committees OBJ
lection lies in the assertion that the Post
master General made no provision in his
computation for a return upon the capital
invested in railway property. The COM
mltter's statement follows:
The Postmaster General assumed that
the railways would be properly compen-
stated if they received a sum equal 10
IN" operating expenses and taxes az
tributablc To the carriage or the mails
plus per cent Of the sum OF those GA "a.
urnSe4 and taxes. The calculation by
which he obtained the sum which he as
suWcd would have been proper compen-
Satiou for the single month covered by
His investigation was extremely SIM
pie. He estimated the operating expenses
and taxes OF the mail service for one
month Al S2616.5g3 10 lie took per cent
Of that sum. or SlGO5@ q. and thus ar
rived at the conclusion that S2S37,c93 81
would represent the just compensation or
the railroads.
The figures given by the Interstate
COUmcrCe Commission show that the
Postmaster Generals proposal would
leave tho roads with less than one-third
of the sum necessary 90 meet interest
charges which must be paid In order 70
prevent foreclosures OF mortgages. II IS,
I'm fact, much less than rentals which
must be paid II the existing systems are
not 10 be broken UP, and would allow moth
ing for dividends, permanent improve
mcnts or surplus Such a thing is not
a theory Of compensation. II Is a theory
OF oppression and Of destruction.
