NET PROFIT ON WORKING £1,090,740 or an increased net profit over last year of £1 s,o~3, notwithstanding the fact that there was a decrease in the revenue of £r99,789. . The percentage of working exp~nses· to ·the gross revenue is 59.'99, a decrease of 3'24 per cent. on last year, and 9'09 on the year 1891-2. . . The working expenditure, exclusive of pensions and gratuities, shows a decrease of £222,845 i6s. 6d., and a percentage to revenue of 57'13 . .

REVENUE. The diminution in revenue still continues, and until there is generally a more confident and steady state of business It is not to be expected that there will he any material improvement in the railway receipts. Certain reductions in rates and fares, estimated_ to amount to £4o,ooo per annum, came into force on the 5th July of this year. Although they pertain to the current year, we take this opportunity of stating that the reductions were made after careful consideration and with the vie': of giving a eertai_n measure of reiief, to remove anomalies, and to meet competition by water and road. It is too soon to refer to actual results; but the falling-off in revenue since the close of the financial year has only been very partially affected hy these reductions, and is, in our opinion, almost wholly due to the abnormal condition of the Colony. Under the present depressed condition of the Coiony, the uncertainty as to the fiscal measures which may be adopted by the Legislature, and ·the consequent stagnation of trade and paralysis of enterprise, it Is difficult to frame reliable estimates of reveriueor expenditttre, or to anticipate with anything approaching Mctiracy the resuits which would follow fu~fner alterations in freights or fares. \Ve think it would be safe to asStUne, however", that, tihdei· the existing cotidiiions of trade, further reductions in freights and fares, except ih special cases; would in the meantime result in diminished revenue; Had circiimstances beei1 f'avorahle we \vould have liked to have reduced tl1e country fares, hut in view of the p:robaole la.rge loss involved we found it impracticable. The faliing-off in receipts would ai)pear to indicate that the. travelling public sperid all they are able to afford in this direction, and consequently any reduction made, while increasing traveliing facilities, would riot, we think, bring any corresponding addition to the revenue: s . We thoroughly realize that considerable reductions could be made which, although perhaps increasing the railway deficit,· would beneficially affect large sections of. the community, and probably be of t;ational benefit. Such reductions, however, would be a matter of State policy, and any loss to the Department consequent upon their adoption should be provided for out of the Consolidated Revenue, and not debited to. the Railways. THE H.AII,W.AY DEFICiT. There is no disg·uising the fact that at present the annual deficit in payment of interest is a serious one; but it may be pointed out that relatively it is not s~ great as in earlier years. The following is a comparison between the year 18 8 7-8 and the year under review, from which it will be seen that, while the revenue for both years is virtually equal, the working expenditure is practically the same, notwithstanding the fact that there is an increase in the mileage open for 'traffic of I,ooo miles. It therefore appears that the deficit for 1893-4 is the increase in inte1·est cau~ed by the construction of the additional mileage :- . Year. Revenue. E;penditure. lliles open. Train Miles run. Interest. ! ' £ £ £ !887-8 ... z,7 s6,049 I ,6z4,0J I~; 2,018 9,o8z,312 1,os6,71 I 1893-4 ... 2,726,1 59 1,635,419 . 3,ozo IO,J45>J07 1,460,849 • Exclusive of the cost of the Windsor.accide~>t. So many economies have been effected, and the general w01:king expenditure has been so materially reduced, that a revival in trade, which would bring about increased railway business, would soon extinguish the deficit. The natural growth of the colony and increase in population will eventually restore the equilibrium between net revenue and interest. In the meantime, however, it should he borne in mind that in the Railway property the State has a most valuable asset, worth much more than ·' its actual cost, and an undertaking which confers indirect advantages to the community far exeeeding the total amount of the accrued deficit. There can be no _doubt, however, that the railway loss'is largely augmented by the cohstrU:ction during recent years of lines which, under the most economical management, cannot possibly pay interest on their capital cost for years to come. Handicapped as the management is by such conditions, and with a mandate to m::tke the Rail ways pay, it is difficult to initiate any comprehensive policy which would eventually stimulate traffic, if the immediate effect involVes loss of revenue. It is suggested that, ili order to give the management freedom,of action in the direction indicated, Parliament be urged to decide on a fixed rate of interest .which the Rail ways should be called upon to pay (say 3 p~r ce11t. on the total debenture capital expended on raihvay construction). The balance available after paying that sum, up · to £roo,ooo or such sum ~s Parliament might direct, could be ap1~lied_ to reductions in charges am~ increased facilities for travellers and traders. The difference. between th~ rate of interest fixed (plus the balance referred to) and the actual interest payable would have to be met in any way P~rliament might adopt. 9 RoAD CmiPETITION. The conditions-viz., scareity of other classes of work, with cheap horses and feed-which brought the team competition into existence still continue, and con sequently a certain amount of traffic is still carried by road. Under existing circum stances very large general reduc'tions would have to he made, as the concessions would require to he extended to districts beyond the competitive area to entirely cope with th~ competition. The alterations made have had partial success, hut a further reduction would involve a loss greater than the value of the traffic we are losing · would recoup. The teams are also enabled to compete because their loading consists of goods which are carried by the Railways at a rate above the uniform charge per ton adopted by the teamsters; anything at or below their scale is carried by raiL " \¥ere a policy of uniform elassification, su TnE BoRDER RATEs. We were approached by tl1e Railways Commissioners of New South 1Vales and South Australia with reference to the adjustment of competitive rates, but, owing to the season being advanced and arrangements made, we were unable to make any alteration in the tariff. We stated, however, that we would be perfectly willing, after this season, ·to meet them in conference, and agree to an equitable basis which would be advantageous to all concerned. ' REDUCTION IN MILEAGE. The reduction in train mileage this year amounts to 629,827 miles. -Reductions are still in progress, and it is contemplated to make further alterations in the running by which considerable savings in mileage will be effected without reducing necessary facilities or impairing efficiency. MALLEE LINES. The following statement shows the result of working the Mallee I~ines from the date of opening to the close of the financial year :- Capitn1 Line. Length of Joth Revenue.

Rolling-stock (estimate) ... 12,5oo 745 } (xst section opened sth Janu- ary, 1893. znd section opened 6th March, 1894.) The capital expenditure will be considerably more than is now shown when the whole of the equipment is completed. The revenue on the Warracknabeal to Beulah section has been credited with the catTiage of material for the construction of the Hopetoun Line. It should also 10 be borne in mind that a considerable portion of the traffic would have gone to_ Donald· and Wm~raclniabeal stations if the iines had not been col1strilcted. The working expenditure is not debited ,vtth any proportio1i of junction station or generai charges. The result, however, is very satisfactory, and is due to cheap cost of construe~ tion, economy in working, and the existence of local rates. fMPROVEi.fENT OF LINES AND GI~ADES. Immediately on our appointment we gave this subject our first attention, as we tecognised that in order t(J accede to the imperative deitiaiids for cheai:l fares and freights it \vas ahsolutel,Y necessary to tetluce the cost of haulage to a minimuh1 .. One of the courses to htt.'l{n this end, a:nd one \v];Iich has been followed foi1 years ort all the leading 1·oads iu Ametica ahd other places where traffic wan·ants it, is to judiciously i'edtice grades and flatten Ctil've8. That the question might he fuliy and systematically investigated We appointed a Board, consisting of three competent officei's from the Engiheedng, Locomotiv~, and Traffic Branches, to examhie the whoie of the iiiies, hhtke j)racticai tests of loads, · capacity, and speeds of engines, &c., under all conditions, The progress of the work has lJeen necessarify slow, as owing to the curtail ment 1n our supervising staff the officers engageci have had to perform the]r ordinary work in addition to carrying on t~ese inquiries. A first progress report has, however, now been presented to us; dealing with the section between Korumburra and Oakleigh, upon which a heavy coal traffic exists, and it is fouud that by a reduction of grade8 at various points and other works, at an expendi.ture of £s,ooo, of which only £J,soo is actual outlay, the line ean be improved so that the engines in use can d1·aw 40 per cent. larger-loads. It is c.aicu.lated that 1:1 saVing (jf £2;666 per annum C[th be effected, and we have giveri orders for the necessary alterations .to be put iti hand at once; and; though a " cat)ital " Work; we propose debiting the cost against working expenses; as we are. reluctant to further increase the interest charges. We a~so pr~pose employing on this work a number of the surplus men who are now working short time. IriJ!liify IS now being instituted ihto what hhpi·ovetneiits caii he effected on the line between Stawell and Horshain, on whicli severai steeii grades occur, which seriously inte1fere with the haulage of wheat .. trains, and which we are assured can be tedu.ced conside1:ab1y withoUt miich outlay. In addition to grades which affect liaulage, many of the lines, notably the North-Eastern, aboUnd in abrupt aricl freqtient changes of grade, which tax the skill and care of the engineniEm to tlie utmost to preVent the sha.pping of coiiplings when hauiing long trains. It is doubtful if longer trains could be hauled than at present ,vith safety owing to this cause. "\Ve i)l:opose reh1(Ning these sUdden changes of grades or substituting vertical curves for them on all lines as far as ptacticable \vhel'e sufficient traffic exists to warrant it. RoLLING-STOCK. There is little doubt that, by the judicious addition of more powerful engines to our stock, economy in haulage would be effected, but not to such an extent as might be supposed. For example, the mileage now run by suburban ti·a1ris, arid iriost other _U_ J 11 l)assehger atld mixed tl;!:tills and branch Hne traffic, Wolild not be illatet•ially lessened, and th!s comprises a large projJottioii of tlie milea~e i·im. On main iines it would be by the avoidance of spedals, douhie-banking of express a11d excursion trains, &c., Which of late, owing to falling~off ot traffic, are, unforttltUitely, infrequerit, that more poWei:fullocofuotives would be pd11cipally of set'vice. , We are advised that the tractive }1ower of some of' the ex1stihg stock can be considerably increased without impairment of efficiency in other respects, and this matter is receiving attention. We have also authorized the obtaitiing of two Amedcan Consolidation Goods Engines for trial, and it would also be advisable to obtain a more poWerful type of' passenger engine wheil funds permit ; l:mt, in view of the lai·ge sums of money which have beet1 spent in i'olling-stoclt dtidrtg the last few years, and the fa1ling~off of trttffic, We do not feel justified in tecommendlng any fm'tner large additions to the capital acco~nt at present, and it must riot be lost sight of that the hse of much more powerful iocottwtives would also probably necessi tate the strengthening of the draw=geat' of a litrge nutnber of vehicles, besides otht:n' expense, Cool 1'1·ucks.-Plans, specifications, and pattei'ii truck have been pretiai~ed, and tenders are now being called for the supply of t 26 insulated ti'ttclts adapted for the conveyance of either butter and other dairy produce, or chilled or frozen meat. Special care has been taken.itl the irtslilating of the trucks, which will be cooled with ice. A contract f<:H' tlie supply of IH~cessary machinery has been accepted to manu facture ice at a rate per ton which will enable us to use it liberally. The trucks and ice-thakiilg plant are specified to be ready in ample time for the season. COAL. During the year we have used I q,ooo tons of Victorian coal, which IS equal to about half our total C(:msumption. . We have every desire to continue the use of it to the fullest extent, quite recognising as we do the necessity of encouraging in every way an undertaking of such n::ttional importance as this. Without such consideration, however, we could reduce our working expenses by probably £2 s,ooo per annum. \Vhilst the Rail ways. are expected to pay interest on unprofitable lines, and we are pressed o~ all hands to further reduce fares and freights, we think that the Department should not be debited with mo1·e than the commercial value of an article so largely used as coaL THE STAFF. We consider it our duty to state that the stafr now engaged in supervision and inspection is not more than is necessary for the safety of the public, the protection of the Railway pro1)erty, and the due care and economical administration of the various branches. If supervision is not clearly in excess of requirements, its curtailment is false economy. The percentage of officers so engaged is very low, and the necessarily corn-· paratively small savings which it may be considered could he effected by a reduction in the number or status of those who, after years of experience, are actively employed . . 12 in the superintendence and. direction of the. various branches and work~_connected with such~ large railway system as ours could be speedily counterbalanced by the leakage ·which is the invariable result of insufficient supervision or overtaxed control. · In the course of nature a large number of employes retire every year, but no additions have been made in consequence. Upwards of 400 employes retire annually from ordinary causes, and if the policy is pursued of making no additions to the staff, it is evident that very considerable retrenchment can be soon effected in this way, and that there would be no need for extensive and immediate dismissals, wpich might involv-e great hardship and tend to dislocate and impair the efficiency of the service. We regret that the state of business has rendered it necessary, in addition . to , the percentage reductions imposed by Parliament, to curtail still further the working time of a large number of the staff, but we are pleased to record the fact that, notwithstanaing the Jarge proportion of the burden of general retrenchment which has_ had to be borne by. the whole of the Railway officers and staff, they have exercised great fortitude, and have loyally performed their duties. In the Appendix will be found the reports of the Engineer-in-Chief, the Chief Mechanical Engineer, and the Engineer for Existing Lines, together with detailed statements of Capital and Revenue Accounts, and other statistical returns.

The railways from Natimuk to Goroke, z8;! miles, and from Boort to Quambatook, 22 miles, have be~n op~qed for p!Jptic tr~ffic sil!ce the close of the finan<;:!al year: All these railways have been very sparingly furnished with !tecommodation works pending the development of traffic; ltnd the cotlstnwtion having heen economized and carded out by the Department under the butty-gang system at. a tiwe whep both ln,poyr ~nd materi!J.[~ l;uwe been ex:ceptionally low, and fencing, gates, an(l cattle-gun,rds being in, many cas!)s omitted, the ·cnpital cost per mile has been much below · that of former railways. It must, however, be hori1e in mind that the figures which appear in .the Rail ways Commissioners' Report represent only the booked capital expenitit~p·e Q~l th9~e H!l9S !li~ tb9 close. of the financial year. They do not include all the capital expenditure incurred in the initial equipment of the lines; and further expenditure on capital account will, as a matter of com·se, be necessary as the develop ment of the districts (lemands increased accommodation at the ~t!l-tjon~., On the I Ith September1 1893, the Dimboola and Boo1·t Raihoays Conatruction Act I 893 (No. I 3 12) was passed, authorizing lines from Dimboola to Jeparit and from Boort to Quambatook.

The Nathalia and Picola Railway c;ogstniCtion Trust, C011S~it!Ite4 by th~ qoverno:r iP Cpnncil z6th September, 1893, under Act No; u88, notified the Minister, through its Secretary, on the 7th March last, that the Numurkah Shire Council decliuecl to act furthel' as a Railways Constl'nction Trust. No steps, therefore, havEi) been .taken for the acquisition of land for the railway. The Heidelberg and Eltham Railway Construction Trust was constituted by the Governor in Council ou the 21st August, I 893, um1er Act I 288. The Trust has eonveye With a view to provide work for the unemployed, and in anticipation of the sanction of Parliament, a line of railway through the Mallee from Wyeheproof to Kaueira and Sea Lake (a distance of 48 miles)· was surveyed hy eontmct let under instructions in March last,.n.ncl the lino is now in course of construction under the butty-gang system. ' A contract for s,ooo tons of· steel rails anrl 231 tons of fish-plates was let ·on 27th July, 1893, and another for 1o,ooo tons of steel rails and 462 tons of fish-plates on nth October, 1893. Contracts have also been let during the year for permanent-way fastenings of colonial manufacture.

Office of Engineer for Existing Lines, GENTLEMEN, Melbourne, 3 I st An gust, I 894. I have the honour to report that during the year ended 30th June, I 894, the way and works of the Victorian Railways were efficiently maintained. · The total expenditure for the year on'account or maintenance was £3zo,98o I7s. 4d. for an average of 297 miles of double and an average of 2,684~ miles of single line of way, or a total avemge length of z,98Ii miles of line maintained, as against £327,959 2s. zd. for nu avcmge of 297 miles of donble and an average of 2,636 miles of single line of .wity, or a. total avt;rage length of 2,933 miles of line maintaine(l in I 892-3, being at the rate per mile of £I 07 I 3 s. in I 893-4 as compared with £I I I 16s. 4d. in I 892-3. The avern.ge cost of maintenance per train mil~ iu I 893-4 has been 7'6od., as against 7'3 Hl. in I89z-3, and 8·38d. in I89I-2. There were I4 miles cf way (steel rails) used for renewals during the year, as against 6~ miles in the previou:> year, and 5 milES in I 89 (-z. In addition, 21 i miles of line .were re-laid with new steel rails taken from sidings. The nnmber of sleepers used for renewals ~~nd repairs was 8z,z78, as against 75,774 in the previous year, and 68,899 in I891-2. Progress wns made with the genernl re-armngement of the metropolitan stations nt Spencer-street, Flinder;:;-street, and Prince's-bridge, with n view to the interclmnge of tmffic. Contracts were let for alterations to girders at Point Nepean-road bridge on "the Brighton line, for subway a.t Middle Park, and for smaller accommodation works at various places. · An extensive flood occurred in August, 1893, in the Avon River, in Gippsland, by wl1ieh more than one-half of the bridge over this river on the Bri:tgolong line was carried away, and the bridge over the same river on the Bairnsdale line was sarionsly d:tmaged. The latter bridge has been temporarily repaired. The following new lines were tal{el~ over during the ye:u for maintenance :- Line or Section. I..~Cngth in Dates when Mn.intenance .Miles. con1menced.

New sidings have been brought into use at Bendigo providing more convenient access to the • corporation cattle and sheep yards. The total length of these new sidings is I mile 12 chains. Owing to. the small quantity of work in band, .the workmen on the permanent staff (except those engaged on the permanent way) worked only s! da.ys a week throughout the year, and, where practicable, the casual labour engaged fo"r extra works in the Metropolitan district has been employed only half time in order to give work to as many men as possible.

I beg leave to submit my report on the working of the Locomot.ive Carriage and Waggon _Branch for the twelve ( 12) mouths ending 3oth June, I 894. The rolling-stock and plant have been kept m good working order, and the trains run at n considerable rctluction of cost on previous ,years.

Number of ·men employed at 3oth June ... 3,415 3.335 3,017 Equivalent number if working full time ... 3,4I5 ... 3,231 2,685 Short Timc.-The working time at Newport and Port Melbourne has been further reduced to fom days and a half, o£ eight hours each, per week since znd September, 1893. The principle of short time has also been extended to the running-sheds and wh.erever practicable. A number of cleaners have been also transferred to t.bc Existing Liuc;; Branch. Taking short t.ime into account the Branch is now worked with 16 less ollicers and 546 men less than in I 892-3. / Lubricating Oils.-Considerable saving, amounting to upwards of · 2 set per train mile, equal to 40 per cent. or fully £1o,ooo per annum on present train mileage, ha~ been effected without loss o.f effideney during the past year by substituting mineral oil, obtained under contract, for castor, colza, and lard oil, and by the exercise of rigid economy and by improverl means of luhrica,ting; some of the classes of engines now us() less than half the oil per Ioo mi.les than that formerly consumed. Though these economies were initiated by me in June of 1893, their effect could not be fully felt during the year owing to a large stock of castor bei·ng on h.and all(l the time taken to fit engines with lubricators, &c. Further savings in cleaners' and other stores !Ja.ve Leen made and will be largely added to during the coming year. ' Coal.-N otwi thstanding every care in the use of coal the consumption per train mile has increased. The conditions of loading are praetieally the same ns £or the last three (3) years, so therefore the increase can only be accounted for by the fact that a larger percentage of inferior coal was used during the past year than heretofore. The following is a comparison of the averages of coal used per train mile and the percentage of Victorian coal consumed for the last three (3) years:- Average Percentage Train Miles. -·- -· · ·-:PeFTtaril--·· -·· --- · Victorian Coal ~me. to total Coal. lbs. I I ,807,677 45"9 ro,775, 1 34 46·6 10,14 5,307 49' 5 Though 629,827 less miles were run in 1893-4 than I892-3 more coal was burnt. If the consump tion per mile in 1893-4 had beeq the same as in 1891-2, viz., 45'9 lbs. per mile, there woultl have been I6,4r8 tons less used. The rate paid for Victorian coal should be more commensurate with its commercial value. · • Handling of Fuel.-The system of having the work of loading .and uulomllug coal, firewood, &c.,· performed by contract instead of by day labour hail resulted in a considerable saving to the Department, the OX,POnditura in this item having been reduced by £3, I 78 for the year. 2 s.-No.. I. B 18 Repairs.-The following n.re the principal repairs and works that have been executed during the year, viz., :zo4 engines, 34 I carriages nnd vans, and I,995 waggons overhauled and fnlly repaired at the Newport and Port Melbourne workshops, and about 355 engines overbauletl and repaired at eonntry and other depots. U P'''ards of :z I ,ooo carriages, vn.ns, and waggons bnve been overlmu led nt Prince's-bridge and Spencer-street, and light repairs effec.tetl-to 96I carringes and 10,795 waggons. ~hree thousand .three hundred and eighty-nine (3.389). truck .covers.· have ue~m- repaired·, and 930 new covers supplied and charged to Loco. expE'nses. A considenible quantity of interlocking and signal work, staff-boxes, and other work has been executed for· the Eidstiug· Lines, Traffic, and Telegmph Branches and Defence Department. · New work.--One ( 1) first cl~ ss carriage "A" n.ncl one (I) second cln.ss " B" lmve been rebuilt, and 30 "H" and 26 " U ''· trncks luwe been constructed, one ( 1) " AA)) cnrriage altered to a Stn.te carriage, · and nine (9) cnrs converted in to " A !3D's" in the Newport shops during the yen.r. These cost £ q.,ooo, of which £I 1,7 40 has bee a c1mrgctl to working expcu~cs. Two of the "N" class engines. for use on branch lines hn.ve been converted so as to proviue through communicat.iou for use on branch lines. Boilers.-I regret that dnring the year the boiler of 297 "R" class exploded. The cause was dne to grooving of the plates of some repairs exeented in 1888. The occnrrence pointed to the necessity of more freqnent ana ·.systematic cxaminMion of boilers, which is being ca-rried ont. The following new boilers hava been Jltted aaul rep!tirs executed dming the year :~Ic new locomo.tive boilers, 3 new firecl!oxes, 3 new pttmping-engine boilers, 61 ·boilers examined, retnbetl, and thoroughly repaired, 155 boilers examined nnd tested. The abtlve is consillembly in excess of boiler work executed in auy previous year. A::cles.-T\velve new crank axles have been fitte.d during the year, und a much more frequent anc1 rigill system of exainination of axles, tires, &c., instituted. }Jalancing.--Thc wheels of an eugine of the "Ji" class have been balanced, and have been runniug several months ";ith gootl.resnlts. Steps are being taken to balance the wh?le 0f the engines requiring same. TTactive Power of Engiues.-C<;>nsiderat.ion is being given to this subject. In several of t~Je classes I am of opinion greatly increased p_owm· can Le obtn.iued without a vct·y large outlay. Coal 1'rucks.-Several experi!Jwnts were made with cool trucks tlnriug the season.
