WABASH IS IMPROVING.
Receiver Reports Gains for
Year, Despite Rate Cuts.

+. 4 Delano, receiver Of the Wabash
Railroad. has made a report on the con
dition OF that property in which he states
that during the year ended June 30, 1873
the excess OF earnings over actual fixed
charges amounted to ,350.c00. This. how
ever. takes no account OF defaulted inter-
est on the companys first refunding and
extension per cent bonds and the de-
faulted A. per cent notes. An amount in
excess OF this surplus over actual
charges. says Mr.. Delano, has been APP
propristed for additions and betterments
TO property, 90. that for the year the
final result will show a small deficit.
Mr.. pelano expects tha3 the Wabash
will show gross revenues this year equal
To those of last. which established new
high record despite the effect Of rate
reductions in the territory West. which
cost the company approximately 10000 10
500, O0o This rate has been put into
effect as far as local state rates are con-
cerned. but the railroads have az YET
made no attempt TO adjust their inter
state rates to meet the local conditions
According to Mr.. DelanO, when these
Interstate adjustments are made there Is
every prospect that rate chaos In the ter
ritory west OF the Mississippi will result
Regarding plans for the reorganization OF
the Wabash Mr.. Delano says:
Plans for reorganizing the property
are moving slowly but surely. All de-
tails are being cleaned up as far as II is
possible To go at present All the nu-
merous requisite legal motions arc beins
gone through, and headway IS BENZ
made The property Is not Yet fuzzy
equipped although the proceeds OF $liOp'-
001 receivers certificates have been avail
able. Further Improvements VIII De
needed. and reorganization will Logically
provide for this. Last year the iaclliues
Of the company were Increased about "
pcr cent. but traffic increased 12 per cent.
This shows up the needs OF the property
inasmuch as its facilities, prior TO the
recent expenditures. were far below re-
oulrements for securing and carrying the
traffic I'm the highly competitive territory
traversed by the Wabash. There Is no
better traffic territory in the country. nor
IL there more competitive territory. ADJ
itv 10 meet this competition depends on
bringing the property requirements up 10
a par with those OF its competitors
Between 81. Louis and Kansas city the
Wabash has as good a route as any road
Between ST. Louis and Chicago II is close

is now a poor third. but could be made
