TO MAINTAIN LINES
By the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, May 28.-Current
railroad earnings statement show the
carriers have been spending more
money to maintain their properties.
The ratio of maintenance charges to
total revenues increased considerably
for some roads That accounts in
part for lower net operating incomes
reported by several railroads for April,
despite gains in gross income. Rail-
road maintenance outlay was pared to
the bone during 1882 and 1888 and
