CHARLES M. HAYS
President of the (lratld Trunk Pacific Railway.
One of the railroad leen of the times who has mastered all the intricacies of
railway work in his thirty-two years of continuous service, is (.Charles Melville Flays,
president of the (Grand Trunk Pacific ific Railway, and second vice-president and gen-
eral manager of the (!rand Trunk Railway. Born in 1856 at Reek Island, Ill., at
the age of seventeen he began to learn the a -b -e of railroading, as clerk in the pas-
senger department of the Atlantic and Paeifie road at St. Loris. Then, after a
year of this schooling had proved his fitness, he was promoted to the auditor`g
department and later to the general superintendent's office. From 1878.86 he wag
secretary to tht' general manager of two big roads, then general manager, later
attaining the dignity of general manager of the Wabash system and in 189.4 was
elected vlee-president.
In the two latter positions Mr. Bays represented his company as director
on the boards of the various companies in which his road was interested. In Jan -
nary, 1896, through the efforts of Sir Charles Rivers Wilson, he was made general
manager of the Grand Trunk at 525,000 a year with a five years' comma. Tho
road was in a debilitated state of health; it needed heroic treatment --strong toniest
quickly and properly administered, and deft surgery work in the way of euttint;
expenses and amputating useless members of the Stant.
Mr. Bays made it elear that, as he was to be responsible for results, he must

competition, it tnttst win its way by recognizing and applying American method./.
The English sehenes of operating did not tit the situation; the road needed a brink,
vigorous, clean-cut business system, with the moss of tradition ail removed. Silt.
Bays prescribed this and he saw that the medicine was administered.
Old bridges that should long before have been put on tho retired list were talent
down, and modern steel bridges substituted; tate road was double -tracked; primi
