man was given added impetus by the
startling discovery made by Marvyn
Scudder, the accountant employed by
the state to go over the books of the
larger milk companies in the city.
Counsel for the Borden Condensed
Milk company, controlling % per cent
Of the Sheffield Farms company, were
engaged preparing to meet the analy:
sis of Mr.. Scudder, who placed his
findings before Referee Brown.
Mr.. Scudder stated that the books OF

good WILL" which, the accountant
said, represented nothing tangible in
the way Of assets. On the company's
capitalization a dividend of 6 per cent
was paid on the preferred and 10 pei
cent paid on the common stock.
Mr.. Scudder said the books showed
surplus of $8,824,230, made in ten
years, and Special Deputy Attorney
General Coleman is preparing to ask
the company that if such profits are
possible with milk at cents a quart
what justification had the milk COM
panies for saying that they were los
ing money at that price and had to
raise the price to 9 cents quart?
Immense Dividends Paid.
Mr.. Scudder further showed that of
the Sheffield Farms company's cap
italization of 100000 over 100000
was for good will, etc." The Sheffield
company paid Is per cent dividends
last year and to date this year % per
cent on it's stock and it's surplus was
$962,672, nearly double the capital
stock.
Enormous profits were shown to
have been made by the Alexander
Campbell Milk company at cents a
quart.
The Campbell company supplies
more than 100000 bottles of milk
every month to Brooklyn families and
Mr.. Scudder showed that the net
profits of the company for the six
months ending last June were $49,880,
or at the rate of &c per cent on the
company's capital.
With the purpose of refuting the
assertion that the companies lost
money selling milk at cents a quart
Mr.. Scudder submitted figures from
the books of the Borden company
showing that during the nine months
of this year, ending Sept. 30 last, the
company made a clear profit of ST.
076,772 on fluid milk and cream in New
York and Chicago. This sum exceeds
by $322,947 the net profits in the same
branch Of the business in the CORE

seven Irish Conservatives. The sew

Their parents died and both Rich

employment at Fort Leavenworth as

of gaining a livelihood during the

Finally Richard G. gained promo

more.
