1889. NEW ZEALAND.

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

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

To the Hon. the Ministeb for Public Woekh. Silt,- Government Buildings, Wellington, 25th June, 1889. We have the honour, in compliance with the direction in section 61 of " The Government Bailways Act, 1887," to submit the annual report on the working railways of New Zealand for the twelve months ended 31st March, 1889, for presentation to Parliament. Bevenue, Expenses, and Traffic. As the Act was only brought into operation on the 28th January last, the report necessarily deals with the results obtained under the management of the late Department of Working Railways-. The returns of traffic, revenue, and expenditure of tho various sections of railways are presented in the same tabular form as in the. annual reports of previous years, and therefore afford a ready means of comparison with the results formerly attained. The outcome of the year in respect of earnings is as follows : — £ b. d. Gross earnings ... ... ... 997,615 3 9 Working expenses ... ... ... 647,045 1 7 Net profit ... ... £350,570 2 2 The net profit oi £350,570 on a capital cost of £13,472,837 on 1,777 miles of railway gives a return of £2 12s. per cent., as against £2 6s. per cent, on £13,352,978 and 1,758 miles of the previous year. The total gross earnings were only £2,772 greater than the year before, but the expenditure was £40,233 less. As will readily be seen, it is to the saving in expenditure that the better net result is due. There is an increase of tonnage on nearly every section, the increase over the whole system being over 10 per cent, on the former year's returns. Tho principal items on which there are increases are grain, minerals, timber, and merchandise. On the other hand, the passenger traffic shows a falling-off of about 9 per cent., due partly, no doubt, to the number of persons attracted to the Australian Colonies by the large expenditure there on. public works and the Melbourne Exhibition, and to the saving habits induced among the people of the colony by the preceding years of low prices of produce and consequent dulness of trade. The recent four-weekly returns show over the main sections an increase in traffic, which is hopeful for the current year. The traffic for the last ten years has been as follows: —

Bates. Several important modifications in the direction of lowering rates on produce and merchandise for long distances have been made, with the object of encouraging settlement in the more remote districts. The minimum has also been greatly reduced on small lots of agricultural produce and on grain, to the advantage of the smaller class of settlers. Special rates have been gazetted to meet the varying circumstances of districts and of mineral and other industries, and in encouragement of the export trade of the colony. These several alterations will, it is believed, be of considerable advantage to the public. Particulars will be found on reference to Table No. 30. In the study of the export trade and of the various resources of the colony, with an intelligent appreciation of how the abundance of one district may supply the wants of another, the railways, by giving reasonable facilities for exchange, become a most important agency in quickening new industries into life, and in promoting the settlement and trade of the country. Condition of Lines and Appliances. The lines, structures, and rolling-stock are generally in good order. Some additions to workshops are required, so as to utilise labour-saving machinery in hand, and also to give much-needed room for the repairs in connection with the very extensive working-plant: this matter demands immediate attention, in order that economical working and efficiency may be maintained and extended. With the growth of traffic, more accommodation is needed at various places in the colony, for which it is desirable to make provision. Staff. The average number of railway employes during the year is about 4,200. They are well organized, and in a satisfactory state of discipline and efficiency, the evidence of which is to be found in the good condition of the railway property, in the punctuality of the train-services, and in the general conduct of the traffic. It seems worthy of notice that the anticipation expressed in the last paragraph of the last annual report, of improved economical results from recent changes and amalgamations, has been realised. It is due to the officers who introduced and carried out the changes that this acknowledgment should be accorded. Future Revenue. New Zealand, with its extensive seaboard and numerous ports, precludes the possibility of long haulage-distances on the railways and the profit arising therefrom. The trade of the country, being based chiefly on the pastoral and agricultural industries and in a less degree on the mineral, timber, and manufacturing industries, is capable of a steady but not a rapid expansion. There can therefore be no great increase in the gross railway revenue of any one year over the preceding. Any improvement in the net revenue result will depend quite as much on economy of working as on increase of business. For the current year —viz., the twelve months ending 31st March, 1890—the estimated gross revenue is £1,030,000, and the working expenses £660,000, giving an estimated net revenue of £370,000, or £19,430 more than for the twelve months ended 31st March, 1889. Accounts. Appended are accounts showing moneys received and expended during the year, which have been balanced with the accounts of the Colonial Treasurer and duly audited. We have the honour to be, Sir, Your most obedient servants, James McKereow, J. P. Maxwell, W. M. Hannay, The New Zealand Eailway Commissioners.
