ANNUAL REPORT ON WORKING RAILWAYS BY THE NEW ZEALAND RAILWAY COMMISSIONERS.

Presented to Parliament in pursuance of " The Government Railways Act, 1887."

To the Hon. the Ministeb for Public Woeks. N.Z. Kailways, Head Office, o __ Wellington, Ist June, 1891. We have the honour, in compliance with the direction in section 61 of " The Government Railways Act, 1887," to submit the annual report on the working railways of New Zealand for the twelve months ended the 31st March, 1891, for presentation to Parliament. Revenue, Expenses, and Traffic. The returns of traffic, revenue, and expenditure of the various sections of railways are presented in the same tabular form as in the annual reports of previous years. The outcome of the year's work is as follows : £ s. d. Gross earnings ... ••• ••• 1,121,701 0 0 Working-expenses ... ■■■ 700,703 0 0 Net profit £420,998 0 0 The net profit of £420,998 on a capital cost of £14,278,586 on 1,842 miles of railway gives a return of £2 18s. lid. per cent., as against £412,782, giving £2 19s. sd. per cent, on £13,899,955 and 1,809 miles in the previous year. The net profit has been the largest yet realised, and the cost of working the traffic has been lower than in any previous year. There is an increase in the total traffic. The live-stock traffic has increased very largely. There has been an increase in passenger-traffic, which must be considered satisfactory having regard to the very large special traffic created by the Dunedin Exhibition in the previous year. The result points to the success of the newly-introduced return-ticket system, and to the progressive prosperity of the colony, notwithstanding the stationary state of the population in some parts. The extensions of railway from Wyndham to Glenham and from Palmerston North to Woodville have been opened during the year. The former does not add materially to the revenue, and is like many of the extensions made of late years, which, while adding largely to the capital cost of the railways, do not produce any interest on the outlay. The Palmerston North to Woodville line, which was opened on the 9th March, is likely to be productive of good financial results on the two systems which it connects. I—D. 2

The traffic for the last twelve years has been as follows: —

Condition of Lines and Appliances. The lines, with all rolling-stock and appliances, have been maintained in good order. Various additions and improvements urgently needed have been made thereto from working-expenses. The plant has improved in value and efficiency, and renewals have been effected with heavier rails and more permanent materials. Additions to Accommodation and Appliances. We regret that the representations made in our last annual report and on various other occasions have not met with such response as the importance of the interests concerned requires. The funds provided from capital have been insufficient to meet the reasonable demands of the public for increased station accommodation and rolling-stock, and to extend the appliances and shop-room necessary for the economical and efficient maintenance of the railways without resorting to outside markets for the execution of work. It would appear to be preferable to make adequate provision for additions to those lines where the traffic and business justify and require it, in preference to expending funds in extending railways which cannot at present be expected to pay any interest on capital. For the present year the least provision which should be made to meet liabilities and pressing wants is £40,000. The practice of late years has been to make as many miles of road as possible, at the same time omitting to provide sufficient funds for the additional appliances and improvements needed to deal properly with the traffic and maintenance work arising therefrom, and from the natural growth of business throughout the system. The public is thus liable to suffer for the want of reasonable accommodation, while at the same time many thousands of pounds of capital are lying idle on extensions of railways which are almost or entirely unused. Future Prospects. The completion of the Otago Central to Middlemarch, the extensions of the Blenheim to Awatere, the Eotorua, the Helensville North, the Catlin's Eiver, and the Greymouth to Hokitika railways, will add not short of a million of money to the capital account, on which no interest is likely to be earned in the immediate future. While these lines will benefit the districts they serve, it is doubtful if they will pay the expenses of working, so that, although the colony on the whole is fairly prosperous, we should not expect the net result of working to improve much under the circumstances. Should the Manawatu Company's line be acquired by the colony, it will conduce to the more profitable and convenient working of the Government lines comprised between Taranaki, Napier, and Wellington. For the financial year ending the 31st March, 1892, we have estimated for a net revenue of £414,000 only. As there will be no Easter traffic during that year, and the grain and flax traffic will be smaller than usual, and extensive reductions in rates and fares have been made in pursuance of section 20 of the Government Eailways Act, we think this is as large a sum as should be estimated for. General. Acting- in accordance with the policy indicated»in last year's report—namely, to facilitate traffic in natural productions, and to give cheaper and better facilities for travelling, to such an extent as could be done without materially disturbing the finances of the colony—we have reduced a large number of rates, the most important of which are those affecting native brown coals and firewood.

The issue of return tickets daily, with a liberal return time-allowance, at two-thirds of the cost of the single fares previously used, has been a very important and popular change. Particulars of the alterations in rates and fares are enumerated in Eeturn No. 30. Improved facilities for travelling have been afforded by these reduced fares, as well as by improved time-tables between Dunedin or Invercargill and the Lakes, and between Napier, Wellington, and Taranaki, and by adding improved carriage-stock. During the year papers have been presented to Parliament (D.-4, 1890) relating to demands made by the employes, among other things, for reducing the hours of labour in certain cases, and for limiting the practice of working overtime. The Commissioners met these demands as far as they appeared reasonable. The concessions in time, and tho increase in staff necessary to reduce the overtime, are estimated to cost about £10,000 per annum. The difficulties occasioned by the strikes led to a greatly increased outlay on fuel, thereby adding to the expenses of working. The contract prices for nearly all stores have also risen since the beginning of the year. Disturbances arose in the railway staff in August and September last, some of the employes electing to obey the orders of irresponsible persons outside of the railway, and to disobey the rules of the railway service under which they were engaged, refusing to perform the handling of goods, shunting, and other work in connection with ships the owners of which wore in some way mixed up with the strikes in Australia. Papers bearing on this subject were also presented to Parliament (H.-44, 1890). In consequence of the circumstances attending these movements among the staff, the Commissioners have found it necessary to decline to discuss the affairs of the employes with any persons outside the railway service. The Government Bailways Act constitutes the Commissioners the tribunal to see that proper service is exacted from the employes on the one hand, and that fair treatment is accorded to them on the other. The interference of both well-intentioned persons and agitators is mischievous and injurious to efficient and safe conduct of the public service, and should not therefore be countenanced. Some representations have been made to the Commissioners on the subject of tho carriage of wool by traction-engine in preference to the railway in certain localities. Such a practice is carried on at the expense of the ratepayers who maintain the roads, and who as a rule derive no benefit whatever from it. The persons who gain are the owners of the goods and the proprietors of the traction-engines. Those persons who lose are the local ratepayers. The owner of the traction-engine, who gets full loads and continuous work for a few weeks during the year, and who can stop work in slack times, and who pays nothing towards the heavy injury which he does to the roads, can, over certain distances, and under certain conditions, compete with the railway, the charges for the use of which have to cover the cost of maintenance. If the ratepayers, who are in no way benefited, are willing to maintain the roads free for the advantage of the very few persons who elect to take their wool by road, the railways cannot be expected to secure the traffic, and it is a question which may properly be considered whether in future it is desirable to extend railways into remote country districts, which may be served by traction-engines in this way more cheaply. In reviewing the progress of the Government railways during the past ten years, and taking the length open in the years 1881 and 1891 at 1,277 and 1,842 miles, and assuming the population at 500,000 and 623,000, we find the population per mile to be 391 and 338 respectively. The railway-mileage has therefore been increasing in a much greater proportion than the population. •The traffic per head of population has, however, grown so as, on the whole, to give a greater traffic per mile open; but, while the capital has been increased from £9,228,000 to £14,278,586, as the traffic has been carried at lower rates, the interest earned is lower notwithstanding greater economy in working. This economy has been attained by the more careful disposition and training of the staff, the zeal of the employes of all grades, the improvements in roads and structures, the introduction of superior carriage and wagon stock, the more skilful use of lubricants, water, and fuel in the locomotives, the adoption of better types of locomotives, and by improving the shops and machinery. How much has been done since 1880 is shown by the results of working the Hurunui-Bluff section. The cost of working 755 miles in 1879-80 was £439,717; while the cost of working 1 074 miles, with a much larger traffic, in 1890-91 has been £425,500. On the whole it is apparent that the progress of the railways has been satisfactory.

As there is a certain amount of discussion now going on about the zone-ticket system which has been adopted in some European countries, and some confusion of ideas exists about it, it is desirable to remark upon it. It js generally supposed that there is some gain to the travelling public in the system itself. This, however, is doubtful. The advantage in most cases which has accompanied the zone system, but which is independent of it, consists in the reduction of fares. The reduction of fares in most cases is made with a diminishing charge for increasing distances, which is effected generally by adopting a fixed charge per zone, the zones increasing in length the further they are from the initial starting-point. In one instance the zone-lengths are based on the square roots of the distances from the starting-point. A fare-table may be made with a diminishing rate as the distance increases, either by adopting gradually increasing lengths of zones, with a fixed charge per zone, or by adopting a gradually diminishing charge per zone, with a fixed length of zone. The same object can be gained by either plan. If we adopted a diminishing rate per mile to compute our passenger-fares we should be following the latter plan. The zone system is merely the mechanical part of dealing with ticket issues and faros, and we should not gain by its adoption. The subject which has been confused with it is the amount of the fares charged, and the question of whether this should, be uniform or diminishing according to distance. It would be of no practical moment to the public whether the lowered fares are computed on the mileage system or on an irregular zone system, or on one based on square roots, or on a complex one. The reasonableness of passenger-fares from various points of view must depend mainly upon the population, and their location in relation to the railways, and the current wages of.the country. Those countries where experiments are being tried with lower fares computed on such systems have a large population. The Austrian Empire has 3,000, Belgium 2,000, Sweden 1,000 people per mile of railway, and the rate of wages is only a fraction of what it is here. A further reduction in fares made without regard to our present population, or to the current wages which are paid for working the railway services, would involve a reduced profit. In conclusion, it may be added that the zone systems are not similar to Lie stage system which has been proposed in New Zealand, the proposed fares for which in many instances are very much lower than those in operation in Europe or elsewhere. We have the honour to be, Sir, Your most obedient servants, James McKbbkow, J. P. Maxwell, W. M. Hannay, The New Zealand Eailway Commissioners.
