In the t idled Sti tes there are 234.- 717 miles of railroad, not counting the side tracks. The capitalization or cost of construction of these roads was $15.- oiis,7ii7,57(i, or $03.!>44 the mile. Offi cial estimates for three fourths of the railroad mileage of the country show that the systems operating the lines covered by this mileage.have issued stock.to ttie amount of $5,403,833,700 and bonds to the amount of $(.;.214.245,- ot h i, making the total stock and bonded issues of these roads $11,018,078,700. The capitalization of the railroads in the United States, it is fairly safe to say, is a billion or a billion and half dollars less than the actual cost of their construction. The total railroad mileage in Europe ts 177.305 miles. . The capitalization or cost of construction of the railroads in Europe was $22.4Sr2,218,315, or $126,- S50 the mile. In all Europe there are 57,352 fewer miles of railroad than there are in the United States.

After dodging through secret passages Young suddenly stepped into a luxuri ously furnished apartment, tn which on a divan sat a very pretty Turkish woman. Of course she was the woman he had met on the. river. . That was the year of the earthquake in Turkey—1804. I think.
