Rock Island Figures.
An official monthly analysis of the
Rock Islands earnings for July shows
that the average rate. both freight and
passenger, decreased in that month suf-
fciently TO amount to $396.0OO.
II Rock Island had received the same
rates on the greater business handled
this year, it would have overcome the
sol. 600 increased cost of conducting
transportation and had nearly 500, 600
over.
The increase in total expenses il July
was $4S5, 900. of which maintenance OF
way was sSS.OOO and equipment s15O, 900
and transportation sol, 900.
Passenger decreases, the official analy-
sis shows, were due to the recent decI-
sions reducing fares from cents to z
cents a mile in Minnesota, Missouri,
Oklahoma and Arkansas. These deci-
sions also caused freight reductions.
These affected no month earlier than
July.
Rock Island. therefore, handled a very
d much larger traffic in July and received
very little more for it The same condi-
, tions applied in August, and during the
current month.
The decisions affect other roads oper-
ating in Minnesota. Missouri, Oklahoma,
and Arkansas. This fact explains in
part the July record of more than one
big railway system.
John J. Mitchell, president of the Illi-
nois Savings and Trust Company, of Chi
cago, also director of the Rock Island
Company, declares that all rumor OF re-
ceivership is nonsense.
