The Growth Of The Trusts.
Picaynne.

In a recent issue the New York
Commercial and Financial Chroni-
Gle furnishes a most interesting
compilation of the amount OF
stocks and bonds Aoated by what
are known as industrisls, or trusts,
during the first six months of the
present year. Everybody was we'll
aware of the fact that a large num-
Der of these combinations had been
formed during the last half OF the
proceeding year and the first half
of 1899; but few had any idea OF
the vast amount of securities these
combinations have placed on the
market.
The summary of the complete
table furnished by the Chronicle
of the securities Aoated by the
trusts during the first half of 1899
makes the following showing:
Amount Of common stock. 81. ssl .o7S!ooO
Amount of preferred stock ........ .1,0lo.Ws0O
Amount Of bonds. ......-..... .us,SoosuOo
| Grand total. ...$S.l4l.SO.VO
Add increase in stock OF American
Tobacco Compay Increased from
S2l,OOO,OO0 to 5000. 0o0) .......... S.0oo.ooO
Increase in stock of Continental
Tobacco Company (from $75.ooo.:
600 to 500 .000. 000)................. &.oo0,WO
ss.9oi $4,000
Just think of it, $3,2Ol, 600, 900
of stocks and bonds issued to &C.
present probably not q fourth of
that amount in actual value! Of
course, the investing public have
purchased a good par. of these
, stocks and bonds, and will be ex-
pected to absorb the balance as
fast as the original holders can
succeed in unloading them. Some
: body must eventually lose the vast
sums represented in these issues
over and above the actual value Of
= the property possessed by the
trusts. When the day of settle.
ment comes, what an upheaval
there will be in financial affairs!
These immense issues of securi.
ties are little short of criminal
and one actually wonders how peo'
pie with money can be induced to
invest in them.
