BUS OPERATIONS

Long-HauI Companies Re.
port New Peak in Nets
Also for Nine Months.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

NEW YORK, November 19.-Long-
haul intercity bus companies have
reached an all-time high in operations
and net income, according to reports
for the first nine months Of 1885 to
be published in the November issue of
Bus Transportation.
An analysis by that publication of
the operations Of more than $4,000
buses covering half billion bus miles
and doing q gross business Of s1l6.-
600, 900 in the period covered indi-
cate that traffic volume became ex-
ceptionally good in the third quarter
Net income in the third quarter in
the face Of increasing taxes and prices
was the highest for any quarter in
the five years that the magazine has
been compiling quarterly statistics of
operating conditions.
Passenger revenues per bus mile also
are higher and are nearly per cent
with the third quarter showing 27.68
cents. as compared with 26.95 cents
in the 1884 quarter.
Passenger revenue per mile Of route
for the nine-month period rose to
$3.50, compared with $52l in 1884, a
gain Of 11.32 per cent, while each bus
owned took in 2,l03, or 81 .43l more
than in 1884. The length of haul per
passenger on intercity routes, accord
ing to the survey, is increasing steadily.
Local operations, both in cities and
in suburban areas, likewise indicate a
gain over last year for the nine
month period, notwithstanding that
the third quarter is the lowest traffic
period for these two classes of car
riers. City operations show a gain
of So per cent in net income per bus,
while operations of 1000 busses of
suburban carriers show a net income
gain of 1892 for each bus owned.

WHOLESALE INDEX
CLIMBS SLIGHTLY
Fertilizer Association Finds
Average at 1915 Against
1914 Week Ago.

There was a slight rise in the gen.
eral level of wholesale commodity
prices in the week ended November 16,
according to the index of the Ma
tional Fertilizer Association.
This index for the week stood at
79.5 per cent Of the 1868 average,
compared with 794 the preceding
week, 1916 a month ago and 75s a
year ago.
The index last week was 425 per
cent above the depression low point,
reached in the week of March 4, 1888,
and was 3.5 per cent above the low
point Of 1885.
OF the IA component groups Of the
index moved upward last week and
6 declined. The rise in cotton to the
12-cent level was largely responsible
for the increase in the textiles group
index, marking the tenth consecutive
weekly advance and raising it to the
highest level reached since September,
1884. A more than seasonal decline
in the supply Of butter resulted in a
sharp price rise, which was mainly re-
sponsible for a substantial upturn in
the fats and oils index
There was a further decline in the
price Of lard during the week.
The average price Of gasoline was
slightly higher last week, resulting in
rise in the fuels index
Grain prices were mixed, while the
trend OF feedstuffs was downward.
There was drop in cattle quotations,
but prices for hogs, sheep and lambs
were higher.
The result of these mixed trends
was small decline in the grains,
feeds and live stock group. Prices of
steel scrap and tin were somewhat
higher, but the changes were not
sufficiently large to affect the metals
index.

The blues are fast swimmers and

bay colt from the stable of Mrs. r. A.
Carreaud, today negotiated the oue
mile and sixteenth route of the Puri-
tan Handicap feature of the week end
program, in the fast time of ABB,
to set a new mark for the distance on
the Suffolk Downs oval.
Given smart ride by the veteran,
Luther, the rangy. striped-fsced son
of Time Maker held off the pace in
the early running, was turned loose
coming into the stretch and opened
daylight from that point in to hold
two-length lead at the wire.
Ebony Lady Sets Pace.
EBONY LADY had all the better of
the early going and was as much
as length and half to the good
going down the back panel. Hardware
furnished the early contention, but
did not have enough to hang on to
the pace set by the Pike horse. Lad
field, that finished second, was up
with the pace early, but could not
contend with the rush of the winner.
Ebony Lady faded in the front pan
el running and while she was length
to the rear of Ladfield she managed
to hold the show position by a neck
from the hard-driving Howard at the
wire.
The winner was favored at the win
dows and returned only $3.50. The
Vanderbilt entry, that ran out of the
money. was a coholder of the sec
ond choice in the price with Ebony
Lady that paid only $40 for the
show. Ladfield was 7-to-2 selection
and returned $3.50 for a place ticket.
