NEW YORK EXPERT
 REvIEWSSlTUATION IN FINANCIAL WORLD
Operating Expenses of New Haven More Favorable Than Expected.
eBarron Financial News.o

New York, Aug. 27.@The operating
 results. of the New Haven and, thir- teen of it's subsidiaries, showing net earnings after taxes amounting to $2.- S41,762, were more favorable than ex- pected, and therefore created good impression in financial circles. In the case of the subsidiaries, of course, the showing does not take account of div idends paid out, and in the case of the New Haven proper, it was after receipt of any dividends paid 1t by subsidiaries.
 The Boston Holding Go. is not in- cluded in the thirteen companies but the 1913-14 loss of SIP, 900 entafled (by | dividend guarantee) on the New IIa- ven is included in its charges. For New York, Westchesteri & Boston, the indicated surplus of $246, ,932 was before $954, GOO bond interest ehouldered by the New Haven. This guaranteed in terest payment was also included in the deductions which helped lower earnings Of New Haven proper to $268, ,662, or the small rate of 0149 per cent. on it's $1s0,0I7. 600 stock o'1tstand- ing in the hands of the public at the beginning of the past year.
 Taking into account New Haven's last dividend, a quarterly disburse- ment of 1-2 per cent. paid in the au- t1mn of 1913, the past year resulted in a deficit of g, ,oSs. .106 for the road
 So far the war has had no unfavor- able effect on the business of the Ma tional Biscuit Go, and sales this sum mer have been breaking all previous records. The jump in flour prices Is the only factor so far developed by the war which is apt to prove an in fuence adverse to the company. This can be understood when it is realized that the National Biscuit Go. con sumes between ], BOG. 900 and 100000 barrels of flour annually. An increase of $1 per barrel would take $1, GOO from net profits, this sum being equal to 5 per cent. on the common stock. ! In this case, however. it IS believed that the company is well stocked with flour purchased at prices very much lower than those now ruling
 In the fiscal year ended June 30, last, the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific railway earned a baIapce equivalent to little more than 1-2 Of one per cent. on its $75,0O0, GOO capital stock, against 5.41 per cent in 1913 and 5.13 per cent. in 1912. The surplus after charges was roughly s400,O0O, so that, after paying out some $1, 800, 900 in div idends. there was a deficit of about A 100000 for the year. Notwithstand- ing the latter, the property did better than was expected in many quarters at this time last year when the hot winds practically ruined the corn crop.
 President Nudge then . estimated that gross earnings would fall off 6 per cent. from 1913 and many critics asserted that the estimate was too conservative. As a matter of fact, gross earnings declined but slightly more than per cent. Not a few rail- roads lost as much from their gross in that year. The Rock Island was abIe to minimize the serious blow oc- casioned by the ruined corn crop by reductions in expenses. It managed to save almost $325.0oo in transportation costs.
