EXHIBIT No. 9.

CHICAGO, BURLINGTON & QUINCY RAILROAD Co.

Statement showing revenue on basis of proposed advanced rates, present rates, and 1900 rates applied to tonnage moving in March, 1910, and September, 1909, as representative months. Where rates were not in effect in 1900 account stations not then in existence, the tonnage has been eliminated from all items. This statement indicates that under proposed rates the earnings would be during these two months $17,061.44 less than if the 1900 rates were applied.
