WEST ROADSJAKING MORE Carriers of East Earn Less Than Those Doing- Business Ont This Way. IOWA EXPERT ON THE STAND CHICAGO, March $1.

Ellis, statis tician of the Iowa Railroad commission, who testified today at the Interstate Commerce commission hearing on the re quest of forty-one railroads for Increased freight rates.

In calculating the net operating income of all the western reads involved at $2Attl,000 in 1913, he Included leased as well as operated roads, and took no consideration of any duplications resulting from payments by the operating to the leased roads. "Your figures Include earnings from not only rail operations, but from Investments In other properties, d0 they not?" asked Mr. Wright. "Yes. sir." "You make no allowance tor Increased mileage that has been built In accounting for the Increased earnings shown, or for the fact that somo of ths mileage has been double or triple-tracked 7" "No. sir." ' The witness had Included the Atchison, Tope k a & SantaFe railroad as a repre sentative Iowa road, which helped to show a high rate tof earnings of all the roads in that state.
