COUNTING THE COST,
VIII 1t Be Profitable to Refine Sugar
i'm America?


NEW YORK, Nov. 29.-The World to-
morrow will say: Henry o. Havemeyer.
president of the sugar trust, yester-
day qualified his previous statement
that the refineries OF the COM
pany in Brooklyn, Boston, Bait
imore and Philadelphia would not be
operated again for an indefinite period.
He said about one-half OF the men would
be permitted to return to work Monday.
He said tonight:
$50 much of the organization as Ia in
ispensable will return to work on Monday.
That means partial resumption of melt
ing but an increased cost per pound of
sugar."
1t is a matter of conjecture with the
com pany whether 1t is cheaper to shut up
entirely or work the reduced amount at an
increased cost. Il will take three weeks TO
determine that question.

CHICAGO WON OUT.
1t Was Somewhat OF Surprise to
Those Who Saw the Garne

CHICAGO, Nov. 29.--Darmouth College
and the Chicago Athletic Association
fought for football honors at the South
side Athletic Park to-day. Despite the
storm the grandstands were packed. Game
was called at IL o'clock, the teams lining
nm "a foIlows.
The morning call., 1894-11-30

The final score. to 0 in Chicago's favor
was surprise to Westerners, as the Dart
mouths had been expected to beat the
Athletic Association team badly. The
play was hot from start to finish, and
while none of the men left the grounds
several were badly bruised.
Chicago kicked off and got the ball we'll
down Dartmout6's neld, but heavy Sglfs9
ing prevented scoring, the first half ending
to 0. Much of the play in the last half
was dangerously close to Chicago's goal,
but clever punts and hard scrimmaees
finally resulted in Vander's carrying the
ball beyond Dartmouth's line. A punt
for try for goal gave Dartmouth the
ball. but soon after Chcago's touchdown
the game was called, leaving the final
score: Chicagos 4, Dartmouth O.

Lehigh Valley Salaries Reduced.

The officers of the Lehigh Valley Rail
road Company are preparing notice to
be sent out broadcast in few days, an
nouncing the fact that on and after De-
cember there will be a reduction of 10
per cent in all salaries over 81 900 per
annum. This reduction is somewhat of
a surprise, not only to the clerks, but to
the officers as well, as it was thoupht
that with the improvement of business
a few months ago there would be no
necessity for such a move Althouph
the freight and passenger business have
shown some improvement the coal bust
ness is in such state that it is now
being carried on at loss.
1t could not be ascertained how long
this reduction is to be in force, but from
the statement made it is inferred that as
soon as there is an improvement in all
kinds of railroad business, especially in
the coal situation, old salaries will be
resumed.
The officers of the company were very
reticent in regard to this reduction,
merely making the announcement that
it was to take place the beginning of
next month.

Arranging A Coal Prices.

The individual operators of the Ie-
high Valley Railroad Company have
adopted a resolution requesting the Le-
high Valley Coal Company to meet the
market and sell their coal at the best
price obtainable at any and all points in
order that the line and tidewater prices
may be more in harmony. This action
has grown out of an apparently uniust
discrimination in the matter of coal
prices in favor of the tidewater markets
as against those in the line trade. The
individual operators produce about 30
per cent of the entire output The bulk
of this is sold to the companies on a
basis OF 6O per cent of the actual prices
realized at tidewater. Under normal
conditions the tidewater price has been
Approximately that of the line price,
For some time, as an outgrowth
of the depression which had promoted
sharp competition in the tidewater mar
kets, the price of anthracite coal has
declined to greater extent than line
prices. This condition of affairs has
been the cause of much hard feeling.
The demand made on the Lehigh Valley
Company will, it is thought, force that
company TO establish one price for the
two trades.
Coke Bros. & Co., who last year pro-
duced l,OSS,O 600 tons and will this year.
it is thought, put out 1000, 900 tons or
more, have announced to the trade that
they would make one price to all points.
This action, it is said, was taken for the
purpose of bringing the various anthra
cite Interests to an agreement on the
matter of percentages and tidewater
prices. Sometime ago they made an at
tempt to secure a readjustment of allott-
ment without success.

Decided Against the ID. 5. Il s.;

The supreme court has rendered a
decision sustaining the Dauphin county
court in the appeal of the Delaware, Sus-
quehanna and Schuylkill Railroad Com
pany from the valuation placed upon its
capital stock. The company valued its
capital stock at $2,000,0OO but this
amount was doubled by the Dauphin
county court, which placed it at 1000,
600 and ordered the tax for state pur-
poses to be collected upon the latter
amount The ID. S. & S. in 1898 declar-
ed a dividend of 40 per cent upon
81 100000 capital, its net earnings for
the year being $523, ,243l5.
The management of the company,
however, considered this an altogether
exceptional year, and it was argued in
its behalf that the valuation of 50, 600, 600
wos ample in view of the future proba-
BILE profits of the road and that the court
was not warranted in departing from the
sworn valuation of its officers and that it
made an error in adding to the tangible
property and assets of the corporation
the worth of its franchises as elements
of actual value.
For the commonwealth it was contend
ed by the attorney general that even if
the tangible property and assets of the
corporation were worth only $1,000, ,OO0
the court had a right to consider the
worth of the franchise and add that as
an element of actual cash value of the
capital stock. Its facilities for doing
business and the success with which its
business was actually carried on were
elements to be considered in appraising
its capital stock.
The affirmance of this opinion by the
supreme court is considered important
by the law and tax officers of the state,
as it requires corporations to add the
peculiar value of their franchises to their
tangible assets in estimating the value of
their capital stock for state tax purposes.
