may be explained In part by the fact that
the largest producing company had reduced
its capital by about one-half not long prior
to the census year, bat has since restored
to the present sto ckh oiders the amount thus
mulcted, on account of the reparation of
losses and the steady earning Of a profitable
income. 1t has been asserted in economic
circles that electrical development has done
its share in the creation OF "securities''

Importance Of the Dynamo.

Up to the period Of dynamo DEVELOPMENT
and utilization electrical manufacture de-
pended for its resources Of current upon
primary batteries. When it is considered
that the zinc consumed in a battery costs
about twenty-five times as much as the
coal burned under a boiler, some Of the
conditions will be perceived; for with the
battery there is no possible production Of
current economically, either in great vol
ume or at high pressure. With the perfec-
ton Of the dynamo, and its production as
an ordinary piece Of manufa ctured appara-
being, the transition being SO sharp and
sensa tional that in the figures Of the pres
ent report, covering 500, COO 900 of appara-
tus, at least rs per cent of the manufacture
ed goods belong in classes that were un-
available to the public in the days of the
cessible If 1t were still the sole source of
current supply
Number Of Establishments.
In 1900 there were $50 establishments.
with capital invested of $83, 13O943, and
with a total output, including custom work
and repairing. of $91, 34S, $50. In the course
of the investigation the returns Of 7I2 es-
Establishments were considered, all of which
embraced some product Of an electrical
nature, bringing the value of such product
up to an apparent total Of $104 73S 719. The
supplementary concerns thus noted have
not, however, been included. nor their out
put, as there would be serious difficulty in
apportioning to electricity the part Of CAPT

Patents Issued.


The status or activity of a manufacturing
industry may be fairly gagged as to pro-
gressiveness by the number of patents
issued in regard to it's processes. Viewed
from this standpoint, the electrical arts are
seen to have maintained for fifty years
past, and particularly during the last quar-
ter OF a century, steady stream Of new
and radical ideas, demanding the protcc-
ton Of the United States patent Office Tor
the investments of capital during those
earlier years Of effort required to reduce a
crude primitive device to a perfected piece
OF apparatus. According to the interesting
report Of Mr.. ]. S. Seymour. United States
commissioner Of patents, for the year end
ing December 81. 1895. it would appear that
in the class Of electrical generation up to
that time 3.117 patents had been issued in
period Of twenty-five years. In the class
Of electric railways, 2,O1O patents had been
issued: In that of motive power. 1,1S3: n
electric lighting, 1922; in telegraphy. 3,205;
In telephony. 2.459; in electrical signaling
1884. 1t would thus appear that in these
seven principal classes 1859 patents have
been taken out in a period of twenty-five
years. These classes are, however, not en-
tirey comprehensive of electrical work,
which ramifies into so many other branches
of industry
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1902-08-28
Activity Of Inventors.

1t would appear from the later records
of patents issued in the more specific cleo
trlcal classes that during the four and
half years from 1896 to June 80, 1900, no
fewer than 6.796 patents were issued. evil
dencing great rise in the activity with
which electrical inventors were still prose-
cutting their endeavors in these newer fields
of discovery and application. 1t is also in
teresting in this connection to note that
electrical inventors are at the head of the
list Of those who had taken out more than
100 patents during the years 1S71-1S&5 in
elusive. Thomas A. Edison being credited
with III and Elihu Thomson with 1914, these
two heading the list of the twenty-five
most prolific inventors in all fields. Others
OF great activity are enumerated as fol-
lows: Edward Weston. 274; Charles E.
Scribner. 24S; Charles ]. Van DepoeIe. 244
Rudolph M. Hunter, 22s: Rudolf Eicke-
meyer, 1853; Hiram S. Maxim 1871; and Sid
ney H. Short, Ill. These are but typical
however, Of the work being carried on. for
since the period named other men have
come to the front in the electrical field I'M

Per Capita Investment.


The amount of money spent each year by
each member of the community for the
necessities of life and it's luxuries affords
measure Of the extent to which the various
arts and industries rank in Importance in
promoting the comfort and welfare of the
public. 1t would seem, from the foregoing
investigation, as well as from the statistics
that follow that the average annual ex-
penditure on electricity in the United States
for each individ lal Of a population not far
from 100000 was 81. OF this amount
about LBS per head would represent the
demand for electric apparatus and supplies
the income of the electric traction COM
panies would reach not less than 81 per
head. while that from electric lighting
would reach about $50. The returns avail
able would also indicate that not less than
IS cents per head would represent the ex-
penditure on telephone service, and so cents
per head the outlay for telegraph. fire
alarms and kindred work. These values
which are conservatively put, are, however
rapidly increasing. At least one expIana-
tion Of the rapid rise of the United States
to Its present position in international af-
fairs and among the manufa cturing ma
tons may be found in this manifest WILL
ingness Of it's people to pay as much for
electricity as for bread

No Excessive capitalization.

Statistics on electrical apparatus and sup

been analysed and summarized by Mr..
Thomas Commerford Martin under the d.
rection Of Mr.. S. N. D. North, and pub
lished In bulletin form. This Is the first
report made at any census the subject
or electrical apparatus and supplies. The
industry is of comparatively recent origin,
and some idea Of its rapid development may
be had from a statement of the value of
products reported at the censuses of 1850,
1880 and 1900, which were S2,655, 036, 49,,
114.714 and S91, 34S, $50, respectively. Great,
however, as has been this advance in value
Of products, no figures can convey an ade-
quate idea Of the many and constantly in
creasing uses to which electricity is put by
means of the apparatus which is here so
eXhaustively described.
Capital Invested.
The reports show a capital Of SS3l30 943
invested in the manufacture of electrical
apparatus and supplies. This sum repre-
sents the value Of land, buildings, ma
chinery, tools and implements, and the live
capital utilized, but does not include the
capital stock Of any of the manufacturing
corporations. The value of the products is
returned at sol ,34S, $50, to produce which
involved an outlay of 81, 563, 112 for salaries
Of officials, clerks, etc; S2O19O344 for
wages; $6,7SS,314 for miscellaneous ex-
penses, including rent, taxes etc, and SiS,-
916.44O for materials used, mill supplies
freight and fuel. 1t is not to be assumed
however, that the difference between the
aggregate of these sums and the value of
the products is In any sense indicative of
the profits in the manufacture of the prod
ucts during the census year. The census
schedule takes no cogniZance Of the cost of
selling manufactured articles, or Of inter-
est on capital invested or of the mercan-
tile losses incurred in the business, or of
depreciation in plant. The value of the prod
uct given is the value as obtained or fixed
at the shop or factory.

the opening of the Minnesota state fair
Of 1902, preliminary work looking to the

ton has been paid to arrangements for

dali says that the plans for the beef and
dairy cattle exhibits grow on his hands
every day and that there is now no a,les-
ton but that these classes will surpass
IN interest and numbers anything yet
seen in the northwestern anywhere else
for that matter. In beef strains there
will be national displays by the Hereford
and Shcrthorn Breeders associations
while the Aberdeen Angus association
will enlarge it's premiums by generous
additions to the regular fair premium
schedule. In dairy breeds the National
Holstein Freisian Breeders association
will put up 81, 100 in premiums which will
have the effect OF getting out fine dis=
