The Pennsylvania Railroad
BY GEORGE FITCH.
Author Of "At Good Old Siwash. !"

1.-THE Pennsylvania railroad is the
largest railroad system in the
Il United States. 1t operates about
$4,000 miles of railroad and earns
little less than S4OO, ZOO, 100000 a year on
them.
out Of this sum the Pennsylvania
made $4,000, 100000 profits This is
tidy sum and would seem to indicate
that owning stock in this railroad is
equivalent to having a large and pro-
lific gold mine in the back yard.
However, it has cost considerable
money to build the Pennsylvania Large
numbers Of mountains have been
bored through, sliced off or removed
throughout Pennsylvania and the land
scape has been greatly revised in order
TO make room for its four tracks. 1t
has also built a station in New YORK
which. is large enough to hold sum

Of capital stock and the system owes
about 100000, 100000 in bonds. Many

The PENNSYLVANIA line originated IN
the state which named it, but mas
burst forth and spread from New AorA
to the Mississippi river, capturing rail-
roads in all directions. 1t hauls more
! iron and coal than any other Amerl-
can road and earns twice as much
money It spent as much money TO
tunnel into New York and Brooklyn
as the government spent to help build
the Union Pacific and it has filled
Pennsylvania so full of rock ballasted
double tracked branch lines that there
isn't elbow room for any newcomer.

ers, both covered and uncovered, will

President Gwinner stated that this
step had been contemplated for some
time, and was brought about by the de-
sire of the club owners to give the
fans baseball at a cost within their
means. The lack OF interest in the
game this year is also accountable in
a measure for the reduction in prices.
