RAILWAY CONSOLIDATION.
Mr. C. P. Huntington, President of the
Southern Pacific Company, than whom
there is no more experienced railway
financier, has a paper in the Nbrth Ameri
oan Review for September upon railway
consolidation that is deservedly attracting
wide attention. The article must be read
in full; we can refer only tv a few points
made in it by Mr. Huntington and on
other occasions.
Consolidation, or joint ownership, in
his opinion, is the one and only effective
remedy for "rate wars," and the demoral
ization resulting from "rate catting."
This is not a sudden judgment by Mr.
Unntington, but one that he reached sev
eral years ago, and that is the result of
extended experience and long study. The
process of consolidation, he says, is sim
ply the endeavor to., secure the largest
possible amount of tonnage for trans
portation at the minimum of expense.
Formerly, to travel from Albany, X. V.,
to the extreme western limit of the State.
one had to pass over six independent lines
of railway, and freight, of course, had to
follow the same order. These independ
ent connecting lines could not return even
reasonable proiits, while the difficulty of
shipment through so many hands was
with great vexation and costly, an i loca
tion of responsibility for delays was some
thing next to impossible.
In that case, us in about all others,
operators have found not only their own
convenience and economy in joint owner
ship, bin also the comfort, convenience
and economy of the public. No one at
this day will deny that the people have
been Infinitely the gainers by the change
which created the Yew York Central and
tho Hudson River railways. The same
proved true in the case of the Pennsyl
vania Railway < fempany, which is the re
»olt of the consolidation under one control
of many small lints. Without this consoli
dation no such great success in transporta
tion could have been achieved. To-day
it is conceded on all sides that the result
of railroad amalgamation in Now York
and in Pennsylvania has been of highest
importance and greatest benetit, both to
the people and the promoters of these
great industries. They serve the peoplu
infinitely better than it was possible for
the fragmentary roads to have do Ue , and
at the same time tho returns to the invest
ors are larger and better. The effect oi
such consolidation has been, and will
continue to be, the bringing of transpor
tation rates down, and lessening practi
caMy the distance between producers and
consumers In their relations. It is only
when rate-cutting prevails that the con
ditions of these great lines change for the
worse.
Mr. Huntington is certainly precise
and fully warranted iv his declaration
that tho great mass of peoplo view rail
road wars and unhealthy competition be
tween the companies with disfavor. It is
only the man with an ax to grind mud
i oal and selfish end* to serve who
controvert! the proposition, and will ad
thal invite capitalized en
terprises to bankruptcy. All unwise, un
healthily stimulated competition between
railway transporters always has
and always Will affect the public disas
trously us well as the immediate parties
to tho strife, nnsetfrHng values, disturbing
vested interests aud checking develop
ment.
Mr. Huntiugton discerns that wo have
I out of that state of distrust of oor
porattoni into tho broad li^lit of tho truth
that they are the best and most effective
menus of enabling the multitude to com
bine for mutual protection and benefit.
There remain, it ia true, a few who re
gard corporate industry with distrust;
still loss a number who would convert it
into Governmental and paternal condi
tion-, and who would abolish utterly the
one means by which the people can com
pete, as the eatayisi puts it, "with vast
capital concentrated in the hands of a few
individuals." Ho believes,and we think
that be is not too sanguine in his faith,
that tho time is very near at hand when
the community demand will bo for the
same treatment of corporate property
that ia afforded private piTwmwliiin.
Heholda that it is possible, ec should
be, for railroads to transport prodgpts of
farm and mine at aftjttatt advance over
cost of operating a train, and thereby de
velop interests, and givo employment not
to be looked for under a system by which
tho law arbitrarily rises the rate, and
thus prevents tho bringing of soil and
mine products to the market where they
can and takers. Tho fixed charges con-

Stitute the chief burden in railroading—a
truism that no one will deny. These em
brace tho interest upon tho money in
vested in creating the property, the taxes
upon it and the conduct of those depart
mental necessarj' in the business conduct
of the railroad company.
That the Interstate Commerce Act has
caused immense loss to tho producer is
true, since the lean product cannot move
and the rich product will, because the
price for moving the tonnage is com
pulsory and disregards the leanness or
richness of tho produce. The true rule
would bo to move the lean product at a
small prolit over actual expenses.
Where a road runs through an arid
region tho necessity is upon the lino to
receive something from the bowels of the
earth to make tonnage. This truth we
upon this const fully realize, the great
desert plains upon our east being
tho prools before us. It is certainly un
deniable that the poorest product at all
moveable ought to go out lor a fraction
over tho train expenses.
Mr. Huntington dwells upon the un
equal competition forced upon American
overland roads with the Canadian Pacific
line. Tho latter fostered by a paternal
government and free from restrictive
legislation forces upon the American
roads a policy that is not for the benefit
of the majority of the people who uso tho
roads, because the largo shippers at com
peting points get a benefit from reduc
tion of rates, while small shippers are in
jured. Thus ninety-nineoutof ahundred
may have each a carload or less to ship.
This is not enough to excite competitive
interest or to induce a cut in tho rate, but
one man with 500 carloads can bid the
roads against each other and secure re
bates. It is not necessary to follow out
Mr. Huntington's illustration to show
the .small shipper how he is injured by
this policy, while it is equally as clear
that the roads aro not benefited. Tho
way shippers pay more, aro crowded into
markets, and compelled to sell at a less
profit than they are entitled to. The
remedy for this the essayist pronounces
to be consolidation, which cuts off costly
separate organizations, agencies and
offices. On the .side of the people it means
an end of tho complaint against a greater
charge for a short than a long haul, be
cause there will be then no rebates or
commissions, which cost the roads so
enormously.
Mr. Huntington would have all trans
portation business of the country done by
one company. To the many this will ap
pear as a startling proposition, one quite
impossible. But it is neither monstrous
nor out of the range of possibility, and
Mr. Huntingtou maintains this position
with vigor. The results of such consoli
dation would be reduction of the cost of
transportation to the minimum: no
greater charge fora short than a long haul,
except whero water competition exists,
liaising railroad rates at non-competing
points is the natural outcome of scattered
railroad interests, but under joint owner
ship the economy conserved in rolling
stock and its use would bo a potential
factor in reducing rates and the amount
of capital invested for reward.
Railway consolidation would furnish
an avenue for investment in sound secur
ities by the multitude. Their resource
now is United States bonds, but these
must presently cease to offer; then tho
inventor will bo driven to seek security
among a multitude of distinct railway
lines, subject to serious fluctuations due
to unwholesome competition, bad man
agement, or uncontrollablo greed. If,
however, all the railroads were united
their shares would bo absolutely safe in
vestment.
Another Btrong point made by the
railroad magnate who proposes consoli
dation is that under it the product of the
farm could be moved for the least possi-
I ble sum; this cannot bo done by roads
: limited in extent, because they cannot
practice tho economies of wealth. With
I one or at most two or three great carry
ing managements with unlimited re
j sources and facilities, millions could be
d to shippers and travelers. Such
| consolidated management would not be
dangerous to tho rights of tho people; tho
people do and would control; their courts
would protect them in all their rights.
I Mr. Hantington might well have added
that really there will be less of danger of
political usurpation by one or two such
corporations than now by tho hundreds,
each seeking sellish and particular ad
vantage, and each the prey of dema
i gogues and legislative blackmailers.
Legislation under the consolidation
system would more certainly control
justly, equitably, than is possible where
hundreds of contending corporations are
■abject to the operation of thu laws.
It would be profitable to follow Mr.
Huntingtou in dotail in his argument, as
certainly it would bo interesting, but
this may not be; tho essay must be read
in full to entirely comprehend the plea
mado and tho vigorous reasoning ad
vanced in support of it. Certainly that
such a proposition can now be calmly
discussed, as lias this, by all tho leading
journals of the day since Mr. Hunting
ton has projected it into the forutn of
public debate; that it does not oxcito un
.ing hostility or kindle biased op
position and awaken tho fears of the
timorous, is proof that in most part the
spirit that once looked upon railroad en
terprise as the enemy of the community
has ceased to be manifest, and that
business and economic reason are taking
iv place.
Ik tho audacious rascals who stoppod
and robbed a railroad train of the South
ern Pacific Company near Modesto, and
shot an ellicient and old-timo detective
officer, are not captured, it will be a re
proach to the officials of the county and
State. It was a daring robbery, has
> areely a parallel for audacity, and was
promoted by a gang of cut-throats, for
they tired right and left and did not hesi
tate to kill.
The leader of tho gang was seea by
many people who describe his appear
ance and can identify him. Several
others of the gang were seen face to face
and can be readily identified. The conn
try around the place where the robbery
was committed is of such a character
that the robbers can be tracked, and it is
next to impossible for them to reach the
cover of the hills without making ■ trail,
for the traveled roads are already fully
guarded. If these rascals reach the bot
toms along tho Tuolumne, they may suc
cessfully hide in the willows for a time,
but even that can not be a long retreat.
The evidences in the hands of the officers
point to the notorious Goshen gang as
presumably guilty of the robbery. Tho
"working" of the scheme resembles the
Goshen outrage closely, and would seem
to indicate that the same men "engi
neered" both crimes. If with the early
start they had, the officers do not over
haul the robbers the whole people will bo
greatly disappointed.
That shrewd politician whose predic
tions have so otten been fulfilled, M. do
Blowitz, believes that Europe is upon
the eve of a great upheaval, and that
nothing can now prevent war. Were it
not for the irritable disposition of France
we would believe tho political prophet to
be this time at i'auit. Hut France is ap
parently solicitous to provoke a blow.
Tho issue of tradition she clearly de
mands shall be fought out. Even were
Germany to return Alsace and Lorraine
to-day, do Blowitz believes that France
would not be satisfied, and would still
demand the sword. "We confess that
there is much to warrant this belief, and
that the whole tone of public expression
in France at this time is provocative of
belligerency. Zola declares thatFnmee
is ready; tho German press sneer
ingly ask "for what?" and Figaro replies
"to atone for the disgrace of Sedan." As
a rule nations do not go to war for senti
mental reasons, but when France begins
the impending conflict it will bo because
of sentiment largely. Back of it lies tho
old sore of loss of territory and the
treatment of the people of Alsace and
Lorraine, but loss of prestige has quito
as much to do with the pugnacious atti
tude of tho Republic to-day. It may bo
that all this agitation of tho present is
bluster, but we very much fear that it is
of the order of boasting that results in
actual conflict of arms. A nation that
.stands for three years, as has France,
with a "chip upon its shoulder," anxious
to have it "knocked off," is very likolj-
to be accommodated when it has an old
time foe at its face, at which it is contin
ually spitting its hatred. Tho evidences
of rising anger on both sides of the Rhine
are many, and no surprise should be ex
pressed, if within the year, some act very
insignificant in itself should fire the train
that leads to Avar.
Now that tho Condell, torpedo boat,
and the transport Imperiale, the last of
Lalmaceda's fleet, have hauled down
tiieir Hags; now that tho Revolutionary
Junta is in the seat of authority, and tho
trustee Balmaceda created has surren
dered his powers to the new Government;
now that the refugees have been taken to
Peru; that the Dictator is fleeing over the
Andes, and the new Government is mov
ing in the direction of permanent civil
organization, perhaps Mr. Minister Egan
may lind time and stimulate inclination
to officially report to the State Depart
ment: First, that there has been a war in
Chile; second, that tho old Government
has been overthrown, and that a new one
is triumphant; third, that it is all true as
Admiral Brown anc^our Consuls have
reported to Washington, and that it has,
therefore, in his opinion, been unneces
sary for the Minister to bother himself
about so trilling a matter.

Ladies' Broadcloths.
"No retail stock of autumn dress goods
will be complete without full assortments of
these," writes a competent authority in a
leading trade journal. The fabric has been
growing steadily in favor for several seasons,
first as a material for dresses, then for
jackets. As a dress material it gives the
wearer a gracefulness not possible with any
other fabric. This is not because of the
weight, as it is not heavier than any other
cloths used for winter wear, but because of
the harder twisted yarns that are used in
its manufacture being necessary to secure
the desired finish. The fabric is not easily
crumpled or creased, and wrinkles are easily
removed by pressing with a hot iron.
We have these Broadcloths in three
grades— sl, $1 50 and $2 25 a yard. The
latter is the finest quality, is 54 inches wide,
and has a lustrous finish that is generally
known as Satin Amazon Cloth.
The qualities at $1 and $1 50 are the best
values ever shown in this city.
The leading autumn shades are to be had
in these cloths, including the new Tans,
Browns and Grays.
Unbleached Lisle Thread Hose, fine quality,
extra long, double heels and toes—both silk
tipped—for 50c a pair. Extra value in this.
