The Railway Rate Increase.

The recent railway rate increase
which averages about 20 per cent. and
which applies only to freight traffic. has
called forth mixed comment. Of1cials
OF some OF the railways state that It will
hot he sufficient In their case to cover
the great increase of outlay Vccasioned
by the arbitrary wage increase. 1t Is
estimated that the wage Increase may
increase the expense bill OF all Canadian
roads by from $4,000. 900 to $4,000. 900
annually.
Canadian Pacific officers, on the other
hand. are reported as stating that the
freight rate increase is sufficient from
ee point of view of their company. Wall
Streets action in marking up the quota
TONS Of Canadian Pacific stock several
points Immediately after the rate in
crease was announced indicates that the
financial experts In New York consider
that there may be something over" for
T. P. r. shareholders after the wage in
ereases have been provided for.
There Is no doubt that a freight rate
increase just sufficient to cover the in
creased wage costs of the C. p. r. would
pc wholly inadequate for the other roads
which are not 30 well equipped nor so
lavorably situated in other respects. So
y was necessary to grant q rate increase
which would nearly. II not altogether,
cover the need, of the lesser systems.
even when by so doing the action prom
'sed to swell the Canadian Pacific sur
pIuses 1t Is TO be noted that there is no
special tax or other deduction applying
" Canadian Pacific's revenues under the
recent rate increase. II would have been
sosurd 10 impose such and the situa-
son now created makes rather a COM
phcated AFFAIR of the special taxation
