The Pennsylvania Railroad Company prints in another place a full statement of Its business in the year of ibih. The re port is made at this time for the purpose of furnishing the stockholders of the company with information which will enable them to know what has been done and to vote intelligently at the annual election next week. It Is prob able that, considering all the clrcunv stances, this great road never put out more favorable statement. The year 1S94 was and the times are uupropi tious, the Pennsylvania lost heavily In traffic and earnings, but the conduct of the property was such that the stock. holders will be more than pleased at the result. The figures do not show well, The whole system earned 11(5,000,000 gross less than in the previous year, but ad' mlrablc management cut oil expensss 1 3,000,000 and the loss in net was less than t3,000,000. All these figures, big as they are, are below those of any year since 1890, but only the Pennsylvania Railroad deals with such amounts In this country. The following are the figures for three years, east and west of Pittsburg : 1894 Gross 1122,003.000 Exp 85,143,174 1893 113059,788 I SILKS') 1892 H39,133,fcC0 8, 152,783 Net J33 60,S25 839 508,1:29 810,080,877 The lines east of Pittsburg made very good showing. The gross earnings were $58,701,284, the expenses were $40,3JB,.4Q and the net earnings were $l'8,340,338. This lattersum wasincfeased to $23,853,733 by interest on investments &c, and after paying all charges and dividends the sum of $893,009 was tram ferred to the credit of profit and loss account. This, it will be remembered was in a year when the railroads of tho X'nited States lost $150,000,000 in gross earnings, when all matters commercial were in a great state of depression and when the rates for carrying freight were at an exceedingly low point. But the Pennsylvania Railroad did much morb than pay its stockholders the ordinary dividend. The sinking funds were kept up, the high standard of equip xnent and roadbed was maintained at an expense which exceeded the gross earn. ings of many railroad companies and the sum of $1,385,271 was applied to extraor dinary renewals paid out of the net In come and charged off. There was also charged off the sum ot $4,217,020 in the adjustment of accounts for advances to the United Companies of New Jersey for construction and improvements in recent years. This heroic measure would have challenged attention at any time, but it is especially noticeable at a period when railroads are husbanding their ascounts and struggling to make a good appear ance. It is acts like this that give tho stockholders of the company, here and abroad, confidence in Mr. Roberts and Ills lieutenants. The amount to the credit of profit aad loss la now $23,155,632, and it will be remarked that notwithstanding tha depression In business the cash amoumt carried to the credit of profit and loss in 1894 was almost equal to that of 1893. .Another striking fact Is the enormous income of the Pennsylvania Railroad from its investments. It has a long list of securities of other corporations which It owns and which year after year furnish tha company with a sum more than equal to the Interest on its funded debt. In the lean year of 1894 this income from this ource aggregated nearly $5,000,000. These securities are generally those of companies which have been created by the Peunsyl vauia Company and are part ot tha system. The cost ot these securities to the Pennsylvania Railroad Is $119,005,055, but the real value Is much greater and they yielded nearly 4 per cent, last year. No new bonds or stocks were issued dur lng the year, the changes in these items aggregating less than $300,000. The total stock outstanding at the close ot the year was $129,293,200 and the funded debt was 82,756,265. The owner of Pennsylvania Railroad I 1 wcftD shares will And It difficult to discover any trace of hard times la the results of the year. The property has grown stoauliy in wealth, whether there was flood or panic, and Mr. Roberts hits conscien tiously performed every obligation of conservative and honorable management. flo jcrapples with 140 corporations, representing 1800,000,000 capital, with op- parent ease, and surmounts every diffi culty without effort.

Tjiwyer Guthrie Declares That the I.nw Is Unconstitutional ltccnusn It Is Glass Leg islation, Affecting Less Thnn Two Per Cent, or Our Citizens. Washington, Mnrch 8. Tho supromo court did not roach tho Income tax cases until 3 o'clock yesterday, when W. I). Guthrlo was recognized to open tho caso for tho nppollnnts. Ho appeared ospcclally for Mossrs. Pollock and Hydo, Avho appeal tho cases against tho Farmers' Contl ncntnl Trust companies, of Now York, from tho decision of tho United States court of appeals for tho southern district of Now York. Mr. Guthrie tlovotod himself to an out line of tho urguinont proposed to lo made by tho counsel for tho appellants, nud had not concluded when tho court nt 4 o'clock adjourned for tho day. Ho stated that they would dopond prin cipally upon showing thnt tho presout iu como tax law Is unconstitutional because of Its want of uniformity, nnd quoted nt length from tho provisions of tho law to show that tho tax Is not uniform, contend ing that congress had Ho right uudor tho constitution to levy a tax, duty, oxclse or impost which was variublo or lacking In uniformity as to individuals or corpora tlons.becuuso It was tho fundamental rule that burdens in those respects should be equally upon' nil allko. Mr. Guthrie said tho two cases against tho trust companies Woro very similar, but that ho would dovoco hlmsolf principally to tho Pollock caso. Ho said Mr. Pollock was n shareholder In this company, tho net Incomes or profit of which during tho past year subject to tho Incomo tax ex ceeds $300,000, of which $50,000 represents rents of real estate, and about fGO.000 In vestments in municipal bonds, which lat tor luvostment could not, ho claimed, bo taxed under a former decision of tho su promo court. Mr. Guthrlo asserted that tho provision of tho law exempting nil Incomes under $1,00J would causo it to fall upon less than 2 per cent, of tho population of tho United States, and tho law was thoroforo class legislation. Ho also showed that tho tax was not uniform as reeards cornoratlons. of which a favorod class woro oxompted, as, for lnstauco, mutual Insurance com panies nnd building associations, as well ns partnerships and roligious aud bonovo lont institutions. As to tho exemption of churchos and bonevolont concerns counsel would have nothing to say, as there was enough In the other exemptions lu cases whero tho ex emptions wero in tho interest of share holders, though called by another name, to afford sufficient text for all thoy could say. As Illustrative of tho effect of tho opera tion of tho Iua- ho polntod out that uu in dividual owning real estate bringing an lucomo of JS.O'JJ would pay 580 tax, whllo a corporation would bo required to pay doublo that amount. Ho also Instanced tho caso of a partnership of flvo persons doing a business amounting to $20,000 a year which would bo required to pay no tax, whllo a corporation composed of tho samo porsons would bo compelled to pay S 100. Iu a word, ho said tho application of tho law would vary according to owner ship. Tho corporation was only an aggregation of individuals, aud in most corporations a part at least of tho stock was owned by tho middlo classes, liaferrlug to tho oxomp tlon mado in tho interest of mutual Insur ance companies ho assorted that in tho United States there woro 1,900 such com pauies aud that of thoso 1,000 woro doing business on tho mutual plan, and ho said that in Now York alono tho wording of tho act oxomptlng such companlos would ro- llovo a thousand million dollars worth of property from its oporntion. Tho leading mutual Insurance companlos would socuro tho benefit of an exemption ou its incomo amounting to $200,003 por yoar, whllo Its rlyal, organized on tho stock plan, would havo to pay Its Incomo tax. This ndvan tago was glvon In tho law, ho assorted, simply bocauso somo ono wanted to favor Itamo particular mutual company. Mr. uutnrlo also dwolt upon tho oxomn tiou on tho Intorost of tho building and loan associations, which woro rollovod of tho annual payments of $000,000,and whoso assots, it had boon nssertod, wore greater thuu tuo combination or capital of all the nntlonal banks. All that men havo to do to ovado tho operations of tho law would bo to organlzo building and loan associations, Tho present arraugomont is for Mr. So- ward to follow Mr. Guthrlo In bohalf of tho nppollants, und for Assistant Attorney General Whltuoy to spoak noxt for tho government, to bo followed by ex-Senator Edmunds, who will represent Mr. Mooro In his suit for an injunction against Com- mlssionor of Internal Revenue Miller, Mr. J. C. Cartor will follow for tho trust ompanlos, and Joseph M. Choato will ;loso for Pollock and Hydo; but this ordor 01 procedure may uo changed. Terrible Slaughter of Chinamen. Washington, March 8.
