Statistics of Circulation

The money of all kinds in circulation on
December l amounted to 1885, $40 ,504,
which represents an increase of nearly $685.
SOC, 600 as compared with the corresponding
date last year. The heaviest single item Of
increase was gold coin, which showed a gain
for the year Of nearly $ll4, 800, 900, or more
than two-thirds of the net increase for the
year. Standard silver dollars exhibited an
increase OF nearly so, 100000, subsidiary sill
yer one of over $5, 100000 and silver cert-
fcates gain of over $l9, SOC, 600, while gold
certificates showed decrease of over ST.
100000. United States notes footed up over
S49, ,50O, 900 more than on December lst last
year and national bank notes over $l3, ,200,-
OO0 more, while currency certificates of 1872
were S2S, 100000 less and treasury notes of
1890 showed falling off of nearly $4,000, 000
The treasury experts, on the basis Of pop
ulotion of Is, l94, 900, estimate the circulation
per capita at $500. This represents, says
Bradstreet's an increase of % cents per
capita for the month and of Sl.7O as com
pared with year ago, so that, as will be
seen, the volume OF circulation is outrun-
ming that of population.
Another net increase in circulation,
though nothing like so large as that report
ed for the preceding month, is recorded for
the month of November. The net increase
amounted to $50, ,303, ,722. There were only
two items of decrease, namely, S5S, ,2G0 in
gold certificates and 7SS,ooS in treasury
notes OF 1890. The most noteworthy item
of increase was $9,l39,7S6 in gold coin

Dun & Co.'s Review

| NEW YORK, Dec. 16-R. G. Dun & Co.'S
weekly review of trade tomorrow will say:
December is adding a surprising close to
the most surprising year of American his
| tory. November surpassed all other mont his
| of the century In volume Of business and
| production, and thus far December is doing
even better in payments through clearing
houses, in railroad earnings, in foreign
| trade, In output Of pig iron, In activity and
strength Of securities.
| But that is saying a great deal. for in
| all these and other tests November was far
the best month of American financial his
tory. December began with pig iron out
| put of 235,52e tons weekly, aga INST 22S, 935

diminished 2S,9SS tons in November which
indicates a consumption of 1,024.3 .3l3 tons
during the month. Not only is the output
| the greatest ever known, but it has IN
creased 22h per cent since 1892. which de-
veloped the greatest monthly record then
ing for si4.75 at Pittsburg, but but Until Until the the

demand and % sales "a to sloS5 there. wi h

besides @.O0o tons of billets, which have
risen at Pittsburg, with big transactions, to
SIG. With scarcity of pig iron feared both
east and west, there is as yet no rise what
ever in finished products, although the de-
mand Is far beyond all production. Steel
rails are quoted at SIT peII on at the east,
although the Lackawanna company has
taken orders for 100000 tons at the west,
both the Pittsburg and Chicago works be-
ing sold far ahead, and bids for go 900 tons
for Australia are to be opened today. while
Chicago has pending a bid for 200. .0G9 tons,
deliverable in two years In Asiatic Russia
In other lines the demand for finished
products is of surprising ma gnitude, es-
pecially in plates and sheets.
The woolen industry also comes to the
front with very extensive purchases of
wool by large houses and small, helped by
material concessions at Boston. so that
sales at the three chief markets have been

ON CHANGE
Conditions as Shown by Transactions
on Wall Street

NEW YORK, Dec. 16-The trading today
resulted in only trifing changes in prom
inent stocks. The speculative public In
england was active on both SIDES of the
market, with purchases of the balance
shghtly In excess of sales. Trading locally
strong undertone was in evidence. The
lraders seemed largely on the short side,
wh!le there was buying by commission
houses and pool support. Speculation dur
ing the forenoon was very irregular, but
variations generally were not significant t
except In few cases. The market became
dull with the cancellation Of orders in
number of hitherto neglected stocks were
taken UP and advanced sharply. The re-
vamping of the old story of Chicago and
Alton passing into new hands was today
connected with Union Pacific instead of
Missouri Pacific or Michigan Central, as
the former rumors had it. To this tale,
perhaps, was due rise In Northern Pa
cific. In the last hours the bears, by con
certed action, reached stop-loss orders, and
carried prices down from one 10 two points
generally. BY delivery houses, the move
ment petered out and in a period of dull
ness prices picked up all around. News
paper articles tre&,ing the sugar trade war
as farcical resulted in a sharp rise in that
stock at the opening, which was soon lost,
the closing being at last nights figures.
Ihe grangers were very strong most of the
day, but reacted with the rest of the list
on the bear rise.
In the bond market today the general
tone was very unsettled, with the semi
speculative issues tending lower. Total
sales, IS, ,355 coo.

ting up his dollars, to know that the COM
pany, property, and enterprise are in the
management OF men competent to handle
the affairs economically, yet broadly enough
to render success assured while gaining the
friendship and good will of the people at
large. Then again Americans are generally
hustlers and they let no grass grow under
their feet while endeavoring to achieve the
best results for the corporation with which
they are connected.
Another feature of this condition of af-
fairs, says the Chicago Banker and Investor,
Is that there is today in Chicago demand
for Mexican securities, whereas year ago
it was almost an utter impossibilty to OBJ
tain even hearing for the most gilt-edged
proposition. Whether this is caused by an
awakened interest in Latin-Amcrican oun-
tries owing to the Spanish war, or whether
it is because there is u much larger volume
of money seeking investment is an open
question BE the cause what it may the
fact is apparent that Mexican investments
stand higher than ever before and the Bank
er and Investor is very much mistaken if
there are not millions of dollars invested
in all kinds of Mexican enterprises during
the next year

The Engineers and Architects associa-
tion Of this city will leave this morning on
trip to Santa Ana canyon, which promises
to be Of great interest as showing what has
been done there in the way of developing
power to produce electrical energy. At 8
o'clock the members will take the train at
Arcade depot for Grafton, en- route to the
Southern California power plant in the
Santa Ana canyon. Carriages will meet
the members at Grafton and lunch will be
had at the power house; the water will be
turned out of the canals and tunnels and
every opportunity given to inspect the
work. AT o'clock banquet will be served
at the Casa Iona hotel, after which the
regular December meeting of the association
will be held in the reception room. The
members will be quartered at the Casa
Iona and after breakfast Sunday morning
the return trip will be over the Santa Fe

Mexican Investments

With the assurance there is TO danger of
a resumption of war with Spain, nor any in
reference by any of the powers, there has
been wonderful appreciation in the de-
mand for good and reliable securities and a
somewhat peculiar, yet gratifying feature
OF this demand is the extent to which the
securities of American companies operating
in the Republic of Mexico are being sought
notably railway, navigation and manufac-
turing enterprises.
AT first blush it may seem absurd that
the securities OF American companies oper-
ating in Mexico should be preferred to those
OF other nationalities, but there are many
reasons for this condition. One of these is
tnat American companies, as a rule are or
ganized by men who have had more or less
experience in corporation work in the
United States and have been measurably
successful. They understand the conditions
governing the issue of first mortgage bonds.
stocks, ETC., and their companies are gen.
orally Incorporated under United States
laws. Consequently the securities are issued
according to those laws and in the form
which experience has shown to be the most
satisfactory to the investor. The filing of
their articles OF incorporation in Mexico
gives them all the rights of foreign corpora.
tons as well as those guaranteed under
Mexican laws, thus the investor has the
double guarantee of the two republics MS to
the safety and validity of his investment
Then again many Americans are thoroughlv
familiar with all the details of handling cor.
porations successfully, and this is another
great desideratum to the man who is put

improvements in Arc Lights

Experiments with view to producing an

have not met with entire success, but cast
ern technical journals report that recent
design of submarine arc lamp of from 1000
to 1000 candle power Dy Nlessrs Buriick &
Hall, meets all requirements. The lamps
described as being absolutely water right,
with an inner and outer globe, the upper
part of the outer globe being hermetically
sealed to the metal cylinder containing the
feeding mechanism by means of rubber gas
kets and rings The feeding mechanism in
this lamp differs from that of the ordinary
arc lamp in that it is enclosed in a cylinder
both water and air. tight From the top
of the cylinder, through carefully packed
aperture, issue the two insulated wires,
which, for convenience, are bound together
into cable. The lower portion of the lamp
is protected by an eight-wire guard. Tests
of the lamp at the depth of twenty-five feet
are. said to have been satisfactory. Mining

Electric Railway Decision

The court of appeals of the District of
Columbia held, in the. recent case of the
NETT, reported in the Washington Law Re
porter, that an electric car has no exclusive
or superior right of way at point where
its track intersects that Of horse car line
but must be stopped to allow the horse car
to pass when the latter arrives first at the
point of intersection; that in such case the
driver of the horse car is justified in sup
posing that the electric car is moving within
the maximum rate of speed prescribed by
law, and that his right as that of the first
arrival at the crossing will be respected by
those in charge OF the electric car, and that
where under such circumstances collision
occurred between the horse car and the elec-
trio car by reason of the high rate of speed
at which the latter was moving, and its fail
urc to stop before reaching the point of in
ters.ection, it could not be said as matter
of law that the driver of the horse car was
guilty of contributory negligence in attempt
ing to cross the track of the electric car.
