ONTARIO & WESTERN REPORT
Road Turns Decrease in Gross to An
Increase in Net.

A decrease in gross earnings OF the
New York, Ontario & Western Railway
Company is shown in the report just
issued for the fiscal year ending June
30. 1915. The 1915 figure was SS,926, ,94o,
against s9.251,570 in 1914. Net earn
ings increased from $2,l02,360 in 1914
to s2,141,44O for the year just ended.
The surplus for 1915 was S6l2,oOI, com
pared with $685. for the year be-
fore, and represents Loo per cent
earned on the S5S,113 ,9S3 capital stock,
against liza per cent earned on the
same stock last year.
The decrease in passenger earnings
last wear amounted to Sl62,962 and the
falling off in freight revenues 10
S22l. .702. The increase in net was
brought about through reduction in
operating expenses from $7,l49,2l0 TO
S6. 1856 ,450.

MAXWELL MOTOR co.
EARNINGS INCREASE
Surplus for Year Equal to 1S
p. c. on 1st Preferred Stock.

The second annual report of the Max
well Motor Company. covering opera
tions for the year ended July 81 last,
shows net earnings Of S2,3S7 $50, an in.
crease Of s9O7,5O9 over the previous
year. The total volume Of sales in
creased 90 per cent.
Net earnings for the year after de-
probation charges were s2,3o3,3l4, an
increase of s797,s47. This surplus was
equal to 1876 per cent on the sl2'-
279,322 first preferred stock outstand-
ing. against 1926 per cent earned for
the year ended July 81, 1914. The IN
dicated earnings on the sl0,l27,467 sec
ond preferred stock were in excess Of
70 per cent, and on the Sl2,775.o57 in
excess of per cent.
President Walter Z. Flanders. in the re-
port says that net working assets OF the
company at the close OF its second
fiascal year were approximately s7,-
10000, as compared with s5,s35,oOo
at the close of the first fiscal year. Cash
on hand was S2,652.62s, an increase
Of $3.50, 1886. Mr.. Flanders adds:
"Foreseeing that the demand for
Maxwell automobiles would exceed our
factory capacity, the manufacturing IA
eilities have been increased during the
year By the installation Of special ma
chinery designed 10 produce one model
Of automobile in large quantities at the
minimum cost That this increase was
necessary TO take care Of the demand
is indicated By the fact that the COM
pGny manufactured and sold In August,
1915, 52l7 automobiles as compared
with 2,i6l automobiles in August, 1914.
Shipments in September. 1915, will
nrohahly exceed those Of August. 1915"

Another Good Month for So. Pac.
For the second month of the current
fiscal year Southern Pacific did even
better than in July, with an increase
over 1914 in gross earnings Of Sl,535,-
500. The July gain was S1,330,2S4. The
increase for August, like that of the pre-
vious month, was due TO heavier pas
senger traffic, this item contributing
81 POI .282 10 the appreciation in total
revenues. Last months gain in net
earnings, after taxes, amounted TO ST.
242.0e2, or about 33 per cent, the ag-
gregate July and August increase being
S2.553.0 .054, OF approximately 80 per
cent Operating expenses last month
were only S2SS,032 greater than for the
same period year ago, the most strlk-
ing feature Of the advance being that
the small sum of S8l 843 more was
spent on sportation in spite Of the
heavy addition TO passenger trainc.
Since the refusal by the state commls-
sions to permit the railroads to curtall
revenue train operations in proportion
10 the falling off in travel, operating
expenses have for the last year or two
remained high, because non-revenue
producing trains could not be taken
of. Now that these trains are beng
filed. Southern Pacific is earning q
much larger gross without any addi-
tional outlay. The response made by
the stock 10 the August earnings state
mont was a net advance Of half a point

COTTON STEADY,
WITH SMALL GAIN
LiverpooIs Heavy Buying Sends
Market Five Points
Higher.

There was heavy realizing in the
cotton market yesterday. but offerings
were very well taken on comparative
" moderate reaction and prices rallied
in the late trading, with the close
steady at net advance of TO 8 points
The opening was more or less irregu-
lar, first prices being 7 points higher TO
2 points lower, but somewhat disap-
pointing cables appeared TO be Offset
by reports Of unsettled weather in the
Southwest. and prices very quickly
frmed up, with October selling at 1L2s
and January a. ll.S3 during the early
trading. This advance of about to
II points above Wednesdays closing
figures attracted increased offerings.
Liverpool was a heavy seller here on
the wider differences, while there was
more or less general realizing and more
or less selling for a reaction. Toward
noon offerings became still heavier ow-
ing 10 an easier turn in the stock mar
ket and rather vague rumors of hitch
in the international loan negotiations,
and a few stop orders were uncovered
on the break TO 1l.09c for October
and 11.6lc for January, or of about Z
to 13 points under Wednesdays closing
figures. A very great many contracts
were taken out OF the market on this
decline, however. and denials of the
loan rumors were followed by rallies
which carried the market back TO
slightly over the closing quotations of
the previous day.
There was little change in the gen.
eral character of the news from the
outh, practically all of the advices
received indicating continued nrmness
in the spot situation and relteratlng
the unfavorable prospects for the crop.
Many of the reports regarding the spot
situation indicate an active speculative
demand for spot cotton which, II IS
said, is being put into storage to hold
for still higher prices, and it is re-
ported that buyers are finding 1t diff
cult to secure high grade cotton in the
Southwest. There were also reports
during the day that domestic mills
were becoming uneasy as result
of an improved demand for goods and
the continued frmness of the spot mar
kets, with bulls predicting an improved
demand from this source in the event
Of any setback. Notwithstanding these
hullish advices as to spot and crop
conditions, however, there was a good
deal OF reactiOnary talk around the
ring, and il was said that great many
local commission houses are advising
their clients in the South and else
where to take profits or long cotton
owing to the increasing movement and
the rapidity of the advance. Iester-
day, however, offerings were we'll
enough absorbed to indicate the pres
ence of a substantial buying interest,
and in many instances recently sellers
for q reaction have come back into
the market at advances. Southern spot
markets, as officially reported, were un-
changed to 25 points higher, most Of
them being unchanged and sales were
rather smaller on the average.
