CONCENTRATION OF CEMENT IN-
...TIRESTS, u m...
WASHINGTON. .Oot. :8.—,«A bulletin
issued by the Geooglcnl Survey on .the
Concentration of Cement Interests, de-
clares that there is noticeable a cer-
tain concentration of interests in that
industry and this probably will be.
come more marked year by year. The
88 plants in ”intense In 1905 are own-
ed by the 78 companies and several of
,of these nominally independent com-
panies are closely connected by own-
ership. In conclusion the. bulletin
says: "F‘igures obtained unofficially
from various sources indicate that the
total authorised capitalization of all
the American Portland Cement 'com-
panies in operation will fall between
the limits of $110,000,000 and $125,000,-
000. This cannot be considered exces-
sive, in view of the fact that it would
cost probably $75,000,000 to $85,000,-
000 to replace the properties and
plants now In existence.”

there was dissatisfaction among the
workers for other reasons. In some
looms are stopped than has been the
case heretofore in the history of the
industry in tliisistute. in one large
mill, there are said to be six hundred
looms idle, where a few years ago the
