MINING DIVIDENDS.
Eor Nine Months Ending September 30
Tbcy Amounted to $1)6,851,207.
Judging from reMirtH received from
American mining and metallurgical
companies, the dividend payments this
year will be Homewhat lens than 11)01,
owing to two reasons. First: The fall
in market prices of copper and silver,
which has compelled some of the big
gest mining companies to reduce their
dividends. Secend: The consolidation
of protit pitying mines in Colorado, Utah
and South Dakota, which has not les
sened the number of companies making
regular payments, but in some instances
has cut tlio dividend rnto to conform
with the increased capital stuck, and al
so to defray the. extra expense in devel
oping certain of the constituent prop
erties.
During the nine mouths ending Sep
t Jinber 30th, the dividend disbursements
of 147 American mining and metallurgi
cal companies amounted to the large, to
tal of fl 10,851 ,'J07.
Tho bulk of these dividends has been
contributed by the big industrial com
binations, which control a large part of
the outllt of raw material used in their
manufactures.
The best paying quarter was from
January to March, when dividends ag
gregated $48,0:n,tl7:i. The smallest dis
bursements were made between July

and September, amounting to only 30,
885.0311. This difference is partly ac
counted for by tho heavy division of
profits in the tirst quarter from 1001
earnings; while the payments in the
third quarter were much affected by the
small earnings in the (list six months of
this year. There havo been a number
of now companies added to tho list.
