THE CAMDEN AND AMBOY DATLItOAD i
LEASE SUO ULD IT BE CONS UMMA TED?
To the Editor of the Evening Telegraph.
I have no'expectatlonjof being able "to storm GU
bralt with a pop-gun,' no expectation, and bHt little
hope that anything I can Bay will arrest what appears
now to be almost an accomplished fact; as I con
ceive, the most disastrous fact possible, for the
commercial Interests of Philadelphia, the trans 'er
to Jersey city of all the facilities or the great Penn
ylvania Railroad for building up at ear own
wharves a great, an unlimited foreign trade, on
the solid and Immovable basis of the cheapest pos
sible supply of the consumption of the world, with
the vast, the unlimited export products of the great
tributary WeBt
When this shall be consummated, let us ask that
the name of that railroad be changed to "Jersey
City, New York, and Hreat Western Railroad," and
that the pi'e of buildings on Third and Fourth
streets and willing- alley be removed to some
suitable location beyond our limits, where they shall
not insult our citizens by a constant reminder of
lOBt opportunities and false pretensos.
In order to place upon record these views, which I
have personally urged as I have had opportunity, I
have embodied, very Inadequately aud feebly, what
I deem to be the true relations of this Camden and
Am boy lease to the commercial interests primarily,
and to all the Interests mediately, whether manufac
turing, mechanical, or vested, of this city. I throw
tnem out tentatively, as a possible means of arousing
the attention of business men and capitalists to a
view of this matter not generally entertained, but
capable, to my apprehension, of all but absolute
demonstration. My lirst proposition Is that all
railroads, being Institutions, artidclal bodies, created
by the State for public uses ; endowed by the State
under the exercises of Its highest sovereign preroga
tive, that of eminent domain ; with the vast privilege,
the power to take to their own use private property,
Without the assent and against the will of its
owner, are thereby made and constituted pabllc
corporations, having a dual responsibility, owing
duties as well to the pa alio as to their stock
holders. Second. The Pennsylvania Railroad, ff-as origi
nally built from Philadelphia to Uarrlsburg by the
State, and from Uarrlsburg to Pittsburg by capital,
mostly Philadelphia capital, raised witti great labor
and exertion on the part of the citizens, and a heavy
subscription to Its stock by the city In Its corporate
capacity, when the pecuniary success of this, as of
all other railroads, was by no means assured ; and so
built, as the directors In their last report officially
acknowledged, to promote the trade aud
business or Philadelphia, and therefore the
Pennsylvania Railroad is pe:uiarly a
public Institution or Philadelphia, and owes to It
and to its business" Interests, besides (even before)
Its duty to Its stockholders, a peculiar duty. If this
Is so, then the city government, with the citizens at
large, have a perfect moral rinht, to interpose a
positive prohibition against any arrangement or the
directors, or that corporation which shall have Tor
Its rull development as a certain even a probable
consequence, the Infliction or lasting Injury on
the business, present or prospective, of this city, and
any such arrangement shonld not be devolved upon
the stockholders of that or any other road, and be
determined by them by stock t ote as a mere ques
tion of protlt and loss.
Now let us apply these positions to this Camden
and Amboy lease. The Pennsylvania Railroad has
connections with New York through the New Jer
sey roads, both by way of Allentown and by the
Junction Railroad, without touching our city pro
per. They now propose to absorb the New Jersey
companies, and to switch ott" over them to New
York all their heavy freight, at an expense of some
two and a half or three millions per year, and to ex
pend a sum of money at Harslmus Cove at which
'the ' United Companies have' stood aghast
and paralyzed, not less than five mil
lions, and, beyond that, a sum to which no
present limit can be set, for bringing tne ground
above water and building np there a vast depot,
docks, etc., for the receiving and shipping of West
ern products.
Now this can be accomplished and made profitable
only and just In proportion as It snail antagonize the
commercial advancement and export trade of this
city, to the promotion of which that corporation
ewes Instead the devotion of Its best energies and
exertions.
TUB OPPOSITE riCTUUE.
If the directors ol the Pennsylvania Railroad
would issue $8,000,000 of Btock pledged to the Im
provement of the seventy acres of land owned by
them bought by them for the purpose, and above
water on tne South Delaware front of our city, and
would improve the same by suitable and sufficiently
capacious docks, wharves, storehouses, and sidings,
having previously extended their own road from
West Philadelphia thereto: and would erect store
houses and an elevator or sufficient capacity and
approved construction, and would thereby,
and by reliable assurances, pledge them
selves to a loyal and continuous devotion
or the vast capacities or that road to the purpose or
making Philadelphia, at whatever cosfrns kntrepot
for the supply or the market or the world with the
enormous and enormously increasing Southwestern,
Western, and Northwestern products at the lowest
cost possible, with reasonable protlt to the road.
The merchants and citizens or Philadelphia would,
bn instant notice, take such stock for such uses,
and would demonstrate to the President and
directors of that road that Philadelphia
has "the money and the men to handle and to
manage all they could bring to them," and would
prove that the assertion of their late report that an
outlet through New York is necessary for that pur-
pose Is not well founded ; but that, giving them the
produce, they will guarantee the men, the money,
and also the ships to handle and to dispose of all
they can bring to them, and as much more If offered
from other sources. Merchandise commands ships,
commands money, secures men.
Now let us put the whole matter Into the form or
a short preamble and a short resolution, which
ought to regulate the determination and conduct or
oar city, Legislature, and our citizens:
Whereat, This is the critical epoch In our com
mercial life, the turning-point when It Is to be de
cided whether the powerful, the almost omnipotent
energies of our own railroad shall be loyally and in
telligently employed to the use of Its proper mas
ters, or shall be blindly and lmprovidently driven
Into the service of a rival community; when the
question is to be decided, and decided for all time,
whether Jersey City or the wharves of Philadelphia
shall teem with the renewed life of a great foreign
commerce, a commerce essential to the maintenance
and proper extension of our manufacturing aud me
chanical prosperity ; therefore
Jiesolved, That the City Councils and the citizens
at large will energetically use all the power and In
fluence they possess to prevent this suicidal trans
fer; and the managers of the Pennsylvania Railroad
be invoked by every consideration of duty and patri
otism to reconsider aud change their intention and
withdraw their proposition before It is too late ; aud
the business men and capitalists of the city that they
earnestly examine the subject, and. if these views
are correct, that they bestir themselves to prevent
these unhappy results.
Since the above was written I perceive that reso
lutions in accordance with the views above ex
pressed have been Introduced into Common Council
and referred to the Committee on Railroads. It Is
to be hoped and expected that Mr. Buzby, chairman
of that committee, will give It early and efficient
consideration. A Jt l''
