RAILROAD rOM.MIS.MOX GIVES STATISTICS. Difficult for Uw Iluman Drain, lie Declare, to Analyze Decimals of Olio-Tenth of One Pit Cent Hate of Upturn Js Ah ImXirtant As the Value, suy Expert. BV LOWELL MELLETT. (United Press Staff Correspondent.) WASHINGTON, July 14. Clifford Thorne sat In a corner of a hotel room, stretched his legs till his feet rested comfortably In the middle of the room and fired off statistics like a Roman candle shooting sparks. The chairman of the Iowa state railroad commission Is the greatest known container of statistics and also one of the greatest unlouders thereof. He had Just unloaded several carload lots on the Interstate Commerce Com mission, but still had considerable f. o. b. Having established beyond question that not only does two and two make four, but that two billion plus two billion make four billion and having shoWn, the connection between these mathematics and the increase in rate? wanted by Western railroads, he pro pounded this question: "What constitutes a reasonable rate of return?" 1 Not being furnished an answer, he went on: "An error of one Per cent, made by the interstate commerce commission In fixing the rate of return that is reasonable is equivalent to a mistake of one billion dollars In the value on which it Is held the carriers are en titled to a return. Do you follow that? If five per cent Is reasonable return on the Investment In railroads, an error of one per cent amounts to one fifth. The alleged value of these western railroads Is 15,000,000,000 One fifth of five billion is one billion and there you are. "It Is very difficult for the human brain, with a sort of Intellectual ml croscope, to Intelligently analyze dec Imals of one-tenth of one per cent We can handle with more facility varla tlons of a hundred million dollars a year In the value of the property. One Is as Important as the other,. The rate of return Is certainly as import ant as the value. "If a railroad president Is asked, he will say 7 per cent Is reasonable. If a farmer, he says 3 1-J per cent. What Is reasonable on govern ment bonds Is not reasonable in a manufacturing security; what Is rea- sonable on the latter is not reasonable cn railroad securities, either stocks or bonds. More than half the wealth of this nation is Invested on a basis of four per cent or less. There are bil lions of dollars on deposit . in our savings banks drawing four and three per cent; billions in government bonds, drawing less than three per cent; billions in railroad bonds draw ing 4 1-2 per cent and billions of dol lars In our farms. "While some farms earn as high as 10 and 15 per cent It Is safe to say on the records they are earning an average of less than four per cent on their value. You cannot name a railroad that has been making regu larly more than five per cent on the total value of Its plant whose securi ties are not selling at above par in ordinary years. "The investor In the capital stock of these railroads Is entitled to a higher return than the investor In the bonds and If there were In existence a collosai financial giant with the ability to purchase whole railroad systems then we might find out the rate at which they are willing to buy a railroad. But railroads are not bought Individually. We buy and sell them piecemeal, by stocks and bonds. The market places of the country do not offer the best evidence of what the Investing public considers to be a reasonable rate of return on the stocks and bonds of railroads . "Taking all the stocks of our Northwestern group of railroads. weighing them In proportion to the amount of capital stock outstanding, their average price in the year 1914 amounted to 126.5. This Is a remark able demonstralon that the stocks ot these companies are worth 100 cents on the dollar in the eyes of its Invest ing public, although It is common knowledge that a large portion of them do not and never have repre sented bona fide Investments in the property. There is not . a railroad company In this or any other part of the United States that has paid 6 1-2 or 7 per cent dividends to Its stock holders whose stock ordinarily does not sell for more than 100 cents on the dollar. The railroads of this ter ritory are able easily to bond their property up to 65 per cent or "0 per cent of their value. If you could se cure to these railroad properties a return of 7 per cent on their total values, the stocks will be earning from 10 per cent to 15 per cent and they will be selling everyone of them from 150 per cent to 200 per cent of their par value. You will be giving to these roads more than what the public says is reasonable. Tlie) Hot Weather Test makes peo pie better acquainted with their re sources of strength and endurance.

II I'LL OF STEAMSHIP. in Tills Manner Huxnlan Dark is At talked and Sunk Americans Aboard Arc Saved Captain of Nor mandy Tells of Being Stojipcd by German and of TlireatH Made, LIVERPOOL, July 14. How an American ship is alleged to have been used as a shield by a German sub marine fur the sinking of another ves sel is the story related by members of the crew of the American bark Normandy, which has arrived here from Gulfport, Miss, The story is that the Normandy was stopped by a German submarine 60 miles southwest of Tuskar Rock, off the" southeast coast of Ireland. Friday night The captain was called aboard the submarine, where his pa pers were examined and found to show that the ship was chartered by an American firm January 5. American Craft Threatened. The captain of the bark. It was ac serted, was allowed to return to the Normandy, but under the threat that his ship would be destroyed unless he stood by and obeyed orders. These orders, It was said, were that he was to act as a shield for the submarine, which lay at the side of tne bark, hid ing itself from an approaching vessel. This vessel proved to be the Rus sian steamer Leo. Presently the sub marine submerged and proceeded around the bow of the Normandy, so the story went, and 10 minutes later the crew of the Normandy saw the Leo blown up. Twenty-five persons were on board, of whom 11 were drowned, including three stewardesses. Three Americans Saved. Those saved Included three Ameri cansWalter Emery, of North Caro line; Harry Clark of Sierra, and Harry Whitney of Camden, N. J. All these three men, when Inter viewed, corroborated the foregoing story. They declared that no oppor tunity was given those on board the Leo for saving life. The Leo was bound from Phlladel? phla to Manchester with a general cargo. The captain of the Normandy told the survivors he would have liked to signaled their danger to them, but that he dared not do so, because his uninsured ship would then have been instantly sunk. The steamer Leo sailed from Phila delphia June 25 for Leith under com mand of Captain Jerstrom. She was a vessel of 2324 tons and belonged in Helsingfors. She was built In 1903. The bark Normandy sailed from Gulfport, Tex., for Liverpool May 4, under command of Captain DeBuhr. She is a vessel of 1097 tons.
