Are They Heading Toward Prosperity or Toward Bankruptcy? By B. C. FORBES. NEW YORK. June 10 Are American railroads heading toward prosperity or toward bankruptcy? The question con cerns! not only banking people, not only railroad managers and employees, not only investors in railroad securities. It concerns YOU, no matter what your sta tion in life. You can not afford to remain indifferent to it, for were widespread trouble to overtake our railroads, the peo ple as a whole would suffer, and suffer more seriously than the thoughtless can imagine True, the public in bygone years had too often cause for wanting to punish railroad owners who acted in the most autocratic, sometimes insolent man ner, defiant of both reason and restraint. But has not retribution enough befallen the railroads? Is it not time that a halt was called in imposing restrictions upon the running of our railways? Can the hands of railway managers be tied still tighter WITH IMPUNITY TO THE PUB LIC? The man in the street can not be ex pected to spend hours and effort in an alyzing intricate railway accounts—he has problems enough of his own nearer home. He has a deep-rooted feeling that the railroads are very well able to look after themselves and a little more. He has not forgotten the past. In a vague sort of way he realizes that the railroads have been tamed a bit. the government has bridled them, that when they planned to exact higher freight rates a Federal commission had the power to say “No,” and that in other ways the railroads can not now do as they please. But that he should become solicitous concerning their welfare -well, he guesses that is none of bis business. * » • Now is it the business of you or me to worry over the knocks the railroads are receiving? Should we pay any heed to the now chronic complaints of fresh re strictions and Impositions that, accord ing to the railway people, threaten the financial and even the physical stability of the railroads? I am inclined to think we should. • • • Every one can readily understand that the country could not prosper were rail road after railroad to go under. An im poverished. decrepit, languishing railway is a handicap to every industry and inter est depend'ng upon it for service. Not only so, but when a road begins to go down hill its potver to get capital van ishes, and the funds necessary to main tain the property’can not be obtained— and therefore can not be spent. Stock holders in course of time suffer the loss of their income, and, unless Something helpful be done, bondholders also have to starve, events which hit the pockets of thousands- Indeed, if bankruptcies be came general millions of investors would be involved. Is there any danger of this happening” Railroad authorities of sound judgment say there is. Without holding any brief for the rail roads, it can be said in all truth that the outlook is not inspiring. A railroad man ager is not today a manager in the old or full sense of the term. He has now a superior—the interstate commerce com mission. This body has a maximum of power, hut a minimum responsibility, it can—and does —order railway income to be reduced without having to trouble it self one iota as to how and deficiency in revenue may be made up. It regulates receipts—that is. it is constantly lower ing them; but when the railroads wanted tins same body to decide whether the en gineers' wages should be increased the request was refused. Thus we have reg ulation without responsibility, and thus have the railroads to submit to reduc tions in income, and at the same time contend with demands for larger expen ditures. So numerous are the orders issued by the interstate commerce commission low ering freight rates that the newspapers no longer can spare space to print them all. Not a few roads of the first importance are paying out in dividends far more than they are earning. Illinois Central is not earning 50 cents for every SI.OO it is giving away in dividends. St. Paul is in exactly the same position. More roads than the layman can realize have been systematically "scrimping." Almost ev ery railroad president will admit that maintenance and equipment have not dealt with generously during the last two or three years. Worse still, there has re cently appeared a tendency to trans form short-term equipment obligations into permanent securities, an unpardon able financial sin, for plainly a long-term bond based on equipment that will go out of existence in a comparatively short period is not worth calling a "security" its security has been cast into the junk heap, other makeshifts have been re sorted to in an effort to keep up apeur ances and div dends. Would the interstate commerce com mission resent a suggestion that it in terest itself in tite "other side' of the railroad situation, if nothing be discov ered to justify alarm, if nothing be found calculated to check 'he daily reductions in freight rales, then the railroads, troubled investors and some other intelligent mem bers of the public will feel infinitely re lieved. Regulation is all right; strangulation would be all wrong NEW PRODUCE MARKET. NEW YORK, .lune 10. Wheat, dull: July. 1.14 7 s ® 1.15; spot.

COTTON COES OP ON BID WEATHER Spot Houses Best Buyers of the Staple—Liverpool Cables Show Strength. NEW YORK. June 10. With Liver pool cables better than due. and a pros pect of unsettled weather conditions over the Gulf belt, the cotton market opened firm and steady, first prices 5 to 9 points higher. The weather indications, how ever, were not well enough defined to create any exceptional buying move- ; ments. After the < all. trading eased off [ and the market became dull. Futures and spot in Liverpool were st rung. At noon the market was still making headway for new high levels. This rapid advance was caused entirely by unfavora ble weather conditions over the entire cot ton belt. The ring crowd was good sell ers to the spot houses, which were th? principal buyers. Another factor was the heavy demand in Liverpool for spots. Reports of possible showers along the coast caused uneasiness among the shorts. The best buyers, however, looked to be for long accounts, coming from some of the leading hull forces, and it is believed that bulls will continue to buy. forcing i shorts to cover. At the close the market was very steady, with prices 12 to 29 p« inis higher than the final quotations of Saturday’s close. RANGE IN NEW VORK FUTURES.

Union Pacific was bought, advancing 1 point in a few minutes. Most of the buying of this issue was said to represent covering from board room shorts. There was continued accumulation of American Sugar Refining Company. 'Die steady. There was further liquidation of Ca nadian Pacific in London for Berlin ac counts. Americans in London were fairly stead*. Wall Street cables reported strong belief that a decision in the an thracite case would be handed down to day.
