CHICAGO NEWS LETTER.

Chicago, January 4-The small rep

giant corporations whose New Years
dividend disbursements totaled S227.-
100000 as against $500, 900, 900 last
year was striking anomaly. for the
increase of dividends was due to the
nine billion dollar crop. The Nor

or has taken away from Chicago the
headquarters of many which neverthe

Indictment. comprises the one big in

of over 20 per cent on the business
done. The international Harvester
Company, since the western harvester
concerns were combined, has done an
annual gross business of less than $780,
600, 600 on which total the margin OF
profit has been steadily increasing
from 10 per cent in 1905 to 40 per cent
for the last year. The margin of 2.33
per cent on a gross business of $780,
900, 900 shown by the Armour & Com
pany annual report is a decided and
perhaps significant ntraSt to these
figures. For 1909 the Swift & Com
pany margin on turnover was less than

eastern companies from prosecution as
well as the profits of the big trusts
suggest how great must have been the
pressure upon the packers to join Wall
