The gross revenues of the line for 1884 are equal
to $41,226 per mile of main line of roads (368 miles),
and exceed in the aggregate those Of 1863 $2,867,-
644.71.
Tale increase is $1,059,388 36 upon passengers and
emigrants ; $1,231.98 upon United States mails ; $l,-

freights.
A decrease 000nrs in misoellaneens receipts of
$32,046 96, and in United States troops of $2,919.30.
The whole number of passengers carried over
.the road during the year was 2,866,213, and the
average distance travelled by each passenger aLtty
two miles.
The number of tons of. freight moved (including
179,491 tone of fuel and other materials transported
for the Company) was 2,764,876, embracing 1,086,779
tone of Coal.
The increase in the coal traffic is 188,580 tons, and
the wholo tonnage of the road exceeds that of last
year 310,180 tons.
The ordinary expenditures for working and Main
taining the Company's roads were 113,225,669 67,
which is equal to 55 7.10 per oent. of its revenues, or
72 410 percent, including all the expenditures made
for work done on its own line, and tho outfit of the
Philadelphia and Erie Railroad.

The lose upon the Canals daring the previous
year was $15,217.80.
In consequence of the original faulty location and
construction, and the neglect of these works by their
original proprietor, they have not yielded results
equal to our anticipation. It Is believed, however,
that they will become eventually a source of con
siderable net profit. The Company has expended
upon their maintenance and improvement, since
they oanie Into their possession (seven years and live
months), $1.808,386.22, and received $1,701,811.34 in
tolls for their use.
The low charges necessarily maintained for coal
upon the railway of the Company has prevented
the transfer of that commodity—the only one of Ml
portion available for its support to any material
extent—to its canal, except when shipped to points
not reached by the road or its connections.
The earnings of the Philadelphia and Erie Rail
road in 1884 were :

Showing aWs in Operating the line Of.. $43,154 80
The line was not opened for business until the
17th of October last, the beginning of the inclement
season of the mountainous region it traverses and
then with an incomplete track, insaffloient sidings
and shops to meet the wants of the transportation
department ; hence its operations have been oon
duoted at much extra cost, and have necessarily
been confined to the accommodation or Its local
traffic. The results of the year's business is there•
fore no evidence of what may be expected hereafter
from this great work. The whole line is still in
complete, and very little of its superstructure is
founded upon ballast, so essential to the main
tenance of the track in good condition under a
heavy transportation.
The whole revenue of the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company for its several lines is as fellows :

The semi annual dividends, in order to afford
time to make up the dividendnbooke, will be paid

instead of the 15th, as heretofore.
The surplus net profits of the Company mentioned
in our lam annual report as applicable to the rail
ways, ommenoed under an expectation of receiving
Ito financial aid, and considered necessary to the
full development of the trahfic of this Company,
hale equalled anticipations; but the cost of these
works, for reasons that are familiar to all, has
largely exceeded the estimate then made. Prom
an an alysis of these expenditures it appears that It
now requires about three dollars to perform the
office of one dollar In 1861. The rate of wages has
not Increased In this ratio, but it seems to be a
general principle that as the remuneration of labor
is increased, its character and product decreases.
This state of things could be met by increased
charges upon transportation during their continu
ance as compensation for the depreciation of the
currency, if the legal rates were not limited; but,
tinder existing circumstances, the stoppage of all
Improvements, that have not progressed to an ex
tent, that true economy will justify their early,,com
pletion, is the only remedy left, At the present
prices for work, the prospective profits for the con
etnietion of new railways must be large to induce
capital to enter into their construction.
The cash capital required to carry on the opera
tions of the Company, invested in materials for
repairs of its road and machinery, and balances in the
bands of Agents and Treasurer, amounted at the
close of the year to the large sum of $2 8781847 67
.1,072,638 99 more than at the same time tire pre
vious year which is chiefly due to the enhanced cost
of everything entering into the construction of rail
ways and their equipment.
The estimates of the Philadelphia and Erie Rail
road Company for the expenditures on construction
account in 1804, for reasons already mentioned, have
- fallen much below the cost of the work undertaken,
while the political condition of the country has pre
-Vented the sale of the Sterling Bonds received from
that Company for these outlays upon satisfactory
terms. AU of the dollar Benda purchased under
the contract and lease of that road have been sold.
Of the £1500,000 Ster li ng Bonds purchased, £218,800
havebeen placed in the Slaking Fond in exchange
for Pittsburg, Fort Wayne, and Chicago Railway
Company Bonds since sold, ' and £40,200 have been
disposed of, leaviog on hand and in London £314,-
009. These Bonds have the guarantee of this Com
pany, and in view of the unusually large basis upon
which they are founded, constitute as safe an invest
intent of capital as can be made.
The expenditures required upon the Philadelphia
and Erie line to place it in a condition to accommo
date a busineta sufficient to meet the expectations
of the COMpany are Still very large. The advances
for : this work, during the •year, exclusive of rolling
stook and shop machinery, have been :
For construction Account $1,805,800 29
For Materials; on hand for construction
and repairs 468.761 ; 69
$2,275,56t 38
Which is in excess of the seeurities purchased by
this Company ander its contract with the Philadel
phia and Erie Railroad Company, $889,598 69, ex
olueive of material account (108,764,09), a portion
of which will be applied to working the road.
. To cover these expenditures which are increasing
monthly, and complete its line, that Company is
asking Of the Legislature the privilege of increas
ing its mortgage indebtedness $3,000,000, all of
Which will be necessary for the completion Of the
requisite additional sidings, shops, wharves, ?pas
senger and freight stations to meet the demands of
its anticipated traria.
Of the securities received from the - Steubenville
and Indiana Railroad Company, under its reorgani
tation, for aid extended to that Company, and for
advances made towards the completfon of the Ilne
east of Steubenville, there remains in the hands of
the Treasurer ler sale $1,805,000. These Bonds are
all flretelaas securities,and will be disposed of,as
theniarket absorb them, to meet expenditures' .
tow. •
The investments made by this Company in Stock
and Bondi of the Pittsburg, Fort Wayne, and Ohl-
Cage Railway Company to insure its Completion
have all been sold, except 1,200 shares of its Stook,
and $290,000 of Its Zbird Mortgage Bowie, at a oon
aiderable advance upon their cost. Tim interest of
the Company Sin the Bedford Railroad, and in the.
'"New Cutts (Lawrence county) Railroad, received
Tor aid extended towards the completion of these
write, has also been (Deposed of .upon mattsfactory
terms.
A shorter and =independent connection between
the western terminus of the Pennsylvania Railroad
and the metropolis of _Ohio and its capital, has
always been deemed to be of the highest importance
to UM Company. The several attempts to mare
en& Js line have heretofore-failed ; on one route
from a misdirection of the means provided for the
object, and on the other from'absence of legislation
aeries the tongue Of land accidentally thrown Into
a State interested in promoting the success of rival
loads. These political impediments have finally
yielded to ;the independence of Western Virginia,
IbUt.too late avail ourselves of )he favorable eon
iggellOr the MO market at the Commeeeenient of
the existing war to enable the work to be premed
with vigor. Its construction has progressed steadily
since the eontraota have been recommenced, but at
a largely-increased cost upon the estimates tileteto
fore submitted. The line will not be ready for use
before the ensuing summer.
The delay in the progress of the work has also
thrown its completion into a period when the nego
tiation of the securities applicable to it has become
difficult, and the task or supplying the funds re.
quired to prevent the work from stopping has neces
sarily fallen upon this Company, in addition to the
heavy expenditures it had previously voluntarily
assumed to secure so important a connection by ex
tending its own road to the south Side of the Mo
nongahela liver.
The financial condition of the Steubenville and
Indiana Railroad Company, which was orginally
involved in embarrassment by a failure to complete
the line between Pittsburg and Steubenville, has
been successfully reorganized and its line extended
from Newark to Columbus, (thirty-three miles.) by
the purchase upon reasonable terms of a ono-half
undivided interest in the Central Ohio Railroad and
its property at and between those places, thus
making the lino complete between Steubenville and
Columbus, and when the line across the State of
West Virginia Is opened it will form a continuous
railway, operated under one control, from the latter
city to Pittebtn—a distance of one hundred and
ninety-Ids miles.
Of the securities received from the Steubenville
and Indiana Railroad Company for assistance here
tofore extended to that Company, , and to effect its
reorganization, there remains in the hands of the
Treasurer for sale $1,805,000 First Mortgage Bonds,
of which 12776,000 bear seven per cent. interest per
annum. The Westorn Pennsylvania and the other
commutation roads, except the Pittsburg and Steu
benville, have been brought into productive use,
and it is believed that they will all eventually pay
interest upon the amounts contributed to their eon
struCtien, which, from reasons given In our last re
port, has exceeded more than two-fold the require
ments of the law.
o The construction of the Connecting Railway,
bartered to join the Pennsylvania Railway in
West Philadelphia with the Philadelphia and Tren
ton road at Frankford, a distanoelof seven miles,
has been commenced, and will be pushed to com
pletion as rapidly as circumstances will permit.
The right of way, ono of the chief elements of its
cost, has been mostly secured. This connection
will bring the line from New York to Harrisburg
and the West via Philadelphia within 12 miles of
the same distance as via Allentown,-and will doubt
less return to this end of our road much of the
travel whioh the delays and obstructions in passing
through this city have driven to other channels.
It is impossible, in the present conditiotV or the
currency and labor market, to estimate with any
precision what the demands upon the Treasury may
be for completing the lines already in progress un-•
der our auspices. The cost in currency has already
exceeded the estimates upon which they were un
dertaken.

For the line between Pittsburg and Steubenville
the sum of SSOO,OOO, and to extend the Pennsylvania,
Railroad to the Delaware river to meetthe demands
of the oil trade, which will probably be excluded by
law from the present Delaware terminus. the further
sum of $260,000, to which must be added for addi
tional outfit for the Philadelphia and Erie and our
own road $1,200,000, making In all 13,600.000, which
may be met, with but a small addition to oar sur
plus earnings, if the result of the year's business
should equal that of the past:-
Notwithstanding our unremitting efforts to impure
the best rails that are made, each succeeding year
adds Its testimony to those preceding it of the want
ors better material than that now need. In addl.
Lion to their rapid destruction from ordinary wear,
Is added the risk to the trains from their frequent
breakage.,To obviate this our new rails have been
increasedly depth to an extent (434 Inches) that
Will give them thirty per cent. additional vertical
strength, which it is believed will, with increased
care in the selection of ores and the manufacture of
the rails, prevent further damage from this 'source.
The steel rails introduced upon the road show no
evidence of wear, but their great coat at present
precludes their general introduction. The manu
facture of rails with a steeled wearing surface, re
ferred to in our last annual report, has not proved
successful upon a scale that would render it of
practical value.
The management of your railways for the last
two years has been attended with unprecedented
difficulties. A continually increasing business had
to be met by a decreasing supply of experienced
men to work them, to which during the past year,
there has been added an ind iscriminate drain upon
our forces to fill the armies and man the military
railways of the Government. For a time It was im
possible to procure for our trains even raw recruits
in sufficient numbers.
The superintendence of long lines of railways
having a large mixed business, involving as It does
the safety of the traveller, is i in ordinary times, a
trust of great delicacy and responsibility ; but
when, added to the usual risks,
there is the neeefi
eity of introducing into important posts untried
Men, and the frequent changes that this involves to
secure those that are responsible, the strain upon
the endurance of the officers and faithful employees
of the Company becomes as harassing and un
pleasant as it IS destructive to the machinery of the
road.
18,120 18
$308,615 23
To the difficulties mentioned we have had also to
encounter accidents arising from the inferior work- -
manship and materials that the great demand for
locomotives and oars has introduced, which there is
no practical means of obviating, when all that
could be produced has heretofore been Insufficient
to meet the demands of the Government and the
Railway Companies.
The Board, with a view to prevent the increased
capital of the Company from representing pro
perty acquired at the present inflated values, have
charged the large additions made during 1862,1868,
and 1864, to the equipment of the road, to the length
of double track, to the warehouses passengerata
tions, shops, and engine-houses, slime the suspen
sion of specie payments, to the running expenses of
the road. • These have amounted in the aggregate to
$6,337,865.65—a sum which, It Is believed, will more
than preserve the property of the Company repo-
Rented upon its books at its spool° value.
For information In greater detail In relation to the
operations of the Company's works the shareholders
are referred to the reports of Enoch Lewis, General
Superintendent; W. H. Wilson,
Chief Engineer;
John P. Laird, Superintendent of Motive Power
and Machinery on the Pennsylvania Railroad;
Thomas T. Wierman,Chief Engineer of the Canals,
and Joseph D. Potts General Manager of the Phila
delphia and Erie Railroad. and John A., Wilson, its
Chief Engineer. These officers and their assistants,
notwithstanding the unusual difficulties attending
the operations of their respective Departments
during the year, have fulfilled the duties confided to
them in a manner entirely satisfactory to the Board
of Directors.

Yesterday warrants for the payment of the City
bounty were issued to 40 men, of whom one was en
listed for four years, 13 for three years, and 28 for
one year. The credits were : Second w ard, 6 ; Third

To-day being a National holiday, the draft In the
First district is postponed till to-morrow. The
drawing will commence at 9 A. Pd. Now Is the
time to enlist. The rebellion Is drawing to a close,
and there is every probability that before the new
recruits can be placed in the field the war will be at
an end, and the armies will be disbanded. Volun
teers for ono year now receive $660 bounty, and if
the war suddenly terminates this money will be clear
gain to those who may now enlist ; and should the
war continue, a volunteer for ono year now receives
5742 in cash, besides found in clothing and food.
This is certainly better pay than can be made by
most men by remaining at; home. Besides the con
siderations of profit, the volunteer has the glorious
assurance of duty to ,his. country performed, and
when victory, soon to be followed by a happy peace,
shall perch upon our banners, he will have the glori
ous satisfaction of knowing that his hand forwarded
the groat work.

TES SHOOND•WAND SCHOOL BOARD.-APPLICATION
FOR A QC° WARRANTO.
B. Spencer Miller, Esq., on behalf of certain mom•
bars of the Second. ward School Board, made an appli
cation yesterday for a writ of quo warranto to be di
rected to /Mao Taylor, president, and John d. Mullen,
secretary of the board, to show by what right they ex
ercise their respective cases. It seems that there was
a political tie in the board, and that when it met on the
2d day of January last, for the purpose of organization,
airy Democrats and but fonr Republicans were present.
The board proceeded to ballot for a president, bat no
one receiving a majority, pending a third ballot, the
board adjourned to meet on Monday, the 9th of January.
On the latter day the board met, and the credentials of
a Republican member, who was absent at the first
meeting, were presented, but the president decided that
it was not in order to receive the same itt that time.
The complainants refused then to take any farther part
in the proceedings. ♦n election was proceeded with,
and Riego Taylor was declared elected president, - and
Jobn d Muilen secretary, although but six votes were
cast. It was alleged by the complainants that this
election was illegal and void, because of the refusal to
receive the said credentials, and because no duoram
voted.
Thomas Mullen Esq. presented the answer of the re
spondents, in which they claim even - If this) election
is declared void, that the board being a continuing
body, they ars the proper officers of the said board by
virtue of their election in 1864 until their successors are
drily elected. They admitted the allegation or the
cornPlainants. of the refusal of the president to receive
the credentials: but allege that as no appeal was ta
ken from the decision of the chair on the point of order,
they complainants were ezcluded and could not now
ask the court to interfere.
Henry M. Phillips, Esq., for the respondeats, argued
that the-Clourt of common Pleas had nojurisdlation in
this case. Ho contended that under the set.of Assembly
a quo warranto could not be issued otffi of that Conn to
inquire by what right the president of (ichobl Board

The world-wide rapntation which these Chimneys
have acquired is due to their acimowledgedcupertority
over all others. This superiority Ii derived from three
sources:
let. Being fifty per cent , heavier than the common
Chimney, they may be handled with much less care.
2d. The oval shape is an adaptation to the Sat dame,
the Chimney being at all points the same distance from
the heat 'so that the danger of cracking by tuteurvd eg- .
panic n is avoided
411. The material of which these Chimneys are manu
factured is uneuoalled by any other glum as a rapid
conductor of heal; and, practically, it is found that the
'combination renders them almost entirely free from
liability to destruction by the heat of the dame. Reuse
the obstacle in the way of the universal use of Carbon
Oil, found in the unreasonable expense for Chimneys,
has been met and removed by the introduction of- .
