THE CHRONICLE
Money on call, representing bankers’ balances,
loaned on the Stock Exchange this week at 4 per
cent and at
per cent, averaging 3£ per cent. On
Monday the rates were 3 to 4 per cent, averaging
3 f per cent. On Tuesday, Wednesday and Thurs
day the rates were 3£ to 4 per cent, averaging 3 f per
cent. On Friday the rates were 2\ to 3| per cent,
averaging 3£ per cent. Banks and trust companies
loaned at 4 per cent as the minlmm. Time money
was easier for sixty days early in the week at
per
cent, but there was little demand for short-time loans.
Some loans at 4£ per cent on exceptional callateral
for four to six months were made in the first half of
the week, but ordinary loans on good mixed collat
eral were generally held at 4| @ 5 per cent up to the
close o f business on Wednesday. Very little was dore
at these rates. Borrowers insisted that, upon equal
collateral, they were entitled to the same rate as the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company. On Thursday time
money was freely offered at 4£ per cent for sixty days
and 4£ to 4£ per cent for three to six months on good
mixed collateral. A concession of \ per cent was made
on commercial paper, and there was a fair icquiry
for choice names, both from local and out-of-town
institutions. There is very little good paper on the
market. Rates are 4 f @ 5 per cent for sixty to ninety
day endorsements, 4 f @ 5 per cent for prime four to
six months’ single names and 5 @ 5^ per cent for
names not so well known.
There was no change this week in the official rates
of discount by any of the European banks. Discounts
in the open market at London were a shade harder.
They were steady at Paris and easier at Berlin.
The rate of exchange at Berlin on London advanced
to 20 marks, 50 pfennigs, which is very close to the
gold-export point, and indicates the transfer of funds
to London to take advantage of the higher rate of
interest there. This week’s return of the Bank of
England shows that the ratio of reserve to liaoilities
is 47'38 per cent, against 46*05 per cent last week
and 49 04 per cent in the corresponding week of last
year. The cable reports discounts of sixty to ninety
day bank bills at London
per cent. The open
market rate at Paris is 2 f to 2| per cent, and at
Berlin and Frankfort it is 2£ to 2£ per cent. A c
cording to our special cable from London, the Bank
of England gained £871,012 bullion during the week
and held £34,382,758 at the close of the week. Our
correspondent further advises us that the gain was
due to receipts of £909,000 net from the interior of
Great Britain, to imports of £22,000 from Australia,
and to exports of £50,000 to Argentina and £10,000
to the Gape.

operations would be canceled by April 1 by means of
the exports of merchandise in excess of imports, and
that in 1903 we shall import more gold than we export. The Assay Office paid for domestic bullion,
$560,543 70. Gold received at the Custom House dur
ing the week $13,791, of which $638 was in U. S.
gold coin and $13,153 in bullion.
Nominal quotations for sterling exchange were
4 84£ for long bills and 4 87^@4 88 for sight. The
market on Monday was a shade easier at 4 8390®
4 8410 for sixty-day bills, 4 8690@4 87 for sight,
and 4 8730@4 8740 for cables.
On Tuesday long
bills were 5 to 10 points lower, sight bills declined 5
points and cables were 5 points lower. The market
waB weak on Wednesday at a decline of 5 points in sixtyday and sight bills and 10 points in cables. On
Thursday the market was very weak the greater part
of the day, closing steady at the decline, with a
slight improvement in the tone. On Friday there
was a better tone and a recovery to Tuesday’ s rates.

THE
M A G N ITU D E OF OUR
PRODUCTION.
IR O N
The American Iron & Steel Association has made
public the statistics of the country's pig iron produc
tion for the late calendar year as compiled by Mr.
James M. Swank, its General Manager. The re
sults are as expected—that is, they show that the
make of iron in the United States was of unprece
dented and extraordinary proportions. The total fell
but little short of 18 million gross tons, the exact
figure being 17,821,307 tons. There was an increase,
roughly, of two million tons as compared with the
calendar year 1901, whioh latter in turn had shown
an increase of somewhat over two million tons com
pared with the calendar year 1900. In other words,
in 1902 the United States produced four million tons
more iron than two years before.
The fact be
comes additionally significant when It is recalled that
the 1900 make of iron (13,789,242 tons) had been the
largest ever reached up to that time.
Considering the many retarding circumstances
which prevailed during the year, operating to restrict
the production, it must certainly be considered note
worthy that it should have been found possible to
turn out so much iron. Mr. Swank deems it remark
able that there should have been such a large increase
when there were such serious adverse conditions to
contend with, chiefly inadequate transportation facil
ities, resulting in a short supply of coke and iron ore
and the banking for longer or shorter periods of many
furnaces. The anthracite coal strike also seriously
Interfered with the activity of many Eastern fur
naces.
As bearing on the magnitude of the 1902 total, a
statement made by Mr. Swank In his present re
port, and which embodies a comparison made by our
selves on some former occasions, is highly suggestive.
The reader may recall that in the calendar year 1901
the United States produced more pig iron than Great
Britain and Germany— the two other great iron pro
ducing countries of the world—combined. With the
further increase in output which occurred in 1902 it
is possible to say that this country made more pig
iron than Great Britain and Germany, supplemented
by Belgium. The United Kingdom in 1901 produced
7,761,890 gross tons of pig. For 1902 the output of
that country was presumably somewhat over 8 million
tons. The production in Germany and Luxemburg
in 1901 was 7,860,893 metric tons and for 1902 it may
be estimated half a million tons more. Belgium's
output in 1902, we should judge, was In the neighbor
hood of l i million tons. Hence the statement that
the output of the United States at 17,821,307 tons
was in excess of the combined make of Iron in the
same period of twelve months of Great Britain, Ger
many and Belgium seems well within the mark.
In fact we may go a step further and declare that
neither Great Britain nor Germany produced as much
iron in the whole of 1902 as did the United States
during the last six months of that year. Daring
those six months, notwithstanding all the hindrances
and drawbacks already referred to, 9,012,733 tons of
iron were made in the United States.
This is a
million tons in excess of Great Britain's output for
the twelve months and half a million tons in excess of
that of Germany. We may add that Germany has
never as yet produced nine million tons of iron in any
fu ll year, and that the United Kingdom; but once
[V ol. LXXYI.
reached that figure, namely 9,421,435 tons in 1899.
Indeed, as recently as 1897 our own make of iron was
not much in excess of 9 million tons per annum.
In view of the magnitude of our production, the
promptness and completeness with which the returns
are compiled deserves notice. No statistics for the
full year are available as yet for either .Great
Britain or Germany, and it will be many months
before the official figures of either country are made
known. Mr. Swank issued his figures for the same
period of twelve months on Saturday last, January
24. This means that these elaborate results, covering
a total greater, as already shown, than Germany,
Great Britain and Belgium combined, and embracing
returns from 22 separate States— official returns, too,
— were gathered and collated inside of twenty-five days
after the close of the period to which they relate.
The achievement is the more noteworthy when it is
recalled that Germany and Great Britain not only
have smaller results to report on, but also in each in
stance have a much more limited territory to cover.
The matter is one to which we have referred in previ
ous years, the United States having long been dis
tinguished in that way, but added importance is
given to it under the growth in output and the addi
tion of new districts to the list. We give below the
half-yearly totals back to 1888.

If production was of extraordinary proportions, con
sumption wa3 of still greater magnitude. The de
mand all through the year was far in excess of Bupply.
This is well shown in the situation which developed
as regards unsold stocks. Mr. Swank reports that
the American Pig Iron Storage Warrant ^Company
held no pig iron whatever in any of its yards on De
cember 31 1902. He also points out that this is the
first time since its organization in 1889 that the com
pany has not held at least a small quantity of pig iron
in its yards at the close of a calendar year. At the
end of 1901 It had 3,000 tons. As for the stocks of
pig iron unsold In the hands of manufacturers or
under their control, the amount, which had been ex
ceptionally small at the beginning of 1902, was still
further reduced, the aggregate December 31 1902
being only 49,951 tons, against 70,647 tons December
31 1901 and 442,370 tons December 31 1900. The
49,951 tons is less than a single day's product.
As a result of this state of things (which extended
to steel as well as to iron), it became necessary to sup
plement home supplies of iron and steel with large im
portations from abroad. Of pig iron our Imports for
1902 were 625,383 tons, as against only 62,930 tons in
1901 and 52,565 tons in 1900. Taking Iron and steel
in all its forms the imports were 1,213,255 tons in
1902 against 221,297 tons in 1901 and 209,955 tons in
1900. Our exports at the same time were heavily
diminished. Of pig iron we exported only 27,487
tons, against 81,211 tons in 1901 and 286,687 tons in
1900. Of steel our shipments were 2,409 tons in 1902,
against 28,614 tons and 107,385 tons, respectively.

Taking all the shipments reportedly weight, the ex
ports were 372,811 tons, against 700,852 tons and
1,154,284 tons in the two years preceding. Allowing
for the changes in stocks and the imports and ex
ports, we get the following comparative statement as
to the domestic consumption of pig iron.

THE CHRONICLE.
duty," Bays this Committee, ‘ -'to persons who may
choose to deal with corporations to look after the
solvency of such artificial bodies nor to stockholders to
prevent them from going into such concerns, the idea
being that in the case of ordinary business corporations’ the State’s duty ends in providing clearly that
creditors and stockholders shall at all times be pre
cisely informed of all the facts attending both the
organization and management of such corporations.’ ’
We do not suppose that the Committee means that
the State should require in favor of creditors much
more publicity than is required for a first-class rating
by a meicantile agency. Indeed, its forms for the
official returns to be made scarcely go as far as that.
The Committee recognizes a point, unfortunately
rather generally evaded or forgotten, that a share of
capital stock, although nominally one hundred dol
lars in value, represents, as the word implies, only a
certain share or proportion of whatever net assets the
corporation has, which may be anything or nothing.
FiDarclal institutions of every description and
public service corporations were expressly excluded
from the scope of its inquiry. It confines itself to the
elaboration, in a draft statute submitted by it, of the
principles of incorporation which it has sotwell stated,
and of provisions for organization, maintenance and
taxation calculated to adapt the law to that concep
tion and to modern needs, with as little disturbance
of^existing conditions as may be.
When one turns from the general statement of prin
ciples’,^ the statute recommended, the first feeling is
one of disappointment because of the limited charac
ter of the changes proposed. Upon second thought,
however, one must admit that the draft recommended
is as radical as is wise, if we are to hope for its prompt
enactment into law. And when once the State of
Massachusetts has recognized the principles involved,
their complete realization cannot long be deferred. We
may hope that, at some later date, the corporation la v
of that State will acquire, without loss of stability, the
breadth and convenience given by the New Jersey law
and by the English Companies Act.
The specific recommendations of the Committee
are that incorporation be permitted for practically
every lawful private purpose, that all restrictions on
the maximum amount of capital stock be removed,
and that it shall be lawful to make payment for stock
in^cash or in property. This last is, perhaps, the pro
vision commonly^most important in considering in
corporation. And the recommendation of the Com
mittee is as valuable as it is novel in this country. It
is based, apparently, upon the registration provisions
of the English Companies Act. The incorporators
and not the State are to pass upon the value of the
property contributed. Stock may be issued for cash,
property, services or expenses. But either the origi
nal articles of incorporation, or, in case of increase of
stock, a certificate for the purpose must be filed for
public record, giving the location and area of all real
estate, describing all personal property in such detail
as the Commissioner of Corporations may require,
and clearly stating the nature of any services or ex
penses; and in each case the amount of stock issued
for the property or purpose must also be stated. Thus,
any person who will consult the record may always as
certain the original investment on the faith of which
the corporation does business. He is to that extent
better off, and in no case worse off, than if he were
dealing with an individual. It is further provided
[V ol. LXXVI.
that the directors who sign the papers relative to the
issue of stock shall be j dntly and severally liable to
any stockholder of the corporation for actual
damages caused by any statement therein whioh is
false and which they have reasonable cause to believe
is false. The committee further recommends that
each corporation should be allowed to determine for it
self the classes of its stock and all the rights and liabilltes of stockholders among themselves, such as terms
of preference and voting power. Minority interests
are to be protected only by provisions requiring twothirds votes, in some few cases, such as a change in
the corporate purpose and business, or in the voting
power of classes of stock, or the sale, lease, or ex
change of the corporate property.
It is the expressed intention of the Committee that
foreign corporations shall be subject to the same re
strictions and have the same privileges as domestic
corporations, and none other.
Substantially the
amount of information required upon the organiza
tion of a domestic corporation is required by their
new draft law to be filed at the time of the admission
to the State of a foreign corporation. Directors, o f
ficers and stockholders of such corporations are to be
personally liable to the same extent and with the same
penalties as are those of domestic concerns. And a
franchise tax for foreign corporations is recommended
by the statement that it is the same in principle as
that upon domestic corporations. This tax is an ad
dition to the taxes at present levied by Massachusetts
upon foreign corporations.
It will be seen from this summary that the proposed
draft liberalizes the law, and will, if enacted, recog
nize in a very satisfactory manner the essentially pri
vate character of such enterprises as are affected by
it. On the other hand some marks of the old pater
nal theory still remain. The absurd and futile pro
vision that a foreign corporation may not issue its
securities against its ownership of the securities of a
Massachusetts public service corporation is apparently
to be retained in full force. And while some mate
rial improvements are recommended in the system of
taxation of domestic corporations, the peculiar Mas
sachusetts “ franchise" tax is to be retained and not
materially to be improved. Of this tax the Supreme
Court of the State itself has said that “ it is not laid
according to any rule of proportion whatever, but is
imposed without any reference to the amount to be
raised by taxation for public purposes or to the actual
property held by the corporation.” Yet proposed
legislation which involved radical changes in that tax
would probably fail of enactment. The fate of the
admirable, but too radical, revision of the Massachu
setts tax laws, prepared by a like commission in 1897,
is recent enough to have served as a warning.
On the other hand, the provisions for taxation are
so integral and important a part of any general cor
poration law that if they are not adapted to modern
conditions the law must fail of any broad or satis
factory utility; and it would seem that the effect of
the enactment of the proposed legislation would prob
ably be to limit incorporation under Massachusetts
charters to corporations whose stockholders and
management and the larger part of whose interests
are looated within that State. It will be an improve
ment on the present conditions if the law is satisfac
tory even to resident enterprises. But it would cer
tainly seem that it would be a further Improvement if
the law should make possible the association of Massa-

chuaetts capital under a Massachusetts charter with
capital from other States In the large enterprises
which are now so common. The reputation of the
State for fair dealing and justice and the efficiency of
its courts would probably attract such enterprises to
incorporate there, and the drift which has carried
away from that State in late years the management
and control of such enterprises is partly accounted
for by the unfitness of its corporation laws for such
purposes. Even after the enactment of all the pro
posed legislation, it will not be feasible for such an
organization as the United States Steel Corporation
to incorporate in Massachusetts. The committee
points this out with satisfaction, which is more clearly
apparent than their reason for it.
Elsewhere in their report, while expressing the
opinion that the question of trusts and monopolies is
not within their province, they have pointed out that
the evils of trusts affect neither the investor, who can
or should learn to take care of himself, nor the credi
tor, who has already learned to do so, but only the
consumer, who can be as much injured by an individ
ual or by a partnership as by a corporation. But the
Committee seems not to desire the incorporation in
Massachusetts of what we may, for the lack of a bet
ter word, term cosmopolitan corporations, and it would
seem that the proposed legislation will not make Mas
sachusetts's charters feasible for such concerns. At
the same time it will scarcely succeed in shutting
off all the means by which such foreign
corporations can do business in the State
without being subject to Its laws and restrictions.
Probably enterprise upon any moderately large scale
will combine to incorporate at least its holding com
pany outside of Massachusetts, even when part of the
business is to be done within that State. Later, it
may be that the increased utility of the new law to
the residents of the State, its probable satisfactory
working for local concerns, and the demonstration
through it of the soundness of the principles which
the Committee have so well stated, will convince
future legislatures that enterprise is not wicked
because it is large, and that it is desirable that both
residents and non-residents of Massachusetts ought
to be free to associate in a Massachusetts corporation
without other restrictions than those placed upon
Individual enterprise.
Meanwhile this Committee
have recommended as much as is likely to be accom
plished and have admirably stated the true con
ception of the relation of the State to corporate
enterprises.
The report of the Committee contains, as an appen
dix, a valuable document prepared by Mr. Frederic J.
Macleod of the Boston Bar. This is a comparative
digest of the corporation laws of all the States and
Territories. In form a clerical labor and appearing
at first sight to be merely a digest or Index, it provee
upon close inspection to be a condensed treatise on
the comparative facilities which the various States
offer to those taking out corporation charters under
their law. In clearness and suggestiveness of classifi
cation and In fulness of reference it is unsurpassed
as a compendium of the laws of the United States
upon this Important subjeot. The fact that this is
put forth under the supervision of Mr. Frederic J.
Stimson, the junior member of the Committee, and a
well known legal writer, gives it additional value
without detracting from the credit due to the
author.

GOLD AND SILVER PRODUCTION IN THE
WORLD FROM JAN. 1881 TO DEO. 1902.
The world's new gold supply, as our readers are
aware, has during 1902 taken on^a fresh growth. For
very nearly two years and a half (beginning with
October 1899 and continuing through 1900 and 1901)
a marked deoline in the product has been a 'notable
fact. With so material a setback in the outflow from
the mines, and with the volume and values of the
world's business previously adjusted to the much
larger and annually increasing outflow, it can be no
surprise that the loss in new supply made itself
felt in financial affairs. Of .course kthere were other
contributory happenings which helped the monetary
strain that followed. A notable event in the industrial
world seldom if ever finds its full explanation in a sin
gle influence. In this case the loss In the product was
also attended by increases in the demand. Indeed, the
United States, although it kept up and even increased
its product to a small extent— while the total of the
world's supply decreased—not only stopped giving
any portion of its product to Europe, but had begun
to draw upon Europe's otherwise depleted Inflow.
For the calendar years of 1898, 1899 and 1900 the
United States took of gold from the outside world
over 160^ million dollars net. We will not follow up
this idea further, for its remoter phases do not concern
our present inquiry.
It will, however, be of interest
to our readers in connection with the foregoing to
note the Bank of England's minimum rates of inter
est ; they will be found for eight consecutive years*
from 1893 to 1901, both years included ( C h b o n i c l k ,
February 15 1902, page 358), given at the close of
our annual review of the trade of Great Britain for
1901. Notice particularly the advance in the rate
beginning with October 1899, when the Rand mines
were shut down, to the close of December 1901.
GOLD PRODUCT OP TH B W ORLD
1881
TO
1903.
The occasion of the loss in the world's annual gold
supply, which we have referred to above, is well un
derstood. It was an Incident of the breaking out of the
war In South Africa In September 1899 and the closing
of the Rand and adjacent mines. Since that war termiuated the output of that center has again been on
the increase. It will be remembered that the re
sumption of the reports of the Transvaal Chamber of
Mines occurred In May 1901. The product, howover, for a considerable time continued to develop
very slowly; it had only reached 52,397 ounoes in
December 1901. But since 1902 opened the progress
has been more rapid. The total passed the 100,000ounce limit in March 1902 (being that month 104,128 ounces), and in December last had nearly reached
200,000 ounces, the amount reported by the Chamber
of Mines for December 1902 being 189,637 ounces.
As the output in August 1899 was 459,710 ounces,
It will be seen that there is large room for growth yet
before the output equals the maximum produced in
the best month previous to the war.
Reports from South Africa respecting future devel
opment are now, however, all favorable, except in
the matter of labor supply. According to Colonial
Secretary Chamberlain's opinion, expressed in his
address made at Johannesburg Saturday evening,
January 17, the future of the mining industry and of
the colony is highly promising. As to the question of
labor,he thinks the Kaffirs should be made to work,and
if they can be, it does not need to be said that the labor
238
THE CHRONICLE.
problem would be solved. Now they buy wives to
keep themselves in idleness. He calls that practice
the worst kind of slavery, and the world, we think,
will coincide with his view. The inference one must
draw from his remarks on this point is that the prac
tice must be stopped. He says that “ the black race
is increasing with great rapidity and unless it can be
settled in a regular industry it will prove a danger and
a difficulty/' Of course it is not the affair of a day
or of a year to wholly change this situation, which
has grown up with the ages in a race. But there are
always among a people some who have more con
science and more ambition than perhaps the majority
have, and if persistent effort is made to eradicate the
evil it will no doubt give way by degrees, and an
abundance of workers for all purposes be found.
“ In the meantime/' Mr. Chamberlain says, “ the
greater need is an increase of the white element;
what is wanted is more brains and less m uscle/’
He was “ opposed to any importation of labor until
all the resources for developing available labor had
been exhausted."
Evidently Mr. Chamberlain looks for speedy devel
opment in an industrial way, but his plans take in a
higher and a wider development as well. In those
directions we may place the suggestions he made for
“ the establishment of a university which would be
superior to anything in the world.” Reviewing, how
ever, the immediate outlook of the whole field of gold
mining as it exists in those colonies to-day— review
ing it in the light of recent experience— it does not
seem impossible to us that the largest total
of the Rand mines, if not reached, may be
quite nearly approximated within the current
year. Additional encouragement is lent to this
expectation by promises given out of new devel
opment, that is of new mining ventures in the Trans
vaal region. It is always very difficult to pick out the
quantum of truth such rumors from mining districts
contain and to know how many of them are based on
fact and how many on speculation and how much on an
over-sanguine temperament. Most judges expected a
greater and more rapid development in the Witwateistrand district of South Africa up to this date
than has been realized. The report for that centre
which we give to-day proves simply that more diffi
culties have been met to be overcome in opening mines
which have been idle for nearly two years than were
foreseen. We ourselves are having another lesson of
a like character taught us by the results in our coal
mines after they had been shut down for a few
months only. But South Africa is recovering its out
put in its other gold-producing districts more rap
idly; in those sections the highest annual total was
341,908 ounces in 1898, and in 1902 it had again
reached 300,000 ounces.
Besides South Africa, material, though of course
very much smaller, increases in the world’s new gold
supply may be looked for during the current twelve
months from the United States and Australasia.
At the same time it is well to remember that
even should South Africa get back to its maximum
product before the war, by the end of 1903, and all
other sources of production remain unchanged, the
output of the world’s gold mines would still begin
1904 on a basis of product 2,000,000 fine ounces
larger (of the value In sterling of about 8£ million
pounds, or nearly 42 million dollars,) than the pro
duct in 1902. This thought enables one to see that the
[V ol. LXXVI.
problem of the gold supply in the near future is one
of large possibilities. We are inclined to think, too,
that our supposition is not an improbable one. We
do not mean to say that we feel confident South
Africa will recover itself fully during the comiDg
twelve months; that is not our assumption. But take
all the other countries together, it appears likely that
there will be in them more than enough growth to
make up the lack there may turn out to be in Africa
of reaching its old monthly output.
There are, however, considerable uncertanties in
all mining anticipations. For instance, Canada’s pro
duction has come far short of all forecasts. The out
put seems to have settled down to a steady decline.
The maximum [was reached in 1900, when the total
product was 1,350,475 fine ounces, valued at $27,916,752. In 1901 the total value had declined to $24,462,222 and the ounces’ were 1,183,362; whereas in 1892
the product dropped further to 943,314 fine ounces
and to $19,500,000 value. No section ever has held
out a better promise, according to current reports,
than did the Klondike, and to find that the total
ounces had fallen last year below one million was
quite a disappointment. We notice that our territory
in the same region, Alaska, also made Its best year in
1900; and though it recovered in 1902 a considerable
portion of the decline in 1901, it is not yet quite up
to the 1900Atotal. Bat Alaska’s product is still small,
the output in 1902 being only 378,476 fine ounces.
We should add, however, that recent discoveries in
that territory on Seventy Mile Creek and elsewhere,
if they afford a tithe of what is now claimed for them,
will bring up the gold product of its mines much
nearer to a full realization of the earlier promises.
It is with no little surprise we find that the prelim
inary estimate of the gold product of the United
States made by Mr. George H. Roberts, Director of
the Mint, shows so small an increase for 1902 in
the year’s output. We by no means intend to reflect
on the accuracy of the estimate. It is no doubt cor
rect—that is as nearly so as preliminary figures issued
almost immediately after the close of the year can
be.
The corresponding estimate for 1901, made
twelve months ago, has proved, indeed, to be very
close to the actual result. Oar surprise arises from
the fact that there having b3en during the year so much
claimed for new finds, coming from so many districts,
we looked for a better showing in the aggregate.
An examination of the details of the Director's
figures explains the matter.
It seems that some
of the largest producing States have fallen off slightly
in their output, while quite a number of the smaller
ones have in a moderate way increased their product.
Thus, for instance, there is a small loss in Colorado
and Montana. The three States standing next to
Colorado all show growth. The 1902 result in Cali
fornia is particularly gratifying, in that its increase
though not large follows a small increase in several
preceding years; indeed, there has been no setback
since 1897, when the product had dropped to 707,160
ounces; now the preliminary report makes the ou t
put 828,419 ounces in 1902. We have above already
referred to Alaska, but we are informed that the Ter
ritory's future is brighter in promise than at any pre
vious period. Oil experts just returned tell very
large stories about the strikes of oil in Southern
Alaska. So, too, the estimates of coming gold pro
duction are beyond those of any previous period
The public, however, is getting used to large estl

mates and small results from that section of the coun
try, and prefers to wait for fuller developments be
fore indulging in any very extensive anticipations.
Altogether, however, the United States is showing
growth again after two years of extremely little varia
tion in the output.
We will add to the foregoing that from Russia we
have not as yet received any report of the year's gold
mining operations in that country for 1902. It will
be remembered that laBt year, April 12 1902, page
753, we gave a full account of the results as to
product for 1901, confirmatory of our earlier advices
in January. For other sources o f supply the details
are given below.

whole world we have brought together in the following

The cycle of greatest depression and also the cycles
of largest development are brought out dearly by
means of the foregoing summary. Using the figures
of dollar values, it is found that in 1851-55 the aver
age value of the gold product was $142,078,604; in
1881-85 it had contracted until the average was only
$101,571,919; from that point it expanded until in
1891-95 the average reached $162,523,833, and in
1896-1900 it reached the enormous average of $261,396,490. But as this last cycle closes the growth, as
already stated, has received a setback. Below we give
the latest seven years, year by year, to fill out the
comparison, and also to show the extent of the arrest
in the progressive development the output has now
suffered.

As to the comparative production of the various

U n it e d S t a t e s .— Notwithstanding less promising
results in Alaska than expected and a decrease in the
output of Colorado mines, the United States shows a
gain in gold yield for 1902 of 105,768 fine ounces.
The product of the country for 1902 was consequently
the greatest in its history and slightly more than
Africa’s record total of 1898. Nevertheless the United
States again relinquishes the leading position it as
sumed in 1900, Australasia having increased its out
put. Gold-mining in this country has shown less
eccentricities than in the other important producing
countries. With the exception o f 1901, when a slight
decrease was exhibited, progress] has been steadily
upward for a decade. On the other hand Australasia,
while developing its product quite rapidly from 1896
to 1899, suffered a considerable decline in 1900, and
for 1902 gives a total only 40,000 ounces greater
than in 1899 ; the United States during the same
interval added to its output about 475,000 ounces.
The preliminary estimate for 1902 kindly furnished
us by Mr. George B. Roberts, Director of the Mint,
places the production at approximately 3,911,268
ounces valued at $80,863,070, against 3,805,600
ounces valued at $78,666,700 in 1901, and 3,829,897
ounces valued at $79,171,000 in 1900. The ounces
and values as given for each State by the Director are
as follows, comparison being made with 1901 and 1900:

While, as intimated above, the aggregate result for
1902 exhibits a satisfactory increase over the previous
THE CHRONICLE.
240
year, some of the more important producing centreB
do not share in the better showing. According to the
preliminary figures for 1901 Colorado was expected to
give a small increase that year, but instead recorded
a moderate deorease, and the 1902 estimate points to
a still further, though slight, recession. California
did much better than anticipated in 1901, and the
final figures for 1902 should show continued progress.
Alaska’s output for 1902, although greater than
for 1901, fails to reach that of 1900. South Dakota
is coming to the front as a leading producer, its yield
haying almost doubled in the past ten years, and
being now not far behind that of Alaska. Nevada
also is steadily improving its position. Of the remain
ing States there is little to be said. Montana, Oregon
and Washington in 1902 decreased their output, and
Arizona, Utah and Idaho gave better results. The
Southern States returns furnish evidence of greater
attention to gold-mining, their total yield, though
small, having risen nearly 50 per cent in 1902.
A frica .— Returns from the Wltwatersrand District
of South Africa denote clearly how rapidly the mining
industry is recovering from the severe setback the
war entailed, and indicate that full production may
be fairly looked for in 1903. The year 1902 opened
with twenty-one mines being worked, the January
output reaching 70,341 fine ounces; it closed with
about fifty mines turning out ore, and a monthly pro
duction of 189,537 fine ounces. Even this latter total
does not compare favorably with the 459,710-ounce
output of August 1899, but it is greater, with but few
exceptions, than the result for any similar period
prior to November 1897. Few, if any, of the mines
now being worked have anywhere near their full
complement of men, or the outturn would be very much
greater. Furthermore, about thirty mines in the
Witwatersrand District alone have yet to resume. In
the territory contiguous to the Rand— Barberton,
Lydenburg, DeKaap and Klerksdorp— only two
mines out of thirteen made reports for October; but
recent progress has been so satisfactory that anticipa
tions of full resumption within 1903 seem not with
out warrant. The results by months in 1902 and 1901,
stated in fine ounoes (the basis on which reports are
now officially made), and the monthly figures for the
four years ended with 1899, as well as our estimate
for 1900, both stated in gross ounces, are appended.

* The Transvaal Chamber of Mines in 1901 and 1902 reported the
produet in fine ounoes; for all other years the figures in the above
table are gross ounees valued at about £3 10s. per ounce.
The mines in the districts immediately adjacent to
the Rand have not as yet fared as well as the Rand in
the matter of resuming operations. For December
their aggregate output was only 6,486 fine ounces,
compared with about 22,000 fine ounces monthly just
prior to the breaking out of hostilities. But in other
sections of Africa, notably Rhodesia, operations have
progressed quite satisfactorily. Returns to the Rho

of the district has been 194,268 ounces, as against 172,150 ounces in 1901 and 91,316 ounces in 1900. Com
bining all the fields outside the Rand we reach an
estimated production of about 307,286 fine ounces, or

The total yield of the African mines for the six
teen years that gold-mining has been prosecuted In
the country Is here seen to have been 23,929,589 fine
ounces, valued at £101,648,126.
A ustralasia .— The principal feature of the re
turns of gold production in Australasia in 1902 is the
further considerable advance in Westralia. That
province is not alone in giving an increased output,
but its share of the year’ s gain is particularly notice
able, following as it does a large addition in the pre
ceding year. The steady and rapid development of
the mining industry in Westralia is certainly one of
the most important incidents of the gold history of
recent years. Only ten years ago, out of a total Aus
tralasian product of 1,796,130 gross ounces, Westralia
contributed but 59,548 gross ounces, or less than 3$
per cent. Five years later, however, its output had
risen to 688,603 gross ounces, as compared with
2,924,214 gross ounces for the whole country, or
nearly 24 per cent, and in 1902 its share of an aggre
gate yield of 4,795,174 gross ounces was 2,177,441
gross ounces, or over 45 per cent.
Victoria ex
hibits a further moderate loss, its product for 1902
havlDg been 760,000 gross ounces, or 30,050 gross
ounces less than in 1901 and smaller than In ary year
since 1894. The New South Wales yield Increased
29,565 gross ounces during the year, but was less
than in 1894. Queensland recorded a considerable
increase In 1902, advancing to 940,000 gross ounces,
from 816,592 gross ounces In 1901, but even here the
total is slightly below either 1899 or 1900. New Zea
land exhibits an addition of 45,884 gross ounces, or
about 10 per cent, its 1902 yield beiDg 502,443 gross
ounces—the record total. The output of all the colo
nies In 1902 was4,795,174 gross ounces, against 4,330,241 gross ounces In 1901, Westralia furnishing 295,686 gross ounces of the increase and the remaining
divisions combined but 169,241 gross ounces. The
country has again assumed the leading position
among the world’s gold producers, and current and
prospective further development of the fields in
Westralia seems to assure Its retention for some little
time to come, barring unexpected discoveries in coun
tries now prominent in gold-mining.

In obtaining the fine ounces, 8 per cent has been
deducted for base metal in each year from 1894 to
1899, Inclusive, but for the years previous to 1894, as
well as for 1900, 1901 and 1902, the reduction is
somewhat greater, being based upon the reported
values for each colony as given in the official returns

1901, inclusive— the country's yield has never
risen above 1,391,260 fine ounces nor fallen below
922,226 fine ounces, ranging most of the time
between about 1,050,000 and 1,200,000 ounces. In
a recent cable message, Mr. John Rosens!, of Seattle,
Wash., American managing director of the North
western Siberia Co., states that the right to prospect
for gold and other minerals included in the trading
and development concessions to the Northwestern
Siberia Co. for the 200,000 square miles in Eastern
Siberia bordering on Bering Sea and the A rctic
Ocean, has been extended to Americans on the same
terms as to Russians. Bearing in mind the energy
displayed in developing the fields In California, Colo
rado and Alaska, much should be expected as a result
of the privilege this cable indicates has been exten
ded. In the absence of any definite information from
which to draw conclusions, we estimate the 1902
product about the same as that for 1901. The exhibit
for 11 years is as follows:

Ca n a d a .— A further decrease in the gold produc
tion in Canada In 1902 is indicated by the returns
now at hand, the year's yield having fallen to approxl
mately 943,314 fine ounces from 1,183,362 fine ounces
in 1901. The less favorable showing is primarily, if
not wholly, due to the poorer outturn from the Yukon
district.
This is rather disappointing, as develop*
ment in progress at the close of 1901 seemed to assure
an increased yield for 1902. But great difficulties
arising from severe winter weather must always inter
fere with progress in gold-mining in the Far North.
The open season— the period when washing can be
carried on— is so limited that when it is restricted it
seriously affects the volume of the outturn. In the
other fields droughty conditions are the main condi
tion to be contended with. The results for the whole
of Canada for the last ten years in fine ounces and
values are as follows. We are under obligation to Mr.
E. D. Ingall, Mining Engineer to the Geological Sur
vey of Canada, for the estimate for 1902.

R ussia .— We have received very little information
with reference to the progress of gold production in
Russia. We hear of new deposits being opened from
time to time, but future returns of output furnish no
evidence of industry in developing them. Manchuria
and Eastern Siberia are reputed to be the seat of
considerable deposits. If this be true, it would seem
that little effort is made to work them beyond a cer
tain limit, for of all the gold-producing countries
Russia shows the smallest variations from year to
year. During a period of thirty years— from 1872 to

I n d ia .— Although strictly speaking not an im
portant field, India has steadily but moderately in
creased its yearly contribution to the world's new
gold supply. Almost all the gold comes from half a
dozen mines Id the Colar field, and these generally
furnished better results in 1902 than in 1901. The
returns we have received make the aggregate pro
duction of the district 514,328 gross ounces, against
601,607 gross ounces in 1901 and 495,840 gross ounces
in 1900. The statement of yield presented in gross

Other Countries .—A number of the smaller pro
ducing countries have made noteworthy progress in
the mining of gold within the past two years. Mexico,
for instance, which a decade ago yielded but little
more than 50,000 ounces, now has an output of about
500,000 ounces. China has increased Its output three
fold within a few years. Korea has done even better,
and a number of the South American States are re
porting a better output. Under all the circumstances
we believe we are safe in concluding that “ other
countries” as a whole may be credited with a fair
increase in production in 1902.
Silv e r .— P roduction oe the W orld .— We have
found it, as usual, difficult so early in the year to ob
tain accurate information as to the progress in 1902
of the silver-mining industry. Suoh information as
we secured last year upon which to base an estimate
of the 1901 yield proved in the aggregate to be much
closer to actual results than usual, the revision now

necessary entailing a change of only three-quarters of
million ounces In a total of one hundred and seventyfive millions. Mr. Roberta’s (Director of the Mint)
estimate for the 1902 sliver output indicates a yield
of 68,666,084 ounces, or 3,362,084 ounces greater than
In 1901, and Mexloo is likely to increase its product
moderately.
From Australasia and “ all other
countries ” such returns as are at hand are very in
conclusive and do not seem to warrant any importaut
variations from the 1901 figures. But altogether and
as a result of the gains in the United States and
Mexico the world’s product is a little in excess
o f the volume in 1901 and in 1900, and consequently
makes a new record of yield. We give below a state
ment covering each year since 1890. See C hronicle
o f Feb. 11 1899, page 268, for figures back to 1871.

COTTON SU PPLY AND CONSUMPTION IJ,
EUROPE.
The cable brings us to-day all the results of inter
est contained in Mr. Ellison’s “ Annual Review of the
Cotton Trade for the Year 1902,” which was issued in
Liverpool on Wednesday of the current week. The
figures received cover not only the usual statistics of
supply and consumption for the calendar year 1902
and the first three months of the new crop season, but
also detailed estimates of imports, consumption, etc.,
for the full season ending Oct. 1 1903, and actual re
sults for earlier years. The actual figures of spinners’
takings, consumption and stocks in Great Britain and
on the Continent for 1902, in bales of 500 lbs., have
been as follows.

It will b8 observed from the foregoing that Mr.
Ellison makes the average weekly consumption of the
mills in Great Britain 62,769 bales of 500 lbs. each in
1902, or a loss of 866 bales per week from 1901, and a
decline of 4,654 bales per week from the 1899 aver
age. Continental consumption records a very satis
factory increase over 1901, but has been only 500
bales per week greater than in 1899. For the whole
of Europe, therefore, the 1902 average weekly rate,
and consequently the total consumption, shows an
excess over 1901 or 1900, but compared with either
1899 or 1898 a decrease is still apparent. Surplus
stocks at all European mills at the end of the year are
[V ol. LXXYI.
placed at 801,000 bales, or 259,000 bales more than
they stood at the opening, and almost double what
they were on October 1— the beginning of the new
season. This large increase in mills stocks in great
measure explains the deficiency, compared with last
year, in the visible supply, which has been a feature
of recent weeks. Furthermore, in no previous season
have the mills carried at the end of December as
heavy stocks as in 1902. The nearest approaoh to
the total now recorded was in 1898, when the aggre
gate was 668,000 bales.
Since the first of January European mills have
made further material additions to their stock of cot
ton. For the four weeks ended January 29 the fig
ures of the Liverpool Cotton Exchange indicate that
352.000 bales were forwarded to mills, whereas con
sumption (according to Mr. Ellison’ s estimate of
65.000 bales per week) has been 260,000 bales. Con
tinental imports for the same four weeks have reached
635.000 bales, of which 99,000 bales have gone to in
crease the visible supply at the ports, and consump
tion, as per Mr. Ellison’ s weekly estimate, has been
376.000 bales, leaving 160,000 bales as the increase in
Continental mill stocks. Altogether, therefore, at
the end of January all European mills hold stocks
fully 250,000 bales in excess of December 31 1902 and
about 325,000 bales greater than on January 31 1902.
The foregoing compilation presents the results for
1902 only; to bring out clearly the relation the 1902
figures bear to those for previous years, we have pre
pared the following, which covers the period from
1895 to 1902, both years included.

The information now at hand tends to confirm the
reports made public from time to time that the mills
in Great Britain worked upon very small margins of
profit in 1902. In fact, it would appear that the
aggregate profit of the mills reporting in 1902 was muoh
smaller than in any recent year, and that only six
years out of the nineteen included in our compilation
made a less favorable showing. Oar cable states that
90 companies in the Oldham district report an aggre
gate profit of £24,727 in 1902, or an average of only
£275 per mill, against £3,674 per mill in 1901, £3,415
per mill in 1900 and £4,406 in 1899. The showing
made by the Oldham mills ^slnce 1883 has been as
follows.

made up are constantly being received by the officials in
charge. Mr. Dable, the Manager, requests [us to announce
that the figures given out for publication, daily, weekly,
monthly and annually, represent only the aggregate o f the
city items actually brought by the banks to the Clearing
House and that they have been so made up for more than
twenty years. The amount taken from the Clearing House
is not considered.
—The proposed entry o f a new institution into the trust
company field in this city was announced yesterday. Nearly
every large bank of the ^metropolis is represented on the
board of this latest organization, the Bankers’ Trust Com
pany. The obj act is to secure a share of the business which has
recently passed from the banks to the trust companies. The
new institution is to be capitalized at §1,000,000 and to have
a surplus of $500,000. None o f the stock is to be offered to
the public, it having been all taken by those directly inter
ested. Possession of the old quarters o f the Liberty National
Bank at 143 Liberty St. has been obtained and w ill be
immediately remodeled. Mr. Edmund C, Converse, who will
still retain his position as President o f the Liberty National
has been chosen as the head of the new trust company, and
Mr. J. F. Thompson has relinquished the cashiership o f the
Seaboard Natioual to become Vice-President o f the new con
cern, of which he w ill be the active manager.
Mr. Thompson is well and favorably known by bankers
from one end of the country to the other. He has been a
banker practically all his life. Previous to his appointment
as Chief Clerk in the Seaboard National in 1884, he had six
years’ banking experience in Western New Y ork and Penn
sylvania, at one time being Cashier. His rise in the Seaboard
was very rapid; in 1887 he was appointed Assistant Cashier,
and in 1891 was advanced to the cashiership, making in all
nineteen years’ connection with this very progressive institu
tion.
The strength o f jthe board o f directors o f the Bankers’
Trust Company is displayed in the follow in g list o f mem
bers : James G. Cannon, Vice-President o f the Fourth Na
tional Bank; Edmund C. Converse; James A. Blair, o f
Messrs. Blair & Co ; Henry P. Davison, Vice-President o f
the First National Bank; ^Granville W . Garth, President of
the Mechanics’ National Bank; A. B. Hepburn, Vice-Presi
dent of the Chase National Bank; W illiam Logan, Cashier of
the Hanover National Bank; Gates W . McGarrah, President
o f the Leather Manufacturers’ National Bank; W illiam H.
Porter, Vice-President of the Chemical National Bank;
George W . Perkins, of J. P. Morgan & Co.; J. F. Thompson;
A lbert H. W iggin, Vice-President of the National Park
Bank; Samuel W oolverton, President o f the Gallatin Na

structures. The earliest banking place on record proves to
be the bank of Captain Kidd, “ a typical American banking
institution o f the year 1695.” The first bank in Am erica was
the Bank o f North America in Philadelphia, founded in
1781. The Bank of New York was founded in 1784, the Bank
of the Manhattan Company in 1799. Cuts are also given of
the National Newark Banking Co. o f Newark, N. J ., estab
lished in 1804, and the Massachusetts National Bank, the
latter founded in the same year as the Bank of New York,
namely 1784. The modern bank buildings shown commence

the Knickerbocker Trust Company at Fifth Avenue and 34th
Street. Then follow views o f the new buildings o f the

The Money M arket and F in a n cia l S itu a tion .— The stock
m arket has been extrem ely dull, w ith the volum e o f busi
ness very small. For the whole w eek the sales on the Ex
change have aggregated only a little more than tw o million
shares (2,119,028), and on W ednesday the dealings reached
only 290,002 shares, the smallest day’s business (barring
Saturday half-h lidays) for some tim e past. W h ile some
weakness developed this afternoon, the upward m ovem ent
w hich has been in progress in special stocks would seem to
indicate that confidence is still w ell m aintained and that
the undertone remains strong.
St. Louis & San Francisco shares have had a sharp rise
during the week. The Erie shares have also been actively
dealt in at higher prices. In this last instance there are
still rumors o f possible buying for control. It may be, how
ever, that the com pany’s im proving earnings furnish the
basis o f the strength o f the shares. During Decem ber the
com pany added no less than $762,701 to its gross earnings
and $618,320 to its net earnings. The Erie, too, is the only
anthracite com pany which is able to show an increase in
net for the six months to D ecem ber 31, the im provem ent
for that period being $430,290.
The open m arket rates for call loans on the Stock Exohange
during the w eek on stock and bond collaterals have ranged
from 3 to 4 per cent. To-day’s rates on call were 2% to 3%
p ercen t. Prim e com m ercial paper quoted a t4 % @ 5 per cent.
The Bank o f England weekly statem ent on Thursday
showed an increase in bullion o f £871,012, and the percen t
age o f reserve to liabilities was 47‘38 against 46*05 last week,
the discount rate rem aining unchanged at 4 per cen t.
The
Bank of France shows an increase o f 3,000,000 francs in gold
and 2,150,000 francs in silver.

T. F . Dunaway, Vice President and General Manager, says:
D uring the year 8 1* m iles o f 40-pound steel w ere laid betw een D oyle
and Am edee stations, at a co st of $17,513, releasing the same am ount
o f 30 lb iron rail, valued at $ ,600. O wing to the increase in business
w hich will be received at Plumas Junction, Cal., due to the com pletion
o f the 8ierra T alleys R y.'into the tim ber belt o f Plumas O »unty, C*i . an
order has been placed fo r tw o locom otives, to be delivered during
M arch. 1903, and arrangem ents have been perfected to build 25
additional freight cars.
The extension from Term o to Madeline, Cal., (the present term inus)
a distance of 14 miles, was com pleted and opened for business on
A pril 1. 1902. The total coat to Jane 30, 1902, was $78,173. The
present terminus is n ot on ly nearer b y 14 miles to the p rodu cing
section o f C alifornia and Southern Oregon, b a t the ooutour o f the
country makes it m ore accessible. A large increase in the tonnage
can be expeoted, and esp d a l l y so with live stock, becauae o f the
natural advantages at M adeline and the superior facilities given it as
a shipping point.

C h a n ges.—T h e plans for the enlargement of the terminal fa
cilities in this city and the consideration to the city were
substantially agreed upon on Jan. 20 by a committee of
the Board of Estimate and representatives of the company.
Both plans and terms were practically the same as proposed
at a recent meeting of the Board of Estimate. (Vol. 76, p.
48; V. 75, p. 290, 240; V. 74, p. 776, 151.)
It was decided that the city should bear part of the risks
o f damage suits in consideration of the company agreeing to
carry its road under St. Mary’s Park, in The Bronx, by
means of a tunnel, and to surrender the old roadway to the
park. This plan will do away with about half a dozen grade
crossings. The agreement provides ;
4 p . c. f-O-year gold bonds was created for the follow ing purposes
(1) To provide for the redemption of the present issue of $400,000 of
5 p o. bonds, which are redeemable at any time on three weeks notice
at 105 and accrued interest; ( 2 ) to provide for the funding o f the pre
sent floating indebtedness ; (3) to provide lor extensive improvements
and additions to the property.
The railway from Llaneroh to Ardmore was built by a separate c o r
poration, v iz : The Ardmore & Llaneroh Street Ry. Co. This property
has no bonds on it. and the funds for construction were provided from
the sale of the stock of the Ardmore & Llaneroh Street Ry. Co.,
said stook representing only the aotual cash oost of the road and
equipment. This property is leased by the Philadelphia & West Chester
Traction Co., the rental paid being equal to 5 p. o. on tbeoapltal stook,
plus taxes and cost of maintaining separate organizations.
During the past two years the Philadelphia <fc West Chester Traction
Co. has made very extensive additions ana betterments to its property,
consisting o f buildings, m achinery, oars, real estate and other items,
and it was iu this oonneotlon that the outstanding Indebtedness o f the

Since the original application o f Deo. 12, 1899, to list these bonds,
(see V. 68, p. 7 7 3 , 824,1025) all the constituent companies o f the New
York Gas & Elcotrlo Light, Heat & Power Co. were duly merged Into
that company, but prior to suoh merger a direct m ortgage was given
by each of said constituent com panies on the real and personal prop
erty of each to the State Trust Go., as trustee, for the purpose of
additionally securing the bonds of this Issue Also at the time o f the
consolidation o f the New York Gas, Electric Light, Heat Se Power Oo.
with the Edison Eleotrlo Illuminating Co. o f N. Y,(M ay 2d, 1901,) the
New Y ork Edison Co., as successor, gave to the Central Trust Oo.,
trustee, a dlreot mortgage, dated May 22. 1901, whereby the purohase
money mortgage o f the New Y ork Gas, Eleotrlo Light, Heat & Power
Co was made a direct mortgage on all the property of the Edison
Electric Illuminating Co of New York, and the stook of the Illum inat
ing Oo. was oanoeled. Thereafter, the New York Edison Co., for the
purpose of additionally securing the bonds of the Issue now listed,
gave a dlreot mortgage to the Morton Trust Co., trustee, form erly the
State Trust Co , dated Deo. 16,1902, on all the property of what was
form erly the Edison Eleotrlo Illuminating Co., such mortgage being
subject only to the lien o f the purchase m >ney m ortgage and dlreot
mortgage o f May 2 2 ,190 1, and the underlying mortgages o f the
Illumluattng Company, amounting to the sum of $8 50o,000. In said

During the past 18 months the com pany has invested very large
sum sof money in the oonstruotion and equipment of les shipbuilding

have a property whloh is not surpassed in the United States. The
oapital required has largely exoeeded the amount which it was possi
ble to obtain by the sale of capital stook, aud during the flsoal year
ending on Dec. 13. 1902, the com pany contracted a float'ng d bt to an
amount exceeding $*00,000. In order to retire the floating debt,
oomplete rhe plant and furnish working oapital, the stockholders re
cently authorized the issue of $l,250,0J0 first mortgage bonds. These
bonds have been subscribed for and rhe proceeds will be aopiied to the
purposes anove mentioned. Oolnoldently with the seourl ig o f this
new oapital. in December last, seven new members were elected to tbe
board of direotors.
While the directors w ere reluctant to interrupt a reoord o f dividend

a distribution o f profits at the present time. Tue directors believe
that the affairs o f the oompany are in a pr sperous and satisfactory
condition; that the new oapital reoently obtained is ample; that there
is an abundanoe of work on hand, and that at no time have the condi
