INVESTMENTS IN APRIL.
The important feature of the month was the large decline in
railroad stocks, particularly of some of the guaranteed and other
dividend-paying stocks, which were apparently sacrificed by
investors.
In

1877.

In the table above

we

have

compared the highest prices of

stocks and first mortgage bonds in April, 1875—two
years ago—
with the lowest, or about the lowest,
prices in the present month.
1. The first point which is worthy of notice in this

comparison is
bonds are generally as high or
higher in the present flurry, than at the former period. Their
value lias not been impaired, and
although several of the com¬
panies have gone into the hands of receivers, the holders of these
first mortgage bonds feel secure in their investment.
The only
conspicuous exception to this is in the case of the C.C.&I.C. bonds,
whose value depended altogether on the Penn. Railroad
guar¬
antee, which guarantee was repudiated. 2. The next point of
general interest is, that not in a single case can it be alleged that
the decline in stocks in the above poriod
lias occurred through
any positive fraud in the management of the affairs of the com¬
panies. Even in Erie, there has been no fraud developed in the
past two years to account for the company's embarrassments. 3.
As to the general causes which have contributed to
produce the

earnings, (altogether

unfavorable to their operations. Prices of fivetwenties advanced materially in the latter part of the month.
In State and municipal bonds there has been little new.
The
States of Connecticut and Pennsylvania have both offered new
loans at five per cent currency, with a limit of bids to par as a
minimum, which shows the standing of the best bonds of this
class at the present time.
The great topic of the month, however, lias*been the subject of
investments in railroad stocks and bonds, brought up for discus
sion by the heavy decline in guaranteed and other
dividend-pay¬
ing stocks in the latter part of the month. So far as a sudden
decline in valuable securities may be produced
temporarily by
speculative sales, or by the failure of large operators, the matter
is of small importance, for the real value of the
security is in no
wise affected and the capacity for earning dividends is as
great
after the decline as before it.
But when it comes to the plain
question, whether a holder of railroad stocks or bonds is liable to

with the trunk lines the chief and

almost

only cause was the
competition and “war” in rates, the volume of
traffic having been large throughout.
With the Western lines
decreased business from the construction of new roads, and low
rates imposed by State laws, together wiili a
partial failure of
crops in some sections, were the main causes.
With the coal

was

the

source

of their late weakness.

Assuming that these causes were quite outside the power of the
companies to prevent, and were likely to take place with any com,
panies in the course of a term of years, the inquiry arises as to
the best methods of fortifying themselves and
protecting the
holders of their stocks and bonds
against possible loss in such
emergencies. The most obvious source of weakness has been in
the immense amount of debt which most of the

From the above remarks it may be concluded that the first
mortgage bonds of the railroads having an established traffic are
a
pretty safe investment. That the weak point in regard to rail¬
road stocks is in the possibility that the managers may incur
debts or make contracts which will take precedence of stocks.
The financial difficulties of railroads have not been
produced by
the concealment or misrepresentation of officers; the disasters
would have come just the same, but this concealment has led

many a holder of stocks to keep them long after he would
have sold out had he knovvn the true condition of the
company.
The absence of any satisfactory information about the financial
affairs of railroad corporations is one of the grossest evils of the

day, and the matter hag become as much a subject for reasonable
legislation as the regulation of savings banks or insurance com¬
panies. We suggested in the last Supplement the outline of a
jaw needed for the protection cf stockholders.
