A board of directors was elected, and several changes were made in the officers of the company. The most important change, perhaps, was the election of John Glasson to be superintendent and treasurer of the company. The following stockholders were elected to constitute the new board of directors, each receiving 2234 votes: Mrs. S. A. Kidder, Peter Johnson, C. P. Loughridge, Samuel Granger, John Glasson, D. E. Morgan and F. G. Beatty. The directors organized by electing Mrs. Kidder, president; Peter Johnson vice president and auditor; C. P. Loughridge, general manager and chief engineer, John Glasson, superintendent and treasurer; F. G, Beatty, secretary and general freight and passenger agent. The same Station agents were re-appointed as are serving at present. The report of the president was very interesting and gratifying and showed that the business of the company has been decidedly satisfactory during the past year. The gross earnings for the past year was $129,086.27, being an increase over the previous year of $15,136.37. The operating expenses for the year was $78,843.53, an increase of $8,300.85 over the total expense of the year previous. In addition to the fixed charge of $16,380 on bonded debt, there was paid from income accounts, bills payable, interest and commission, $2050.79. The bonded debt was reduced $4000 during the year. The excess income over all expenses, as shown by the Secretary and Auditor’s detailed report, amounted to $13,735.35. From this surplus dividend No. 5 was paid about one month ago. A dividend (No. 4) of $5 per share was also paid on the first of last December, The recent experiment of the company in using oil for fuel on one of its engines has been attended with such good results that another engine has been equipped with an oil burner.
