Net Earnings of Pennsy
System Show a Decrease
of $II,222.972 for 1918

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 2.-Net
earnings Of the Pennsylvania railroad
system last year were 81, 222, s72 less
than the year before, an average
monthly decrease Of nearly 81, 900, 600
according 10 the annual report just
issued. Gross earnings. however,
were the largest in the history of the
system, s17,s00 832 more than in the
previous year, which made the best
showing up to that time.
Expenses increased more than s29,-
600, 700. the increase being largely in
wages and in the repair Of food dam
ages incurred last spring on the lines
west of Pittsburgh.
The net earnings in 1919 were the
smallest In q decade. at least, about
100000 less than in 1911, when they
were somewhat below the earnings of
an ordinary year. It is not likely,
however, that the decrease will affect
the dividend rate.
The lines west of Pittsburgh had the
greater falling off, their portion of
the decrease being $s,022,655. Lines in
the East fell off IN net earnings
50, zoo. 316.
One ray Of hope is afforded from the
statement of earnings for December,
which shows an increase in net earn
ings on the lines east Of Pittsburgh
of SOB, ia over the previous Deem
berthe best showing IN several
months. This advantage, however. is
largely lost for the system, because
the lines west fell behind December,

Cotton Market

NEW YORK, Feb. 2.--Better cables
than expected, and reports that there
had been a considerable trade demand
for local contracts at the decline of
Saturday gave the cotton market
rather a better tone this morning.
The opening was steady at an ad-
vance of 2 to 6 points. and later active
months ruled about to Z points net
higher on covering and a scattering
demand from local bulls or reaction
lists. The buying was encouraged by
bullish early advices from the South,
claiming that February spot engage
rihents were unusually heavy and
there were also favorable reports
from the goods trade, but there was
enough realizing to hold the advance
in check around 1915 for May.
Scattering liquidation of March,
part of which was attributed to lead
ing spot interests, gave the market a
rather unsettled appearance during
the middle of the morning, and prices
reacted TO about Saturdays closing
figures. There was no change in the
character of the news, however. and
the market later steadied on con-
tinued covering, ruling about six or
seven points net higher at midday.
The market was very quiet during
the early afternoon but ruled steady
and about to 4 points net higher.

Grain Market

CHICAGO, Feb 2.-wheat showed
firmness today because of a reduction
OF the estimated surplus crop In AUS
tralia, and as a result of prospects
for a cold wave. Moreover, signs
pointed to a falling off in the United
States visible supply, and many
traders believed that rally was due
after a three days break. Prices
started the same as Saturday night
TO u up. and scored moderate gain
all around
Absence of snow covering in Ne
braska helped to sustain the market.
The close was firm, Is to y net higher.
Corn advanced rather sharply on
account of the outlook for wtntry
weather. Country offerings were
light. The opening, which was un-
changed to 1s@A higher, was followed
by a general upturn.
Some of the largest longs sold on
the advance and caused a reaction.
The close was steady, unchanged to
4 up. compared with Saturday night.
In oats the tendency was to harden
with other grain. Business, though,
did not have much volume.
Steadiness. more than strength,
characterized provisions. Support
was only fair, despite an advance at
the yards. First sales varied from
Ply lower to an equal gain, with later
prices inclined to keep within that
range.

Held in Bail on Charges of
ENLIGHTENMENT and Forgery

Herman Brown. Of 125 Washington
street, was committed to the Essex
county Jail in default of 1880 bail
by Judge Hahn today In the First
Criminal Court. on two complaints,
one charging forgery and the other
embezzlement.
Isadore Kinstler, of 202 Bloomfield
avenue, testified that on December
81, he had cashed check for
Brown for 500, with the name of
Alderman Mark L. Phillips, of the
Second ward. affixed to it. Later
Brown is alleged to have returned
with a similar check and Kinstler be-
came suspicious. Upon investigation
it was proved that the signature was
forged.
Alfred w. Whitney. of "a Oriental
street, connected with the Otis Eleva-
tor Company, testified that Brown
had eYnbezzled $40 from him on two
separate occasions through a BUSH
ness transaction in which Brown was
to procure a cheap diamond for him.
Whitney told of meeting Brown on
the street and when he heard the
latter's hard luck story gave him a
dollar. As they were about to part,
Brown thanked him and stated that
he would spend the money for food
for his family. Upon hearing this
Whitney took the one dollar bill away
and gave him two dollars.
A few days later he met Brown,
who asked him to lend him three
dollars more, and he did so. The
diamond transaction came up later.
The court fixed bail in the forgery
case at $1,000 and $500 on the en-
bezzlement charge.

operation. The road will be double
tracked from Danforth road, Madison
to the Ford estate, Morristown, and
will be completed as soon as possible
by the trolley company, the ]. G.
