RAILWAYS STATEMENT BY THE MINISTER OF RAILWAYS, THE HON. W. H. HERRIES.

Mr. Speaker,— In presenting the Railways Statement for the year ending 31st March, 1914 I have pleasure in announcing that, notwithstanding the smallpox epidemic in the north and the industrial upheaval caused through the unfortunate strike, the earnings exceeded those of the preceding year by £72,326. The results are as follows:— Year igu Year 1913 Total earnings 4,043,328 3,971,002 TlleSndTture Z 2,705,609 Net profit on working £1,163,005 £1,265,393 The mileage of line open for traffic on the 31st March, 1914, was 2,863 miles, and the average miles operated during the year 2,861 miles The only line opened during the year was the Dunollie-Rewanui Section of the State Collieries line, 3 miles 6 chains in length. . The capital cost of the lines opened for traffic, including plant and steamers on Lake Wakatipu, advanced from £31,611,220 to £32,355,087. The net revenue, £1,163,005, is equal to a return of 3-61 per cent, on the capital invested in the open lines, and 3-33 per cent, on the capital (£34,980,576) invested in opened and unopened lines. . . Although the gross revenue exceeded that of the previous year, it tell short of the estimate by £156,672, as a result of the abnormal conditions prevailing The net revenue per train-mile declined by 2-46 d. in the North Island and by 4-75 d. in the South Island. The net earnings per average miles of railway open was £408 The failure* oi the revenue to meet the estimates was due to a fallmg-off of the goods traffic, the restriction of travel by smallpox epidemic, and the loss of the Easter holiday workshops were kept fully employed building locomotives, cars, and wagons to provide for expansion of business. A large programme for rollingstock construction is now in hand. This will serve the dual purpose of providing increased capacity for dealing with the traffic offering and keep the workshops staff fully employed on the remunerative work The expenditure absorbed 71-24 per cent, of the revenue, an increase of 3-11 per cent over the previous year. The increase is directly traceable to advances in wages' employment of extra staff, and additional tram services. A considerable amount was spent in carrying out improvements to lines and providing increased accommodation at stations, and extending provision of safety appliances.

The accumulated funds to the credit of the Government Railways Superannuation Fund amount to £295,470, an increase of £31,015 on the previous year. The total income for the year was £109,378, and the amount outgoing £78,363. Of the latter sum, £67,880 represented the charge involved in payments to 1,352 beneficiaries, comprising 846 members of the service who have either voluntarily resigned or who have been retired on account of being medically unfit, 204 widows and 302 children dependants of deceased members of the service who had not retired on superannuation at the time of their death. The actuarial report on the Government Railways Superannuation Fund having indicated that an additional subsidy was necessary to place the fund on a satisfactory financial basis, the Government has arranged to pay an additional amount of £25,000 to the fund, making the Government subsidy for the year 1914-15 £50,000.

Mr. T. Ronayne, who filled the position of General Manager since 1895, voluntarily retired on the 31st October last. Mr. E. H. Hiley, new General Manager, assumed control of the railways on the Ist November, after having inspected the principal sections in company with Mr. Ronayne. Mr. Hike's report on the New Zealand railways, which is very comprehensive and contains a number of important proposals, is attached hereto, and I commend it to the careful perusal of honourable members. The report of Mr. Ronayne (late General Manager), covering the period the Ist April to the 31st October, together with the report of Mr. John Henry Lowe, C.E., M.1.C.E., on the condition of the New Zealand railways, has also been printed for the information of the House. A number of very important proposals, involving an expenditure of £3,250,000 for the provision of new stations at Auckland, Wellington, and Christchurch ; construction of new line from Auckland southwards to connect with the Main Trunk line at Westfield ; the duplication of the suburban lines—Newmarket to New Lynn, and Penrose southwards; also duplication of the Lyttelton Tunnel ; reorganization of station-yards at Palmerston North, Hastings, Addington, and Timaru ; erection of new workshop for engine-building purposes at Newmarket; extension of Petone Workshops ; provision of level-crossing alarms ; importation of locomotives from abroad ; and grade-easements and bridge-strengthening are contained in Mr. Hiley's report. There is no doubt in my mind that if the railway business of the Dominion is to be efficiently carried out and the Department satisfactorily performs its functions in dealing with the commerce of the country, considerable additions must be made to the existing railway facilities. The amount involved in providing new lines, grade-easements, bridge-strengthening, and new locomotives will be remunerative for all time, and give a handsome return on the investment. The new stations and improvements to station-yards are essential to the economical and efficient conduct of the business, and may also be regarded as remunerative expenditure. The signalling and interlocking expenditure is essential in the interests of public safety, and the workshops additions are for increasing the output of rolling-stock and enabling the Department to avoid the necessity of going abroad for plant in the near future. The following statement shows a brief comparison of the traffic and the rolling-stock for dealing therewith on the 31st March, 1907, with that at the 31st March of the present year : — 31st March, 31st March, increase Per Oent - of 1907. 19H. increase.

ANNUAL REPORT OF THE GENERAL MANAGER OF THE NEW ZEALAND GOVERNMENT RAILWAYS. New Zealand Government Railways, Sir, — Head Office, Wellington, 31st August, 1914. I have the honour to report on the working of the New Zealand railways for the financial year ending 31st March, 1914. During the period Ist April to 31st October, 1913, the arrangements and administration of the lines was in the hands of Mr. Ronayne, late General Manager, who retired on superannuation on the latter date. The actual management therefore devolved on me as from the Ist November, 1913, to the end of the financial year—a period of five months, a considerable portion of which has been taken up in necessary travel for inspection purposes. The only new line opened for traffic during the year was the Reeftou-Cronadun extension of the Westland Section, 3 miles in length, bringing the total mileage of line open for traffic at the end of the year up to 2,863 miles. The capital cost of lines open for traffic, including the steamers and plant on Lake Wakatipu, was £32,355,087. The gross receipts amounted to £4,043,328, against £3,971,002 for the preceding year. The net revenue amounted to £1,163,005, equal to a return of 361 per cent, on the capital invested in the railways open for traffic, and to 332 per cent, on the total capital (£34,980,576) invested in opened and unopened lines. The train-mileage advanced from 9,016,224 miles in 1913 to 9,319,268 miles for the year just ended —an increase of 303,004 miles —the cost of which was £93,426. In the North Island the increase amounted to 328,045 miles. The mileage in the South Island decreased by 25,001 miles, leaving the net increase as 303,004 miles, which represent services laid on for public convenience and to facilitate the movement of traffic. The major portion of the increased mileage is covered by services established in the Auckland suburban district, and between Putaruru and Rotorua, Taumarunui and Ongarue, Wellington-Auckland, Hastings-Napier, and on the Toko Branch and the Gisborne Section. In the South Island additional trains were run between Christchurch and Lyttelton, Balclutha and Houipapa, and Waimahaka-Tokanui; but in the aggregate the train-mileage decreased by 25,000 miles. There was a reduction of 15,000 miles on the Westport Section, where the effect of the strike was acutely felt; 18,000 miles on the Hurunui-Bluff Section, and 2,000 on the Westland Section; while on the Nelson and Picton Sections there were increases of 8,000 and 2,000 miles respectively. Traffic was seriously interfered with by heavy floods and slips that occurred during the months of August, October, and December. In the South Island the Outram Branch was interrupted by floods on the 14th, 15th, 16th, 25th, 26th, and 27th August; the main line between Milton and LovelPs Flat and Allanton and Henley on. the 15th and 16th August. Slips caused delay to Lawrence Branch train on the 15th August, and blocked the main line near Burkes and Puketeraki on the 15th and 16th August, and again between Dunedin and Palmerston on the 25th and 26th August. The Otago Central was blocked from the same cause on the 15th, 16th, and 17th August, and was the scene of heavy floods. on the 25th August, the resultant damage being of such an extent that trains could only run between Clyde and Ranfurly. The interruption between Ranfurly and Wingatui continued till the 9th September. Further floods occurred on the 30th October, blocking the line between Gore and McNab, and at Hazlett's on the Nightcaps Branch. In the North Island heavy rains caused a number of slips on the Main Trunk line between Marton and Ohakune on the 23rd October. Traffic between Marton and Taihape was suspended on the 23rd, 24th, and 25th October, but line was sufficiently repaired on the 27th idem to allow passenger-trains to run through. Further slips took place between Marton and Taihape on the 12th, 13th, and 17th December, interfering with the train services to some extent, but the interruption was not of long duration. Passengers were in all cases transhipped wherever practicable, coach services being utilized between breaks where train services were not available. The following figures, which give the record of the late arrival of the principal trains during the year, indicate that despite the difficulties experienced from floods, slips, and other unforeseen circumstances the trains have as a whole run well up to time : — Average Late Arrival. „, , Last Year. Minutes. ~. t Minutes. Long-distance passenger-trains ... ... ... ... l'4O l - 67 Suburban trains ... ... ... ... ... o'4B 0 - 56 Long-distance mixed trains ... ... ... ... 2"28 258 The number, of ordinary passengers carried during the year was 13,355,893, an advance of 232,014 on the previous year's business. Season tickets issued numbered 287,037, an increase of 21,778; workers' twelve-trip tickets numbered 58,367, and workers' weekly suburban-lines tickets 163,299, an increase of 4,670 twelve-trip and. 14,345 workers' weekly suburban over the preceding year. Holiday excursion tickets totalled 815,267, a decrease of 149,428 on the previous year's traffic. Schools', factories', and friendly societies' excursions advanced from 133,897 passengers in 1913 to 188,987 for the year under review, an increase of 55,090. Coaching traffic gave an increase of 71,941 parcels, but horses, carriages, and dogs decreased by 3,000, making the net increase 68,000 in items grouped under the head of " Coaching traffic." t

Goods and live-stock traffic show increases as under : — Cattle ... ... ... ... 32,696 head; Sheep ... ... ... ... 1,471,690 ~ Pigs ... ... ... ... 9,643 ~ Chaff, lime, &c. ... ... ... 22,658 tons; Wool ... ... ... ... 7,973 ~ Firewood ... ... ... ... 4,966 ~ Merchandise ... ... ... ... 27,813 ~ and decreases as under — Drays ... ... ... ... 90 Timber ... ... ... ... 18,000 tons; Grain ... ... ... ... 131,500 ~ Minerals ... ... ... ... 209,000 ~ the net result being a decrease of 227,000 tons in the gross goods tonnage. The decrease in the live-stock traffic is to some extent due to the fact that the operations of various freezing companies were restricted to a considerable extent during the year ending 1913 by labour troubles with slaughtermen. The natural increase in the flocks of the Dominion and the satisfactory prices ruling for sheep and wool have also been an important factor causing the sheep to change hands readily, and owing to the difficulties in obtaining labour there seems to be a disposition among farmers to devote themselves to sheep and dairying in preference to agriculture. The decrease in the timber traffic has resulted from the fluctuation of the business, particularly the export trade, and is mainly due to the falling-ofi of the export traffic on the Westland Section, and slackness in building arising out of labour troubles. The falling-ofi in the grain traffic is confined to the South Island, and is to some extent due to the fact that farmers are devoting themselves more to stock-raising, and there has been consequently a less acreage under crop. The unfavourable season, during which there were heavy floods in Otago and Southland, further militated against the traffic. Added to this there is the fact that the quantity of grain forwarded ex stores at the principal ports is considerably less than for the preceding year, indicating that large quantities of grain are being held for more favourable prices. A decrease of 209,000 tons in minerals is directly traceable to the labour troubles existing during the year, which restricted the operations of the mines in various parts of the Dominion. These were most acutely felt in the mines operating in the Greymouth and Westport districts. This will be readily understood from the fact that since the 29th October to the sth January, 1914, not a particle of coal was carried on the Westport Section, where the traffic decreased by 155,000 tons —nearly 20 per cent, of the average total output. At Greymouth the traffic decreased to the extent of 75,000 tons. The strike also restricted the output of brown coal in some of the districts, and resulted in larger quantities of foreign coal than usual being imported and conveyed by rail to supply the shortage in the local product. The average number of men employed on the railways during the year was 14,176, against 14,213 for the year ending 31st March, 1913. Twelve members of the Second Division were promoted to the First Division, 479 members of the permanent staff resigned, 83 members retired on superannuation, 48 died, 111 were dismissed, and 1,160 were engaged. The amount paid under the Workers' Compensation for Accidents Act during the year in respect to members who sustained injuries in the execution of their duties was £12,459. The additions made to the rolling-stock during the year consisted of 22 new engines, 91 bogie cars, 23 brake-vans, 729 wagons, 2,060 new tarpaulins. Of the locomotives, one goods tender-engine, Class Bα, ten heavy tank-engines, Class Wg, and four Class X 94-ton tender-engines, four-cylinder balanced-compound, were built in the Government railway workshops, and seven Class Ad 72-ton tender-engines, four-cylinder balanced-compound, were completed under contracts with Messrs. A. and G. Price (Limited), of Thames. Four old carriages and one old car damaged in a collision were written off, and five obsolete cars were sold. One old van and seven second-hand wagons were sold, and seven worn-out wagons written off, and have been replaced by new vehicles paid for out of revenue. 1,147 tarpaulins were worn out and written off, and have been replaced by new ones charged against revenue. During the year 578 modern steel axles were placed under cars, vans, and wagons in substitution for old iron axles. The effect of this change is to the carrying-capacity of the wagons by 2 tons and at the same time give greater stability to the wagons. The rolling-stock on the Gisborne Section was equipped with the Westinghouse air-brake during the year, and arrangements made for the equipment of the rolling-stock on the other smaller sections in turn until all the rolling-stock used on the railway system of the Dominion is equipped with this necessary appliance. 11,188,020 cubic feet of Pintsch gas was manufactured for use by the Department during the year, at a cost of 2s. 2'92d. per 100 cubic feet. This shows an advance of l'6ld. per 100 cubic feet, due to the fact that the cost of rebuilding the Palmerston North Gasworks, which were destroyed by fire during the year, has been charged against the gas-output. There were 108J miles of track relaid during the year : of this mileage, 80f miles of main lines were laid with 70 lb. rails, 10|- miles of branch lines with 55 Ib. steel material in substitution for 40 lb. rails, and 17 miles of branch lines with 53 lb. steel material removed from main lines and placed in branch lines in lieu of 40 lb. rails. During the year 395,712 cubic yards of ballast were used, an increase of 105,000 cubic yards compared with the previous year. 256,054 sleepers were put into the track during the

D.-2

VI

year. The practice of replacing sleepers, inaugurated some time ago for the purpose of strengthening the track, was continued during the year, and also the laying of check rails to lessen the wear on the outer rails for sharp curves. A large number of works having for their object the improvement of the facilities and increasing the accommodation were carried out during the year, comprising additions to station sidings, houses and social halls for the staff, new goods-sheds, stock-yards, improvements to water-services, drainage, workshops, engine-sheds, sanitary arrangements, and many other useful works too numerous to particularize. The programme in hand comprises works that will give better facilities to the public and at the same time enable the operations of the Railway Department to be carried on more satisfactorily and economically. The new wagons added to the rolling-stock during the year give an increased capacity of 8,290 tons, equal to 523 per cent. The increased carrying-capacity of the wagons is equal to an addition of 1,381 6 ; ton wagons. The additional tractive power represented in the new locomotives i.s 436,853 lb., equal to an increase of 691 per cent. The interlocking and signalling system has been brought into operation at Taumarunui, Te Kuiti, Mount Eden, and Wanganui new station, while additions and arrangements have been made at Auckland, Penrose Junction, Taihape, Palmerston North, Paekakariki, Timaru, Lower Hutt, Studholme Junction, Invercargill, and Greymouth; and Post and Telegraph siding at Addington, the Auckland Brick Company's siding at New Lynn, Railway sawmill siding at Ohakune, have been interlocked with the tablet system. With a view to increasing xhe safety the facing-points of the crossing-loops at the whole of the 125 stations in the North Island which are equipped with fixed signals have been fitted with special switch-locks, which prevent the heme signals being lowered unless the facing-pomts to which the signal applies are unlocked. A commencement has also been made in the direction of similarly interlocking the signals and facing-points in the South Island. The electric-tablet system has been installed and brought into operation between the sections Putaruru to Rotorua, Dunollie to Rewanui. New tablet stations have been opened at Wiri, Takanini, Makino Road, Belmont, and the ballast-pit near Pareora. Seventeen additional stations were equipped with semaphore signals, and the automatic exchanging apparatus was installed at nine stations. The total number of stations equipped with fixed signals is 245, and 82 stations have been interlocked. 1,538 miles of single line are now controlled by tht Tver's electric tablet, 39J miles double line by the lock-and-block, and 21 miles by the train staff and ticket. Hie telephone and telegraph facilities have been materially added to during the year, and at the 31st March the railway system of train-signalling by electric telegraph and telephones comprised 26C sets of Morse instruments, 1,385 telephones, 226 electric bells, 2,339J miles of poles, and 6,423 miles of wire. At the end of the year the equipment of the Onerahi-Whakapara Section with the electric tablet and the erection of telephone-lines between Frankton-Cambridge, Sheffield - Racecourse Hill, and Rolleston-Kirwee were in hand. The whole of the railway appliances and equipment, consisting of rolling-stock, machinery, track, bridge-building and other structures have been maintained in an efficient and satisfactory condition. Retbnub. The labour unrest which had been manifesting itself for some considerable time, and ultimately culminated in strikes of considerable magnitude, extending over a period of three months, involving the coal-miners, waterside workers, seamen, carters, &c, and had a very detrimental effect on the receipts for railway traffic. For the first time for a long period the railways have failed in consequence to realize expectations in regard to the revenue. The gross receipts for the year amounted to £4,043,328, as against an estimated revenue of £4,200,000, the deficit on the estimate being £156,672. The sources from which the revenue was derived were : — 1914. 1913. Increase. Decrease. £ £ £ £ Passengers ... ... ... 1,450,480 1,461,873 ... 11,393 Parcels, luggage, and mails ... 236,761 215,209 21,552 Goods .. ... ... 2,283,149 2,224,786 58,363 Rents and commissions ... 72,938 69,134 3,804 4,043,328 3,971,002 83,719 11,393 Although the receipts for the year under review fell short of the estimate, they exceeded the revenue for the previous year by £72,326. The falling-off in passenger receipts amounted to £11,393. This is directly due to the restrictions in travel imposed for a long period as a result of the smallpox epidemic, also to the fact of the issue of holiday excursion tickets to Auckland over an extended period during the currency of the Exhibition, and finally to loss of the business of the Easter traffic, the passenger bookings for the preceding year having benefited by the inclusion of two Easters in the business for that year. The effect of the smallpox epidemic and the loss of the Easter traffic will be apparent from the fact that, although the total number of the passengers carried increased by 232,014, the actual receipts decreased by £14,410. The total number of passengers carried at holiday excusion rates declined by approximately 150,000, notwithstanding the extended issue of holiday excursion tickets to Auckland for the Exhibition, which proved insufficient attraction to counteract the effect of the restrictions resulting from the smallpox epidemic, loss of business through the strike, and loss of the Easter traffic.

The more extended period of the day over which trains are run the heavier the expense of staffing. But for the fact that the train services were materially curtailed as I result of the falling off m traffic due to the strike the expenditure of the Traffic Branch would have been considerably higher than it was; but the net result of working would undoubtedly have been more favourable. In the Locomotive Branch the increased expenditure is due to the advanced in the rates of pay and the prices paid for fuel, stores, and material, the advances in the expendi ture in the Head and Departmental Offices incidental to the inclusion in the Head and Depart" mental Offices of items previously charged to sections, and also to a considerable extent by increases in salaries under the Classification Act. c eXtent b^ The expenditure per mile of railway in the Maintenance Branch amounted to £267 against £271 per mile for the previous year.

of the material, which had been used for reclamation on the railway, was credited to the construction authority. The road was vested in the Wellington City Council by Governor's Proclamation dated the 17th March, 1914. Other Works. During the year the new Chain Hills Tunnel, on the Dunedin-Mosgiel line, was opened for traffic, and single-line working on the new line between Abbot's Creek and Wingatui new station was brought into operation on the 23rd March, 1914. Good progress has been made with this duplication, which is now approaching completion. Other impoi-tant works have been carried out or completed during the year. The gradeeasement on the North Island Main Trunk line north of Whangarata has been finished, and the grade-easement north of Pokeno is approaching completion. A commencement has also been made on similar work between Drury and Paerata. The Manawapou deviation has been practically completed. The earthworks are well advanced in connection with the Parnell Tunnel duplication, and a commencement in driving the tunnel has been made at the Auckland end. Reclamation of land at Mechanics Bay, Auckland, has been undertaken by the Auckland Harbour Board under agreement with the Railway Department, and it is anticipated that it will be completed within the time—namely, by November, 1915. Rolling-stock. Messrs. Price Bros. (Limited), of the Thames, delivered seven Class Ad locomotives constructed by them under contract. The firm has still six Ad locomotives to complete their original contract, and twenty Class B tender-locomotives to build under contract taken by them during the year. The rolling-stock under construction in the railway workshops at the 31st March last comprises twenty-six engines-—viz., six Class X 94-ton tender-engines, twenty heavy tender-engines, Class Wβ. The locomotive programme already arranged, therefore, provides altogether for the building of fifty-two locomotives of heavy type between the railway workshops and Messrs. Price Bros. (Limited). The number of cars under construction in the railway workshops on the 31st March was fiftynine, and there were also seventeen bogie brake-vans, eighty-nine bogie and 1,247 four-wheeled wagons in hand. General. The Westinghouse petrol-electric rail-motor-car for use on suburban lines is under construction in the Petone Workshops, and when completed it will be run experimentally from Wellington until such time as practicable results can be definitely ascertained. Experiments will, however, require to extend over a considerable period before it can be definitely concluded whether the cars can be run with financial success under the circumstances existing in the Dominion. Experiments have been made with electric alarms suitable for use on level crossings, and as the appliance designed by the Department's officers has been found reliable under actual tests, it has been decided to install the electric alarms at a number of the more important busy crossings connected with the railway system. In view, however, of the amount of expenditure involved it will only be practicable to install a given number of the alarms each year. The installations will first be made at crossings regarded by the Department as possessing the greatest claims in view of the volume of traffic passing over them or their situation in respect to view, &c. It lias been found necessary during the past year to prosecute a considerable number of motorists who have driven over railway-lines at a most reckless speed when trains have been within the immediate vicinity of the crossings. In several cases the occupants of the motors have escaped disaster by the narrowest margin, and then only owing to the vigilance exercised by the trainmen. As an additional safeguard and warning to persons using the roads that cross the railway-line the Department has intimated to the local _bodies controlling the highways that it would be prepared to provide and erect notice-boards a distance to be determined in advance of the railway-crossings provided the local bodies would undertake to maintain the notices after erection. Up to the present time the majority of the local bodies have not intimated their readiness to join with the Department in providing additional safeguards for persons using the roads. 'This is, I consider, a matter for regret, as the altered conditions of road transport resulting from the ever-increasing number of motor vehicles used has materially increased the risk of ■accident. Immediately prior to and during the time of the labour trouble considerable pressure was exerted on the railway staff to induce them to take part in the strike. The men, however, firmly declined the overtures and loyally performed their duties, at times under very trying conditions'. I am deeply sensible of the value of the services rendered under such circumstances, and desire to place on record my appreciation thereof. I have prepared a special report reviewing the railway position in New Zealand and setting forth the conclusions I have arrived at as the result of inspections and observations since I took charge in November last. This review accompanies the annual report herewith. E. H. HILET, The Hon. the Minister of Railways, General Manager,

Total mileage now equipped with tablet apparatus: 1,538| miles, single line. Electric tablet instruments now in use, 820, at 345 stations. Automatic tablet-exchanging apparatus has been installed at nine additional stations. The total now in use is 313. Lock and Block. The electric lock-and-block system for double-line working has worked satisfactorily. The equipment of the section Abbot's Creek to Mosgiel is in hand. Mileage of line open for traffic : Double line, 39| miles; single line, 2,823 miles 60 chains. Total mileage now equipped with lock-and-block apparatus : 39J miles, double line. Electric lock-and-block instruments now in use, 76, at 35 stations. Telegraph and Telephone Facilities. - Two hundred and ninety miles of wire and forty-four and a half miles of poles have been erected and brought into use, also various alterations and additions have been made to improve existing lines. Seventy telephones have been fixed and brought into operation, thirty-eight additional and five extension connections have been made with the public telephone exchanges, and twelve additional Morse connections and twenty-two Morse instruments installed in learners' gallery, Christchurch, and thirty-three electric bells have been brought into use.

Totals now in use: Morse sets, 266; telephones, 1,385; electric bells, 226; miles wire, 6,423; miles poles, 2,33% Work on the following lines is in progress: Frankton-Cambridge telephone-line; Sheffield - Racecourse Hill telephone-line; Rolleston-Kirwee telephone-line. Further facilities are still needed in some districts to meet the most pressing requirements. Electric Lighting and Power Working. Electric light has been installed at Christchurch new district offices, Mataura, Mangaweka, and Stationmaster's house, Green Island, and additional lighting at Petone Workshops and Rotorua Station and yard. The installation of lighting Te Kuiti Station is in hand, also the placing underground of all telegraph, telephone, and block wires between Addington and Sockburn, necessitated by the close proximity of the Lake Coleridge electric-power transmission-lines. The expenditure on electric block working, telegraph and telephone facilities, and electric lighting for the year was : — New works— £ s . d.

Traffic. Mr. H. Buxton, Chief Traffic Manager, reports as follows: — Whangarei Section. Revenue, £42,721; increase, £1,311. Passengers decreased 15,000, chiefly owing to the restrictions upon travel during the smallpox epidemic. There was an increase of 2,700 parcels due to cream traffic. Goods traffic increased by 8,500 tons, chiefly timber. The coal output was affected by the strike. Kaihu Section. Revenue, £4,988; increase, £286. The increase is in passengers and timber. Gisborne Section. Revenue, £23,503; increase, £4,980. Increase of 1,200 passengers and 550 parcels. The principal features of the goods traffic were the increases of 40,000 sheep and 2,700 tons of timber. Minerals decreased by 4,000 tons.

During the last four years it has increased by £504. The revenue per train-mile decreased from Bs. to Bs. Id. The increase of passenger revenue was £5,135. A portion of the increase in live-stock is due to the delay in forwarding sheep to the freezingworks last year in consequence of the strike of slaughtermen. For the twelve weeks ended 31st March, 1913, there was a decrease as compared with the same period of the preceding year of over 310,000 sheep, while the first twelve weeks of 1914 show an increase of over 300,000. Auckland District (to lloropito). —Revenue, £881,343; increase, £32,117. There was a large increase (237,538) in the number of passengers, chiefly in the vicinity of Auckland, but the passenger revenue shows a decrease owing to the issue of holiday-excursion tickets to Auckland during the currency of the Exhibition and the loss of Easter traffic. Parcels increased by 38,145, chiefly cream traffic. The increases in live-stock were —Cattle, 2,542; calves, 3,173; sheep, 67,698; pigs, 9,793. Grain and minerals show increases of 24,807 tons and 26,211 tons respectively, the latter chiefly road-metal. Chaff, wool, firewood, and merchandise also show improvement, but there was a slight decrease in timber. Wanganui District (to Ohakune). —Revenue, £457,997; increase, £25,462. There was a decrease of 17,000 passengers owing to loss of Easter traffic and the restrictions placed upon the travel of Maoris. Parcels traffic improved. There was a large increase (432,000) in the number of sheep carried. Timber decreased by over 11,000 tons, and grain by 9,700 tons. Other classes of traffic show an improvement. Wellington District. —Revenue, £818,761; increase, £64,525. Passengers increased by 44,000 and season tickets by 4,300. Parcels traffic shows a slight reduction. There were increases of 9,000 cattle and 543,000 sheep. Chaff, &c, increased by 8,600 tons, wool by 4,700 tons, grain by 5,200 tons, and merchandise by 23,600 tons. The increase in merchandise was caused by later shipments of frozen meat for the previous season, and the distribution of coastal cargo by rail during the strike. There were decreases of 2,300 tons of timber and 24,000 tons of minerals due to the temporary stoppage of building operations and of the importation of coal. Picton Section. Revenue, £32,250; increase, £858. Passenger revenue decreased £700. There was an increase of 46,500 sheep, 7,000 tons of chaff, and 1,500 tons of grain. Wool, merchandise, and minerals show decreases. The Wairau bar has been good throughout the year. Nelson Section. Revenue, £31,911; increase, £2,764. Passengers show a decrease, but there has been a general improvement in the goods traffic, the principal increase being 2,347 tons of merchandise. Westport Section. * Revenue, £102,325; decrease, £22,151. The loss of revenue was chiefly due to a decrease of 155,087 tons of coal during the strikes. Westland Section. Revenue, £137,114; decrease, £7,609. Passengers show a decrease of over 13,000 in number, but a slight increase in revenue, the through bookings to East Coast and Auckland making up the revenue, while the loss of Easter holiday traffic, and the shrinkage of local traffic during the strike, caused the decrease in numbers. The stoppage of coal and timber traffic was the cause of the decrease in revenue. South Island Main Line and Branches. Revenue, £1,503,626; decrease, £29,985. The principal items were: — Number.

The annual revenue per mile of railway decreased from £1,125 16s. 10d. the previous year to £1,100 15s. for the year under review, and per train-mile from 9s. 2|d. to 9s. Id. The variations of traffic in the various districts were approximately as under : — Ghristchurch District, —Revenue, £676,802; decrease, £7,302. There was a large increase in the number of passengers carried, due to the visit of H.M.S. " New Zealand," but the passenger revenue shows a decrease. Parcels increased by nearly 15,000, chiefly cream traffic. Cattle increased by 5,000 and sheep by 257,000. Chaff, wool, timber, and merchandise show slight improvement, but grain decreased by 76,700 tons and minerals by 10,300 tons. There was less acreage under grain, and the harvest was also late. The decrease in coal was caused by the strike. Dunedin District. —Revenue, £497,527; increase, £5,409. There was an increase of 33,700 passengers, chiefly school and factory excursions. Season tickets also show an improvement. Parcels increased by 9,700. There was an increase of 57,700 sheep. Grain decreased by 47,700 tons, and there were minor decreases in wool and chaff. Timber increased by 2,100 tons, merchandise b3 r 6,100 tons, and minerals by 32,100 tons, the last-mentioned being in local coal during the stoppage of importation by sea. The grain-yield was poor and the acreage under crop less than last year. Inver car gill District.— Revenue, £329,297; decrease, £28,092. There was a decrease of 40,000 passengers, although school and factory excursions increased by 16,000. The decrease is attributable to loss of Easter traffic and exceptionally bad weather in the early part of the year. There was a slight improvement in parcels traffic. There were increases of 2,200 cattle and 18,800 sheep. Chaff and wool show improvement, but timber decreased by 7,200 tons, grain by 50,700 tons, merchandise by 6,000 tons, and minerals by 18,100 tons. Portions of the district had hardly recovered from the serious set-back caused by floods in the previous year. The increase of motor traffic has lessened the demand for oats, which is the staple crop. The decrease of minerals was caused by a strike of miners. hake Wakatipu Steamers. Revenue, £6,790; decrease, £231. Parcels and goods traffic generally show a slight improvement. The decrease is in passengers owing to the absence of holiday traffic. The train services generally have been well maintained. The following table shows the average late arrivals at destination for the year as compared with the previous year :—

Locomotive. Mr. H. H. Jackson, Chief Mechanical Engineer, reports as follows : — The engines, rolling-stock, plant, machinery, and appliances have been maintained in thoroughly efficient working-order, details of work being as follows : — Locomotives. —On the Ist April, 1913, there were 513 engines in service, and on the 31st March, 1914, there were 534 engines. One small tank engine was sold, and twenty-two new engines were added to stock. Of the new engines added to stock fifteen were built in the Government Railway workshops, and comprised one large tender engine, Class Bα, ten heavy tank engines, Class Wg, and four Class X 94-ton tender engines, four-cylinder " balanced-compound " ; seven Class Ad 72-ton tender engines, four-cylinder " balanced-compound," were completed under the contracts with Messrs.

Westinghouse Brake. —The work of equipping engines and rolling-stock on Gisborne Section with the automatic quick-acting Westinghouse air-brake' was completed during the year; the work on Whangarei Section is in hand and will follow on. Efficient arrangements are in force for the examination and upkeep of the Westinghouse brake. All new engines and rolling-stock built for sections on which the brake is in operation are equipped with it before being put into service. Car-lighting. —The oil-gas manufactured at the five separate Pintsch-gas works amounted to 11,188,020 cubic feet, costing 2s. 2-92 d. per 100 cubic feet. The increase in cost was due to having to rebuild the Palmerston North gasworks, which had been destroyed by fire. On sections not provided with Pintsch gas all cars are now lighted with acetylene gas. Motor-cars. —The motor-cars in use on the Culverden-Hanmer service have been kept in good and efficient working-order. One Westinghous?, petrol-electric rail motor-car for use on suburban services was under construction in the Railway workshops at the close - of the year. This car will be completed at an early date and put into service. Steamers. —The Railway Department's steamers on Lake Wakatipu service have been maintained in good working-order. Renewals and Replacements. —During the year one small tank engine, five cars, two brake-vans, seven wagons, and fourteen tarpaulins, all second-hand stock, were sold ; also four old cars and one damaged car, seven wagons, and 1,147 worn-out tarpaulins were written off. To replace rolling-stock sold or written off during the year under review, also the previous year, nine new bogie cars, one bogie brake-van, and eighteen wagons were built and 1,161 new tarpaulins were made. New stock to replace the engine, cars, brake-van, and wagons sold is under construction. In accordance with the practice of the Department the cost of replacing engines and rolling-stock sold or worn-out and written-off is debited to working-expenses. Train Running and Mileage. —There has again been an increase in train-mileage. Compared with 1912-13 the increase in 1913-14 is 303,044 train-miles, or equal to 3.36 per cent., and 514,648 engine-miles, or equal to 4.26 per cent. The following table shows particulars of the expenditure per train-mile : —

The increase in the Locomotive Branch is due to the extra cost of fuel, wages, and heavy repairs to engines. Stoebs. Mr. H. Baxter, Comptroller of Stores, reports as follows : — The value of stores, plant, and material (purchased under the Railway vote) on hand on the 31st March, 1914, at the various stores depots and sawmills amounted to £450,207 3s. Id., as against £328,754 18s. 2d. on the 31st March, 1913, an increase of £121,452 4s. lid. The value of stores on hand on account of additions to open lines amounted to £38,204 19s. Id., as against £37,801 16s. 6d. on the 31st March, 1913, an increase of £403 2s. 7d. The total stock on hand has, therefore, increased during the year by £121,855 7s. 6d.
