SKETCH or BUFFALO, 



Bv Geo. M. Bailey. 



People who marvel at the wonderful growth and development of Buffalo 
might as well be astonished because the man who yesterday was a beardless 
youth to-day wears a heavy beard. The whiskers were there all the while, but 
it wasn't time for them to appear. It does no good now to shave them off. 
Nature is pushing the whiskers. When the proper time came, this hidden 
proof of manhood and power came forth. 

Buffalo "had no whiskers" until 1880. The city was in its callow youth, 
exhibiting all the traits of provincialism. Everyone knew everybody, and the 
few progressive citizens did not have hold of things. But Buffalo was budding 
into manhood. Nature had given the city the elements of a metropolis, and 
these elements were breaking through the skin. It will do no good now to 
shave off this growth. Nature is pushing the whiskers ! 

What these elements were that forced themselves into view, most of us 
know. There are many things which Buffalo has in common with many other 
American cities. But no city equally possesses so many of these potent ele- 
ments of greatness, so permanently established. This is not a general state- 
ment, but a particular one. Study any growing American city and you will 
find three or four superior advantages for trade and commerce operating to 
cause its growth. Study Buffalo and you will find these causes by the score. We 
can only touch upon the better known causes in a business man's book like 
this. The lesser known but potent causes we will study more at length. 

Everyone knows our natural advantages of climate, situation, soil, water 
supply, drainage and food-producing environs. These are superior posses- 
sions, but of common observation. Our commercial growth need not be 
shown by tiresome statistics. But a few figures will perhaps pin your atten- 
tion more closely to these pages and win you to a greater loyalty to Greater 
Buffalo. Thei-efore let us take up an entirely new study of Buffalo's growth, 
under the head of 

OUR INDUSTRIAL CAPITALIZATION. 

A corporation is simply a co-partnership wherein many persons join 
together to accomplish a purpose, requiring money or labor, and each part- 
ner's interest in the business is represented by shares. The receipt issued to 
each partner showing the amount of the business owned by him is called a 
certificate of stock, and is saleable the same as any other property. 

The popularity of this method of doing business is increasing. In Buffalo 
the corporation plan is well understood, especially in the purchase and sale of 



SKETCH OF BUFFALO. 



land and in manufacturing. Every year millions of dollars are invested in 
Buffalo, in shares of these business corporations, and the actual volume and 
extent of the business is a new index of the city's wonderful development. The 
writer has made a very careful examination of every document on file in the 
office of the County Clerk bearing upon this subject for the ten years 
from 1883 to 1898, including articles of incorporation or association, 
supplementary certificates and annual reports, and the result is very interest- 
ing. 




The I)i;Lam ^ Foiniii; and litoN Co.'s Works. 



Classifying these corporations into producers and non-producers, or civil 
and beneficiary organizations, he finds that the total number of corporations 
of all kinds formed in the decade was 1,195, with a total capital stock of 
$46,347,416.00. Of this number 1,033 were for business and 162 were 
social clubs, church societies and beneficiary organizations. But not all of 
this vast capital, represented by shares of stock, was paid for in money or 
property. Many of the corporations were formed to float visionary schemes, 
and did not live. Others died of mismanagement or neglect. It is safe to say 
that many of the companies have all of their shares paid in, but have neglected 
to file a certificate to that effect as requird by law. Judging only by the pub- 
lic records, the 

CAPITAL STOCK 

of the companies which did not survive is vast, and is a reflection upon our 
laws, which allow bodies of individuals to attempt to do business and incur 
debts upon a fictitious showing of capital. It also illustrates an American 
characteristic — love of big figures. Until all business corporations are sub-

jected by the State to the same scrutiny that bauks now receive, shares of in- 
dustrial corporations will not find a popular sale outside of those immediately 
enii)Ioyed by or in touch with the books and affairs of the (■ori)oration. lie- 
yond this circle satisfaction with an investment in an industrial corporation 
rests mostly upon confidence felt toward the personal integrity of the mana- 
gers. Few stockholders avail themselves of their statutory right to insjiect at 
any time the books of the companies whose shares they hold. 

Under the present general statute a new corporation must first file a cer- 
tificate stating that 10 per cent, of its proposed capital stock has in good 
faith been subscribed for, and 10 per cent, of that amount paid into its treas- 
ury. Before commencing any business it must certify that one-half of its capi- 
tal stock has been subscribed for, and 10 per cent, of that proportion paid in. 
At the end of one year one-half of the total capital stock must be paid in, and 
at the end of two years the whole amount must be paid in. Upon filing the 
first certificate a State tax of one-eighth of one per cent, of the whole (■ai)ital 
stock must be paid to the State Treasurer. If this has been complied with in 
the case of Buffalo corporations, this tribute paid by our city to the State has 
amounted to the large sum of $59,934.27 since 1883. 

The following table shows the number of corporations formed each year, 
with the amount of capital stock attempted to be sold, the amount of increase 
of capital stock found to be necessary by the growth of previously existing 
corporations, and the amount of capital actually fully paid in by all corpora- 
tions. In this last column belong those who have paid in full but have not 
certified to the fact :

SKETCH OF BUFFALO. 



It is sate to say that one-half of all the subscribed capital stock of Buffalo 
corporations has been paid in. 

The above figures tell a very interesting story. The relative amount of 
paid up and of increased capital invested each year is flattering to Buffalo's 
future, and shows itself directly in increased population. It is estimated by 
federal census experts that for each thousand dollars actually invested in man- 
ufacturing, one workman is employed, and for each one so employed four 
others are dependant. It is, therefore, simply a matter of arithmetic to deter- 
mine the growth of Buffalo from its 
industrial capitalization. True, some of 
the corporations were non-employing 
laud companies, but their proportion 
could quickly be determined. They are 
fully offset by the immense amount of 
capital invested in Buffalo business enter- 
prises during the ten years by private 
individuals and firms, and by corpora- 
tions organized under the laws of other 
states and not of record here. 




Builders' Exchange. 



VOICES IN THE AIR. 

The development of our city not 
directly reflected by a study of its indus- 
trial capitalization can perhaps best be 
shown by quotmg from "Greater Buf- 
falo," by the writer of this sketch: "A 
new and golden era is certainly dawn- 
ing upon Buffalo. Today, through all 
of her arteries of trade and commerce 
new blood is flowing, indicating a larger 
\ife and a quickening strength. Her 
prominent lines of development are scrolls of prophecy that foretell of 
Greater Buffalo. These lines shall cease to ascend when Pennsylvania's miners 
cease to labor; when the forests of the upper lake regions are felled; when the 
iron and copper of the Lake Vermillion and Superior regions is all taken out ; 
when the vast wheat fields of the Northwest are barren, and when cattle shall 
no longer graze upon the boundless prairies— for all of these products of the 
labor of millions of men pay tribute to Buffalo. 

THE TRIBUTE OF SMOKELESS FUEL. 

"It seemed very strange, a few short years ago, to use natural gas, piped 
90 miles to Buffalo. Little did we dream, then, of the inexhaustible supply of 

12 



SKETCH Ot BUFFALO. 



this dustless, smokeless fuel that lay at our doors. But we quickly accus- 
tomed ourselves to its use, and now the vast Canadian field, with its scores of 
gas wells of tremendous pressure and volume, is connected by pipe lines to 
Buffalo, with new wells drilling daily, and great stores of the fuel just discov- 
ered under our suburb of West Seneca. Competition will soon cheapen this 
now necessary article, especially when cheap electric power comes in, to chal- 
lenge gas and coal. Natural gas is helping Buffalo greatly, by adding to her 
attractiveness as a residence city, and the three present soui-ces of supply, with 
rival companies already in the field, promise, soon, fuel cheaper than coal for 
factories. 

THE TRIBUTE OF THE CATARACT. 

" There will be no more wonder, no more discussion, no more opposition to 
the introduction of electric power from Niagara, a few months hence, than 
there was when natural gas knocked at our doors for admission. The first 
thing we know this electricity will be here, lighting our homes and streets, 
driving countless factory wheels, running a hundred miles of street railroad, 
and performing a thousand labor-saving services. We little dream of the 
transformation that is to be wrought in Buffalo during the next decade, by 
the tunnel power. The whole Niagara frontier will be changed. 

" AVill there not be an exodus to Buffalo when the proclamation is made 
that Niagara power can be bought here for one-fourth the cost of steam-power 
elsewhere; for one-half the price of cheapest water-power elsewhere; when it is 
known that the source of the new energy is in the everlasting cataract, and its 
permanence is in the five great inland seas? Will not thousands of men who 
make manufactunng their pursuit flock to this new Eldorado? What was it 
that determined the location of the monster mills at Minneapolis, the million 
looms at Lowell and Paterson? What called the great paper mills to Hol- 
yoke, Lowell and Lawrence? It was cheap water-power — nothing else. And 
from each of these mills now comes the cry : " Our water is giving out. The 
dry season is growing longer every year, as the forests are being cut down at 
the headwaters of our streams, and we must soon look elsewhere for permanent 
power." Where will they look? Not all to Niagara Falls, though she will get 
many industries. Pulp mills, that need both clean water and power will go 
there. But hundreds of factories in which cost of power is a vital point in pro- 
duction, also depend as greatly upon superior transportation facilities, good 
banking accommodations, and nearness to kindred industries, and these will 
be glad to pay a trifle more for Niagara power delivered in Bnffalo, in the 
heart of all of these other great facilities, than to go to a smaller city. Buf- 
falo, then, will be not only the mistress of an inland empire, by reason of her 
lake commerce, but she will also be the Manchester of America, by reason of 
her cheap raw material, fuel and power.

HOW HESTERN GRAIN BUILDS BUFFALO. 

"A comparison of quantities with areas enables the mind to take in larger 
sums better than when the quantities are stated in abstract figures. Hence, 
when we read that Buffalo's grain imports for the year just closed (1892) were 
184,000,000 bushels, we do not realize that this is a larger quantity of grain 
than the combined annual average grain crops of England, Ireland, "Wales, 
Canada, Egypt, Bavaria, Holland, Greece, Sweden, Norway and Switzerland; 
that this one year's grain receipts would fill a bin 10 feet wide, 5 feet deep and 
7()i>!/3 miles loiig! 




'^m\ i'BMr.?- h' 




Buffalo Library Building. 

" 1'here are millions of acres of wheat lands in the Great West and North- 
west that never have felt the plough-share. What will be Buffalo's grain re- 
Kjeipts when these vast areas are added to the lands now producing grain? 

THE M ORLD COMES HERE FOE SHEEP. 

" Buffalo is the largest sheep market in the world. Some idea of what this 
fact has to do with the growth of this city, aside from the slaughtering of the 
•animals, is found in knowing that one establishment alone at East Buffalo 
tans 400,000 sheep skins a year and from the pelts takes more than 1,000,000 
Jbs. of wool. 



11 



SKETCH OF BUFFALO. 



A PROCESSION OF POKKKIfS. 

" To show how tlie bristly porker assists in buildinf;- u]) Buffalo, we should 
be told that if the hogs received last year had started to walk here in single 
file, close together, the procession would have been more than 3,503 miles 
long. Most of this vast herd of swine was slaughtered and ])acked in Buffalo, 
giving employment to thousands of men, and putting hundreds of thousands 
of dollars into circulation. 

tup: coal miners' tuibute. 

" Buffalo's coal supply, and her shipments, come from the vast Pennsylva- 
nia fields. If you are familiar with coal mines you know that miners work in 
leads or tunnels, following the vein of coal. Down in the dark chambers of 
these mines a veritable army of brawny, begrimmed toilers are picking and 
blasting out this coal for Buffalo. And this army is just as surely building up 
Buffalo as are the masons and bricklayers on our new million-dollar bank 
building, because every ton they take out has to be handled here, and the 
land, machinery, coal chutes and pockets to handle this business represent an 
investment of nearly $10,000,000, and employ several thousand men. 

" Can you imagine how big a hole in the ground these miners must dig to 
get out last year's Buffalo coal ? Supposing the vein of coal was six and a half 
feet thick, and that the tunnel was four feet wide, it would have to be 504- 
miles long to contain the 2,306,895 tons of coal shiiiped from Buffalo lastyear 
by lake, not counting the city's own enormous consumption, nor the shipments 
out from Buffalo by rail and canal. These items would doubtless add a hun- 
dred miles to the tunnel, or make it reach from Buffalo to Hudson Bay, or 
nearly to St. Louis, in an air line. And last year was not much of a year for 
coal, either, for Buffalo. 

THE TR115UTE THE FORESTS PAY TO BUFFALO. 

"During the past 15 years the lumbermen have made Buffalo and her little 
suburban port of Tpnawanda the largest lumber market in the world. The 
combined lumber receipts of Buffalo and Tonawanda last year (1892), if cut 
into boards 12 inches wide and an inch thick, would i-each from the earth 
nearly to the moon. The bulk of Tonawanda's lumber interest is owned by 
Buffalo men. 

OUR WONDERFUL INCREASE IN WEALTH. 

" The assessors say that real property in Buffalo is now increasing in value 
at the rate of $7,000,000 a year, and upon this basis they fix the amount of 
the annual tax levy. All the banks in Buffalo, today, after many years of in- 
dustry and frugality, have together accumulated a capital and surplus aggre- 
gating $7,000,000. 

15 



SKETCH OF BUFFALO. 



" This fact about Buffalo's rapid increase in wealth, put in another way, 
for better comprehension, means that if the reader had borrowed this $7,000,- 
000 at 6 per cent, interest, it would cost him $47.40 every hour for its use, 
counting 24 hours a day and 865 days a year. Is Buffalo prospering, if her 
annual increase in real property means a sum so vast as this? And the asses- 




Erie County Savings Bank. 



sors do not give the actual value of real estate by fully one-third, nor the per- 
sonal property by fully $100,000,000. 

"Something happened in 1877, as you will see by the diagram. A new law 
went into effect, calling for a new appraisement, and as a result the total value 
jumped from $39,968,105 to $111,995,955. Taxpayers madeloud complaints. 
The newspapers championed them. The Mayor, in his annual message, de- 
manded a reduction, and it was forced down to $88,876,545 in 1878. Since 
that time it has been climbing up rapidly, but steadily. Yet in spite of this 

16 



SKETCH OF BUFFALO. 



fact our avorago tax rate has \wn\ lower tlaii that of any other Ameri- 
can city of our size. The total value of real and jiersonal property in 
1892, by the assessors' approximation, is $186,957,850. If a man had 
tills wealth in money invested at 6 per cent, his income would be $21.19 a 
minute. 

" This annual increase of $7,000,000 is not made by speculators. It is real 
value, and does not come without cause. Land without people has no value. 
If one man has land, is forced to sell, and there is but one buyer, the buyer 
makes the price. If there are two or more buyers the seller makes the price. 
Population makes land values. If Buffalo is adding to her population every 
year a city as large as Lockport, while her limits remain the same (about 22 
square miles), it stands to reason that there must be more people who wish to 
buy land than of those who have land for sale. Hence the increase in value, 
wliich is jnade permanent by new fixtures upon the land, in the way of houses 
and other buildings that produce rent, as against vacant land that usually 
brings no income, but is a tax-eater. The amount of substantial build- 
ing in Buffalo during the past few years has been something tremendous, 
and it is to be regretted that there is no accurate method of getting at its 
value. 

" The increase in value of real and personal property in Buffalo, as assessed 
fu 1882 and 1892, shows an average gain of 9^ per cent, a year during that 
decade— a pretty safe investment for anybody's money. We are the second 
largest live-stock and probably the second largest horse market in the 
world. 

POPULATION CONFIRMS STORIES OF TRIBUTE. 

" The imperfect Federal census of 1890 showed that Buffalo had increased 
66J per cent, in population during the previous decade, which was a growth 
three times more rapid than that made by New York City during the same 
period. The 100,530 people added to Buffalo from 1880 to 1890 would of 
themselves make a city as large as Denver or Indianapolis, or Allegheny, Pa., 
or of our own proud and prosperous capital of Albany! An analysis of thecity 
directory shows that during the first years after 1880 our annual increase 
averaged about 10,000, while the latter years showed it to be at the rate of 
14,000. But the directories for 1890 and 1891, and sure indications for the 
present year (1893), show that our average annual increase now is more than 
17,000, which is the same as to say that there is dropped down into our midst 
every 12 months a city as large as Lockport or Jamestown, N. Y., or Concord, 
N. H., or busy Hamilton, 0. In February, 1892, an official State census was 
taken, showing a growth of 30,000 inhabitants in the twenty months between 
the taking of the Federal and State enumerations.

" These facts should make owners of Buffalo real rstate feel very well satis- 
fied with their investments. It ought, also to bring to Buffalo the money 
money which has heretofore sought investment in Denver and other "phenom- 
enal" towns, through ignorance of opportunities existing right here in our 
midst for equally profitable and far safer investments. Buffalo is a "phenom- 
enal town" beyond comparison witli any wooly western upstart. Invest your 
money here, using ordinaryc ommon sense in placing it, and you will make 
money. Our city limits can stand more suburban stretching in some direc- 
tions, though at the eastern line, several years ago, population spilled Over 
into the country towns. Our northern and western boundaries will soon be

OUR PROPHECIES OF GREATER BUFFALO. 

"The writer has carefully analyzed the annual reports of each department 
of our city gevernment, as far back as they are obtainable, and it proved that 
growth-charts could be made showing the rapidity with which our paved 
streets, sewers, water-mains, and other improvements have been put in, to 
keep pace with this wonderful advance in population and prosperity ; also 
showing that in the provision of schools and fire and police protection the 
growth has been equally marked. Churches have multiplied as cottage roofs 
increased in our suburbs. Our vital statistisc show a wonderful increase of 
births over deaths, and in other ways prove with certainty the uniform 
healthfulness of our situation. Our homes receive pure health-laden air and 
pure water from the lake, and our topography permits of perfect drainage, 
especially in the residence sections. 

" The voice of the pastoffice— that institution which, better than any other, 
feels the daily pulse of the city— cries out to Greater Buffalo the most pro- 
phetic greetings of all. She not only tells that there was an increase of 287 
per cent, in the number of pieces of mail matter handled between 1880 and

1890, but that this phenomenal ratio has kept on increasing throughout 
1890-91, and up to date. The total postoffice receipts of Buffalo for 1891 were 
$552,342.93, which was a gain of $60,513.69 over the previous year. There was 
also a great increase in our money-order business, the total volume of which 
was $2,256,840.35 last year— a sum that would take a man eleven years and 
ten months to count in silver dollars, picking up $1 every minute, and working ten 
hours a day. The city's mail was distributed by 36 carriers in 1880 ; to-day it 
keeps 116 carriers hustling. Seven new banks have been born in our midst during 
the past eighteen months, making our total possession nineteen. New factories 
are springing up almost daily in our suburbs, the most notable of these being 
the big copper smelting works of the Calumet & Heela Mining Co, owners of 
the richest copper mines in the world. This plant will cover fifteen acres of 
land on the Niagara river at Black Rock, and will cost several millions of dol- 
lars. The New York Central Railroad Company, the Gould Automatic Car 
Coupling Company, and several allied corporations, aggregating millions of 
capital, have large manufacturing plants employing about 6,000 men, costing 
more than $4,000,000, at a point in the environs of Buffalo, near Grimesville 
to make it a model industrial city, like Pullman, 

" The Clearing House reports show a wonderful gain in the volume of our 
annual banking business, and the last three years have seen our street rail- 
road service not only doubled in mileage, but improved a thousand fold in 
speed and efficiency. New railroads are knocking to come in, though we have 
twenty-six lines entering here now, besides our lake and transportation facili- 
ties. It is a remarkable fact that a fleet bringing to Buffalo 2,000,000 bushels 
of grain, all arriving in one day, can be unloaded and re-loaded with coal in- 
side of twenty-four hours. 

"Should not all of these prophecies of Greater Buffalo inspire us with more 
pride in our queenly city, and with more determination to tell of her beauties 
abroad? Should they not knit together in a more aggressive body all of the 
commercial and trade forces of the city ? Chicago is great because she is a unit. 
Buffalo might be greater than she is if her business men were more unitedly 
aggressive. There are men living who were born before Buffalo had any 
existence whatever, yet last year the famine-smitten Czar of Holy Russia 
received grain from Buffalo, a city with as many inhabitants as the Eternal 
City of Rome. Geo. M Bailey.
