Chicago, Oct. 22.-The International
Harvester company, capital $120,000,000.
which Is to control the worlds s. output OF
harvesting machines. is being put into
shape rapidly. All of the details have
been arranged and all of the various
plants are now the property Of the Inter-
national Harvester company.
The amount raised for financing the
combination was s65, 900 900, half of which
IL to he devoted to paying off the mi
notify stockholders in the companies
merged. the balance to form the working
capital of the big corporation. Cyrus Mo-
C(lmick is the heaviest individual stock
holder, with William Deering ranking
second There is no official news being
given out as to the future but it is gen
orally believed that the working contract
went into effect Sept. l.. The milwaukee,
Harvester companys working staff mas
b .>n reduced to one-fourth.
Although the stock of the new COM
pauy will be offered for sale, there is 10
intention OF listing it on any exchange.
In this particular the new company will
follow out to a certain extent the eX-
cluslveness which has always mark I'd the
progress and management of harvester
cc:'.rnries. The :;-iaeral p, ice Of harvest
ar> and binders will be raised to Slc5 CT
the:eatcuts. Last year one or two Of the
tis,:.s IN the combine sold these machines
fer less than $1O0.
1t is figured that the earnings of the new
concern for the initial year, ending Sept.
J., 1908, will be in excess of 40 per cent on
the capital stock, taking the business of
all companies for the previous year as a
basis. The intention at present is to pay
II per cent annually and the balance over
and above dividends will go into the sur
plus.
In it's financial aspect the company is
the strongest corporation in the United
States. Plans for conducting the bust
ness on economical lines are already UNI
der way In it's general agents. depart
ment the force will be reduced from 800
to Is, effecting a saving of at least $780,
600 annually. The new concern has little
to fear in the way of opposition. It con-
trolls the right on harvesting patents,
which will not expire for many years.
The reason for acquisition of the
Milwaukee plant was principally in
valuable patents controlled by it. At
present the companies interested are ap-
larently acting Independently.

A BILLION DOLLARS
Total Mineral Product of the Coun.
try for a Year.

Washington, Oct. 22.-The annual VOL
ume on the mineral resources of the
United States for 1901 prepared by DIR.
David 7. Day Of the geological survey,
has been sent to press and will. be issued
soon. An interesting feature of the re-
port is a compilation Of statistics show
ing the number of working days lost in
strikes in the coal industry. These figures
include the present year and are brought
up to date The total number of days
lost for the present year is placed at
20,000,O00 days, compared with 1873, 0S:
days in 1901, 4,s7s, 1o2 in 1900 and 2,124, 154
in 1899.
The report places the total mineral
product Of the country for the year at
81, 086 $3.50 a gain of little more than
2 per cent over the production of 1900.
AS heretofore, iron and coal are shown
to be the most important of our mineral
products. The value of iron in 1901 was
$242,174, 900, as compared with $3.50, 944, 900
in 1900, and the value of coal was $348, .
910,469, as compared with $306, 671 1854 in
1900.
The value of fuels increased from $780,
359,351 In 1900 to SAP, 1904 in 1901
Every variety Of fuel increased in value
except petroleum, which showed an in
crease In quantity of 5,76S,665 barrels, but
a. decline in value of $9.571;97S, due to the
less valuable character Of the Increased
product of the new petroleum fields as
compared with the older fields. Anthra-
cite coal increased 9,021, 207 long tons in
output and $26, 746, 1859 in value

woman and her relation to society, but
it has remained for Japanese student
of Western ways and manners to sum
up In a word that subtle influence I'M
derlying the social organization which
has hitherto defied analysis. TO
evolve a phrase says a writer in the
January Era, that should take it's
place in the wonld's literature as one
of the few concise andSeompletely ex-
pressive epithets.g Social glue de-
scribes a distinguishing characteristic
of the gentler sex so thoroughly that
it would seem that no further search
is needed for the mot sjuste." Beside
the pregnant sense of social glue"
