Freight Revenues.


Facts of great interest to the in
vestor in railway securities are con-
tanned in an analysis compiled by the
Interstate Commerce Commission of
the character of the total freight ton
mage carried. 1t is surprising to
those who have not studied the mat
ter to learn that more than half of all
the freight carried by the railroads
of the United States comes under
the designation, products of mines. y
Bituminous coal makes over 2S per
cent of the total, and is the largest in
amount of any single commodity. That
is to say, If the use of soft coal were
ever abandoned the railroads would
lose more than one-quarter of all their
business expressed in tonnage.
Agriculture accounts for only lit
tie over 101h per cent of freight. The
farm product of which the most is
carried is wheat. but the proportion of
wheat for freight is less than 2 per
cent. Corn comes next to wheat
among the grains. Flour, meal and
other mill products make up over, 2
o per cent. Under the head of manu-
4 facturers and miscellaneous, which
accounts for little over 23 per cent,
automobiles and auto trucks are re-
sponsible for only seven-tenths of one
per cent The detailed classification is
too long to be given here, but it re-
vealS many other significant points of
value in estimating the service rail-
roads perform. 1t must not be for
gotten that individual roads do not
necessarily conform to these general
tiles, which apply to the carriers as a
whole.
On some of them the proportion
which coal shares TO all freight is
larger than the average; in some it is
much smaller. 1t is the same way
with agricultural products: some roads
carry huge quantities of grain; others
carry little or none. Nearly every
road, however, in it's annual report
shows from just what sources its
freight revenues are drawn, and the
conscientious investor can learn much
of value In the study of the figures.
