RAILWAYS DIFFER
ON CUTS IN FARES
B. & O. Reports Increased
RevenueS-NeW Haven
Not Optimistic.
Ey the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, July 16-Two large
Eastern railroads today took opposite
stands on the merits of the new 2
cent-a-mile passenger rate
Baltimore g. Ohio. which had IA
vored the policy of cheaper trans
portation costs. announced its passen-
ger revenues in June showed an esti-
mated gain of IS per cent over the
same month last year.
Showing less enthusiasm for the ex-
pertinent, trustees of the New Haven
Railroad, one of the largest passenger
carriers In the Eastern territory, de-
clared that adoption of the reduced
tariff was marked by "retardation"
of the previous rise in passenger
revenues.
Gain May Be Repeated.
The new rate became effective June
2 in Eastern territory. Baltimore &
Ohio officials, expressing qualification
over the results, said 1t looked as if
the June gain would be repeated in
July. For the first five months the
IOdO y pdSoSellBeI ICNelueS were III
per cent above the like period last
year.
The New Haven trustees tempered
their estimate of the fare cut re-
suits with the observation that the
estimated loss of revenue was sub
stantially less than anticipated"
s15o,eo0 Shortage Estimated.
They figured that New Haven'S June
passenger revenues were about $780,
900 short Of what they would have
been If the rate had remained at the
old level Of SO cents a mile. This
assumed continuance of the 10 per
cent passenger revenue gain shown
q May.
Other leading carriers in the East
said they had no definite estimates
yet on June passenger business, but
expected to report before the end of
the month.

TT is apparent that only relatively
