On Monday after- nocn and evening there was drunkenness and disorder of the most annoying types and on Tuesday morning it seemed as though there ‘was going to be a good deal more of the same trouble, Dut the establishment of a strong pro- ‘Yost guard put astop toevery public excess. Since thea I have not seen an intoxicated sol- Gier either in town or in the camp. Some of the officers still feel warm over publication of the news as to the behavior of saloon fre- quenters, but their comments today are com- paratively mild and innoxious. There is per- haps no reason why any one should attempt to ‘excuse # man who deliberately gots drunk, but there is a disposition here to look leniently on ‘the failing which was so apparent on Monday. ‘The men had been shut up inclose and crowded cars for many hours; hundreds of them were practically without food for nearly a day. ‘Then when they got here the strikers took them rignt into their arms and filled them Bp, im fact, there seemed fo be a + ed effort to make every man as drank &: possible. Beneath this combination of cir- cumstances and temptation an unfortunately large nomber of men fell. It would be difti- ult to biame any one for the calamity——for it is acalamity when the uniform of « soldier is dis- raced—and in Justice to the military author- ities it ehoald be stated that they believed the provisional arrengements made to keep order on Monday were sufficient. 1 not was soon made plain and the condition was speedily and satisfactorily met.

Perhaps it would all have been avoided had one man restrained himself when the impulse came to him to pat that very bald head.” If the enrio seekers continue to be as indus- frions during the next few days as they have Deen this week there will be nothing left of the | Durned and wreked barges in which the Pinker. tons came to Homestead.

In calling the bill up Mr. Hunton said: “The necessity for the bill is very great, and without it the revenues of the District which ought to arise from the granting of licenses to sell liquor will be lost, because the courts have decided that under the law to which this is an amendment all a person desiring a license to sell whisky or other spirituous liquors has to do is to pay or tender the amount assossed."’ Ashort discussion followed on the question of the power to remit penalties under the act.

DEAR SIR: We have examined the books and ar- counts of the Michigan Car Company, the Detroit Car Wheel Company, the Michigan Forge and Iron Company and the Detroit Pipeand Foundry Company for four years and nine months ending :W0th Septem- ber, 1891, and the Peninsulgr Car Company for tive years ending December 31, 1891. We find that the et profits of these companies as shown’ by the books for the above period, after charging all manufactur- ing and administration expenses, all repairs and re- newals, depreciation of plant and machinery and salaries, amount to @4,294,295.97, or a yearly aver- age profit of $902,373.33.

THE NET EARNINGS ARE THE RESULTS OB- TAINED AFTER CHARGING EACH YEAR TO OP- ERATING EXPENSES THE COST OF MANY AD- DITIONS AND IMPROVEMENTS WHICH HAVE BROUGHT THE PROPERTIES UP TO THEIR PRESENT CAPACITY, WHICH IS GREATER THAN AT ANY TIME IN THEIR HISTORY. THESE NET EARNINGS ARE SUFFICIENT TO PAY THE INTEREST ON THE BONDS, 8 PER! CENT PER ANNUM UPON THE PREFERRED STOCK, 12 PER CENT PER ANNUM UPON THE COMMON STOCK, CARRY $80,000 PER ANNUM | TO SURPLUS FUND, AS PROVIDED BY THE BY- LAWS OF THE COMPANY, AND LEAVE MORE THAN 4 PER CENT APPLICABLE TO FURTRER DIVIDENDS UPON THE COMMON STOCK. THE PRESENT NET EARNINGS CAN BE CLOSELY APPROXIMATED, ALL CARS MANU- FACTURED UP TO THE “PRESENT TIME AS WELL AS ALL NOW UNDER CONSTRUCTION BEING SOLD. A CAREFUL ESTIMATE SHOWS THAT THEY ARE AT THE RATE OF $1,100,000, WHICH, AFTER PAYING THE INTEREST UPON THE BONDS, 8 PER CENT UPON THE PRE- FERRED STOCK, 12 PER CENT ON THE COM- MON STOCK AND CARRYING $30,000 TO THE SURPLUS FUND, LEAVES 14 PER CENT APPLI- CABLE TO FURTHER DIVIDENDS UPON THE COMMON STOCK. ‘The officers of the several companies estimate that the consolidation thereof will result in an annual sa ing of more than $100,000in expense sccount alone. It is believed that the business will continue to in- crease in the future as it has inthe past. The coming year promises to be the largest in the history of the ‘company, more than nine thousand cars being sold in advance of thelr msna‘acture, and applications com- ing in in excess of the capacityof the combined works. ‘The total number of freig’t cars in use on the vari- ‘ous railroads in the United States is about one million ‘twohundred thousand, end from one hundred and ‘twenty thousand to one hundred and forty thousand mew cars are required annually to take the piace of ‘those which become worn out—the average life of « freight car being from eight toten years.
