In his answer to the complaint of
tho Chicago, Minneapolis, St. Pnul &.
Omaha railroad, which alleged In the
fcdoral court that the rates provided
In tho legislation enacted in 11)07
were confiscatory, Attorney Oncrnl
Thompson shows In figures a compar
ison of tho earnings In 1!J07 and l!)0!l
and jilso a comparison of the rates
now charged In Nebraska and in other
states.
Tho suit has to do with the 2-eent
fare law and the AldrMi freight rate
jaw, wnicti decreased freight rates 15
per cent.
Discussing freight rates, the an
swer say3:
"The rates provided for the trans
portation of lumber In carloads In
Nebraska is 11.9 cents per 100 pounds
per 100 miles; in lowu the rate is
5.3 cents per 100 pounds tier 100
miles. The rate on wheat In VelmiR-
ka is 11.18 cents; In Iowa It Is 8.1
cents. The rate 'on corn In Nebras
ka Is 10.2 cents, while In Iowa It Is
G.8 cents. On cattle tho rate In Ne
braska Is 13.0 cents, while in Iowa It
is 10 cents. Tho rate on hogs In Ne
braska Is 17 cents, whllu In town the
rate Is It cents. The rate on apples
In Nebraska Is l.l.ii cents, while in
Iowa the rate Is 8.1 cents. The rate
on potatoes in Nebraska Is ll.'.i cents,
while in Iowa the rate is 7.2 cents.
The rate on coal in Nebraska Is $1.02
per ton, while in Iowa the rate is 74
cents."
Tho answer sets out that while the
revenue from Intrastate frelglit ship
ments has been increased since the
law went into effect, the expense of
operation has not been increased. The
rovenue from intrastate shipments
for the year ending June .'to, 1008,
was i;ju,;i5!.75 and for 1!)0D the reve
nue was $1537,149.2:1.
Tho earnings or the freight depart
ment for tho year ending June :)0.
1907, amounted to $l,202.3.:t.79. while

Tho freight earnings in Nebraska

per train mllo amouuted to $1,827.
The earnings per ton of freight ban-
uicu in Nebraska in 1907 amounted
to $1.23; in 1909 the earnings per ton
of f might amounted to $1.47. The
freight earnings per ton mile in 1907
nmounted to 1C.5 mills, while in 1909
tho earnings nmounted to 17.(53 mills.
This amount, the answer says, was
almost double tho average earnings
or tho entire line. 9.03 mills.
The operating revenue of the rail
road for Nebraska In 1907 was $1,
725,298.4(5, while for 1909 tho operat
ing revenue was $1,807,738.42. The
expenses for 1907 were $1,199,581.95
nnd for 190!) the expenses were $1 -231.933.21.
The net income for the
business done in Nebraska in PJ07
was $525,710.51 and for 1909 It was
$583,803.21. Tho not Inconio from
operation for 1907 per mllo was $l.
854.91. and for pjOl) tho net Income
was $1,899.50.
Statistics showing tho revenue re
ceived by tho railroads from the sale
of tickets, freight rorwarded nnd
freight received for the last year
Bhows the ambitious smaller cities of
the stato line up In this position:
Grand Island, tirst, 1924,839.79: Fre
mont, second, $038,813.90; Beatrice,
third, $62t,G70.02; Hnstlngs, fourth,
$C08,430.99; Kearney, fifth. $145,597.
I-J2; Nebraska City, sixth. $424,939.12
in the above group Nebraska City
shows n decrease of about $20,000
compared with the year before, wlitlo
Fremont shows a docreane or about
$30,000. The other towns mentioned
all show nn increase.
Compared with last year Omaha
and Lincoln show Increases, while So.
uninnn snows a decrease. For 1908
Omaha paid out to the railroads $10,
10S.917.29. compared with $10,392,
991.31 ror the last year; Lincoln paid
to tho railroads In 1908 $3,030,930.08.
compared with $3,07!I,093.I8. In 1908
South Omuha contributed $0,010.449..
99. compared with $5,875,971.18.
Of the smaller cities Schuyler made
the greatest Increase of any town in
tho state, Its Increase being $224,000.
In the amount of tho increase Schuy
ler ranks next to Omaha, which In
creased its expenditures with the
railroads some $284,000.
Tho total revenue ror the entire
state received by all the railroads for
1908 was $J8,112,2ll.i;t;. For 1909 the
total revenue amounted to $30,(540.

Alfalfa Rate Stays Down.
The Darlington railroad has been
refused permission to Increase the
rate on alfalfa hay from Scott's muff
to Omaha from 20 to 23 cents. The
order refusing this permission was
issued by the; railway commission
ii few days sigo, alter having received
protests from the Omaha Commercial
club and the Omaha AlfaUa Meal
company.
It was set out by the company thai
when the Peters company's plant at
Omaha burned some time ugo the
rate on alfalfa hay was reduced from
23 to 20 cents per 100 ror tho benefit
or that company. Now that the com
pany has got on Its Teet again the
railroad desires to restore tho old rate,
and with its application was Hied a
statement from the Peters company
waiving objection to the Increase.
Those who protested, however, set
out that the Peters company had
established mills out in the state and
was now shipping to Omaha the fin
ished product and no longer was It
Interested in the rate on alfalfa hnv.

The president eagerly read the
