STATE OUT MILLION A YEAR Alleged Cause Traffic in Can celled Stock Transfer Stamps. The State of New York, it was- said yes terday by. Clark Williams. State Controller, has been losing fully $1,000,000. a year through the purchase and sale of cancelled stock, transfer stamps by office boys and minor clerks, more than two thousand of whom, he estimates, have been debauched by the trafne. Which they have been led to enter through the inducements offered by rascally dealers in cancelled stamps. The profits of The boys have been very large. One. Mr. Williams said, had made $7,000 in less than two years; another had bought several small buildings in a cheap neighborhood, and still another invested the proceeds of his thievery in lots in New Jersey. The salaries of the boys averaged probably not more .an $3 a week, but many of them made $200 I month from their dealings in cancelled stamps. Th<» dealers, Mr. Williams explained. would pay the boys about 40 cents for a cancelled S2 stamp, and would sell a can- ! celled 12 stamp to a boy for $1 60. The boy would put a cancelled stamp on a certifi- \ cate of etock. instead of a new one, and 1 would remove a new tamp from a certifi- : cate after cancellation and turn ft over to j the dealer. ' The system had been nearly stopped. Mr. Williams said, and would have been ended before now except for the efforts of two men who succeeded in preventing the pas sage of the amendment to the stock trans fer tax law. One of these men had a per sonal reason for the continuance of the traffic, and the ether a personal reason for seeing him defeated, the Controller added.

Ore shipments have contributed largely toward income.

Denomination $1,000. Coupon bends with privilege of registration of principal or fully regis tered bonds, Interchangeable, United States Mortgage and Trust Company. Trustee. Application will be mad« to list these bonds on the Haw York Start C»h«|i For complete information regarding these bonds attention is called to the letter of Mr. George VT. Bacon. Presi dent of the Company, copies of which' will be furnished on request, and from which we stunrrkrize as follows: The Sierra and San Francisco Power Company owns and operates important electric water power properties near San Francisco, and a supplementary steam station in that city which will have a combined capacity as completed during the present year of 68,500 horsepower. This, with a small amount of power leased and additional steam equipment to be installed early * next year, will bring the total capacity up to 78,000 horsepower. The above bonds are secured by a first mortgage lien on the entire property owned by the Company, which will represent on completion of this year's construction a cash investment of more than 000,000.. to be increased by $1,000,000 which will be expended toward additional distributing and generating facilities. Against this total cash investment of over $11,000,000, crdy $6,500,000 First Mortgage bonds can be issued, and the conservative provisions of the Trust Deed insure the preservation of this equity. The company has made a contract extending to 1 953 with the United Railroads Company, which dees over 90 % of the street railway business of San Francisco, to supply the latter with all the power necessary for the operation of its system. This contract is deposited under the mort gage securing these bonds, and without taking into consideration other present earnings or income to be derived from the sale of current for general purposes throughout the territory served, the net income from this contract alone will more than provide for the interest on the First Mortgage bonds. San Francisco, the principal market for the Company's power, has a population of over 400.000, is the metropolis of the Pacific Coast and is rapidly growing in importance and population. . N.
