READING REPORTS
LESS EARNINGS
Statistics Show Where Losses
Figure; Freight Business
Improving

Unusually large receipts by the
Philadelphia and Reading Coal and
Iron Company alone saved the Read
ing companies from sustaining a rec
ord downfall in earnings for the year
ended December 81, 1917, according
to their annual statements to be re-
leased to the public to-day.
AS it was the Reading group. suf-
fered loss in surplus of $5,352,252
in the combined earning sheet, COM
pared with the previous year, or
S19.932 143 as against $25, 5,264,395.
The surplus account of the Phila-
delphia and Reading Coal and Iron
Company amounted to s5,436,633,
compared with S2,46S,790 for 1916.
The Reading Company, the holding
unit of the trio. showed S9,7S0,242,
against S9.543,lS6. The Philadelphia
and Reading Railway Company's
surplus amounted to Sk715,26S, COM
pared with S13.257.419
Where Losses Figure
The loss suffered by the railway
entity indicates the common condi
.tion suffered by the carriers, of large
gross earnings being more than Off
set by leaping gains in operating eN-
penses. The railways gross operat-
ing revenue amounted to S66, ,S31.39S,
against $50. .452,S69 for 1916. Oper-
ating expenses. however. were sac
500. .2SS. against SS4,S79,45S for the
previous year.
The unprecedented demand for
coal and at prices fixed by the gov
ernment. considered exceptionally
fair by the operators, permitted the
Reading Coal and Iron Company to
show an operating profit for the year
of S6.5S7 $50. For 1916 this profit
was S3.099.7jJ.
The total production of anthracite
coal from lands owned. leased or
controlled was 12.S1S,706 tons, COM
pared with 11,241, ,224 tons in 1917,
an increase of .577,4S2 tons. During
the year the company mined 11,5lI,-
904 tons, opposed to 1O,006, ,6SS. 1t
sold 11,729,672 tons, compared with
11,135,267 tons in 1917.
Freight Business
The Importance of the coal traffic
to the receipts OF. the railway is in
stanced by the division of freight
hauled. This demonstrates that out
of the total gross receipts of $685.
S31,39S, coal freight accounted for
S27957,122, gain of 100000 over
1916. Merchandise. freight was $26,-
1886 On that basis coal traffic
amounted to virtually - per cent. OF
income from all sources.
In view of the nationwide cry for
more equipment, the Reading fareG
poorly in increasing locomotives and
ears. The report shows the total num-
Der of locomotives as l,0O6, q gain
Of only fifteen during the year The
total freight car equipment amount
ed to fl.26g cars. a. gain of l.40:.
This failure to increase equipment is
explained in the report of the Read
ing Company as due to the war and
tu priority orders issued by the gov
rTumgnt.

ALL DISORDERLY
HOUSES TO CLOSE

tContinued From First Pagc.l
lice Wetzel for a conference and a
quiet but thorough cleanup of the
city began. Proprietresses of disor-
derly houses that have heretofore
been run quietly have been called
to the Mayors office and in unequivo-
cal language warned to shut up
their houses.
To Continue Work
The vice cleanup will continue, the
Mayor said, until the city is CLOSED
up as tight as a drum" The Mayor
said that if necessary. money from
the fund for the apprehension of
criminals will be devoted to securing
outside help, as the members of the
local force are well known by dis
orderly characters to secure convic-
ting evidence against keepers of dis
orderly houses.
The plan followed by the Mayor,
of calling the proprietors to the exc
cutive office and ordering them to
close, rather than run the risk to
convict on the slight amount of evil
dence the police possess, was follow
ed, the Mayor said, because of the
urgent need for immediate measures.
The method will continue until the
city is cleaned up. The Mayor will
devote the energies of the entire po-
lice department to Kidding the town
of vice, he said.
with the present agitation in
Philadelphia, many of the disorder
~ characters there will make their
escape to other places. They will
consider Harrisburg a neutral har-
bor. / will see that they are not al
lowed to get a foothold here" the
Mayor said this morning.
The places closed in North Seventh
street were probably the oldest es-
tablished in the city and have been
operating discreetly for years. Inn
mediate arrests will follow the re-
appearance in the city of any of their
operators according to- the plan OF
the Mayor.
