RISE SEEN DUE

NEW YORK, March 2 G.N.SO.
The possibility of a rise in the
Federal Reserve Bank of New

noon was widely mentioned in
local banking circles this morn
ing. The current rate is 212 per
cent.
The official call loan rate on
the New York Stock Exchange

this morning, an increase of 1a
per cent over yesterday and the
highest rate since July 6, 1882.

excess of earnings over dividend
requirements, surplus, owing to

PROFIT DROP

The audited annual report of
the Borden company and subsidi-
aries shows sales in 1882 amount
ed to $212, ,348,871, compared with
284,586,877 in 1881.
Net income in 1882, after all
charges and taxes, was ST ,524 ,489,
which was 3.54 per cent of sales
and equal to Sill per share or
the 4,396,754 shares of the capital
stock outstanding on December
81, 1882. Net income in the pre-
vious year was $16,088, ,828.88, or
1886 per share on 1895 ,281 shares
outstanding at the end of that
year.
The decrease in sales and net
income is attributed to general
conditions prevailing throughout
the year and the further drastic
liquidation of dairy product val
ues, with accompanying market
chaos.
Ratio of current assets to cur
rent liabilities increased during
the year to $4.72 to the dollar,
comparing with a ratio of $3.91 to
the dollar in the previous year.
