Englandof Sir Lionel Garden, the Brit.

Grey, British secretary for foreign af-

"After thirty-six years of valuable
service, desired to recommend him
for one of the highest posts in South

Mexico, asked him last July to 90
there" Sir Edward said. "Sir Lionel
reluctantly consented, but he stated
that for private reasons he could not

Meanwhile, railroad rates have de-
creased during the last 20 years, pas
seqger traffic now pays 1892 cents
per mile, and freight traffic pays only
0.41 per ton per mile, as against
.eS9S per ton in 1892. This means that
ter the cost of a 2-cent stamp you can
ship ton OF freight nearly three
miles. There are other items which
Lave also increased the railroad S bur-
den OF expense. Safety appliances,
shorter hours and more crews, steel
cars, bigger locomotives, requiring
heavier rails and heavier bridges,
have added enormously TO the rail

ments have been made mostly by di-
version of dividends which might have
otherwise been paid to the stockhold-
ers. AS a consequence the per mile

urged that greater land values there
partly account for the greater capital

with New Zealand and South Wales,
where land is worth less than here,
and where no big cities make costly

wages OF their employees have been in
creased I70.S per cent during the 70
year period. In 1892 they employed
J60 people 10 each hundred miles OF
track. while in 1872 they required 695
people Even since l9U2 when it was
officially reported that the pay roll OIL
American railroads amounted 10 $G1t.-
wages more than double that figure.
while the number OF employees has
only increased from l.lAS.&l5 to
l.72S,000 which means Toe per cent

ployes. During these II years the
average pay OF employees has advanced
from S56S per year TO an average Of
nearly $500. In 1892 the wages paid
to employees amounted 10 1928 per
cent OF the gross revenue; today ii is

$4,000. 900 zoe OF gross income, or

rate that was paid in 1892. There has
also been an increase in the cost OF

owns these traffic lines which are the
very arteries through which the blood
of our commercial life must flow. If
their ownership were only in the
hands of the 100000 shareholders,
whose names are registered on the

average owner was the proprietor of
only one-third of a mile of track, but

alone held in 1906 railroad stocks and
bonds amounting to approximately
$S50,000,000, that the savings banks of
the country in 1909 held approximate
ly $685., 100000 of railroad securities,
and, according to the Comptroller Of

and national and state banks held
S6S0.000,000 of these securities, and

Let us frankly admit right here that
there is a good deal of excuse for pop
ular hostility to past railway manage
ment. We cannot soon forget what
some financiers have done in the past
to certain railroads. Even at this very

that more than half the stock of the

that. while piracy has attacked the
railroad world in some quarters, the
biggest part of the business has al
ways been in clean hands. Has any
