SUEZ CANAL FINANCES.
British Governments Good Income
From Its Investment.

The original capital of the Suez
Canal company, issued before 1870,
was 100000 shares at 500 francs each,
but these securities do not answer to
our definition either of stocks or bonds.
as they partake of the character of
both. Under the terms of the issue,
writes George w. Davis in letter to
Senator Morgan, there was condi-
ton that the shares could be redeemed
in certain proportions at stated periods
and that when redeemed they should
no longer be an interest bearing Sc
curity, but should continue to con-
stitute an asset to the original owner
of the shares to the extent that he
should participate in all surplus bene-
fits earned by the company; but the
interest provided by the statute-5 per
cent-stopped when the bond should
be called for redemption.
On December 81, 1904, there were
3S5,460 of these shares still outstand-
ing, and they continued to enjoy par
ticipation in the surplus benefits or
profits of the company. But the in
terest on the residue Of these bonds
had ceased; that is to say, on $4,000
shares. The other outstanding secur-
tiles Of the Suez Canal company are
bond issues, as follows: First, an
issue of 100000 shares at IS francs,
put on in order to take up unpaid cou-
pons on the original issue, this being
really to make good deficit arising
In the earlier years of the operation
Of the company, when it's revenues
were small. These bonds were entitled
to 5 per cent interest. and the value
of those still unredeemed and out
standing is 32,s1S,310 francs. OF the
loan of 1867-6S, which was in 300 franc
shares. there was still outstanding on
the date above specified SO, 16O, 600
francs. In 1871 a further issue of 100
franc shares was made. of which are
yet unpaid 1,678,O00 francs. A further
loan was made in 1880 at per cent,
of which 24,575.770 francs remained
unpaid at the end Of 1904.
In 1887 there was still further loan
negotiated at per cent, the aggre-
gate of which still remaining unre-
deemed Is 97,362.450 francs. The ag-
grgate of all these issues, stocks and
bonds. comes to 402, 295,130 francs, or
$50 100000. This is all of the capital

spirits at distillery set up and oper-
ated under the law and regulations
relating to fruit brandy distilleries.
A distillery at which tomato par
ings. pea hulls, banana parings, sugar
corn cobs, etc.. could be used in the
manufacture of distilled spirits, must
be constructed and operated under
the general law. Such distillery must
be constructed and operated under
the law and regulations under which
grain and molasses distilleries are now
constructed and operated.
1t Is possible that your brandy dis
tillery could be remodeled and certain
additions made to it. such as cistern
room, warehouses. etc. II this could
be done there would be no objection
to using 1t as a fruit brandy distillery
during the fruit season. and as dis
tilery for the manufacture of alcohol
for denaturing purposes during the
rest of the year.
You will understand, of course, that
the law relating to the construction
and operation of distilleries has not
been changed.
The denatured alcohol law simply
provides that alcohol manufactured in
the usual manner at registered dis
tilleries may be withdrawn from bond
free of tax for denaturing purposes,
and may be put upon the market after
1t has been SO denatured that it can
not be used as beverage or in the
manufacture of liquid medicinal pre-
parations.
In the construction Of a distillery
at which it is intended to produce al
cohol for denaturing purposes. regu-
latfons No. Z, issued by this depart
ment. will apply.
The regulations authorized by the
denatured alcohol law are now being
prepared, and they will be ready for
general distribution about October 1,
1906. These regulations will relate to
the manner of withdrawing alcohol
free of tax for denaturing purposes,
the denaturing of same, and the putting
of it upon the market. Respectfully,
Robert Williams, Jr.

These founders interest are divided
into 100000. and each now receives
about one-half as much annually as
the owners Of each original share re-

The last quotation for Suez Canal
stock that have seen is for May,
1906. when it was quoted at the Bourse
as 4.515 francs. AS the par value of
the snare Is 500 francs, you can readily
see that these securities are at 900
per cent premium.
The dividend paid last year on the
original shares was net of 141 francs
per share. This included the Is francs

as having ceased on certain of the
shares of the original stock that had
been called in and redeemed. The per
cent of dividend was therefore about

canal last year was 100000 net tons,
and the toll rate was ~ francs per
ton.
Under the terms Of the concession,
which extended for 80 years from the
date Of completion of the canal-1869
all the securities will have been re-
tired and cancelled on maturity, and
amortization provisions are arranged

Layton oets Ills offIoa.

President Roosevelt sent TO the Senate,
yesterday, the nomination Of DR.. Caleb
r. layton Of Delaware 10 be an auditor
Of the State and other departments. The
salary Of the Office is $1,000 per annum.
There is only one reason that can be as
signed for the President 'siavor 10 DR.. lay
ton, that is a desire TO help Senator Alice
in his campaign for reelection 10 the
Senate The demands Of the public ser
vice did not dictate the selection; Il was
a mere concession TO personal and par
tisan politics.
Having thus secured a public position
that will insure him living compensa-
tion, Layton will now have a free mind
TO devote TO tho great scheme Of
electing Addicks and Alice 70 the two
Senatorial vacancies which the next Legis-
lature will be called upon to fill. The
probabilities are that the scheme will
fail But that will not be President
Roosevelt's fault. He has done his part
to advance il by bestowing the Federal
patronage In Delaware freely and unre-
sorvedly upon Senator Alice, and par
ticularly in thus placing Allees chief
honchman, and head manager of the
a dicSs-Allee combination, in lucrative
office.

our Trade WIN Mesleo.

Trade Of the United States with Mexico
in the fiscal year 1905 aggregated in value
S92O0000O. In 1925 only % decade
earlier. 10 was but s3i 100000 and iu
1855. sis00O00o. practically doubling
IN tho decade ending with 1895 and tlob-
ling in the decade ending with 1905
The exchanges Of merchandise between
the United States and Mexico are more
nearly equally divided as to imports and
exports than is the case with most ,oun-
tries. In our trade with the countries Of
Europe for example our sport thereto
are twice as great a. uur importe there
from; in the case o1 Mexico. our exports
are no greater tnan our imports. Indeed,
in the fiscal year 1908 exports to Mexico
we're about Si,OOO.OOO less than imports
from that country, though IN 1904 tile
conditions we're reversed. exports TO
Mexico being about S2OOOOOO greater
than imports thereirom.
The United States participates moro
largely in the foreign trade oi Mexico
than does any other country Figures
compiled by the Department OF Commerce
and Labor through Us Bureau Of Statis-
ties, show that of Mexicos total imports
Of merchandise, SO per cent is drawn from
the United States, and of her total ex-
ports, II per cent is sent TO the United
States. Indeed, no other country, with
the single exception Of Canada, draws as
large a percentage of It's imports from the
United States as does Mexico; and no
other country except Cuba sends as large
a percentage Of its exports to the United
States a. does Mexico IN the case Of
Canada, go per cent Of the imports is
drawn from the United States. and in the
case of Cuba, 50 per cent Of the exports
is sent to the United States In Canada
the similarity of language, climate and
customs tends more strongly TO close
commercial relations than in Mexico,
while In the case Of Cuba the demand in
the United States for tropical products
coupled with the advantages given through
the reciprocity treaty suggests cmise
for the high percentage Of Cuban exports
to the United States. Proximity and
plentiful facilities for transportation Of
merchandise, mails and people stimulate
exchanges and have resulted in very
rapid growth Of the trade Of each Of these
three great communities with the United
States, especially during recent years.
