SERIOUS SHRINKAGE IN EARNINGS.
Preal Awocifttion—By Telegraph.—Copyright. SYDNEY, January 21. (Received Jan. 21, at 9.35 p.m.)
As a result of the late drought and the war there is a serious decrease in railway earnings. To meet this the time-tables are being revised, and the service reduced by wheh one million train miles will be saved annually. Many temporary hands have been put off, and probably the whole of the remainder will have to go. The office branch contributed 237 men to the Expeditionary Forces and other branches considerable numbers, and their places have not been filled.
