The earnings of the Toronto railway last yvar were $31 208,619, or $140,000 more than in 1897. The company has spent something like $150,000 on bet- terments during the year. Aithoughl there is little profit in radial extension. everything that centers trade in Toronto increases the earning power of the Toronto railway as weil as of the allied suburban roads. General Man- ager Keating hasbeeu instructed to submit a report on the subject, and it is not improbable" thst the Scarboro and Mimico rOads will be extended in the summer. The Mimico railway, if it ran as far as O .kville, would tap a splendid fruit district, and part of the plan of extension is to run passen- ger cars with freight compartments to accommodate the country trade. Three freight cars would run to a central market, when they would disâ€" charge their produce. As trade devel: oped a. separate freight service and separate cars might come into use. Clause 16 of the street railway charter is said to give the compay power to carry freight over its tracks. lucid to tho Wetohmn.
