WHAT THE RAILROADS
DO WITH THEIR INCOME
WHY THEY ARE COCSIDERED THE
GREAT BUSINESS BAROMETER
OF THE NATION
Ia contemplating the crisis which con
front the railroad at the present time,
and which-was briefly explained In laat
week's article, . It Is Important for the
reader to realise that the railroads and
the public face each other under radically
changed condition today from those
which prevailed a few years ago. The
abuses and scandals which have been
aired before tha Interstate Commerce
commission during recent months were
perpetrated for the most part under the
old regime of a doxen or eo year ago,
and can never be repeated under the
condition which now prevail. On the
one hand, the Interstate Commerce rim
mission and the different states, carter
through their public utility commission
or legislature, say what rates the rail
road shall charge for service. In addi
tion to thi,' a proposal ia now pending
In congress to give the government the
right to . Investigate all new interstate
securities before they can be placed upon
the market, while similar authority I al
ready boU'g exercised within the state
by the different publlo utility commis
sions. That mans that the laat veatlge
ot oontrol over (heir f tnancea wtll have
bean taken away from the railroad and
that henceforth their fate will lie abso
lutely in the hollow ot the people' hands.
In thla connection, we wish to again re
mind, tha reader that hundreds of honest
railroad official throughout the country
men who have managed their properties
without breath . of scandal or public
criticism ehould not be condemned be
cause of the misdeeds of the few. With
an aroused, public- conscience on tha one
hand and scores ot railroad official
throughout the country alheerely and
actively co-operating with the different
publlo authorities on the other, wo can
safely let bygone b bygone wipe the
slate, end, with a square deal for the
people, the Investor and the railroads
alike, "start over again."
The President's Anxiety.
In last week' artlcl w quoted a por
tion of President Wilson's recent reply
t a group f eastern railroad executixee.
That the president haa become profoundly
concerned over the present crista which
confront the transportation companies
Is once more made atrlklngly apparent In
hi letter concerning th Inauguration of
the new banking system to Secretary
McAdoo a few day ago. In which he
aid:
'The railroad of the country are al
most a much affected (by the war), not
so much' because their business 1 cur
tailed aa! because their credit I called
In queatlon by doubt a to their earning
capacity. Tlwre la no other interest so
central to th buslnesa welfare of tha
country a this. No doubt. In the light
of th new day, with It new understand
ings, the problem of th railroads will
also be met and dealt with In a aplttt ot
candor and justice."
' Like utterance have com from t cores
of other prominent public men and finan
cier during th laat few week men who
re' above making a selfish plea for any
lrtvate or corporate interest and whoue
ole desire I that American business
shgli. emerge from the present precarious
situation . without disaster. Under these
circumstance It 1 the merest folly for
any cltisen to treat th present crisis
lightly or flippantly for we are paaalng
through a period In which the financial
resources of every nation In the world
will be tested as never before.
Where, Railroad Receipts Go.
Ill order that, the reader may realize
what a tremendous factor the railroad
re In the every day business lire of the
nation and what they mean to It pros
perltri we wish to anaryse briefly what
becomes of an. average year's railroad
income. Just a th idee, ha prevailed
In the muida of many that tha railroads
are owned by a few rich men. ao tha
thought haa also found deep root that
they collect nillllona of dollare from the
publlo whl.-h go into tho coffer of a
handful of millionaires, sad which are
permanently withdrawn from the thrift
aud industry ot th people.
' At the rloee of the fiscal year ending
June W. li'U. the record at Washington
show that the railroad of th United
State had collected a gross Income from
all branches of their service amounting to
H,ii!"..Sis. or thla sum, i,37s.n.u
was" paid out' tor labor or, to put It In
another way, almost eente out of
aver dollar they took la waa Immediately
paid out tor the hundred of thousand of
men and women whom they employ In
the conduct -of their buslnesa Kor main
tenance of way, equipment, depots, etc.,
they disbursed tK9.1T,iSl or almost an
other $1.00ft,!X-.00o and In thi vast Item
the reader can grasp what railroad pros
perity neana to the great ateel mills, the
lumber and coal Industry, the big car
and. locomotive building cortcema, and
other sources of railroad suppile. In
taxe they paid out the enormous sum of

Court Declines to
Order Dissolution
of Watch Combine
PHILADELPHIA, Jan. z.-The United
Ptatea district court here today handed
down an opinion refusing the govern,
ment's petition to brenk up the Keystone
Watch Case company on tho ground that
It Is a iruet in violation of the Slmrrnan
anti-trust law.
The court In Its docinlnn said:
"The defendant declares that the policy
of boycott had been given up before the
hill of complaint was filed, and there' is',
oome testimony to this effect, but' the i
circular has never been withdrawn t j
n-Kattved, and the company's resolution I
of January, 1910. has never been rescinded. ;
We have no doubt that an Injunction j
should be granted, but we se no sufficient j
videnc that the public Interest requires
us to break up the existing corporate
entity."
The suit was brought three years ago
aftalnst the Keystone Watch Case com
pany, which Is a combination of versl
watch-making concerns In varloua parts
of the country, and alleged by tho gov
ernment to control M per cent of the
business. The government charged that
the company restrained trade by forcing
dealers to use It goods exclusively under
a threat of boycott If they dealt with
rival manufacturing concerns.

public schools, publlo highway and
other revenue expense of every state,
county and incorporated town and city In
the country. After the Interest had been
paid on their funded debt and all other
characters of expense had been met, they
had tl53.4JB.CTi left out of which to de
clare dividends and to use as a surplus
fund for emergencies and Improvement
ot one klr.d and another.
In other words, after the rollaroad got
through paying for their labor, ateel.
lumber, coal interest and other necessary
expenses, the above little more than t!5S,
OOQ.wvi was all the surplus they had left
for themselves out of an Income of more
than $V,000.000 and this, too, upon
properties worth ' the glgantlo aunt of
tiO.OuO.000,000, or lea than 1 per cent upon
the total capital invested In the rail
road of the country. Thus it can be seen
that on the bant ot the present rate
the railroads pay back to the publlo In
one way and another practically every
dollar they receive for service.
Baralaar Cssdle st Bolk Ends.
A a matter of fact. If every railroad
in the country had charged off a proper
percent tte for depreciation, Instead of
having had a surplus of 1163.000,000 left In
1912, they would have had an actual de
ficit running Into the. millions. Some of
the larger systems bavo a fixed yearly
depreciation charge but scores of the
weaker line,. In their frantlo endeavor to
pay the interest on their debt and main
tain tho standing of their securities, use
every dollar of their Income to thi end,
and hence one ot the most alarming
phases of the present rallioad situation
I that thi process of "burning the
candle at both ends" mean a deteriora
tion of rolling stock and roadbed which
will rentier th continuance of adequate
and safe aervlce for the publlo Impossible
In the very near future. In a recent
article, James J. Hill, th great "Empire
Builder of the North," points out that
American railroad should apend at least
tsio.ooo.ooo annually In tmprovemfats and
betterments and It 1 therefore no exag
geration to say that rapidly deteriorating
equipment Is one of the ghost which
haunt hundred of railroad manager
throughout the country at the present
hour.
A wa stated In last week's article,
the operating Income of the railroads for
the fiscal year ending June O, 1914, was
tl.0n0,000 let than for 1913, while ex
penses and taxe wer 178,000,000 greater.
It can therefore bo seen at a glanoe that
unless th railroad ar given some In
crease In rate la the very near future the
time when many of there will go upon
th rock of financial ruin 1 not far off
end yet the alight Increase necessary to
save them I so small that the average
cltisen would not be conecloui of it after
It had gone Into effect.
A Barometer of Proaperit.
It Is an old saying that whan tha rail
road are prosperous everybody is pros
perous, and the manner In which their
income Is disbursed, as above explained,
tell the reason why. In short, for yatr
they have been regarded aa the great
business barometers nf tha nation. Na
other Industry In the country employs
. so many men a do the railroads, and.
furthermore. It Is a high grade of labor
employed upon a lucrative a baals aa
obtain In any other large Industry.
j When times are good nearly t.OOO.Ono peo
ple, nrsc ana last, are employed by the
railroads, and when this vast army la
working full time and Is contented the
millions they pay out for merchandise
and for tha living necessities produced
on the farm cannot help but have a
tremendous effect upon the commerce and
agriculture ef the country.
But thi U only half th story. Aside
from nearly 5,000,000 operatives directly
employed by the railroad In normal
time, th hundred of thousand of men
who work In the great ateel mill, the
coal mlnea. the lumber industry and In
tho big car and locomotive shops are
equally vitally affected, for when th
railroads are making extensive Improve
ment and buying heavily ef theee sup
Pile It mean that these great Industrie
are running furee shift, while when the
railroad are subsisting only upon abso
lute necessities It means that many of
them are only working half shift while
score are shut down altogether.
That the farmer haa a very vital and
personal interest In thi situation should
be apparent at a fiance. When the nill
llona of laboring men In the I'nlted State
are profitably employed t ' when all our
great Industrial enterprises are running
full shift It uean that he will have a
larger demand and receive a higher price
for the thlnga ha produces on his farm
for hi corn, wheat, pork. beef, mutton,
cotton, wool and other farm produeta In
other words, rj rloaely allied la the
trana porta tl(ie) problem of th nation that
the general elfere ef the railroad ha
become a f un lamental concern of every
other Interest.
