hibits in verbal form the matter found on the charts, and third, a chronological list of all companies organized for operation in Greater New York, and distinguishing those now operated from those which have disappeared. The assistance of thèse lists it is thought will enable the reader to make any combination or analysis of the whole railroad situation with comparative ease.

Finally, there is included a series of six charts, exhibiting the intercorporate relations of all the companies which enter into the present operated systems within Greater New York.

Supplementing this report the Commission is preparing for publication in a subsequent annual report maps showing boundary lines of counties, towns and various municipalities which have existed within the territory of what is now Greater New York.

TRAVIS H. WHITNEY,

Secretary.
