capitalization of 19,597,S19. Here
is a great total of almost 500 trusts,
with capitalization close to four
teen billion of dollars. When we add
to these figures the sum total of
railroad securities at par lin 1901,
S1l,6SS, ,09D, we find that our cor
porate investments represents close
to twenty-five billions of dollars.
1t is interesting to look over the
list of trusts and mark the varied
industries conducted after the mod
ern method of production. 1t would
be tlresome to read Il complete emu
meration; but, as it is usually only
half dozen great corporations that
the majority of people call to mind
when trusts" are referred to, we
think it may be worth while to bring
to notice few of the many others
that come under this head We all have
heard of the Standard Oil, Copper,
Steel, Anthracite Coal, Beef, Sugar,
and Tobacco Trusts, but not very
81
much concerning the lesser combina-
tions. And some of these lesser"
ones represent an enormous amount
of capital, individually up into the
tens of millions. Great industrial
trusts control the manufacture of
air-brakes, auto-trucks, asphalt, agri-
cultural chemicals; bridges, books,
brass, bicycles, brooms, breweries,
biscuits, baking powder, buttons, are
all manipulated by trusts, and
canned goods, chemicals, cement,
cereals, cotton, cotton oil con-
densed milk, celluloid, corn prod
ucts, candy, caskets, compressed air,
these have trusts back of them.
Large scale production turns out
drugs and docks; combines control
fruit products. groceries. foundries,
and the manufacture of furniture,
