INDUSTRIAL JOTTINGS.
Future of the Delaware and Hudson
Company as Viewed by the New
York News Bureau Others
News Items.
Tho New York News Bureau says:
"There has recently been uulet, but
Important buying of Delaware and
Hudson company stock, which Is un
derstood to have been of the 'best
character. At the close of business
Wednesday there were confident re
ports that tho actual control of the
company had passed Into the hands of
the New York Central. Insiders In
the Delaware and Hudson, referring
to the rumors, say that no proposi
tion would be regarded by the large
Investment Interests In It from either
the New York Central or any other
company, on a basis of less than an
S per cent, guarantee of the stock. It
may be news to some persons to know
that the records of the Delaware and
Hudson show over a term of sixty
three years an average dividend dis
bursement of 8', per cent. This year
the company is expected to earn some
thing like a per cent, net after taking
care of the sinking fund, which pro
vides for a payment of 5 cents on
evety ton of coal mined by the Dela
ware and Hudson. This money will,
however, be applied to Investments
In the company's own securities.
"The Delaware and Hudson will ben
efit largely, In common with the other
anthracite mining and carrying com
panies, from the Improvement in tho
anthracite coal trade and the advance
In anthracite prices of 25 cents per
ton on July 1 and 23 cents per ton
additional, not later than Oct. I,
means a gain for all the companies
fit the rate of $,10,000,000 n year.
"Independent of the Improvement In
the coal trade, the Delaware and Hud

Within a few days both the Paxton
furnaces, In the lower part of Hur
rlsburg, will be In operation, owing
to the great demand for pig iron. One
of these was started several months
ago and has been running at Its full
capacity, about seventy tons a day.
Enough orders have been received to
keep both furnaces at work for
months. About two years ago they
were shut down becauso about 20,000
tons of pig Iron had accumulated In
the yards. Seven of tho eight service,
able furnaces In Dauphin county will
soon be in operation.

From Harper's Magazine.
Of great value to tho people of the
I'nlted States generally, the Nicaragua,
cnnul Ib u matter of speclul Import
ance to the I'aclflcand Southern states.
Tho Pacific territories, with an area
of nearly 800,000 square miles, depen
dent on the Pacific ocean for access to
tho outer world, "imperial in extent,"
as Hlulne called them, are of greater
extent that Germany, France, Italy and
Spain combined.
Their extraordinary growth need not
here bo dwelt on nt length. Enough
that, with only C per cent, of the popu
lation, they possess 10 per cent, of
the entire wealth of the union, while
the railway mileage exceeds that of
nny European country, with the excep
tion of France and Germaily.
The three marltlmo provinces. Cali
fornia, Oregon and Washington, aro
tho richest, and they nre the most ex
posed to attack containing C7 per cent,
of tho wealth of the Pacific states',
The whole Pacific coast as yet, how
ever, takes but an inadequate share
only 5.C9 per cent of the totiH, im
port and export trade of the United
States.
Tho Southern states will also, by
means of the Nicaragua canal, parti-'
clpate largely In tho development of
the Pacific and tho far east. In tho
south uro combined the advantages of
nil tho other sections, without thelu
greatost drawbacks; and the remark
able progress achieved thore in the past
dozen years will undoubtedly bo sur
passed In tho future,
