to stockholders of record September 10.
The announcement of the foregoing
dividends to be paid out of funds re-
cAived In final settlement with the
United States Railroad Administration
took the financial community by sur
prise. The common stock of the Nickel
Plate bounded quickly to 81 "a and closed
the day at 81 with a net gain Of 5 points
Due to the failure Of the road to reach

PENNSYLVANIA'S NET
FOR JULY $6,361 ,2S4
System's Savings Increase
During Ycar.

The Pennsylvania Railroad system
showed In July net operating income of
s6,s81.294 out of it's gross revenues of
s55.911.723, contrasted with sl,153.900
net and s67.497.iT2 gross in July, 1920
In the first seven months Of 1921 its net
earnings were s16,1o2,53s and It's gross
receipts $3s2,376,05s, against net oper-
ating deficit of s39.462.876 and gross
revenues Of s37S.595.99s In the corre-
spending 1920 period.
Beginning with July and the seven
months ended on July 81 the road
changed its method of charging it's rail-
way tax accruals in its monthly earn
ings statements. Previously twelfth
of It's estimated taxes for u year were
charged monthly. From now on its
taxes will be apportioned monthly In
ratio to monthly net revenue, based on
It's experience of the last six years.
The change appears through compari-
SON with the systems six months earn
ings statement and for the month and
period just reported makes it's net op-
Grating income considerably greater than
II would have been under the old ac-
counting practice. Thus net of s6.-
s7s.373 up to the close of June was re-
ported for the system, but on the new
basis its July net operating income is
$6.36t.2s4 and for the first seven months
Of 1921 IL Is s16.102.53s.
