THE SMELLING CONTEST.

The following statement in relation to the con-
test in the American Smelling and Refining Com
pany issued yesterday:
The facts brought forth in the hearing before
Vice Chancellor Stevens in the suit brought by GER
tain stockholders opposed to the merger or the
American Smelling and Refining Company and the
very reaSsuring to the numerous stockholders or
the former company who voted In favor OF the
amalga ma ton These facts which are borne out
by the sworn statements of officials of both com
panies, show that the earnings of the American
Smelling Company for the six months from july,
1900 January 1901. at the rate of S59O'0OO
per annum, while the earnings of the Guggenheim
plants for the period were at the rate OF
$i.500GG1. making the combined earnings OF the
companies over $l0O00OO0 per annum When I
is furtner considered that conservative and reliable
estimates Of the economies that can be established
by the harmonious working of the two properties
under management will add another S2Wp.ctO
to this revenue bringing the total TO $l2OOOtO, I
is easy why so large proportion OF the
holders, including all the important and We'll
other advantages. the company, as increased Will
always enjoy that Of being able to smelt It's ores
and refine Its bullion the most accessible points
thereby saving greatly in transportation charges
In addition this, the numerous mines now owned
and controlled by the Ciuggenheim interests, to-
greatly add the supply Of ores available 70 the
American Smelling Company, considerably swell
ing its profits Taken altogether, IL would seem
that the new combination look forward to as
sured earnings OF $l2U00U0, or surplus OF SSJoOO
(belng II per cent? on the $50O0OlOO0 common stock
on the $50r00oOO preferred stock. With such facts
confronting US. the amalgamaton can only be a
question Of time. Notwithstanding the temporary
obstacles placed in the way OF its consummaton.
