the week covered by the
above statement will be given next Saturday. We cannot,
of course, furnish them to-day, bank clearings being made
up by the various clearing houses at noon on Saturday, and
hence in the above the last twenty-four hours of the week
have to be in all cases estimated,as we go to press Friday night.
We present below our usual detailed figures for the previous week, covering the returns for the period ending with
Saturday noon, October 13, and the results for the corresponding week in 1899, 1898 and 1897 are also given. In
comparison with the preceding week there is a decrease
in the aggregate exchanges of ninety million dollars,
the loss at New York being sixty- three millions. Contrasted
with the week of 1899 the total for the
whole country shows a decline of 12*7 per cent. Compared with the week of 1898 the current returns record
an increase of 15*8 per cent, and the excess over 1897 is 20*2
per cent. Outside of New York the increase over 1899 is 0'9
per cent. The excess over 1898 reaches 19*8 per cent, and
making comparison with 1897 the gain is seen to be 26*5 p. c.

THE BRYAN DEMONSTRATION.
We
have often wondered why it is that political experts persist in arguing that because large crowds
have gathered to witness a well-advertised political demonstration, therefore it follows that the people have the
cause of that demonstration near their hearts. There
is more than one variety of the so-called "mass-meeting."
We suppose,

kind of gatherings with which most of us have been

sort of function would really, we should say, prove

the people were not eager to make a show of such
devotion, they certainly would not endure the inconvenience of attending, and the orators would talk to
empty benches.
But we greatly doubt

ultimatum. As a result, the hall was crowded to its
utmost limits. Yet nobody seriously believes that
this meant overwhelming animosity to England in
New York. If President Krttger had appeared in
person, no hall in New York could have contained the
audience ; and if Mr. Chamberlain had undertaken
subsequently to come over and address an "antiBoer demonstration * we have not the slightest doubt
that his meeting too would have been filled to overMoreover, we are sure that very much the

same audience would have attended both.
The moral which we wish to draw from this, and
which we presume most thinking people draw, is that
the enormous gatherings at last Tuesday's Bryan
demonstrations merely proved, to use a theatre
manager's expression, that Mr. Bryan is a first-class
attraction. It seems, in fact, hardly to have occurred
to anybody that the crowd which gathered in the
Madison Square Garden to hear the same candidate
in August 1896, on the eve of New York's overwhelming vote against him, was at least as large as
last Tuesday's, and by some accounts considerably

the rule applies in any
degree to a meeting in a great city, shrewdly announced and advertised beforehand, and provided
liberally with inducements in the shape of speakers
if
whose names the newspapers have for months made
household words. As a theme of interest, discussion
and entertainment, an occasion of this sort outstrips
any performance at the theatres, and has the added
and not inconsiderable advantage of charging no admission.
To take a single instance, unconnected with
politics: Exactly a year ago, a mass meeting to declare
sympathy with the Boers was announced in Carnegie
Hall.
Several well-known and popular orators were
on the list of speakers; the date of the meeting hap-

kept their places throughout Mr. Bryan's speech,
whereas the audience of 1896 stampeded before the
speech was fairly under way. It is also true that
enthusiasm was shown in the crowds this year,
Bat the exas it certainly was not four years ago.
planation of all this is simple enough. The speaker
endeavored in 1896 to address his audience with a
serious financial argument, and that very quickly
turned out not to be what they had expected. They
had been promised an orator who should hypnotize
them, and they found a rather dull economic essayist.
This year most of the audience heard what they came
to hear a fire-brand orator with a gift of facile eloquence and a reckless freedom in handling a score of
controverted questions. They did not feel that they
had been cheated as they were by the solemn deliverance of 1896, and they expressed their appreciation
as they would have expressed it at a theatrical show
which amused and entertained them.
We are aware that this view of the case ignores the
value to a candidate of a large audience, whereby he
can get a hearing for his views. But Bryan, of all
men, had no need to gather an audience for this
purpose. Not one of his opinions was new, and every
one of the topics which he discussed last Tuesday had
been threshed out months ago by more competent
hands than his. If a voter had not been convinced
of the evils of the so-called "Imperialism" by a
writer and speaker of such mark as Mr. Schurz, we
hardly imagine he would be converted by Mr.
Bryan.
Furthermore, it is certainly our opinion that most of the wild assertions put forth by
the orator last Tuesday
evening missed their
purpose, for the very reason that they were uttered
in a large and mixed gathering.

That the candidate is perfectly capable of abandoning
the whole Philippine discussion, if he were to discover
a dislike to it on the part of his audiences, is proved
incontestably by his present refusal to say a word on
the currency question, though he declared in 1896
that his public advocacy of free silver coinage would

THE HOOKING VALLEY REPORT.
The Hocking Valley Railway Company is one of the
properties reorgauiz d by the firm of J. P. Morgan & Co.
The property is not a large one either as regards mileage
or capitalization, but we cannot recall another case
j
where such immediate and striking success has attended
the work of reorganization as in this instance. While on
the one hand fixed charges were cut down about onethird (say from about $1,200,000 per annum to $800,000), earnings on the other hand have been enlarged in
a very noteworthy way.
The report covers only the
results for the late year, but President Monsarrat points
out that the earnings were largely in excess of those of
any previous period in the history of the property. He
gives, moreover, a statement to
show that the gain
in
the gross earnings as compared with the year preceding was $1,543,232 and the gain in the net $861,545.
This is a remarkable improvement for a single period
of twelve months, being in the one case considerably

The Swedish bonds, which are being placed in this
country by the National Park Bank of New York, have been
advanced in price from 97%, at which the first lot was
negotiated, to 9834, and there appears to be a growing demand for them. The inquiries are largely from banks, trust
companies and brokers in this city, and it is regarded as
probable that these purchases are for re-sale to correspondents in the interior.

The Alliance Bank is a comparatively new institution, having had an existence of about seven years. Its capital at

London, Saturday, October 6, 1900.
Of the two most important political events which have for
a long time past weighed upon the Stock Exchange, one has

the second still remains to be seen. I refer of course to our
own elections to the Imperial Parliament now in progress
and to the Presidential election on your side about to commence. Some two- thirds of the total members of our House
of Commons have already been elected, and so far as we are
able to judge the Government majority will be even greater
than it was at the last general election in 1895. This in itself
would be no matter for congratulation, for the Government
majority was already unduly large, were it not for the fact
that the issue has been fought upon Imperialist as opposed to
Whatever may be thought of the wislittle England linf s.
dom or otherwise of contesting the question at the present
time and forcing on the so-called Khaki election, it is certainly of the utmost importance that the question having
been put to the electorate in the form in which it was that
the country should reply with unmistakable unanimity for
the maintenance of the Empire and the defence of its interests wherever they may be assailed.
Home questions have been wholly ignored in thi3 election.
Many voters who would not on such occasions support a
Unionist Cabinet have vo*ed solidly for the incorporation of the
two recently-conquered States within the pale of the Empire.
This great Imperialist question being, as we hoped, settled
once and for all, the public is turning its attention to the deOn your side interest will no doubt be
tails of the contest.
taken, as indeed it is with ourselves, in the success of Mr.
Winston Spencer Churchill, son of the late Lord Randolph
and of Mrs. George Cornwallis West. Mr. Churchill made
a very pTucky tight, and so narrow was his majority that at
one time it was feared he had been defeated. Another hardfought cons ituency in which, however, the Unionist candidate has been defeated by a sma'l majority, was that of
West Southwark, where Sir Alfred Newton, Lord Mayor of
London, contested the seat in Government interest.
Sir
Alfred settled in the borough about 20 years ago as a yeast
merchant, but his opponent, Mr. Causton, is a large employer of labor in the district, is very popular, and was a
strong local candidate.
One incident doubtless attracted
support and certainly sympathy to the Lord Mayor's candidature, and that was the brutal assault upon his son, Mr.
Harry Newton, a young fellow of 24, an Oxford man and
a barrister, who recently served with the City Imperial Volunteers.
Mr. Newton was attending one of his father's
meetings in the borough and the rough element at the back
of the room attempted to create a disturbance.
Mr.
Newton is a tall, athletic young man, and when the
officials
found difficulty in removing the obstructionists
he went to their assistance, with the result that
he got a bad gash right across the right side of his
face and had hi3 nose badly broken. It is hoped, however, owing to his youth that he will recover wi'houtsustaming any permanent ill-effects. This kind of thiog, however, attracted, as said, sympathy to the Lord Mayor and
certainly would have received no countenance from any serious people amongst his opponents. Such attacks are due
purely to the rough element, who regard the general elec ion
as a favorable opportunity for creating a row whenever
possible.
The result of our election so far has
had a most favorable
upon stock markets,
prices being generally well
maintained, although until it is absolutely concluded business is naturally very quiet. So far as your elections are
concerned it would be of course matter of no concern for
non- American citizens were it not for the fact that Mr.
Bryan's viewj upon financial and economic questions are so
totally at variance with those of any Constitutional country
that there would b?, were it thought at all likely that he
might succeed, as great alarm amongst American investors in
Europe as there is on your side, on the possibility of his success.
influence
The European money markets have passed with rema kable
ease through the trying period always more or less associated
with the end of September. The Bank of England retains
its official ra'e of discount at 4 per cent, and there has been
a considf-rable reduction in the Bank reserve, which, however, still amounts to almost %-l% millions. The market has
of course to borrow largely from the Bank; bnt it has been
materially assisted by the immense expendi ure on the part
of the Government in connection with the war and also in
purchases of Government stores. Little apprehension has
been f«-lt as to the monetary outlook here in L >ndon and in
Paris; but very considerable a' arm has been experienced as
to what might have happened in Berlin. Fortunately Berlin, if possible, has passed through the trying period with
.
greater pa s* ev ntban ourselves. Inordertodothistbelmperial
Banb of GK-rmauy. ia addition to its authorized note circulation, has put out notes to the value of 143^ millions, of
whir h of course it was at no expenditure save the price of
print'Dg ih^ ntes and an additional 5 per cent tax paid to
the Imperial Government
In tbe event of such a crisis here
it would be Dt cessary to suspend the Bank Charter Act and
afterwards the Minister, who wou'd of course be the Chancellor of rbe Exchequer of the day, would have to appeal to
Parliament for a bill of indemnity. Surely it would appear
that tbe
rman system is the simpler of tbe two.
Th-> India Council continues to be remarkably successful
in tbe di poeal of its drafts. For the 20 lacs offered on
Wednesd y the market applied for 430 lacs at price3 ranging
from is. 3 29-32d. to Is. 3 31 32d. per rupee. Ttnders at the
lower fignTe r-ceived about 4 per cent Next week 25 lacs
will be offered by ihe Council. The total sales for the financial
year so far—tbat is from April 1 up to Tuesday night lastam- unted to 4 l4 millions sterling, which is about half what
the C uncil had realized at this date 12 months ago. The
position, however, is not quite what it would appear from
wha Ihavesiid because over and above tbJU 4^ millions sterling the Indian Government has issued two distinct loans, one
rutee li an in Ii dia and the other a sterling loan on this
side, and t« gether they give it a balance in hand which is
more than sufficient to meet what are called the home
charges.
Tbe outlook in India has distinctly improved. Over immense areas the late drought has been succeeded by torrential rain, causing in many districts seriou8 distress and
floods; but at the same time for the country taken as a
whole it has proved a great Massing. The jute crop seems
to be as ur-d aBd to be an abundant one; and I need not add
that the demand for jate at present is enormous and the
price paid for it is very much higher than it has been in
recent yeaTe.
Now that your market is becoming not only one of the
great intunatioi al money markets of the world but is going
to have what Loudon has loDg had, a large surplus of capital
seeking profitable employment, the attention of American

The Orauge River
Colony and toe Vaal River Colony have now ceased to be

the Briti-h Empire, and will in due course be adnrmstered
like other colonial possessions appertaining to the British
Crown. The itflueoce of this political change upon the
economic prosreriry of these two countries it is difficult to
exaggerate. Every effort wilt be maie to attract white settlers and British and other capital for developing the resources of the cuntry; while the Government, instead of
enricting its members, will do its utmost to push forward
the generai pro per ity of the two new possessions.

President Tut' le says, in substance:
General Results.— Compared with the preceding year there
was an increase in gross receipts of $2,270,147; of this amount
$200,000 was due to an increase in mileage. Of the increase
in operating expenses ($1,856,373), about $15 'i, 000 was due to
additions to the road's mileage; about $4.i 0,000 to a general advance in the price of locomotive fuel and to the larger qnan
tity required; about $20f>,000 to necessary advancements and
adjustments of wages; about £600,000 to additional train
mileage and station service incident to the larger volume of
business transacted, and the remaining $500,000 in p*rt to
the generally increased cost of materials and supplies, but
more largely to greater expenditures for new equipment and
for improvements. The larger amounts of the latter included
in the year's operating expenses was

from rral estate sold to the Dayton Union Depo Co. The
transfer to the last-named company (of which the C. H & D.

(Report for the year ended June 30, 1900. J
President M. D. Woodford says in part:
General Remarks.— The figures for the late fiscal year show
an increase of gross earnings of $194,027, or 9-43 per cent,
and an increase of net earnings of $146,751, or 928 per cent.
The number of passengers carried one mile increased 4-25 per
cent and the earnings therefrom increased 5-55 per cent. The
number of tons of freight carried one mile increased 14 11
per cent; the earnings therefrom 12*44 per cent. It was expected that the generally improved freight rates prevailing
during the year would produce an increase in the tonnage
rate, but the large additions to the low-class tonnage neutralized the increased rates obtained. The train- load of revenue-earning freight continues to show a steady increase,

year amounted to $157,000, the actual gross from ordinary
In comparison with the year
traffic exceeds 1899 by $91,784.
lb9? passenger- train mileage ha3 increased 30 per cent, including the new express-train service to Brooklyn Bridge,
while the increase in passenger earnings has been 14 per
cent; in express earnings 24 per cent. An increase of 11 per
cent in freight earnings for the same period has been obtained with less freight-train mileage.
The increased cost of material and supplies has affected
operating expenses adversely, and no new work has been undertaken on tnat account. The work of eliminating grade
crossings has baen vigorous^ prosecuted and is limited only
by the funds available from the State under direction of the
Railroad Commissioners.
The Prospect Park & Coney Island RR. report is not included in this report, as the road wa3 leased Jane 17, 1899, to

COST OF PROPERTY.
In payment for the property above mentioned the Railway Company issued its entire capital stock amounting to
$12,500,000 of Preferred Stock and $17,500,000 of Common
Stock, together with $22,500,000 of its First General Mortgage
Bonds, and it has since received from Messrs. Maitland, "oppell & Company, Brown Brothers & Company and Edward
Sweet & Company. Reorganization Managers, $78>,28l 87 in
cash, Preferre Stock of the par value of $1,220,770 49, and
Common Stock of the par value of $2,439,337 45, which
cash and securities a r e available for improvement of the
property or for any of the purposes of the Company.
The main line, branches, terminals, equipment and lands
have now been united under a single ownership.
A statement of mileage owned and operated will be
found on page 17 of pamphlet report.
A statement of lands owned will be found on page 30 of
pamphlet report.
The Company entered into possession of the railroad and
appurtenances, and the lands, at midnight of the 17th of
July, 1899, but under agreement with the Receivers, who
surrendered possession at that time, and by authority of the
Court, the Company took the assets and assumed the liabilities of the Receivers as of midnight on June 30th, 1899.
This report, therefore covers the period from July 1st, 1899,
to June 30th. 1900, inclusive. The difference between the
assets and liabilities of the Receivers, the assets being the
greater, was cr-dited to the cost of road and all claims aci.
i
this surplus there has been appropriated by the
Board of Directors toward the payment of the cost of
improvements

$12,168 20
By reference to the Balance Sheet it will be seen that
aside from the current vouchers and pay rolls the only indebtedness of the Company was its bonded indebtedness.
There was no floating debt.
The tables on page 30 in the pamphlet report give the
transactions of the Land Department for the year. From
these it appears that the total quantity of Jand sold
amounted to 32,76« 92-100 acres for
$170,470 82

Comparison of earnings and expenses of the fiscal yea r
ending June 30, 1900, with earnings and expenses of the Re"
ceivers in the previous fiscal year will be found in the tables
accompanying this [pamphlet] report.
The increase in earnings shown was due to the general
improvement in business and to unusually large shipments
of iron ore.
The increase in expenses was due to increased business,
more work done in toe Maintenance of Way and Equipment
Departmsnts, increase in the prices of material and labor
and the disturbance due to changing the Chicago terminal
and the engine terminals between Chicago and St. Paul.

not all replaced, but its value as charged on the Company's
books, which was its estimated value on the 30th day of
June, 1899, has been charged to repairs and credited to

IMPROVEMENTS.
The amounts charged to Improvement Account for the
year, as shown on page 804, aggregate $625,252 38.
This does not include improvements charged to Operating Expenses, such as increased weight of rails, permanent
bridges replacing wooden structures, filling ot bridges and
trestles, etc.
The expenditure for Passing and Station Tracks, $47,was made necessary by the larger volume of business,

charges to the Fond du Lac shops up to the end of the fiscal
year, as elsewhere referred to.

there was still some work to be done in this line, but at this
writing it is practically completed.
The charge of $16,911 09 to Enlarging Coal Docks at Ashland and Manitowoc is the charge to this account up to the
end of the fiscal year. The balance to be expended after
that date was about $14,000.
New Water Stations, $4,301 03, covers a charge to that
account during the fiscal year made necessary by the
change in engine divisions.
There were miscellaneous charges of $3,431 53, less miscellaneous credits of $012 15, to complete the account.

INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT.
The establishment of new industries, the enlargement of
old ones and the general settlement of the territory adjacent to the Company's lines has been entirely satisfactory
during the past year. The development has been particu
larly marked between Abbotsford and Ashland, where the
ComDany's land grant lies.
TERMINALS, ETC
When the Wisconsin Central Railway Company commenced the operation of its railway it had a temporary arrangement for freight and passenger terminals in
Chicago with the Chicago Terminal Transfer Railroad Company. It had a short-time arrangement for freight and passenger terminals in Milwaukee, and the use of tie track
from Rugby Junction to Milwaukee with the Chicago Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway Company. It bad a short-time
arrangement with the Great Northern Railway Company
for the use of that Company's line between St. Paul and
Minneapolis, for the use of the Union Passenger Station at
St. Paul and the Union Passenger Station at Minneapolis. It
had a temporary arrangement with the Northern Paci^c
Railroad Company whereby that Company handled its freight
business at Minneapolis
Negotiations had been in progress for some time between
the receivers, on behalf of the Reorganization Committee,
and the Chicago Terminal Transfer Railroad Company, for
the use by the new Company of the Chicago Terminals of
In the interest of economy it was decided to remove the
locomotive shops which are now located at Waukesha,
Wisconsin, and the car shops which are now located at
Stevens Point, Wisconsin, to a central location, consolidatThe location chosen is two miles north

of'the City of Fond du Lac, Wisconsin. The shop buildings
are well under way and it is expected that they will be completed and the shops put in operation before the end of the
calendar year. The capacity of the plant will be twentyfive per cent greater than the two plants now in operation,
and the buildings are being constructed so that enlargement
can be economically ma'e as may become necessary.
Intermediate terminal yards were formerly located at
Wnukesha, South Oshkosh, Stevens Point, Abbotsford and
Irvine. It was arranged to abandon the yards at Waukesha,
South Oshkosh, Stevens Point and Irvine, to enlarge the
yard at Abbotsford and to establish a new yard adjacent to
the shop location north of Fond du Lac. Th^se changes
have been made and the new arrangement, while causing
more or less disturbance to the service for a time, is now
working successfully.
The estimated saving by the shop and yard changes is
$125,000 per annum. This saving however, cannot be realized until the changes are fully completed and everything
working smoothly on the new plan. Until then, necessarily,
the expense of operation is increased.
The change of the Chicago terminal involves also an increase in expense until the permanent facilities are ready for
use, which will be some time after the first of the coming
year.

THE DISTILLING COMPANY OF AMERICA.
REPORT OF THE PRESIDENT— FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING JUNE
Jersey City, N.
J.,
October
17, 1900.
Company was organized with an authorized
capital
of $55,000,000 preferred stock and $70,000,000 common stock.
The present Board of Directors, Officers and Executive
Committee were elected on August 30th. 1899.
The Board of Directors on February 19th, 1900, subject to
proper action anl approval to be had by the stockholders,
resolved that $20,000,000 of the unissued preferred stock and
$20,000,000 of the unissued common stock should be can-
This
celed.
The Company has alreadv acquired
(a) 324,634 shares of stock of American Spirits Manufacturing Co., the total issue of which is 350,000 shares
:
;
shares of stock of Spirits Distributing Co., first
and second preferred, the total issue of which is 28.V50 shares;
the total common stock of that Company, 36,750 shares, belongs to the Standard Distilling & Distributing Co.;
(c) 226,269 shares of stock of Standard Distilling & Distributing Co., the total issue of which is 240,000 shares
(d) 26-<,O0O shares of stock of Kentucky Distilleries &
Warehouse Co the total issue of which is 290,000 shares and
(e) 9,990 shares of stock of Hannis Distilling Company, of
Philadelphia, and Baltimore, Maryland, the total issue of
(6) 25,<>55
;
.
;
which is 10,000 shares.
The total issued stock of The Distilling Company of America is 462,520 common shares and 312,500 preferred shares,
or a total of 775,020 shares. There remains unissued in the
Treasury 237,480 common and 237,500 preferred shares, or a
total of 474,980 shares. There is held of the above issued
stock in trust by the Central Trust Co. of New York, a proportionate amount of each class of stock, with which to purchase, if deemed desirable, the amount of the Constituent
Companies' stock not yet acquired.
The business of the Companies is the manufacture of
spirits and alcohol, Kentucky, known as Bourbon, whiskey,
and Rye whiskey, and their blending, compounding and
distribution.
The spirits and alcohol business is conducted by the
(a) American Spirits Manufacturing Co., organized Aug.
22, 1895.

The Kentucky or Bourbon whiskey business is conducted
by the
(d) Kentucky Distilleries & Warehouse Co., organized
Feb. 3, 1899, and
The Rye whiskey business is carried on by the
(e) Hannis Distilling Company, organized April 28, 1871.
The business of the American Spirits Manufacturing Co.
is the distillation and sale of spirits and alcohol.
The Spirits Distributing Co. owns and conducts the blending and distributing business of H. H. Shufeldt & Co. of
Chicago and of the st. Paul Distilling Co. of South St. Paul,
Minn.
The Standard Distilling & Distributing Co. is engaged in
the business of selling and distributing spirits and alcohol
and has a large number of distributing branches.
These Companies are separate corporations and are governed as such.
Many economies have been effected in the respective constituent companies by the concentration of both producing
and distributing plants, but further material economies
might be brought about by conducting the entire spirit and
alcohol branch through one corporation.
Your management has in contemplation the suggestion
(if the same can be legally and equitably accomplished) of
merging the American Spirits Manufacturing Co. and the
Spirits Distributing Co.; this would effect considerable savings in corporate taxes, administrative charges and cost of
handling the spirit business.
The business in Bourbon and Rye whiskies is entirely distinct from that of spirits and alcohol— the business of fine
whiskies being absolutely based on brands and trademarks, and the business of spirits and alcohol being one of
finished raw material, in which the brand generally cuts no
figure.
It is a well-known fact that each standard brand of whiskey,
Bourbon or Rye, has its own peculiar taste and bouquet, to
which the individual drinker of straight whiskey has become
accustomed. There are in the United States about 4,000
wholesale liquor dealers and rectifiers who blend and compound fine whiskies with spirits. Each one of these dealers
has built up his own business, based on the use of one or
more brands of Kentucky or Bourbon whiskey, or one or
more brands of Eastern Rye whiskey, or both.
These
whiskies, in fact, are as indispensable to the compounder and
bleeder as flour is to the baker. There is no other business
in which the brand is more essential, therefore there is no
other business where the value of brands and trade marks
greater.
7b e Kentucky Distilleries
Warehouse Co. owns more
tan 90? of all the standard brands of Bourbon whiskey, the
reputations of which were built up through the expenditure
of many millions of dollars and many years of effort. Fifty
is
-
&
30,
1900.
Million Dollars ($50,000,000) is alow estimate of the amount
expended to establish these brands.
The storage item is a feature peculiar to the straight
whiskey business. It requires from four to six years to
properly mature straight whiskies.
The Internal Revenue law provides that after the whiskies
are manufactured, they must be deposited in the United
States Bonded Warehouses connected with the distilleries,
such whiskies remaining under the charge and supervision
of the United States Government officials until the tax is
paid or the whiskies exported.
The law provides that they may 'remain in these warehouses for a period of eight years, after which the tax must
be paid unless the goods be exported from this country.
The long-established charge for storage is five cents per
barrel per month.
The warehouses belonging to the Kentucky Distilleries
& Warehouse Co. now contain over 800, 0CO barrels of whiskey in storage, the storage revenue from which is more
than $450,000 per annum. The storage is a lien on the whiskey and provides sure revenue, which is as fixed and absolute as is the Government Revenue itself.
Herewith are appended the reports, balance sheets, statements of profit and loss accounts and net earnings, and a
summary of current net assets of the Companies, as at June
30th, 1900. The total amount of current net assets, independent of real estate, plants, machinery, propertes, brands,
trade-marks, etc., is, as shown in the summary, $7,494,372 03.
The business of the Companies has with great effort been
now so systematized as to render It practicable in the
and the same
future to make statements semi annually
will hereafter be made as soon as possible after January
first and July first in each year.
The magnitude of this Company's undertaking can be
better appreciated after a careful study of the various Balance Sheets, with the knowledge that the Constituent Companies own and control 96 separate plants, and that the volume of business, including the revenue tax for the period
ending June 30th, 1900, amounted to $81,108,842 59.
The work of the first year has been chiefly formative, and
has prescribed great and difficult tasks in the proper organization, systematization and unification of the business,
with resulting economies, and in devising methods to
handle the large business compactly, economically and with
;
facility.
The plants have been kept in first-class physical condition,
equipped with modern machinery and well fitted to produce
cheaply and with the best results. The cost of all repairs
required to put and keep the properties in good condition
has been charged to operating expenses and therefore
nothing need be written off for depreciation.
spirit business (distinguished from the whiskey busifrom the time of the failure of the Distilling & Cattle
Feeding Company, 1891-5, has, with slight intervals, been in
a condition of turmoil and a continuing succession of trade
wars until the tenth of last September, at which time a general understanding was effected with all the interests in the
trade, and the situation now promises to be lasting and
fruitful of good results. The condition of this branch of the
business has never been as satisfactory as at the present
The
ness),
time.
This result was possible and was accomplished only
through the ability of the companies to manufacture at less
cost than competitors, and also by reason of their more
highly organized and efficient machinery of distribution.
The condition of the spirit business to-day is better than

scarcely equals the demand. Stocks in the
hands of dealers are entirely exhausted. This state of
affairs, it is believed, may be continued almost indefinitely,
provided the market is kept sufficiently low to obviate the
production
temptation for
new
competitive spirit
distilleries.
The Kentuckv situation may be summed up in a few
words. Since the latter part of 1893, owing to the very large
over-production of the standard brands of Kentucky whiskies in 1890, 1891, 1892 and 1893, that industry has been in a
state of demoralization, from which it is only now recovering.
The bonded period, as already stated, is eight years; therefore all whiskies manufactured" previous to 1893 have been
withdrawn and practically consumed. What are called
"floor stocks," that is, tax- paid whiskies in the hands of the
dealers, have been reduced to a minimum.

The average annual withdrawals for the past eleven years
were 17.106,458 gallons, so that the shortage of matured
whiskies is unparalleeld in the history of the business.

Kentucky situation

" when the outlook seemed so favorable for the fine whiskies of Kentucky as at the present time. Statistically,
"the market is extraordinarily strong, and although this
" strength is not apparent, as yet, to the casual observer,
"it only requires a little activity in the market to ex" hibit it to the most skeptical."

utilize additional working capital to the extent of $3,000,000
to $5,000,000, the use of which would at once largely increase
its profits and hasten the development of its great earning
capacity.
Under existing circumstances it is deemed appropriate to
refer to the fact that since the organization of this Company false rurnois reflecting upon its condition, affairs and
management have been persistently disseminated in different ways, including the institution of certain suits, all for
questionable purposes, and a portion of which, at least, are

the constituent companies.
Through untrue reports and the instigation of suits (the
complaints in some of which were published in the press
before being filed in Court) by some real or pretended
holders of a few shares of stock, the credit of the different
Companies was affected, and it has required persistent effort
on the part of your management to recover from these
attacks
but to-day the credit and commercial standing of
the Companies are good.
These occurrences brought about the formation of an independent Protective Committee of stockholders, which

was announced on December 26th, 1899. Your management
immediately extended to the Committee every opportunity
for the fullest examination into the affairs of this and the
The plan will doubtless be promptly approved, if favorable to the property and the stockholders, and if the cost of
procuring such additional capital is not excessive.
If the plan is not approved, the only effect so far as the
Company and the stockholders are concerned, will be that
dividends will be deferred until such additional working
capital has been set aside from the profits, and this can
probably be easily done within the present current year, or,
at the latest, within the year following.
Considering the obstacles surrounding the organization
and systematization of so great an enterprise and the many
difficulties that had to be and were ove<come, the operations of the first year should be deemed satisfactory to the
stockholders.
The property, all in all, is an extremely promising one,
and with careful and economical management should take
rank with the foremost industrial enterprises in the land.

The Committee and its expert availed themselves of every
means to make the examination, with the result that they
realized that the charges against this and the Constituent
Companies and their management were unfounded. On
June 1, 1900, the Committee presented to the stockholders a
report in which it stated that it was impossible for the Committee to show the earnings for the then current year, (that
being the only fiscal year of the Constituent Companies
since the organization of this Company), but that on June
30, 1900 (being toe close of the fiscal year of these Companies, except of the Hannis Co.), full and correct inventories would be made, and the books closed, and the conditions and earnings of all the Companies accurately ascertained, and promptly made known to the stockholders
What is said in this report, as well as what was said by the
Committee in its communication to the stockholders, will
account for tbe fact that no earlier detailed report by your
officers has been possible.
As will be seen from the

Fbiday Night, Oct.
19, 1900.
The general report is of a comparatively quiet business.
The Presidential campaign still exercises a disturbing influence, the tendency being to hold off awaiting developments.
Confidence in the future, nevertheless, has been general, with
the result that values for most lines of merchandise have
shown considerable firmness. There was no marked pressure
to market holdings. The visit of Mr. Bryan to New York
and the East, and his campaign utterances, have attracted
considerable attention ; but they have not been of a character
to shake general confidence in the success of tbe Republican
Party in the coming election. Considerable progress has
been made toward a settlement of the anthracite coal
miner's strike. Weather conditions in the South and West
have been favorable for the crops.
Lard on the epot has been only sparingly offered, but with
a light demand prices have declined, closing at 7 400. for
prime Western and 7c. for prime City. Refined lard has
been quiet, and prices have weakened to 7 '50c. for refined for
the Continent. Speculation in lard for future delivery in the
Western market has been moderately active. Packers have
been aggressive sellers, and this, with increased sales, has
weakened prices. The close was steadier on covering of
short sales.

Speculation in cotton for fu'ure delivery has b^n fairly
acnve. Eirly in the week the tendency of pnc-s was downward. S-lling by speculative h aiders continued a fea ure.
Developments generally were agaiost tie market. Tue English maihet failed to show any stability, being unfavorably
i fluericed by a continued heavy movement of tte crop, free
offerings from the Sooth, large export clearances and favoraole weatner in tbe cotton belt. Oq Wednesday, however,
there developed a steadier tone, iniicitions beinar that the
pel'ing pie-sure was largely over in both the N w York and
Liverpool markets. Privae a1 vices rec«iv-d from the latter
market stated that the offerings from tbe S >nth were smaller,
which wan taken as an indication that planters were less disPieiicti>ns of
p is-vi to sell on the lover bas's of values
colder weather io the cotton belt and fear of frost also had a
steadying influence. Thursday th^re was a firmer market
during early 'Change on strooger advices from Liverpool and
repoits of frt*t in the northeastern se tion of theco»ton
belt.
Indications, however, were for a higher temperature,
and tbis, coup'ed with a continued full cr >p
>vement, had
a weakening inflaer ce later iD the day. Ton»y the market
opened 8'eadir-r, reflecting firmer foreign advices thaa generally expected.
Sunsi-qu-ntlv, how-ver, a report issued by
the Agncul ural Bur<-aa p aeiog the loss 10 tne- T xas crop
by the recent hurricane at equal to or ly 68,000 ba'es and
warmer weather in the South Lai a w eak<-ning ii flueuce.
Du-ing the late trading there was some buying r»y th.rs to
covrr contracts, induced by the movement o tne crop being
slightly under expectations, and the lom was partially recovered. The close was steady, with prices unchanged to 2
points lower for the day
Cotton on the spot has declined,
closing at to%c. for middling upland*

market has continued to be experienced for
wheat flour. The tendency of prices for the grain has been
downward, and values for wheat flour have weakened in
sympathy. Aside, however, from a moderate demand from
the West Indies, business h*s been slow. J^bfrrs generally
have been iu different buyers, as there have been no developments of a character to induce extensive purchases, and exportel s also have had few orders. Rye flour has had only a jobbing
sale, but as offerings have been light prices have been well
maintained. Corn meal has been quiet and prices have weakened slightly. Buckwheat flour has been in small supply for
prompt de ivery and better prices have been paid.
Speculation in wheat for future delivery has been without
snap and tbe tendency of prices has continued downward.
Weather conditions in the West and Northwest have been
favorable. The crop movement has been increasing, and the
indications point to a further increase in the receipts, which
at present are running equal to last year. The statistical

Indian corn futures have been quiet, and there has been
an easier turn to values, with the weakness most pronounced
on the nearby deliveries. The receipts at interior points
have been fairly large, and the visible supply, as reported
on Monday, showed an increase for the week of nearly
2.000,000 bushels. Country offerings, according to the advices received from the West have been freer, and speculative
holders have shown more of a disposition to liquidate
their accounts; still there has been no aggressive selling.
The spot market has been weaker and on the lower basis of
values a fairly large export business has been transacted.
To-day there was a quiet market, but prices advanced
slightly on an active export demand. The stock market was
active and firmer. The sales for export here and at outports
were
1,300,000 bushels.

Oats for future delivery at the Western market have been
quiet, but prices have held steady. Some of the leading
operators have been reported as being moderate buyers, apparently for investment accoan , and this demand has held
the market despite the weaker diift to values for other grain.
Locally the spot market has been quiet, and there has been
a fractional decline in prices. To-day the market was quiet

Liverpool. By oable from Liverpool we have the following statement of the week's sales, stooks, &c, at that port,
Sept.
but as the trade has not been disposed to take these reports
seriously, they have had no decided influence upon the market. The export business has been moderately active, but
the bulk of the busim ss has been at out ports and direct from
the interior. Frioes have declined with futures. To-day
there was a firmer market, reflecting steadier foreign advices and small shipments from Argentine. The spot market
wrs firmer but quiet. The sal-s for export here and at outports were 136,000 bushels, and there were rumors of addi-
