New York, September H-(Special)
Although the estimate is a crude and
somewhat rough one, nevertheless 1t is
surmised that the United States will have
at the end of this calendar year approx
imateiy $4,000, 900 of new capital. This
estimate is made upon the presumable
continuation of our exports for the rest
of the present calendar year. 1t also in
cludes the enormous amount gold
which we have received, chiefly from
England, almost all of it coming by way
of Canada. 1t is spoken of as a some
what curious fact that the United States
has received from Canada since January
l gold which is $7,000,000 in excess of the
British loan recently negotiated in the
United States, and we had received by
mid-August from all parts of the world
since January / nearly $2S5, 100000 in gold.
since mid-August, we have received $780,,
100000, SO that the gross imports from
January l to September were nearly
1895, 100000 Almost all of the gold we
have exported was sent to Cuba, there
to be used in facilitating the perfecting of
the currency system of Cuba.
Since Congress enacted the so-called
eight-hour law. the question has fire.
quently been asked what the effect of
this statute upon capital investment is to
be. AS the law does not go into effect
until January 1, 1917. there may be no
noticeable immediate influence occasioned
by 1t upon capital investment But the
impression which commonly obtains Is
that should Congress or the interstate
commerce commission not provide some
means by which the increased expendi-
ture to the railroads occasioned by this
law can be secured then the law will
serve to make capital more and more
timid respecting investments in railroad
securities.
The eight-hour law is not likely to af-
feet investment in capital in industrial
properties, In fact, many of the indus
tries are investing part of the profits
they have secured on account of their
war orders in expansions of plants and
also In improvements of them. This II
noticeably the case with the Bethlehem
Steel company, all of whose large invest
ments of capital in expanding its plants,
especially in Chesapeake bay, are taken
out of earnings. There will be no i'm
pairment of capital invested in automo-
bile manufacture The uses to which
the self propelled car is now being puS
are SO many as to make a certain in
creased market for the output. 1t is
curious fact that while prices of commod-
tiles of all kinds, with single excep-
ton, have increased and SO greatly in
creased as to represent rs per cent of the
profits gained by industrials on the other
hand the automobile manufacturers are
on the whole decreasing the prices
charged for their cars. 1t is the one in
dustry in the United States in which de-
creases in prices have been announced
within few months.
