10 years which include the hard years
1894, 1895 and 1S96-after charging all ex-
penses, wear and tear of plants, and bad
debts, and making proper allowances for
executive salaries, have been 81 ,250 620,
and that the aggregate earnings for the
first half of the present year at least equal
this average With the savings possible
by the combinations of the plants, the cal
culations of most competent men put the
net earnings at not less than 80, 200,0
without increased output, which is equal
to the interest and sinking fund of the
bonds, per cent dividend on the prefer
red, and 3 or per cent on the common
stock. The transfer of the property will
take place as soon as possible after the
closing of the books on Tuesday.

One of our contemporaries remarks up-
on the extent to which Thomas Il. Reed
has disappeared from sight since he landed
upon the shores of Europe in his present
visit there. Mr.. Reed is fresh from hold
ing the second Office in the United States
government. Such is his own estimate of
it, and those who differ from him on this
point will agree that he has done much to
make 1t such. Yet we hear nothing of
his being feasted or feted, or being con-
spicuous in any way abroad. Contrast his
progress with that of Chauncey NJ. Depew,
for instance. The latter not only invites
being interviewed to the last moment
of his leaving the wharf at home,
and is heard from as soon as he
reaches 1t on his return, but he puts him
self in evidence pretty much all the time
he is away. No public man of this coun-
try has gone abroad since Gen. Grant, who
has figured in public life more conspicuous
ly than Mr.. Reed, and none who, by his
presence and intellectual capacity, is bet
ter fitted to impress foreign peoples, but
he travels as a private citizen, and avoids
opportunities for personal display. There
are different methods of obtaining enjoy
ment among public men, and Mr. Reed
appears to find his in modesty, and self
effecement, yet the nation would have
been prouder of him in some public APP
pearance than of others who have sought
rather than shrunk from the opportunity.
