Adams Delivers Clear View On Frye Bill For Pacific Rails
Charles Francis Adams testifies before a House committee on Pacific railroads in Washington. He urges modifications to the Frye bill, arguing the Union Pacific should bear a heavier burden than the Central Pacific but rejects a total worst-case risk. He warns against overloading the Union Pacific and cites the need for railroads to earn profits, not become speculative Wall Street stocks. The report then lists February earnings and finances for Summit Branch and Lykens Valley lines and notes a New York Danbury and Boston railroad vote to increase capital.
