NO DIVIDENDS.

Mr.. Oliver W. Mink, one Of the receivers
of the Union Pacific Railroad. says that
the road has not paid dividend in ten
years. Its net earnings In 1898 were
SO, 1T. 91S; in 1892 S9,75O741. But no divi-
dends were paid either year. 1t is not on
record either that the company paid the
interest on the bonds the Government had
Endorsed. Judge Caldwell seemed little
curious to know what became of all the
net revenue. He asked Mink if it was
true. as Governor Pattison's report repre-
sented, that of the Sl09 0OO 900 of debt COW
ering the system S73, 100000 represented
profit of construction. Mr.. Mink replied
that Governor Pat ison had been misled.
1t does not appear. however. thai Mr.. Mink
pointed out any errors in Governor Patti
sons report.
The footing of the Union Pacific and the
Central Pacific is one of the crimes of the
century. 1t Il ffers from the footing of the
Panama Canal fund in the factthat in the
American case the hooters were men whom
the Government had placed in charge Of
public funds. O Besides the obligation of
common honesty there was the obligation
of gratitude. A good many mean men will
respect a benefactor. But these two rail-
road companies did not let sentiment come
between them and the millions the Gov
eminent had confided to their keeping.
The morning call., 1894-04-01
ITS MORAL EFFECT.

A New York financial writer based his
prediction that the President would veto
the seigniorage bill On the ground that to
sign it would have a bad moral effect.
This writer seems under the impression
that veto will stop the silver agitation.
He imagines that dociIe Congress will
authorize the Treasury Department to
issue new bonds as fast as the treasury
runs short of gold. He continues:
Any financial measure which aims to Increase
the sum OF money in circulation. but is Of such
a character as 10 shake credit, produces con-
traction of the currency in the worst form, for
it contracts the credit currency, which does 90
per cent OF the business and is the only cur
rency which is thoroughly elastic, expanding
when called for and contracting when not
needed.
The credit currency does not expand
when called for. The moment there is
well-defined cloud in the sky the credit
currency contracts. The check of man
is as good as gold one day and worthless
the next. 1t is good as long as there is but
the ordinary demand for gold, but great
deal Of the paper currency which serves as
money in good times cannot stand much
depreciation in values. The aim Of BIZ
metallism is to increase the amount of
money of ultimate redemption, and thereby
to give credits a broader basis to stand
Upon. The bill which Mr.. Cleveland vetoed
would have added $50. Ooo, 900 to the amount
of money In the treasury which might be
used to protect the slender stock OF gold
which now serves as the basis of cur
rency nine times as large, according to the
writer who approves of the veto.
The morning call., 1894-04-01
GOOD AS THE LAW STANDS.

Collector Wise has informed Chinese
upon what terms a registered Chinaman
may. return. The Collector will require
proof that the departing Chinese is a mem
ber; of a mercantile firm, the value Of his
interest therein and the names of other
members of the firm. This proof must be
left in this country when the departing
Chiaese departs. There is no way under
the present law by which a Chinese
laborer may go and return. But after the
new treaty goes into effect and laws are
made to conform to it the road OF the re-
turning Chinese will be easy. He may
return If he. has lawful wife, child or
parent in this country; he may return if
he has property to the amount of $1,000, a
debt due being considered the same as
property. The only restraint upon gen.
eral return movement is the requirement
that evidence shall be submitted prior to
departure. II any Chinese desiring to go
home cannot comply with the conditions
he must. arm himself on return with evil
dence to show that be is a student,
teacher, traveller for curiosity or for some
thing more substantial, or is merchant.
If none of these avenues prove available
he can. fall back on the right Of transit.
The information impaired by Collector
Wise is good as the law now stands. But
it will not be good after the new treaty is
ratified. Just at the time when we had
come to pretty good understanding of
the ways and means to keep Chinese out
the administration provides new ways for
them to get in.

WHO PAYS DUTIES ?

=. A cores pendent asks: WHO pays the
duty on sugar, the producer or the con-
sGmer? Ii the consumer pays the tax on
sugar, why:does not the consumer pay the
tax on imported cloths?"
THE CALL has gone over this ground
quite frequently. The consumer pays the
duties on all articles We do not produce at
home. On articles we import and produce
also, the foreign producer pays portion
if not all the duty. We will illustrate with
the articles of tea and steel rails. The
United States produces no tea Conse-
Quen:ly whatever duty is laid upon tea is
paid by the consumer. AS there is no tea
produced by the United States there is no
cause in operation in the United States 10
compel the foreign producer to lower his
prices in order to get into our market.
The people of the United States want TEA
and there is no way to get it except to buy
it of those who produce it. Steel rails are
manufactured both abroad and at home.
The foreign. cost per ton lis Iabont S. less
than the home cost. The home price is
about S26 per ton. the foreign price in port
of production SCI. We put on duty Of SIS
a ton, which brings the home cost and the
foreign cost with duty added to COM
mon level But TO get his product to our
market, where it will sell for S26 ton,
the foreign producer has to pay the duty.
He cannot get it back by charging it to the
consumer, for the simple reason that the
consumer Will buy the homemade article
at S26 ton. 1t seems very clear. therefore,
that the consumer of tea has to pay what
ever. duty may be laid upon that article.
while the foreign producer of steel rails
has to pay the American duty to get into
the market.
= Sugar. substantially is under the rule
that applies to tea. We produce some
sugar, but not enough to materially affect
the foreign price. If the lime should ever
come when we can supply our wants in
that line at the cost OF foreign sugar with
duty added, the foreign producer will have
to pay the American duty to get into the
American market. If be will not do So,
Americans will supply their own market.
