Representing in the expenditures of that year a special payment of $142,100, the cost of their employment gives a rate per car per annum of $70. The following table will show the number of cars in use and the work which hired cars assisted in performing each year since 1862. FREIGHT CARS AND THEIR WORK. 257 tons having been established in 1872 as a practicable load per car per annum, all the other years of the table show the rollingstock to have been in excess.
