DIR. DENST TEN
THE NICARAGUA CANAL.


From Harpers Magazine.
OF great value to the people Of the
United States generally, the Nicaragua
canal is a matter Of special import
ance to the Pacific and Southern states.
The Pacific territories, with an area
of nearly 100000 square miles, depen-
dent on the Pacific ocean for access to
the outer world, Imperial in extent"
as Blaine called them, are of greater
extent that Germany, France, Italy and
Spain combined.
Their extraordinary growth need not
here be dwelt on at length. Enough
that, with only per cent. Of the popu-
lation, they possess 10 per cent. Of
the entire wealth of the union, while
the railway mileage exceeds that Of
any European country with the excep-
tion of France and Germany.
The three maritime provinces, Cali
fornia, Oregon and Washington, are
the richest, and they are the most ex-
posed to attack-containing 81 per cent
Of the wealth of the Pacific states,
The whole Pacific coast as yet, how
ever, takes but an inadequate share
only 500 per cent-Of the total inn
port and export trade OF the United
States.
The southern states will also, by
means of the Nicaragua canal, parti-
cipate largely in the development OF
the Pacific and the far east In the
south are combined the advantages OF
all the other sections, without their
greatest drawbacks; and the remarks
able progress achieved there in the past
dozen years will undoubtedly be sur
passed in the future.

INDUSTRIAL JOTTINGS.
Future of the Delaware and Hudson
Company as Viewed by the New
York News Bureau-Others
News Items.

The New York News Bureau says:
There has recently been quiet, but
important buying of Delaware and
Hudson company stock, which is un-
dcrStOod to have been of the best
character. At the close of business
Wednesday there We're confident re-
ports that the actual control of the
company had passed into the hands Of
the New York Central Insiders in
the Delaware and Hudson, referring
to the rumOrs, say that no PROPOSE
tion would be regarded by the large
investment interests in it from either
the New York Central or any other
company, on a basis Of less than an
s per cent. guarantee of the stock. II
may be news to some persons to know
that the records of the Delaware and
Hudson show over term of sixty
three years an average dividend dis
hursement Of Sl2 per cent. This year
the company is expected to earn some
thing like per cent. net after taking
care Of the sinking fund, which pro-
vides for a payment of cents on
every ton of coal mined by the Della
ware and Hudson. This money will
however. be applied to Investments
in the company's own securities.
The Delaware and Hudson will ben
eft largely, i'm common with the other
anthracite mining and carrying COM
panies, from the Improvement in the
anthracite coal trade and the advance
in anthracite prices of % cents per
ton on July | ana % cents per ton
additional, not later than Oct 1,
means a gain for all the companies
at the rate of S3OOOO,OOO a year.
independent of the Improvement In
the coal trade the Delaware and Hud-
son will profit by special favorable
conditions. 1t is estimated that a
saving will be effected equivalent to
ll2 per cent. per annum on the stock,
through the refunding of the $40 ,O00 .
600 of Albany and Susquehanna Is and
Gs falling due in 1906; and the S., 900, 900
of New York and Canada 4I2s and 6s
due in 1902. Furthermore, the COM
pany has received a large sum for it's
canal and as result of hauling its
coal direct over its own lines from
Rondout to Albany will save about so
cents per ton expense, which was pre-
viously paid for transhipment on ac-
count of the maintenance of that ex-
pensive waterway"
