TIE Baltimore and Ohio Relief De-
partment has ordered dividend Of one
per cent. per annum TO all depositorS
having accounts drawing interest al
the close Of the fiscal year ended June
3Oth last. This is the third consecutive
wear this dividend has been declared.
This dividend is in addition to the four
per cent. interest guaranteed under the
REGULATIONS aud, taken with that, is
equivalent to five per cent. interest per
aanum upon deposits The total
amount of deposits to date is S1,666,-
44O.16: total loans Sl,O65, 1862 IS. The

stockholder in the United States Glass
Company has been finding fault
through the public prints with the

cent. on his stock for the first year.
Somesmeu are never satisfied. We could
name q number OF people who have
held stock IN glass factories who would
have been glad TO have held their stock
at its par value, but in addition to re-
ceiving no dividends at all the only get
IS to 40 per cent of their own money
back. President Ripley comes bsek at
the disgruntled stakeholder and says
affairs Of the q. S. G. Co. are conducted
on a business basis. aud that the policy
is to remove incompetent persons
whether they are stockholders or not,
and this seems to be hitting at tho core.
