Philadelphia Timss.1
In view os r. Cent events. II is well to
look at come facts 10 reIStion to the fin
sncial workings OF Ihe SutZ canal, which
is the marine shcr: cut between Europe
and India. Those WHO condemn the ac-
ton IF tie E lglish government in pur-
chasing the Sa,z shares maintain that
it does not earn enough to pay the four
pei cent intetest on i.s shereS, 1t is
Quite certain that this position ia true up
to the end IF 1874. But there was vast
Increase of the trade OF tt canal in 1875,
and it is confidently predicted that more
than five per cent, has been earned,
The tolls in 1873 were % ,se7, ,3l9 francs ;
in 1874 they increased to 24,S59, ,333
francs, and in 1875 they mounted to 2S,-
S79 734 francs. In this total for 1875 is
not included the reVeltts from the do
mains Of the corhpany, which, during
the first three. quarters of the year,
amounted to about S75, ,000 francs. II g
pr0pOrtionate sum be added for the
fourth quarter, and with it the sum Of
2. 615 00U francs carried over from the
preceding year, the income for 1875 will
be 80 650,000 francs. This will leave a
disp0sable balance of IA 000, coo francs,
and as the statutory interest of five per
cent. On the capital Of 200, ,000,0 900 francs
takes only 100000 francs, a sum of
4 900. GOO francs will remain for an extra
or supplemental dividend. These are
the figures attached to several years
workings Cf the Suez canal, and they
may afford starting points for an inves-
tigation into the financial prospects of
ship canal across the Istdmus of Darien
or some other point in that locality.
