VICTORIAN RAILWAYS.

Me.boubne, July 20 Mr Lochhead, Railway Commissioner, in the course of a speech said the cost of running three thousand miles of Victorian railways to-day was exactly the same as when two thousand miles were running. The revenue was about the same, and the deficit about equals the interest on the cost of construction of this extra thousand miles. If the loan could be converted into three per cent at a reasonable rate, there would be no deficit.
