THE AM ERIC US DAILY T1MES-KEC0RDEK: WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 9. 1S91
ON SCHEDULE TIME.
THE S., A. A M. ROAD TO INSTALL
SCHEOULE
ror Both rnlfln and MMpr Service
ThniDih to MentBomerr—The Mot *«•
Ids* of This Hood LarselJ Increased by
Happy Combination*.
Thk TiHE»*KKcori»un l» ofllolalljr. od-
vised that a regular freight echedule will
be tmtailed on the Savannah, Americua
A Montgomery on Sunday morning, of
course being praotlcally operative from
Monday morning.
On the Sunday following the Monday
on which a freight service will be In
stalled a passenger service will be In
operation.
This Information means much to
Americua from a commercial standpoint,
iusuring a ready Western outlet and a
more satisfactory freight service.
The completion of the Sam road into
Montgomery occasioned numerous
chaugea in the freight rates and accru
ing revenue; differences that redound
infinitely to the best interests of the
road.
A glance at the map will readily ae
quaint the most careless observer of the
splendid advantages reaped by tbe com'
pletiou of tbe road Into Montgomery
with the excellent terminals secured.
A car load or pig Iron (New York Iron)
from Americua to Lyons yielded <10
cents per ton; from Doston 08; from
llsltimore 04. This is under the service
now in force.
With the road completed into Mont
gomery, Ala , the alteration In freight
rates is material, governed, of course, by
the additional distance over which tbe
freight Is hauled. From Montgomery to
Helena Baltimore Iron will yield $1 per
ton (2208 pounds); Boston Iron $1.08;
New York iron 04 cents.
The above statements govern only pig
iron.
Regarding lumber the rates per 100
pounds from S, A. A M. stations to
Helena, Cordele and Americas (western
points) is 8} cents; from 8., A. A' M. stS'
tlons to Montgomery, Ala., the rate la 0
cents on 100 pounds.
Flour Is hanied from Helena, Oa., to
Americua, Ga, lrom western points at
the rate of 8 2-100 cents per 200 pounds;
Cordele,>Oa , to Amerlous from western
points T] cents; Montgomery to Americas
via Louisville is 20 0-10 cents; Montgom
ery to Americas from western points via
Cincinnati at 201-10 cents.
The immense advantages entailed by
ihe new schedule Is too apparent to need
commenting on. Tbe Inorease Is due to
the extension of tbe road into Montgom
ery, thereby affording the Louisville and
Nashville a means by which It can reach
a port.
Meat and lard, from Western points,
indicate tbe same ratio of increase,
Drain and hay show the same Increase.
Naval stores also command higher
freight charges.
"lie foregoing presentation of the
changes involved iu the change of routes,
shows that the net earnings of the 8. A.
A M. road will be largely in excess of
ths earnings prior to the completion of
tht western division of the rood.
- A tabulated statement of the maxi
mum gain per oar load of various com
modities shipped over the 8am road can
not but be of deepest interest to those
who have the good of this road at
heart:
Maximum' gain per ear load 28,000
pounds, meat 24.75.
Maximum gain per car load 24,000
pounds, flonr 15.78.
Maximum gain per car load 24,000
pound*, grain 14.04.
Maximum gain per car load 24,000
pounds, spirits 18 <10.
Maximum gain per car load 30,600
pounds, pig iron 2.05.
Maximum gain per car load 24,000
pounds, lumber 6.00.
With the Sam finished Into Savannah,
we challenge the world to furnish a road
that will do tbe tremendous business it
must necessarily do—and what Is better
the eastern extension Is a certainty, only
a question of days and weeks.
