THE CHEAT OF OVERCAPITALIZA TION. (Continued from page 5.) improvement you can make the public itself hold the string. In 1899 when,Judge Moore was try ing to raise the money to buy out Carnegie it was deemed advisable to give certain capitalists an interior glimpse of the steel trade. President Schwab of the Carnegie Company wrote: “I know positively that England can not produce pig iron at actual cost for less than $11.50 a ton and cannot put pig iron into a rail with most efficient works for less than $7.50 a ton. This would make rails at net cost to them of $19....We can make rails for less than sl2 a ton, leaving a nice margin on foreign business.

But there has been no reduction in cost to the con sumer. Year after year the rail pool has held the price of that staple prod uct firmly at S2B a ton. From 1901 to 1906 domestic pro duction of pig iron increased 9,500,000 tons, or sixty per cent. This might cheapen the cost of production, but the selling price of pig iron has increased about twenty-five per cent.

Last year (1906) the Trust’s net profits “after deducting the cost of ordinary repairs, renewals, and main tenance of plants, and interest on bonds and fixed charges of subsidiary companies,” amounted to $156,619,111. It could have paid a dividend of twen ty per cent on that half-million bogus common stock. That it chose to pay only two per cent and to spend the remainder in building new plants does not in the least alter the proposition. This course, in fact, is simply the shrewdest way of bolstering up the bo gus stock. The bolstering is mighty expensive to the public. But it must be done. Otherwise thousands of more or less innocent persons who have bought the spurious stuff; banks that have lent money on it, and the inevitable cue of “widows and orphans” will suf fer. But “shoving the queer,” by no means a specialty of the “industrials,” is practiced almost as extensively and with rather more uniform success in tho railroad field. 1 An lowa girl knocked down and cap tured a footpad.
