Canal Company was in the executive lic works of the te, Controlier Aa mitted by President Gorman for the fiscal year ending Sist of May, 1873, which shows that the rev from all sources for the was 8. The total expenses during that eriod were $208,487.72, lea next revenue or the year of $245,446.00, w! with the bal- ance in the from the preceding year ot $52,308.48, leaves the payment of Hoat- ing debt and interest on preferred construction bunds $365,754.48. The revenue for the past year shows an increase over 1X 34, and over 1872 of $6.549.%3. The coal tonnage tor the year ending May 3ist, 1570, was 714703 tons, for 1871, 867,570 tons; for 1872, 772,273 tons. The decrease on account of expenses, ordinary and extraordinary, and the pay of officers ) and with 187 The appropriation heretofore madeon account of interest on preferred construction bonds was sufficient to pay the entire amount due up to and including coupons falling due January 1, 1857. Of the amount so appropriated there remained in the handsof the financial agents of lex: ler Brown X Sons, ore t day of March last the sum of $7 the coupons representing which have veen presented. Some of then isknown, are being withheld, awaiting the decision in the suit instituted by W. W. Corco- ran in the District of Columbia. The principal improvements made under the recommendation of William K. Hutton, late chief engineer of the company, have been com. pleted at a cost of $57,925.46, which has greatly improved the condition of the canal. V he report recommends improvements that are necessary ‘on account of damages to the ca. nal and increased tonnage, the cost of which, exclusive of steam pumps and dams, is esti. mated at $80,000, but the expenditures on that account should extend over a series of years to make the improvement without demaniling the payment on the bonded debt. The tolls are in- cents per ton on coal trom Cumb eorgetown. The report reviews the ficulty with the water lessees, and recites the tract and calls attention to its violation. The report expresses the interest felt by the com- pany in the improvement of the harbor at Yasbington, but expresses the conviction that Congress will not pass any law depriving the company of its valuable right ince the adjournment of Congress, a small portion of that property, with a tro the Potomac river of 350 feet, has 20) perannum, amd in ition to the cures a trade to the canal during the present year of sixteen thousand tons gas coal, which has heretofore been delivered via Balti Adding the tolls to the rent, the pos- of this wharf increases your revenue 000 per annum, or for the next 25 years f As your trade increases, the entire perty in Washington will become equ valuable. It is, however, possible that the plan proposed for the improvements of the city and harbor of Washington cannot be carried out without a surrender by thiscompany of a portion of the old canal and tow-path fronting on the river between Easby’s Point and Irth street. In suck an event it will be highly advantageous to the interest of this company to dispose of such portion as may be required upon liberal erms, The fact of the Sowing demand for Camber- land coal is alluded to, showing that the bus!- hess must increase. The report also says: ‘The Western Maryland railroad extension to Wil: lamsport will be completed before the close of na open! ind a considerably increased trade in coal must pass over your canal to supply i demand. — Heretofore and now the wharf charges at Cumberland and Georgetown have been within nine cents a ton of the amount charged ror tolls by the company for 134 milesof canal, (the aver. wharts being 43 cents, tolls now 51 cents r ton.) These charges should be reduced at fifteen cents per ton. ——— the completion of the outlet locks produce that result, but if boats were unloaded Promptly upon arrival they would realize larger Profits at reduced rate of freight charges. “Ts reduce the eost of tri tion to a minimum is egy ued to our future trade. With the present high rates for wharfage and freight, the «difference in favor of canals, as com- — with railroad transportation, is 47 cents a , and we are a that when the pro- vements are completed, anda a Icom of onngsonahcant ware ying capacity of the boats’ will be in x that the cost can be reduced 30 cents a ton. which would makea difference in favor of canal of 77 cents a ton.
