Federal judges have thus come to be among the largest railway managers. The general public, it is probable, have an imperfect idea of the extent of this description ot insolvency. In 1899 twenty-seven lines of railroads went into the hands of receivers. These represented a mileage of 33,000 miles, and a capitalization and bonded indebtedness of over $2,000,000,000. Adding to this the roads that were already in the hands of receivers at the beginning of '93, we find over miles of road, representing over $2,500,000,000 of capital, now in the hands of receivers, allowing for the foreclosure sales that have taken place in the last six months.

For the year ending June 3, 1898, per cent, of the outstanding stock was paying no dividends. Since that time we have had the panic, and a steady decrease, still continuing, in the earnings of most the roads. The percentage of railroad stock that is paying no dividends must be at present much greater than a year ago. All earnings continue to show a decrease. The recent railroad strike has proved the most disastrous event in the (list, of railroads, and the present downward tendency in that business is worse than any previous experience.

The reports of railroad earnings since Jan. 1 have heen worse each month than for the month before in comparison with 1893. The single estimate of decrease of $41,616,077 In the gross earnings of 125 railroads for the past, six months compared with the first half of '93 is considered a safe one. And it is further estimated the further falling off of all the railroads in the United States during the same period will be not less, than $100,000,000. This is as much as all the railroads in the United States paid in dividends for the year ending July '93.

Facts like these throw light over the subject of strikes and the question of hardship as it relates to capital and labor. It may well be questioned whether labor, when it comes to understand the whole question, would, if it could, change its place with capital. There are strong grounds for concluding that in certain important respects, touching railroad owners and operatives, in reality the hoot is not on the leg it is supposed to be.

He was one of the first to congratulate Chairman Thorn and to promise him hearty support.
