The report Of the Atlantic, Gulf &
West Indies Steamship Lines for the
year ended December 81, 1914. shows
GENERATING revenue amounting TO
Sl7145,A53, decrease Of S402,S6S
compared with the previous year. Net
operating income was S2,444,627, and
other income brought the total surplus
before fixed charges up TO S2,854,329,
decrease Of S2,s52. Deductions of
S1,9lO,9s2 from this surplus left bal
ance Of S9i3,347, compared with 1885,
5l3 for 1918.
Henry R. Mallory, president OF the
company. says that the disastrous effect
of the European war was Immediately
felt in the operation of the steamship
lines, which also suffered from a con-
tinuancc of the unprecedented situation
prevailing in Mexico. Since the begin
ming Of the present year, Mr.. Mallory
says, shipments TO and from the South
have been moving more freely, but there
is no noticeable change in the business
with Mexico.

ROADS TO OFFSET
PANAMA RATES
Ask Commerce Commits
sion to Permit Cuts on
BaCk-Hauls from Coast.

Washington. April r. That trans
continental railroads propose to meet
competition via the Panama Canal by
rates that will divert freight to points
Just east Of Pacific Coast terminals Tor
distribution was made clear to-day IN
hearings before Interstate Commerce
Commissioner Clark.
Charles Donnelly, representing the
Great Northern and other transconti-
mental roads with terminals at North
Pacific Coast points. served notice OF
the carriers purpose.
"If the construction OF the Panama
Canal" he said, emphatically. has low
cred rates TO coast points 10 degree
that will make our Pacific Coast termi-
nails useless machinery so far as trans
continental traffic is concerned. we have
the right to make rates that will send
the freight to an intermediate point
for distribution. II rates to Seattle
prevent us from competing in the
transcontinental trade, we have right
TO make a rate that will send that
freight TO Spokane for distribution in
that competitive territory. And we
propose TO support that right before
any court or commission"
Mr.. Donnelly supported the railroads
proposal to cut the rates in back-haul
territory by reducing the terminal rate,
which forms a part of the back-haul
charge. Representatives Of San Fran
cisco. Tacoma, Portland, Seattle and
other seaport terminals opposed the
plan. declaring it was discrimination
against them because it would operate
to deprive them of the benefits of water
competition by lowering the rail rates
from the East to nearby interior points.
Representatives of Spokane and Sacrs-
mento supported the plan.

MERRILL C0RRECTS ERROR
Stuart Gibboney Not Repre-
sentative of N. Y. Reserve Bank

Referring to the hearing at Albany
last week before the Senate Committee
on Banks and Codes in regard to the
bills intended to confer trust company
powers on national banks, Edwin g..
Merrill, president Of the Trust Com
panies Association of the State Of New
York, announced yesterday that George
W. Morgan, counsel TO the association,
had acknowledged in letter TO Stuart
Gibboney the error in a statement
made bv him at the hearing that Mr..
Gibboney represented the local Federal
Reserve bank. Governor Strong had
denied the accuracy Of Mr.. Morgan's
statement.
Mr.. Morgan, however, sailed atten.
ton to the presence at the hearing OF
both Mr.. Gibboney, who is counsel to
the organization committee of the Fed
eral Reserve bank, and Leslie r. Palmer,
a director of the local institution, as
evidencing a distinct interest in the
pending bill on the part of some one
identified with the Federal Reserve

After iull Of few days from the

There was no new explanation forth

that purported to have originated IN
London "from one high up in official

our people mean 60 do what Is right,
and when they understand a question
their decision is usually correct. They
realize now that the meaning of the
word regulation has been changed
around and improperly defined by the
legislators. They realize that it is one
thing to regulate and another thing
to take over the business
Mr.. Kruttschnitt said he would favor
government ownership of the Western
Pacific, II for no other reason than
thai il would reveal how difficult it is
to nun a railroad proftably under cX-
isting laws. From his trip in California
he did not understand, however, that
Governor Johnson was taking the
proposition as seriously as has been
reported.
The head Of tho Southern Pacific
system also called attention TO the
campaign now being waged by the
railroads for the repeal of the full
crew laws. He said he noticed a gen
eral sentiment on the part of the pub
lie in favor of the railroads position.

BOMB WRECKS DRUGSTORE
Windows a Hundred Yards
Away Broken at Dawn.

Bottles we're blown from their shelves
and drugs ran together when a dyna-
mite bomb shattered the front of Vito
Marenda's drugstore, at 3l4 East
18th Street. at 2:30 o'clock yesterday
morning. Occupants of neighboring
houses rushed to the street and il took
the reserves from the East iO4th Street
station to handle them.
Patrolman Briggs was so close TO the
scene of the explosion he was knocked
off his feet. Windows were broken in
tenement houses a hundred yards
away. Marenda told the police he had
received a letter on February 10 de-
handing $1,000 In August, 1913, de-
mand for $1,000 led TO the arrest Of
Lorenzo Callairo by a detective work
ing in the drugstore as a clerk. Cal
lairo recently died IN Sing Sing. A
later threat caused Marends TO sit UP
one night with a rifle across his knees,
and Just as he dozed off a bomb was
exploded in his store.
