WisiiNGToN, Nov, 6.—The report of the corumissioner of railroads contains full in- formation in regard to se 1 railroad com- panies coming under the jurisdiction of his offico for the fiscal yenr ending June 30, 1800, As toimprovements on the bonded roads. the commissioner says : “I am able to report that many im provemonts have recently been made. Improvements where they are made upon the bonded roads are of special value to the gov: ernment, as they notonly increase the earn- ing capacity of the roads, but add largely to the value of the property.” The amount received from the bonded roads this year was slightly below the ameunt 1 ved for the preceding year. This, the comuissioner says, is not owing to ade ¢in business, but to the fact of un- usual expenditures by the Union Pacific company is the purchase of new rolling stock. “Asto the present financial relations between the bonded roads and the govern- wment, the comuissioner say me unfortinate cond exist now thatalways existed ted in aid of ‘their constru issued, viz—that the amounts ceiued from the ronds fall the amount of intere from subsidy roads.
