Mtge. & trust Co., assisted by Coverdale & Colpitts of N. Y., consulting engineers, made a report on tho property (seo V. 104, p. 1700), concluding in substance: 1. Tho project as a whole is sound and Its traffic resources should de velop rapidly under normal immigration and labor conditions. 2. Its general topographic features are favorablo and its physical property Is modern and generally in good condition; but incomplete as to certain im portant features; expenditures for maintenance should be increased. 3. Tlio capital invested appears to have been secured economically and expended wisely. In our judgment tho road could not be duplicated for anything like its cost. 4. Its fixed capital liabilities cover all of its 9,513 miles of line owned or operated except 58 miles of trackage. They include: Bonds and equip ment notes, $282,127,431; short date notes, loans, &c. (V. 102, p. 1981), $102,080,252; total, $384,207,683. [Income chargo convertible debenture stock and common stock are not Included.] 5. Outstanding short-date notes, temporary loans, &c., which must be funded, amount to $86,202,085, against treasury assets of $103,238,790. 6. Wo estimate tho system’s net cash requirements for completion of terminals, extensions and branches (for most part already tinder construc tion), miscellaneous impts. and working capital at S54.000,000 over a threo-ycar period, and at $86,000,000 for five-year period. 7. Wo estimate the total cash requirement atS67,000,000for three-year period and at $101,000,000 for five-year period. 8. Wo estimate the fixed capital liabilities at S462,000,000, excluslveof Income chargo convertible debenture stock at end of threo-ycar period, or $46,569 per mile; and at $496,000,000 at tho end of fivo years ($47,715 per mile). 9. We estimate that tho capital invested will amount to $521,000,000 at end of tho three years, and to $5 5 5 ,0 0 0 ,0 0 0 at end of five years. 10. Wo estimate the gross revenue at $67,744,000 and profit and loss surplus at $329,000 for the first year, following tho completion of tho three year program, and at $80,320,000 and $4,615,000 during the firs year fol lowing tho five-year program.

Tho company claims that tho road in question has not been completed within tho meaning of tho con tract and that therefore thoy aro not obliged to oporato It nor provido it with tho stipulated amount of rolling stock ($20,000,000 worth).

Government L o a n . —Tho liabilities of the Grand Trunk Pacific Ry. Co. began to accumulate against not rovonuo In Jan. 1916 and as tho Grand Trunk Ry. was not in a position, owing to tho war, to assume the burden, the Canadian Parliament voted to grant tho Pacific Company an $8,000,000 6% loan payablo on demand and secured by mortgage. Tho proceeds were to meet interestforat least a year upon tho securities of tho company, to meet deficit in operations and to purchaso rolling stock (V. 102. p. 1811, 1892, 1982,2166). Tho amount of interest guaranteed by the Grand Trunk Co. is about $4,000,000 annually, which includes intorest on tho Govern ment loans of $25,000,000, to which must bo added tho interest on tho amount spent on branch lines, over and above tho amount for which bonds have been or will bo guaranteed by tho priovincial Governments. It is expected tho provincial Governments will issuo additional bonds to cover some of this amount, leaving probably about $8,000,000 due to tho Grand Trunk Ry. Co. Tho amount of interest guaranteed by the Government, amounts to about $2,378,000 per annum.
