W. call attention to a letter of Mr. R. A. S. (Darke. President of the fackawanaa Steel Compan.*. copies of which ma* k>
had on reqaeat and froaa which we asmmartae the following: Important fei *ares la retard to these Votes:
Since March 1, 1910, funded indebtedness has teen reduced $5,482,000 (including
present financing), and $6,814,669 has been expended for additions to plants and
other properties. The present financing will reduct 5 annual interest charges $139,700.
Assets of the Company in excess of prior obligations amount to over $56,000,000
equal to more than nine times these $6,000,000 notes.
Company's investments in iron ore properties are conservatively estimated to be
worth $6,165,000 more than the value at which they are carried on its books.
Valuable patent rights are owned by the Company and are carried on its
books at a nominal value.
Since 1900 Stockholders have subscribed for $27,2,50,000 Common Stock, which
was paid for at par in cash.
These Notes will be the direct obligation of t!ie Company, and will be issued under
an agreement which will provide that, until the entire amount has been paid
off, the Company will not mortgage any of its present plants, real estate,
etc.', or pledge any stocks, bonds or obligations of other companies owned or
held by the Company ; or permit to be created any mortgage or pledge thereof,
except by the issue of bonds under the First Consolidated Mortgage.
Balance available for interest charges on this Company's bonds for the past nine
years (1914 partly estimated) averaged $3,745,544. Deducting $1,250,000 prior
interest charges from this amount leaves $2,495,544 available for $360,000
interest on this issue of Notes, equal to almost seven times the amount required.
Depreciation charges are on a liberal scale. For the nine years ended December
31, 1914, $13,519,951 was charged off for Depreciation (in addition to the regular
charges for upkeep included in operating expenses) and Sinking Funds for bonds
and exhaustion of minerals.
The supply of iron ore, and coking and gas coal owned by the Company is suffi
cient to maintain operations at full ccpacity for many years.
The Company's steel mills at Lackawanna, near Buffalo, N. Y., on the shore of
Lake Erie, are well located for economical operation. They are of modern
construction, and produce rails, structural shapes, sheet piling, splice bars, tie
plates, merchant bars, billets, plates, and other forms of finished steel products.
All of the Company's properties are maintained in excellent condition.
All lecal details in eonnectl oa with this iaaue of Notes hare been approved by oor counsel, Messra. Cadwalader. wekeraham A
