Grating revenues advanced from ST.
66l 100000 to 1928, 100000. The per.
centage of taxation to gross revenues
advanced from 95 per cent to 1876
per cent. The greatest problem the
public utility companies have today
is Increased State and local taxes.
The decline in electric rates has af-
fected the revenues of the manufac-
tured gas industry. The electric COM
panies have taken advantage Of the
situation to popularize the use of cleo
trlclty for heating, cooking and other
purposes in which gas was formerly
used.
Billions Invested.
1t is estimated that between $l3,-
000,000000 and $4,000 900 900 is in
vested in the public utility industry
and that well over so per cent of this
amount is represented by bonds
Many corporations are planning to re-
fund their bonds, reducing their fixed
charges to offset increased taxation.
While the public utility companies
have not reduced their working forces
to any marked extent since 1898, the
average wage scale is lower.
AS for the electrical equipment in.
dustry, it experienced real boom in
1885, and prospects for the current
year are bright. The sale of ! 800 OoO
electric refrigerators last year set a
new high record, Air conditioning
made further strides, particularly in
theaters and restaurants, and the sales
OF electrical appliances generally in
creased.

WINNIPEG, February 22.-Wheat
prices generally sailed in a narrow
channel today although there was
little apparent change in the trading
weather. At the close of a short
week end session prices ruled A-as
higher with May at 83a, July, S45s,
and October, 831a cents.
1t was typical week end session.
With the exception of scattered buy
ing for foreign account the pit re-
fected the holiday atmosphere in the
United States and Argentine. Dis
position of wheat for export ac-
counted for 250,o0O bushels.
The market took its cue from
Liverpool where closing prices ranged
between 1s-%s higher. The higher
level was reached following cabled
information that Australian offers at
the English seaport we're firmer.

worlds total of raw silk, is expert
menting to find new uses for material
In 1880, when the raw silk market
was groaning beneath the load Of
overproduction, Japan took $4,000
bales off the market. There are still
about 10000 bales left in the hands
of the japanese government. which
has pledged itself not to feed the
surplus out through regular trade
channels.
Japan is developing new markets
for the raw material in countries like
India and Brazil, where cotton was
once supreme. The government is
also conducting a campaign to make
the people at home use silk-even for
mems clothes. It is conducting tests
in search of new fabrics.
Other nations are affected by the
decline in silk prices, but none as
greatly as Japan. Chinese raw silk
forms by far the major portion Of
non-Japanese production. but raw silk
is also produced in France, italy,
Russia and the Levant.

for Government obligations, espe-
cially for the long-term issues.
The outlook for interest rates grows
more discouraging to the investor
with idle funds. Some weeks ago
the Pennsylvania Railroad established
a new record for equipment trust GER
tiflcates when it sold an issue OIL
the 2si per cent coupon. Now it is
proposed to refund New York Edi-
son Co. 5 per cent bonds at a 81
per cent rate. The occasion for this
is that most of the earlier 31a per
cent loans have established such high
premiums over par that to finance
with a similar coupon is no longer
feasible. Still 34 per cent rate is
not niggardly when compared with
the return on popular dividend-pay-
ing stocks now selling at 20 to 25
times their earnings.
