A special meeting of the stockholders of this bank has been called for September 25 to vote upon a proposition to increase the capital
of the institution from $300,000 to $500,000 and also to make
an equal addition to ths surplus fund. The reason assigned
for this increase in capital is the rapidly

of

the bank. The course proposed, as stated in the circular to
the stockholders, is recommended as most advantageous for
the interests of the bank and of its individual stockholders,
and it has already been formally approved by holders of
more than two-thirds of the stock.

The meeting of the stockholders of the Dollar Savings &
Trust Company, of Youngstown, O., on August 12, resulted
in the approval of the plan to increase the capital stock of
the bank from $300,000 to $500,000. The new stock will be
sold at $140 per share. The names of the officials of the
institution were given in these columns on August 3.
A new
bank and office building to cost about $200,000 is now being
erected for the company.

—The business of the First National Bank of Chicago still
keeps increasing in a very striking way. Comparing the figures in the return for July 15 with those in the return under
date of April 24, we find that in this period of less than three
months there was a further addition to deposits in amount
of over 5}4 million dollars, bringing the total of gross deposits above $74,000,000.
The growth of this institution has
teen one of the most striking features of the financial history of recent times. The First National of Chicago is the
bank of which the rresent Secretary of the United States
Treasury, Mr. Lyman S. Gage, was once the head. But that
of course was a good many years ago. The institution had
attained considerable dimensions while he was still connected with it, but the advance since he severed his relations with it has been even more noteworthy than before.
The capital was formerly $3,000,000, but in Jaly of last year,
when the Union National Bank of Chicago was absorbed, the
opportunity was taken to increase it to $5 000,000, at which

the cause of the trouble.
The failure of these banks following the suspension of the
Cuyahoga Savings & Banking Co. has impelled the Clearing
House Association of Cleveland to take up the subject of
supervision over all the backs, non-members as well as members, and it is thought probable that a chaDge will be effected
in the association with the view to bringing the banks more
directly under the regulation of the Clearing House. The
matter is at present under consideration.

Reports continue to come in to the effect that more iron

Tuesday. There were rather vague rumors of an unfavorable character in regard to corn, but otherwise no develop
ments to cause a change of sentiment, and the reaction
mentioned seemed to be a natural one in view of the handsome profits that had accumulated.
There has, in fact, been no change of importance during
the week affecting security values, and from the decline
noted on Tuesday there has been a substantial recovery.
Tim recovery has been stimulated, no doubt, by reports of
railway earnings, which show a remarkable degree of activ
ity, especially in the South and West.
The volume of busi

Stock and Bond Sales.— The daily and weekly record of
stock and bond sales at the various stock Exchanges, formerly given on this page, has been transferred to a place by
itself.
It will be found to-day on page 434.

Railroad and Miscellaneous Stocks.— The stock market
continued firm and active on Monday, but heavy realizing
sales on Tuesday reversed the tone of the market, since
which it has been irregular and the volume of business
greatly reduced. The total transactions on Thursday were
less than 300,000 shares, in which only a few issues were
prominent. To day's market was more active and firmer;
in most cases Tuesday's decline has been recovered from,
and closing quotations generally compare favorably with
those of last week. The Erie issues were notably active,
presumably on its favorable traffic reports, and with other
coal stocks have been the strong features of the market.
Southern Pacific and Union Pacific have also been active
and firm. Twin City Rapid Transit advanced over 3 points
on its largely increased earnings, but the local traction
issues were neglected and relatively weak.

gross earnings from operation
decreased $77,229, or 2-99 per cent as compared with the previous
year, and the net earnings deoreased $63,. 01, or 6-11 per cent. The
ratio of expenses to earnings was 51-67 per cent, an Increase of 5 77
per cent. Including taxes and betterment*, the ratio was 6S 19 per
cent, an Increase of 1-39 per oent. There was expended for maintenance of way and structures $4i,843, or 21 97 percent more than in
the preceding year. This increase Is due to the construction of 4-46
miles of new sidings more than last year and to the greater number of
cross tlfS put in the track; 9-9 miles of new 80 pound steel rail were
laid in the rnaiu track, replacing lighter rill; 92,433 cross ties. ?>9,3y6

Work has been commenced on the elimination of the srade crossing at
Genung8t.,Middletown.| The block signal system which was installed
between West End and Broau way, 1'aterson. last year, has been extended to North Paterson, a distance of 3 l miles. Maluieuanceof
equipment decreased $78,71< or •J2"09 per oent. This, decrease is
nrmoipally due to the faot that fewer cars have been purchased during
the year and charged to this account, and also to a less number of cars
being equipped with safety appliances In accordance with the requirements of ihe national and state laws. During th* year air brakes
were applied to 7 45 freight cars a* a cost of $1 7,1 21, which was charged
to operating expenses, making 71 per oent of the total number of oars

White Pass & Yukon Railway.
(Statement for year ending June 30, 1901. J
The Hon. S. Carr Glyn, who presided at the annual meeting
in London, August 9, said in part
The net profit for the year ending June 30, after bringing into
account Interest accrued on the local companies' bonds for the six
months since the date of the closing of their books, and after deducting interest paid upon debenture stock and debentures of this company
up to June 30, is shown to be £261,058. After adding to this the
amount brought forward from last year, the total profit to be dealt
with at this time amounts to £344.373. Out of this profit an interim
cash dividend of 5 per cent (£50,000) was paid on March 22 l^st. and
the balanoe has been returned to the local companies to enable them
to pay for the completion of the seoond poitlon of the railway, and for
other capital expenditure In connection with the enterprise. The
:

<

directors now propose that In respect ol such profits so applied a bonus
distribution be made to the shareholders at the rate of 25 per cent. In
the company's full-paid capital stock. This will absorb £275,000 of
the profits. It mnst not, however, be supposed that it is out of the
profits of this year only that the 30 per cent is being paid, but it is out
of the profits resulting from the operation of the enterprise from the
start three years ago up to June 30.
From Jan. 1 to July 31.1901 (7 months), the gross traffic receipts
on the railway, as advised by mail and cable, have amounted to £243,770, an increase of something more than £53,800 compared with the
corresponding period of last year. The earnings for the month of
July show a decrease of a little over £6,175 compared with the
earnings of July last year; but this deorease is explained as being due
to goods having been rushed through to Dawson immediately on the
opening of navigation to such an extent as to have overstocked the
Dawson market. We are advised that the prospects for business
during the months of August and September— our best months— are
good. Up to the end of May the amount of revenue freight carried
over the railway was 10,077 tons, as against 6,346 tons for the corresponding period of last year, and during the same period the earnings
from passenger trafflo were £16,816, oompared with £ 9,633 for last
year.

Susquehanna Iron & Steel Company.
{Report for year ended June SO, 1901. J
President Charles A. Porter says in substance
Since the organization of the company two years ago, it has paid to
stockholders In dividends 24 per cent, equal to 12 per cent per annum,
the total amount paid being $360,000. During the first six months of
the present fiscal year great depredations were enoountered in all
branches of the iron business. Prices took an unfavorable tendency
until there was practically no margin in the business. This was contrary to all usual conditions, as raw material did not recede proportionately. The management de emed it advisable to take some low
contracts in order to keep the plant in full operation, relying upon
the current ordere for a more favorable market to equalize the price
on the low oontraots. Sorap, wages, and other material advanoed,
while the bar iron market remained stationary.
In our last annual statement, June 30, 1900, there was a surplus of
$117,899 34. This was bas^d on what was considered a very conservative valuation of materials. This surplus has been reduced by
depreciation in prloes, In the large coinage of pig Iron, and other
materials carried in stock. While this and other losses reduced the
Burplus, the company maintained its dividend, which was paid July 2,
1901. On account of the pig iron market being overstocked and the
large quantities of pig iron on hand, it was deemed advisable to put
out of blast the Aurora farnaoe in July, 1900, and the Vesta furnace
one month later. The last-named furnace has remained idle since
that time, while the Aurora furnace was put in blast May 23 of the
present year for the purpose of oonsuming the large quantities of
material on hand.
The conditions of the market to day are more profitable than those
which existed at the beginning of the past year, and all Indications
point to a maintenance of the present fair prices. The company does
not make any iron to carry in stook, the mills are run on orders only,
and orders now on hand Insure the full operation of the mills until

Telephone Telegraph & Cable Co. of America.— Offer to
Purchase.— Charles W. Morte, Chairman of the American
Ice Co. of this city, has made a proposition to purchase at
least two-thirds of the capital stock, paving therefor 50 per
cent of the amount paid in. President Thomas says
To TnE Stockholders The directors are In receiptof a proposition
from Mr. O. W. Morse of New York to purchase from each stockholder
all of his holdings at 50 per cent of tbe actual amount that each one
lias paid in. This purchase Is conditional upon at least two-thirds i--.\)
of the total number of shares Issued and outstanding being delivered
to the City Trust Co. of New York, No. 36 Wall St., New York City, on
or before Sept. 10. 1901. Stockholders desiring to avail themselves of
this offer should forward their stock at once. This stock will be held
by the City Trust Co. of New York pending an examination of the affairs of the company and also pending a verification of the assets of
the company, consisting principally of stocks and bonds owned in
other corporations.
As soon as this examination has been completed, payment will be
made in cash for tbe stock so deposited The Board of Directors,
realizing the necessity of expending a very large amount of money to
put the company in operation, and a large number of stockholders not
being willing to advanoe additional funds, recommend to you the acceptance of the above proposition.
James M. Thomas, President.
"I believe that there is
Mr. Morse is quoted as saying
plenty of room for healthy competition in the telephone business, and I'm willing to assume the risk. The company controls valuable franchises and has its wires in the subways of
this city.
I am assuming the responsibility as an individual
and there is nothing of a political character about it." V.

Texas Oil Companies. Status.
of the "Manufacturers' Record, " writing from Beaumont,
Tex., under date of Aug. 17, says:
So far there are only four or five companies prepared for any selling,
namely, the J. M. Guftey Petroleum Co., the Hlgyins Oil & Fuel Co.,
the Hey wood Oil Co. and the Lone Star & Crescent Oil Co. Of course,
other companies are prepared to sell oil at the well, but the concerns
named are those which have facilities for marketing their oil, or are
rapidly completing them. * * * Companies that sell their oil to
others at the mouth of the well, and do nothing else, will do well to
receive 15 cents a barrel for it. If they eo further, and deliver it in
tank cars of their own, they may get 17 or 18 cents plus freight. The
companies now doing business claim to be getting these prices twice
over, but the writer knows of ins'anoes where bids as low as 20 cents
have been made, and perhaps lower. As long as the oil flows of its
own force there is a profit at 10 cents a barrel at the mouth of the
well.

Several new wells have come in during the week, the most interesting one being that of the Export Oil & Pipe Line Co., fousded and organized by ex-8enator Chaa. A. Towne of Minnesota The well is the
first well that is really off the Hill, although it ia not far off.
It is 100
feet east of the most eastern gut-her on the Hill. It ia deeper than any
of the others, being something Use 1,150 feet, but it seems to support
the theory that oil will be obtained by those drillers off the Hill who

in the mill.
Four mills are now running, and it is Intended to have

Works, at Cleveland, a six mill plant, has also been started, many of
he old men having returned to work, and the mill is running to about
full capacity.
In the hoop mills tbe ilvht is over, so far as the non-union mills of
the Amcroan Steel Hoop Co. are concerned. The Clark and Painter
works of Pitthburg ore running full-day turn and the Lindsay <fc MoCatoheon Works in Allegheny and the Monest-en Works at Monessen
are running to more than half capacity. The Amalgamated have given
up the fight at these mills.
The failure of the Amalgamated oiiicers to get the men In the Carnegie mills to go on a strike and also the refusal of the Chicago men to
break their contracts have disheartened the strikers, and many of
them would be glad to return to work if they could see their way cb ar
to do so.
Fully 80 per cent of t the men at the National Tube Works, at McKeesport, who went on etrike would return to work if the mills were
opened, but they fear the acta of violence that would be committed by
the other 20 per cent made up of the disorderly element. A break lias
been made, however, and about 200 machinists and others at the National Tube works who went on strike will return to work on Thursday
night.

Universal Tobacco Co.— Acquisitions. There are many
rumors concerning acquisitions of independent plants by this
company, which was organized last spring with $10,000,000
authorized capital stock, consisting of $7,003,000 common
and $3,000,000 6 per cent non-cumulative preferred. It seems
to be a settled fact that the Weissinger Tobacco Company of
Louisville, Ky., has been or is about to be acquired by the
Universal Company. One of the directors of the company,
upon being asked concerning rumors with respect to D. H,
McAlpin Co., stated that while it was true that negotiations were progressing with several concerns, matters had
not progressed to a point where anything could be publicly
announced at this time. The company has taken over the

ThH seaboard market also has been fairly actives merchants
generally experiencing a good trade. The labor situation ban
continued to improve, the U. S. Steel Corporation being in a

Speculation in cotton for future delivery has been on a
less extensive scale than toted last week, due to the outside
interest failiDg to follow the market, the continued uncertainty in the minds of many in the trade as to the probable
yield of the growing crop, and also in a measure to the fact
tbat on Friday night the market closed for a three days' holi
day. Prices, however, have advanced. The situation in
Central Texas has not been relieved to any appreciable extent.
The advices received from both private and Govern
ment sources have been of continued deterioration in this
section and estimates of the yield of the cotton crop west of
the Mississippi River indicate a crop for this section of the
cotton belt considerably short of last year. The information
from most points east of the Mississippi have been of tos much
moisture. While many contend tbat the excessive rains have
done no serious damage, the crop is backward and a late Fall
is necessary for a good crop; consequently this brings an unknown quantity into the market and adds to the general unsettled leeling.
Business in the cotton goods trade in the
domestic market has shown some improvement for the week,
and Manchester reports a fairly good business. Continental
advices, however, have continued to complain of a comparatively slow demand. To-day there was a quiet market and
prices weakened a few points under liquidation of long contracts. The close was steady at a iset lots for the day of 4@
7 points. Cotton on the spot has advanced, closing at 8%c.
for middling uplands.
The rates on and off middling, as established Nov. 21, 1900,
by the Revision Committee, at whioh grades other than
middling may be delivered on oontraot, are as follows.

The weather of the week has been generally unfavorable for cotton.
Complaints of shedding and rusting are general throughout the entire
cotton belt, except in Missouri and Oklahoma, but in Oklahoma the
crop has been somewhat damaged by hot, dry weather; s me favorable reports are, however, received from Tennessee, Arkansas and
Louisiana. Cotton is backward and in poor condition in Texas,
although the late has improved where rain fell; it is opening quite
rapidly in portions of Georgia, and Alabama, and ploking is iu progress in those States as well as in many localities in the western portion of the cotton region.

Weekly Reports on Cotton— The weikly

crop

bulletins issued from the various States' headquarters under
the auspices of the Climate and Crop Division o; the Weather
Bureau of the United States Department of Agriculture give
more extensive information as to cotton than the general
statement issued from Washington.
therefore give below those received up to the time of going to press
North Carolina— Reports indicate very unfavorable weather conditions for farm work, due to the continuous rains in all sections,
which have not only washed the lands badly, but have seriously Impeded all fleld work, at the same time being most favorable for the
growth of weeds. 8uch cotton as Is well cultivated is doing nicely,
bat as a rule it is shedding badly, and not fruiting as much as could be
desired. Rain has lnj ured the top crop and on flat lands It Is rusting.
Farmers are behind in hilling on account of the death of so many
horses in the miasmatic regions.
Booth Carolina— Many places report rains every day and some Of
them heavy. In some localities lowlands overflowed. Much damage
is reported to crops from rain and oloudiness.
Cotton is shedding and
rusting, particularly on sandy land; on day lands the damage is not
so general. In many places tbe growth is rapid and still fruiting
Picking, though later than usual, will be quite generally oomuienced
next week.
Alabama.— Cotton recovered somewhat from the storm damage of
the previous week, made good growth, and opened quite rapidly, with
picking progressing slowly; rust, rot and shedding are spreading, and
the condition of this staple has been considerably lowered.
Mississippi.— Tbe general reports about cotton are not very encouraging. After the hea^y rains of the 14-17^faused by the Gulf storm
oticed that a great deal of cotton was
iroving northward, it w»blown down, and many bolls were entirely blown off. while noine of
those remaining on the stalk were caused to rot by the additional
rains of last week. There Is a general complaint about rust, shedding
and boll worms. The latter oomplaint being oontined to a very few
counties only. Picking has already begun in Madison, Lincoln and
several of the Dalta counties, and many correspondents believe that
by next week it will be general.
Arkansas.— The temperature was slightly higher during the week.
The precipitation was generally light and was not well distributed.
In some localities orops are suffering for want of moisture, while in
others they are growing nioely. Cotton as a rule is fair to good, but
In some plaoes it is shedding badly and is being damaged by rust.

Combining the foregoing results with those for the halfyear (published in the Chronicle May 11, page 910,) we
have the following exhibit for the nine months. It is seen
that on a capitalization of $21,061,000 the mills have paid
out in dividends $902,045 In the nine months of the present
year, or an average of 4-23 per cent, against $1,469,590, or
7-01 per cent, in the like period of 1900.
In 1899 the average
dividend was 3 89 per cent, in 1898 it was 1-33 per cent and
in 1897

reached 2 37 per cent.

Friday. Aug. 30, 1901.
A fairly full volume of business was transacted in the market for wheat flour. The jobbing trade in many instances
has woiked out of supplies, and with the market for the grain
apparently on a steady basis more of a disposition has been
shown to anticipate wants to some extent. Offerings of newcrop winter- wheat flour have been increasing, but prices
have held about steady. City mills have had a fair sale.
The demand for rye flour has continued strictly of a jobbing
character. Corn meal has been quiet, but prices have held
about steady.
Speculation in wheat for future delivery has been on a less
extensive scale, comparatively little outside interest being
shown. The tendency of values has been towards a slightly
lower basis, prices for the week showing a slight decline.
There has been no encouragement to the market in the European advices, they generally reporting weakening prices.
The world's shipments for last week were large, reaching a
total of about 10,000,000 bushels, Russia being a fairly large
shipper, and there was crop news from Russia of a favorable
character. Weather conditions in spring- wheat belt have
been fairly favorable, although some reports have been received of rains interfering with the harvesting. The crop
movement has been steadily increasing, receipts at Western
points for the week being fairly heavy. The spot market has
been slightly easier with futures, but at the small decline in
prices exporters have been fairly good buyers here and at
outports. To day there was a firmer market on steady foreign advices and buying by shorts to cover contracts. The
spot market was fairly active. The sales for export here
and at outports were 325,000 bushels.

Feeding

Berry,

1901, have been generally favorable, except in the Middle and Sooth
Atlantic and East Gulf States and Tennessee, where In nearly all these
sections heavy rains have damaged crops and interfered with work,
and In some districts washed lands and caused inundations. Drought
conditions still prevail In pcrtlons of Iowa, Oklahoma and Texas, In
the last-named State becoming serious In localities, and rain Is also
needed In Miohlgan, Nebraska, the North Paollio ooast States, and portions of Kansas and Missouri. The temperature conditions have been
favorable for best results, except; In portions j>t Missouri, Kansas,

Oklahoma, Texae, Montana and Washington.
Corn.— Continued Improvement In the condition of late corn Is generally reported from the principal oorn-growlng States. Reports indicate tbat late corn In Iowa has made rapid progress and that the ears
are filling beyond previous expectations it shows some Improvement
In most localities in Nebraska has improved in eastern and middle
Kansas and in western and southeastern Missouri; elsewhere in the
last-named State the crop la deteriorating and much complaint Is received of ears not filling well. In the States of the Ohio Valley the
prospeots for late corn are decidedly Improved in some sections
tlelds previously reported beyond recovery will be reclaimed, and the
indications are that the prospective yield wlU be largely Increased.
Cutting has begun in portions of Minnesota and Wisconsin.
Spring Wheat.— Spring-wheat harvest is practically finished in all
sections, although retarded some by rain in South Dakota and Mln nesota. Thrashing is general and the yields are, as a rule, satisfactory, except In North Dakota, where they continue below expectations.
Plowing.— Plowing for fall seeding is In general progress in all sections, with soil usually in good oondition, exoept in the Central Mississippi and Lower Missouri Valley, where rain Is needed to put the
ground In proper oondition for this work.

Oats for future delivery at the Western market have received a limited amount of attention, but there has been a
slight weakening of prices.
The movement of the crop has
been fairly full, and this coupled with large carrying charges
has created some pressure to sell. The spot market has been
moderately active at a decline in prices. To-day there was a
steadier market.

Indian corn futures have been moderately active and there
has been a further weakening of prices. Weather conditions
have been generally favorable. Needed rains have fallen
west of the Mississippi and climatic conditions have been
generally favorable in the eastern section of the corn belt.
One authority says that the corn crop is progressing favorably and that there has been a moderate improvement in the
condition. Offerings of corn by the interior have been reported as increasing. Receipts have been increasing, and
this, coupled with the continued improvement in the outlook, has prompted fpeculative selling, largely to liquidate

however, some falling off compared with recent weeks, as
is natural after the first round of the season's business has
been mainly put through. Stiple lines have again figured
most prominently in the orders coming forward and buyers
are already experiencing difficulty in purchasing for either
spot or forward delivery in some of the most prominent
makes. The market is decidedly firm for black and blue

market closes the week
with a better tone prevailing than has been noticeable for
some time past. Sellers are showing more confidence in the
situation and more interest has been evinced by buyers, both
orders and inquiries being more numerous. The general
demand is still directed almost entirely to supplying near
requirements, but some of the larger operators have been
putting forward propositions for considerable quantities of
well-sold-up condition
staple goods for future delivery.
in most directions has made sellers as a rule independent of
such propositions at old price level, and business has been
done at a quotable advance in both brown and bleached cottons here, while print cloths have further advanced %c. per
yard. Raw cotton is still a supporting factor and the reports
coming in from jobbers show that distribution of merchandise from second hands is on a liberal scale.

The value of the New York exports for the year to date
has been $7,675,605 in 1901, against $10,462,489 in 1900.
Buying of brown sheetings and drills for export has been
on a moderate scale, but there has been more doing by the
home trade, particularly in the lighter weights by converters.
Leading makes of Eastern sheetings have advanced "^e. and
some Southern drills are J^c. higher. In bleached cotton,
such lines as Fruit of the Lwm, Lonsdale, Rivals and Masonville 4-4 makes are "^c. higher and the bleached goods
market generally is firm. Low grades of wide sheetings are
also firm, with an occasional make raised about 5 per cent
per yard. Coarse colored cottons are in better request, with
buyers finding increasing difficulty in plaoing orders at old
prices.
Ducks are quiet but steady.
fair business has
been done in print cloths on the basis of %% rz. for regulars.
Wide goods are firm and %o. higher. Stocks of prints are
generally small and prices show a tendency against buyers in

The Colorado Legislature, Session 1901, passed a

a new method of assessing and taxing the output of
mines. The County officials advise us that, under
this law, the increase in the assessed valuation will

Ouray County's main source of wealth Is its gold
mines, valued at over $lo,ooo,>.t0. The Revenue and
Camp Bird Mines, which have been in operation a
number of years, are in the county, and it is estimated that these two mines alone ship out of the
County in gold bullion over $5,0(0 daily.
The City of Ouray, the County Seat, is the distributing point for a large section of country, and the supplying of the mines and cattle ranches makes it a
center of considerable importance.
