THE TIGER'S BIG INCOME ExpensesAro Also Vary Heavy,^Footing Up About Two Million^Dollars a Yaar Suicide on^the Decrease. /[Mil. half yearly general meeting of^^I* shareholders in the Casino com-^paiiy of Monte Carlo^or, as it^styles itself, the Kociete des liuins da^Mi r el ( cicle des Ktrangers, was held the^other day, says a Monte Carlo correspond^^ent of the London Haass, I cannot re^^produce the balance sheet, nor can I fur^^nish an exact report of the remarks of the^chairman of the company lo the share-^holdi rs. hut I may lay before your readers^the re-ult of an interview which 1 had^yesterday with that gentleman, together^w ith athaf details. Thesociety holds two meetings per^year, which are suiiininni d through this^form of notice, printed in its official or^^gan : Theshareholders of the Societie An-^onyme des Mains dc Mer el du ^ ercie des^Idrangcr- de Monaco art hereby sum^^moned In attend a general ordinary meet^^ing mi Wednesday, die L^.llh instant, at -'^o'clock in Ihe aflei ii 'on, at the olliees of^the society in Monaco. The general as^^sembly is composed of all holders of 2011^or more new shares in the society, who^have deposited their title deeds, or the re^^ceipts thereof, at the olliees not less than^eight days before the date of the meet^^ing. Theoriginal value of a new share here^mentioned was 600 francs; to day one is^worth 1,'iHO francs or 1,WW francs; an old^share was worth 100,ixjt) francs and during^the time of ^Pere^ lllaiir, the founder of^the society, its funds were centered ill^comparatively few hands, chiefly those of^his children, relatives ami friends. The^ever-present fear of interference with the^gambling, the gradual decline in the value^of property on the liivieru, led to a recon-^stitiition of the funds and a new issue of^'^!,' o shares at .'.un francs each, thus rais^^ing the capital of the society to 1X1,000,001)^francs. In this way the number of share^^holders was greatly augmented, bul, us^will be seen from die condition in the^ulsive notice, a voice in the council of^management remains at the same value niainrj.lll),000 francs. Hy far the^largi si nuinlK-r of the original shares are^still in the hands of the liluue family.^Pour years ago it was decided to establish^u reserve fund, uud since that times con^^tribution of nearly l,OU0,0UO francs has^bi-cn made to it each year, so that now it^amounts to GMflOO, or 1000,000 francs.^I was assured by the chairman^that it is intended to contribute^l,i^^i.iW) |H-r annum for the next twenty-^llnee years^ho takes it for granted thai^the Casino is on the same basis as the^Castle of Monaco at which period the^concession granted by the late Prinoe^Charles will expire, so that at the end of^that tune the society will be able lo^lupiidate its atfaiis and reimburse its^shareholders even with a profit. In addi^^tion there are buildings and land valued^a', various sums, from ^100,000 to 41,000,-^UO0, but these, I believe, liolotlg almost en^^tirely lo men: . rs of the 111am family. Now,as lo Ihe interest paid to share^^holders, bach share la'urs u llxi-d rule^of interest of francs per iNN (nfl^per cent, on the original value), payable^in November, while what is known as the^dividend is paid in May. In IM the^total revenue per share was I5.r^ francs;^last May it w as 1U) francs, anil 1 am assured^that if this season proves to Is- as g^sxl a^one as the last it will reach 170 francs or^1st) francs per share next May , or about^Xi per cent, upon the original value, and^about 10 per cent upon present value. Thecost of ihe extensive alterations^and the new wing just added has been^drawn from the profits of the last two^years. A number of the shares are now^in the market, in view of the increased^pros|KTity m trade a boom is being made^in their favor hy many holders w ho huve^bought in recent years. Doubtless they^thing this is a good opportunity for sell^^ing out liefore something liap|ieiiH lo de^^preciate their value. N aturally the owner^of such slock is tilled with fear continu^^ally. The price now being asked for a^dO share is uii, last week it was ilim.next^week they say it will !^' 4'eO. Thetotal un nine annually from the^tables is about :M,0tK),UU0 francs or ^N)0,-^A roulette laid, show's all uveruge^dally profit of from X'-MO to i.'JUO.though a^reckless player putting down maximum^stakes will often send up the winnings to^StfiBU, KLOOOorMM more than that. For^instance, last season I saw u young Ln-^glishmuu placing 5,000 francs on passe at^each end of the table, making a total^stakcoftl-. He did this six times in^succession, each time mainpie won, mak^^ing a lotal I sh in aboii; a quarter of an^hour of A.'^ ^l.This cleared out his capi^^tal ^until In sent home for more.^ Kight^of these roulette tables were in action^throughout the busiest |^irt of last season,^so that a very good idea may be formed of^the daily iQCOOMa Twotal lis only are now devoted to^tn'Ute-etspi irante, as the card game of^^fers more equal chances and makes com^^paratively little profit. Consequently the^number of these tables has in recent years^been gradually reduced anil replaex-d by^the more profitable roulette. Tin- facili^^ties for pa iron I ring ibis game will be still^further [ucrsnesd w hen the two rooms of^the new w Ing are reopened on November^I ' in xt. I hey are still in tho hands of^the decorators. Thei xi-discs of the administation,^however, arc enormous. Tile pritire of^Monaco la- first claim to LjSM),000 francs,^or i 1,000 i i-r annum, for the concession^to play. H it, in addition, Ihe society is^bound by the contract mudedy llhuic w ith^the late prinre^which, as above stated,^lasts until the rent WIS^to bear particu^^larly the whole of the exiwiises of the^government of the principality, both^spiritual ami teni|m^ral; the bishop and^clergy, and the religious orders, toe col^^lege ami si I loots and the law c.iurls are^all ut the ch..rge of the Casino; equally^the cost of the Municipal gov^^ernment for the Moiuigesqucs^pay neither rates nor taxes^the^gar de de bonneu* of the prince, the police^and the pompiers. In short, the prince^simply supportl. hi* private h i is, hold,the^bunk pay s the rest. The si , ety also^spends large sums yearly in prism at the^carnivals, races, regattas, and oilier fetes^at the Kinera resorts. Altogether the^debt of the Casino account cannot lie less^than (100,000 |s^r annum. Ihiringihe past few years an entire^change Ice, come over the (tola of con^^ducting the Casino.
