RUNNING A RAILROAD
NORTHERN PACIFIC IS
FIGURES CONVEY DEFINITE IDEA
OF GIGANTIC SCALE OF
OPERATION.

Many facts and figures of railway
oneration become, through familiarity
commonplace to railway men. To the
others they may be extremely inter-
esting. Some few of these that may
thus attract the attention of the unini-
tiated follow. The total number OF
miles run by all the Northern Pacific
passenger trains aggregated more
than 100000 miles; of freight and
mixed trains, 100000 miles. There
were about 10000 passengers carried
last year on the Northern Pacific rail-
way.
There We're 17,6OO,OO0 tons of freight
carried, the revenue therefrom
amounting to the munificent sum of
not quite Sk mills for each ton car
ried one mile When remuneration
figures range below 1 cent for any
unit of price or service it is difficult
for the ordinary mind to really grasp
the situation. The smallness or mea-
greness of return as here shown may
well cause reflection ON the part of
impartially- minded and thoughtful
persons.
Some Notable Expenditures.
AS against this 1T may be stated that
in addition to what has before been
enumerated under general mainte-
nance charges, there were expended by
the Northern Pacific for grade reduc-
tions and changes in the railway line,
more than 100000; for improved tun-
nels, $4,000; new bridges, trestles and
culverts, $354,OO0; heavier rails, $780,
O0O track fastenings and appurten-
ances, $505,00O; new ballast, 1857 900;
sidings and spur tracks, $312,000; ter
minal yards $4,000; automatic block
signals, $35S,000; new stations and
fixtures, $9S2,0OO; shops, engine houses,
ETC., $350,000, besides numerous other
heavy similar expenditures.
At the close of the fiscal year 1915
the road owned 1851 locomotives of
various classes, nearly 1900 passen-
ger cars, and $4,000 freight cars, the
latter having capacity for 100000.
Material for the Imagination
The facts and figures here repre-
sented furnish the groundwork for a
partial and wholesome conception of
what running railway really means.

the facts given, ones imagination may
picture the difficulties and hardships,

upon such operation without strain

ANACONDA CO. PAYS
100000 DIVIDEND
LARGEST SINGLE DISBURSEMENT
THAT HAS BEEN MADE BY
MINING COMPANY.

Anaconda came up to expectation by
the declaration of a quarterly dividend
of $3.50 per share, thus increasing the
annual rate from 81 to Sc. This divi-
dend will call for the payment of
nearly $3,5OO,000, probably the largest
single distribution ever me de to the
public by mining corporation, ac-
cording to Hayden Stone.
While the company would probably
have been able to make tkis increase
with the present price of copper, with
it's former plants the virtual recon-
struction of these plans will make for
far greater stability in the dividend
rate in the future.
A good deal has been written of the
work that has been accomplished at
the Washoe plant. Summarized briefly,
it consists of increasing the concen-
traitor from 10000 to 10000 tons capac-
! ity; of the installation of flot2tion
process; of the reconstruction of eight
reverberatory furnaces, doing away
practically altogether with the use of
blast furnaces of a material increase
in the capacity of the converter plant
and the construction of o 2,000-to /
teaching plant to handle the old tall
ings.
FIotaton Biggest Success.
The installation of the flotatiOn sys-
tenn has been the most radical step
and has effected the greatest improve
ment. The result has been that the
tailings loss has been reduced from
around IL pounds of copper to about
two pounds. 1t is estimated by COM
petent authority that as applied to the
Icompany's 1913 production the saving
would have amounted to 100000
pounds of copper, 100000 ounces sill
yer and 5000 ounces gold, comprising
a total value of about $7,500,O0O. In
less than one year, therefore, the cost
of these changes, which has been be-
tween $4,000, 900 and $6,000,000, should
be fully earned by additional saving
The net result of these improvements
will be that the Anaconda will be able
to increase its pl reduction to upwards
of 800, 100000 pounds of col per ycal
and reduce the cost from an avarage OF
around 10\cents to probably less thar
81s cents a pound.
Zinc to Rival Copper.
While a good deal has been written
of the above improvements in it's cop,
per reduction plants, much less has
been said of the company's approach.
ing construction of a $2,000,000 zinc re-
duction plant All of Butte ores carry
more or less zinc, some of them 81
much as to make 1t very difficult tt
recover the copper contents because
hitherto the presence of zinc has beer
distinct drawback. Now the treat
ment of these high zinc -bearing ore
has been solved-a very great metal
lurgical victory.
The new plant should produce in tn
vicinity of 7O,0OO,0OO pounds of zinc
year. 1t Is rather interesting to not
that could this have been in operation
at the present period of high price,
spelter, the earnings from this alon
! would have added about SO per shar
to Anaconda's earnings.
