122 BETWEEN THE OCEAN AND THE LAKES New York City, within a short distance of their principal hotels. All other routes land their passengers in Jersey City, compelling them to secure the services of porters and hacks, in crossing the river, making an additional and disagreeable change incident to the New York and Erie Road. was paid, and an unheard-of salary for the executive " The only route that can land passengers by cars head of any corporation. The Board decided, however, that Moran was worth the outlay, and they in New York City." True. The Erie was already reaping a harvest of ills grown from the sowing of agreed to his terms. July 18, 1857, William E. the short-sighted management that, years before, Dodge, who was outraged because the Company had refused to let Erie itself become " the only route persisted in permitting work to be done on the railroad on Sunday, resigned from the Board. Moran that could land passengers by cars in New York City." was chosen in his place, and was unanimously Misfortune, indeed, seemed to have marked Erie for its own. It was evident that the Company's affairs were once more approaching a crisis. This was the situation that confronted the Erie when Charles Moran returned from Europe in July, 1857, whither he had gone the previous winter. Homer Ramsdell had private enterprises of much magnitude, and the increasing depression in the business affairs of the Company, lie declared, required that he should give them mofe of his personal attention, and he announced his determination to resign the Presidency of the Company. The Board of Directors had been led to believe that Charles Moran, better than any other person available, could take hold of the Company's critical affairs and straighten them out. They notified him of their belief, and solicited him to take charge of the management. He replied that he would undertake the task, with assurances that he could perform it if the Company would pay him $25,000 a year for his services. This was as much as the President of the United States elected President, Mr. Ramsdell continuing as a member of the Board. It was announced of Mr. Moran in the public prints, upon his election as President of the Erie, that he was a man of high character and integrity, of vigorous mind, and devoted to the study of political economy, " which was at the foundation of the success of any work of this description; that he had superior administrative ability, and that his election would give great satisfaction to all true friends of the enterprise, both at home and abroad." All this about Mr. Moran was undoubtedly true, but within the next two years he was to learn by bitter experience that it required something more than devotion " to the study of political economy " to be " at the foundation of the success " of such a work as the New York and Erie Railroad was.
