The Mercantile und Financial
Tlmofl, of New York, tmyH:
During the past thirty dayi this
publication hat) received quite a num
ber of Inquiries from Its readers,
asking our opinion regardus an In
vestment In "United Wireless." Not
but 11 k Huinclontly conversant with the
subject to Intelligently ad vine our
correspondents, and following our In
variable rule of Instituting a thor
ough Investigation before condemn
ing or recommending an enterprise,
th Editor of the Mercantile and Fin
ancial Times called at the genernl of
fices of the United Wireless Tele
graph Company, nt 42 Hroadway,
New York City.
The president of tho United Com
pany, Colonel C. C. Wilson, met our
Inquiry fairly,- and, by tho exercise
of his authority, made It possible for
Mr. Adams, our managing editor, to
make a most thorough investigation
and to obtain accurate Information.
Tho bookB of the company were open
to our oxpert accountant, tho com
pany's contracts, its factories, its ata
tluns with their file of puld commer
cial messages everything, except
the experimental department, whore
new Improvements are conceived and
worked out all was revoaled to sup
ply facts from our judgment. It wap
an unusual procedure, compared to
the reception we somutlmes exper
ience In our. Investigations, but we
learned that the same privileges are
extended to a committee of any body
of Its shareholders, a fact which au
gurs well for the futuro succumb of
the company.
Tills Is one of tho most Interesting
stories this paper has published In 8
doc rule. We regret that lack of
space prevents us frnin giving any
thing more than tho bare facts of the
present condition of tho company and
to touch only lightly on Its enormous
possibilities for its future.
On June 14, 11)08, the New York
Tribune, considered to he the most
conservative financial authority
among all of New York's dally pap
ers, published an article on the "Mar
velous Developments In the Realm of
New Inventions," In speaking of
the WlreleBH Telegraph and Its stock
possibilities, tho writer had this to
say:
"When It is recalled that ono hun
dred dollars invested in the Hell
Telephone at Its Inclpleucy has paid
$201,000 In dividends, the marvelous
possibilities of the wireless loom up
like the sun ou a clear June morning.
With wireless bounding luto univer
sal use, over land and sea, with com
paratively little cost of maintenance
and possibilities beyond tho most ex
travagant dreams of man, United
Wireless presents tho greatest op
portunity for safe, sensible and log
ical Investment, with better founded
reasons for yielding Urge return
than any other stock now before the
public."
In our Investigations of the United
Company. Hs present and its future
loBslhllltles. we havo no hesitation
In stating that tho opinion expressed
by the Tribune's writer is more than
justified by facts, as Is shown by
the following con denned statement;
United Wln'lcMfi Telegraph Company.
Tho United Wireless Telegraph
Company was Incorporated February
14, 107, under the Iiiwh of Maine,
with a cnpltat of $20,11110,000 1 0.
000.000 of which is seven per cent
Preferred Participating stock and
$10,000,000 of which Is Common
stock. Its officers nd directors are
all shareholders who have invested
their money In the Wireless Tele
graph. There Is no promotion stock.
The assets of other companies were
purchased and combined luto one sys
tem and the company began com
mercial operation during October.
1907.. Within the first year of actual
commercial operation the United
Company has succeeded In establish
ing Its buslneMg on a net profit basis;
has purchased and controls over one
hundred valuable patents; has over
one hundred boats equipped with the
system; has thirty-seven bind sta
tions established and In operation
has three well equipped factories; ttf
endorsed by many governments
throughout the world through pur
chase and ussge of Its Apparatus;
Is established on :u steamship lines;
has a corps of wireless experts who
are recognized to be the best In the
world; and. maintains an established
position which could only be equal
led by years of careful upbuilding
and au expenditure of not lens Um&
one and one-half million dollnrs; un
der the most advantageous condition
Th United Company Is the "grist
fn mill" of years of mental
and physical labor backed by the ex
pertlture of flllions of dollars in
actual r. Q
Its Ctomnuuiiig PottlTion to Ik Main
talnetl.
The United Company now owns or
controls the moat efficient und lat
est Improved appurutus of uuy wire
less system lu the world. Improve
ments will continue to be made, and
it is toaacnnble to expect that the
company's own experts will be the
foremost iu making such Improve
ments; all of which belong to the
company's assets. The United Com
pany offers a ready market for any
Improvement which might be made
by others, und It Is the purpose of
Us o Ulcers to purchase such Improve
ments us it needs, whenever they are
made, und funds are already provided
for this purpose. History records
that the company which become en
trenched and successful when de
veloping a new discovery has been
able to mnlutaln Its position and
make largo profits for Its sharehold
ers. It seems logical that the United
Company should progress rapidly, ex
tend solidly and be able to maintain
Its control of wireless development
to have aeomplished so well under
the most difficult conditions of the
past twelve months augurs well for
the future.
AMsetH.
The assets of the United Company
consists of patents, good-will, con
tracts, stations, boat equipments,
factories, securities of other corpora
tions, cash, hills receivable, and treas
ury stock, nil of which totul over
$20,000,000, and Is estimated now
to he worth (bused on future earn
ing capacity) over thirty million dol
lars. Tho stock which shall be sold
from Its treasury holdings, to extend
tho company's operations is expected
not to exceed 100,000 shares, or five
per cent of Its entire cupltal; this
amount Is believed to be sufllclent to
supply all the additional capital ever
needed by the company. This treas
ury stock Is offered for sale for the
reason that It seems best to dispose
of such small portion of its stock and
he able to extend moro rapidly lhan
might bo possible from the use of the
iperatlon profits alone, and also to
nimble tho company to more quickly
pay dividends on its stock.
Dividends.
Dividends will be paid as soon as
tho shareholders of the company vote
rhat It is to tho interest of the share
holders for tho directors to declare a
llvldend on Its outstanding stock. At
he annual meeting In January, liMMl,
tho inntter will be brought before
'he shareholders and decision made
vhether a dividend may be paid out
f the earnings from the com putty's
Mislness during 190K.
Future 1'rotltn.
Future profits will depend entirely
n the development of (he company's
tuslncss. Tho wireless field offers
greater opportunities for large pro
its than any discovery made by mnn
ip to the present time. With the
able supplanted by wireless tele
graph and such business extended to
nclude the thousands of Islands not
low connected by cable; with the
ens of thousands of ships on the seas
Hj nipped and kept In constant com
nunleution with the wireless tele
:raph; with the telegraph business
in laud done with the wireless en
Irely and the enormous expense of
Maintaining poles and wires done

planted by the Unlted's Wireless
Telephone; with the railway trains

iinvlng trains; with the police call,
ire alarm, burglar alarm, light-house
tonger slgnnl service, etc., etc., nnd
nnumerable other services to be, lu
hue, done by wireless, who can say
hat the profits of the one success

United Company. The cable com

were It not necessary for them to set

stations, one nt Honolulu and one nt

less than $10,000 were in continuous
direct communication for three and
