Philadelphia name leads all the
rest in one honor roll. More people
are recorded as visitors at museums
in that city than in any other, the
number being 100000 as against l.
100000 for New York. Furthermore,
old Independence Hall is the most
visited place in the country. Its total
last year was 950,00O. So far so
good, maybe. But when it is added
that the Metropolitan museum of art
in New York comes next to Independ-
ence Hall with total of $4,000, we
find that an examination nearer home
raises doubts. In the report of the
art institute of Chicago for the year
ending last June it is said that the
total number of visitors to the gal
leries, including students counted
once day, was more than million
visitors, 925,607; students, 154,62S;

RAILROAD RATES AND RAIL
ROAD OWNERSHIP.

Howard Elliott, chairman of the
board of directors of the New York,
New Haven and Hartford railroad, in
an address which he has just deliver
ed at Boston, said:
"The Boston and Maine has suffer-
ed a decrease of 81 1,221 900 in net re-
turns during the first four months of
the present fiscal year. Unless this
can be wiped out in the remaining
eight months the company will have
failed to earn though to pay its obli-
cations"
The number of shareholders of the
Boston and Maine in 1912 was placed
at S,105. A large percentage of these
shareholders were women and the in
vestments generally were not specu-
lative but savings investments.
The number of shareholders in the
Pennsylvania exceeds $4,000, and so
as we look further afield we find that
there is "A great body of these invest
ors and not merely small group of
magnates and millionaires whose for
tunes are involved in the business of
the railroads. Furthermore, there is
an enormous issue of bonds in addi-
tion to the stock. Here again the
holders are not the magnates alone.
There is another great body of saw
ings investors. Some of them have
come forward with their first saw
ings to buy single bond. The trust
funds of estates and of philanthropic
institutions have gone into the same
account. Given such condition as
Mr.. Elliott describes for the Boston
and Maine and there would be an i'm
mense shrinkage in the value of
stocks, and the underlying securities
would be affected. The magnates
would suffer, but they would not feel
the pinch to the same degree as the
small investors and those who had
the care of trust funds.
Now, this should not decide the
question of the proposed advance in
rates. That should be determined fin
ally by the business showing of the
roads, by the actual facts that are
revealed and proper consideration
of all the testimony. There are in
terestsd witnesses on both sides and
