Hig'Ii Water Advertising Mark. 



The New York Herald of April 17 printed an 

 editorial statement that on the inevious day 

 (Sunday, April llj) its paid advertising reached 

 tiia high water mark in that journal's history. 

 " The Chicago Tribune " on that same day, last 

 Sunday, April 10, printed not only more adver- 

 tising than the New York Herald, but what is 

 believed to be the greatest amount ever printed 

 in a single issue of any regular main edition of 

 a newspaper. Leaving out of account the twen- 

 ty-two columns of adverticing printed by the 

 New York Herald on that day in the special sec- 

 tion devoted to the interests of Brooklyn and 

 New Jersey and appearing only in those editions, 

 the record of " The Tribune " for April 16 sur- 

 passed that of the Herald for the same day by 

 more than 10,000 agate lines of paid advertising. 

 Even allowing the Herald all it claims, includ- 

 ing its Brooklyn and New Jersey supplements, 

 the New York Herald on that day still fell short 

 of " The Tribune " by more than 1.000 lines in 

 the actual amount of paid advertising. 



The exact figures are given as follows: The 

 New 1 ork Herald of April 16 printed in its main 

 e iition. exclusive of it :. Brooklyn and New Jer- 

 sey supplements, 77,823 agate lines of advertise- 

 ments. Including those supplements it claims 

 86,700. " The Chicago Tribune " printed that 

 day S3, 450 agate lines of paid advertisements. 

 The comparison should be made in lines of agate 

 measure, because the columns of " The Trib- 

 une " are longer and contain 305 agate lines, 

 while those of the New York Herald contain only 

 238 lines of agate each. 



For the four Sundays ending April 16, the 

 number of column" of advertisements in the New 

 York Herald, according to its own claims and 

 including its Brooklyn and New Jersey special 

 section, was 1,007.25. In the same period of time 

 " The Tribune " printed 1,084.4:'. columns of ac- 

 tual paid advertisements. These, reduced to 

 agate lines, give the Now York Herald 307.308 

 lines and " The Tribune " 330.751 lines. In " The 

 Tribune " there were printed in that period 

 23,383 more agate lines than in the New York 

 Herald. This excess was equal to eighth-one 

 columns of the size of those of the New York 

 Herald. Therefore the New York Herald printed 

 an average of 2(1.25 columns less each Sunday 

 than "The Chicago Tribune."
