For the year covered by this report the revenue from transportation was $92,238,523.28 an increase of $9,174,703.16; revenue from operations other than trans• portation was $933,337.41 an increase of $69 803.24; revenue from outside operations (connected with, but in addition lo transportation by rail) was $4,517,996 90 an increase of $839,380.43. The total gross revenue from all operations was $97,689,857.59 an increase of $10,083,886.83. All sources of revenue from transportation have shown an increase with the ex• ception of the mail sendee. The United States Government has established a new basis of computing the weight of mail matter, resulting in a diminution of the compensa• tion of this company of approximately fourteen per cent from July 1, 1909. Freight revenue was $54,449,281.47 an increase of $5,888,099.98. The revenue freight carried amounted to 44,171,954 tons, an increase of 5,093,792 tons over last year, and with the exception of the year 1907 reached a higher total than in any other year of the company's history. The average tonnage for the four years 1905 to 1908 was 43,240,164, so that the traffic for the year 1909 was 931,000 tons above the average of the four best previous years. Large increases show in all mineral and manufacturing products, the decreases in the classified list of commodities being in food stuffs, such as grain, fruits and vegetables, live stock, dressed meats and other packing house pro• ducts, and dairy products. The largest increases occurred in bituminous coal, lumber, and miscellaneous manufactures, while ores, iron and machinery were carried in largely increased quantities. The revenue from passengers amounted to $29,001,911.18 an increase of $2,393,145.37. An increase in the number of local passengers carried of 1,412,711 and an increase of 1,661,266 in commutation passengers carried, with a slight increase in the average dis• tance of travel and in the average receipts per mile, show that the passenger traffic over this company's lines is in a more satisfactory condition than in 1908, during which it suffered from the stagnation caused by the financial panic of the end of the year 1907.
