A Ial Cooke story.

Ellis Paxson Oberholtzer's readable
and valuable papers in The Century on
Jay Cooke and the Financiering Of the
Civil War will treat in the January
number of facts and incidents con-
nected with the "seven-thirty loans"
the five per cent ten-forty Loan" etc.
Verbally and through his newspaper
agencies, DIR. Oberholtzer relates, Jay
Cooke all this time steadily resisted
the tendency to buy, board and make
fictitious values for gold. One day a
thrifty old Pennsylvania German store
keeper came TO town to invest some
money and visited the government loan
agent

Exports Of Meat and Dairy Products

and loss in expectation of breadstuffs
seem to be DUE in part, to the dispo-
sition of the American farmer to trans
form his corn into meat before send
ing it abroad The total quantity of
corn exported, as shown by the figures
of the bureau of statistics of the de-
partment of commerce and labor, was,
in 1897, $177, 100000 bushels; in 1898,
200, 900, 900; in 1900, 209,O00,000 while
from that date the total steadily de-
clned, having been below 100,000,000
bushels in each fiscal year until 1906,
when the total was 11700O,00O, and in
the calendar year seems likely to be
but about 100,000,OOO bushels
This reduction in the exports of corn
since 1897 seems to be due to dispo-
sition on the part of the producers to
turn this large and valuable crop
into meats before exporting. The
corn crop of 1901, 1902. 1908, 1904 and
1906 averaged larger than that of the
years 1897 TO 1901, when the exports
were larger than those of more recent
years. The prices at which it might
be exported have been much higher
in recent years than formerly, the ay-
erage export price per bushel In 1906
being 52.6 cents per bushel, while
the average export price in 1897
was 81 cents per bushel; in 1898, 36
cents; in 1899, S6 cents; in 1900, Al
cents; in 1901, AS cents. Thus the av-
erage price per bushel in the five years
of high expectation was but one-half
that Of the year 1906, when exports of
corn were far below those of the years
1S97-1901 The falling off in exports
Of corn cannot therefore be looked
upon as a reduction in foreign demand.
since the increased price which foreign
buyers are now willing to pay indi-
Gates that the popularity of American
corn in foreign markets has not abated.
| The caues of the reduction in expor-
tation must therefore be looked for at
home rather than in foreign demand,
and this cause at home seems 70 lie
| In the disposition to transform the corn
| into meat before sending 1t abroad.
This theory is supported by the fact
that the meat expectations have con-
stantly grown during the time in which
| the corn expectations have fallen off.
The fact that the expectation Of meat
and dairy products has increased from
$l33 100000 in 1896 TO $211,0o0,O00 in
1906, although the consuming popula-
ton at home has greatly increased
meantime and that the corn crop
available for expectation also greatly
| increased, seems to justify the conclu-
sion that the corn lis being exported

washington, Dec. 20.-More than
$3.50, 100000 worth of meat and dairy
products will have passed out of the
United States into the markets of 9th
er parts of the world in the year end
ing with the present month. This
enormous total of s25OyO0O,OOO worth of
meat and dairy products is made up
of little over $200,000,000 worth of
meats, $35, 900, 900 worth of cattle. and
about $10,000,000 worth of butter
cheese and milk. The ten months
record already announced by the bu
reau of statistics of the department of
commerce and labor shows exporta-
tons of meat and meat products to
the value of $172,000,000, against $147,-
100000 in the corresponding period
of last year, a gain of $25,O00,000 in
the ten months ending with October,
1906, over the corresponding months
of 1905, and a gain of about $40,-
000,00 over those of the corresponding
months Of 1904 The live cattle ex-
ported in the ten months ending with
October, 1906, amounted to $32, 100000
in value, and the dairy products ex-
ported to about $8,000,000.
No feature of the export trade in ag-
ricultural products has shown more
steady and rapid growth than that of
meat and dairy products. The total
value of meat and dairy products ex-
ported in the fiscal year 1895 was
$780,, 200, 900, and in the fiscal year
1906 was $211.O00,O00, an increase Of
about 60 per cent during the decade;
while the figures for the calendar year
1906 seem likely to be about the same
as those for the fiscal year, basing the
estimate upon the recorded figures OF
the ten months ending with October.
This Increase Of so per cent in the
expectation of meat and dairy products
during the decade Is the more inter-
esting and remarkable in view of the
fact that the expectation of other
forms Of food has shown but little in
/ crease during that period. The prin-
cipal forms of foodstuffs exported from
| the United States are breadstuffs and
meats. Exports Of meat, including
dairy products, as above indicated
have shown steady upward move
ment during the past ten years ant
| increased so per cent in value since
/ 1896 Breadstuffs. on the contrary

Spending a Billion Dollars
for New York's Improvements

New York, Dec. 2O.--Is New York
TUNNEL mad? HAS some new
microbe lurking in the subway in
fected the whole city with a desire
for underground travel? Certain it is
that never before has such a stream
of gold been poured forth for under
ground borrowings. On three sides
of the city human moles are madly
digging on new tunnels at a cost which
is almost staggering, totalling not
millions but hundreds of millions.
The Pennsylvania tunnels will cost
$125, 100000. Then there is the Cort-
landt street tunnel on which $4,000
600 will be expended, the Morton
street tunnel costing $16,000,000, the
Battery tunnel at mere $8,000,0O0,
and the Steinway tunnel at $5,5OO,OOO.
In fact, there should be tunnels
enough for all at prices to meet any
pocketbook When they are completed
New York will lay claim to the title
of the greatest tunnel city in the
world. But it is not only in under
ground work that the city is spend
ing millions. Altogether billion
dollars is being invested in improve

Stress Of Present Prosperity.

Boston Transcript: Western money
is not coming east 50 early as usual
this year, it is said, because the har-
vested crops are not reaching their
markets on time, and the reason for
that lies in the car shortage. The
congestion of freight traffic thus af-
fects the money rates Of eastern CEN
tiers and that in turn Is holding back
bond issues and compelling various
roads of excellent credit to get along
on short term loans, at relatively high
rates of interest. The moment there
is the slightest relaxation in the pres
ent tension an amount of new rail-
road building along the lines indicated
such as the country has never before
seen may be expected

ments, a fact which naturally causes |
Father Knickerbocker to be much in
terested in things financial. The GEN
eral Electric Co. is spending 100000
600 on an extension, the New Haven
railroad, $10,000,000 on identification,
the New York Central $9O00O,O0O on
various improvements, including the
rebuilding Of the Grand Central sta

In addition to the Flatiron, New York
is to have another Enthusiastically
named building. for the new structure
at the corner of Wall street and
Broadway has already been christ
ened the Chimney. AS in the case of
the Flatiron, the owners selected
conventional name, but the new one
has already superseded it. The
Chimney very evidently deserves it's
name. For it's height it is the slen-
derest building in New York, the piece
of ground on which it stands being al
most minute, and as it is built of
brick it preserves the smile to a
striking degree, as it towers into the
air like gigantic chimney. Through
it, say those who have suffered, will
ascend the smoke of the money which
is burned in the street every day. Wall
street, indeed, is undergoing meta
morphosis. Once the fashionable
street of little old New York, when the
city was little but not old, it promises
soon to be lined with skyscrapers,
which it has so far fairly well escaped.
In addition to the chimney, only a
block or two away, the new twenty
| five story building of the Trust COM
pany of America is nearing completion.
Besides being the tallest building in
| the district, it will contain the hand
soonest and most up-to-date banking
rooms in New York-which of course
means in the whole United States.
| Curiously enough, the Trust company's
new home stands on the site of the
original stock exchange, obliteTating,
as it were, one more reminder of days
gone by.
