which provided for a line from Springfield, in Southwestern

Soon after its incorporation, the projectors of the enterprise
set vigorously to work.
They had the right to consolidate the
Atlantic & Pacific with other lines, and in pursnance of that
right acquired the South Pacific of Missouri, in operation from
Pacific, Mo., to Pierce City, Mo., a distance of 255 miles, and
extensions were subsequentlv made from Pierce City, to

(Western Division),
and make a private and impartial report to them of the character
of the lands and the nature of the country. Mr. Kinsley speaks
in glowing terms of the delightful climate of the district, and
gives a particular account of the character of the lands, the
products, water
facilities, &c., in
the vicinity of each station.
At one point he reports a coal mine ; at another coal gypsum
and clay suitable for making brick; at another, fine stone
quarries at another abundant timber; and at nearly all places

an excellent grazing country.
It is chiefly, however, for grazing that the country is immediately adapted, the other features
being incidental rather to particular sections.
Lack of space
forbids the publication of the report in detail, but the general
conclusions are given as follows.
"For grazing purposes
in a large way the country around
Francisco mountains cannot be excelled.
Cattle can range all the year without being housed. The average annual increase of stock may be pat at 33 per cent. The
rainfall may be stated as equal to 6 inches per year, both in
New Mexico and Arizona. The average rainfall at Santa Fe,
New Mexico, is 10 inches, and Fort Yuma 3 inches. The climate
IS equal to the most favored portions of Europe.
The winters
are mild, ar.d stock roam the pastures the year round. The
average winter temperature at Santa Fe, N. M., is 35 degrees,
and in other parts of New Mexico much milder. Ice is formed
but seldom during the winter. There are occasionally snowfalls on the Sierra Madre of 8 to 10 inches, which lies on the
ground but a few days. The average summer temperature in
the Rio Grande valley is about 65 degrees, with an occasional
maximum of 90 to 95 degrees, rarely higher than 100 degrees,
even in July or August; but the evenings and nights are always
cool and plea-^ant, and blankets are always used for comfort at
night. For Northern Arizon* the same statement is applicable,
with the qualification that the general temperature is lower
than in New Mexico. There is no region more healthful than
New Mexico and Northern Arizona."

A loan for Holland has lately been Introduced, subacrlptlons

doubt, be taken up by the Dutch. There have, however, been
subscriptions from this side,
and a few parcels of gold have beejv
taken out of the Bank of England for transmission to the
Hague. Italy has now resumed specie payments, and it remains
to be seen if her financial position is strong enough to keep her
new coinage intact.
This week's Bank return shows changes incidental chiefly to
the payment of the dividend-).
There is, for instance, a
decrease of £4,388,231 under the head of " public deposits,
and of £1,437,239 under " other securities," the former being
the dividend payments, and the latter, repayments of loans to
the Bank. There is a falling off of £260,515 in the note circulation, and of £142,193 in the supply of bullion, the result
being that the total reserve has declined to the extent of
£181,678. The proportion of reserve to liabilities is now 37
per cent, against 34% per cent last week, and 42% per cent
last year.
Short loans have been In rather considerable request during
the past week, at rates, on the best security, varying from
2)4 to 3 per cent. The discount inquiry has been moderate.

report says " The foregoing statement is made for
the purpose of showing that after deducting all fixed and other
charges of every nature (except principal of rolling stock trusts),
there is a surplus of $37.").792. Interest necessarily forms part
of the cost of construction and should properly for period of
construction be so treated. It is customary and was part of
the origitial programme; hence until the mileage has been put
into operation, your board of trustees has considered it
advisable to show on the books of the company, as chargeable
against income account, only such amount of interest as pertained to the amount of bonds issued (viz., $15,000 per mile},
iu accordance with the consolidated mortgage, on the average
mileage completed and in operation during the year, say 1,100
miles. The income account, as stated in the Comptroller's
report, shows the manner in which this is arrived at- the diference between $1,277,010 interest and $932,925 $344,085,
being charged to cost of construction, leaving to the credit of
income atonnt, as result of the year's operations $719,877.
" The principal of rolling stock trusts paid off during 1882
was $338,r03. The payment for this account in 1883 will be
increased to $538,000 bv reason of the addition of two new
series of $1,000,000 each— which, owing to the lease of the

"lh« amount of Interest for which jrotir company will be wsponsiblH under the leane when the Hoe reaches Oyden
will be
about $400,000 per annum, which would require 11,000,000
gross earnings. It is not nnrnasonable to expect from the
UHlnAHs done duiing the past Ave months on 185 miles of detached line that the gross earnings of the whole line when put
In operation will reach at least $1,500,000 per annum, which. If

" At the date of last report it was confidently eipec'ed that
the gioss earnings of your road for the year just passed would
have kept pace with the increased mileage. We regret to say
that this expectation was not realized, partly because mining
industries have received a severe check in Colorado by failure of
interested parties to advance new capital, and partly because
both pa-ssenger and freight rates were demoralized by competition with rival lines during the period covering the best traffic
months of the year, which reduced the earnings of your lines
to much lower figures than was anticipated." * » *
"The operating expenses were 59 66 per cent of the gross
receipts, but this included the re-building of eighty-one cars (at
a cost of over $50,000), which had been destroyed during this
and previous years, as also the substitution of steel for iron
*
» *
rails on forty miles of road south of Pueblo."
" Since the date of last report, your company has leased the
road of the Denver & Rio Grande Western Railri ad Company
for a term of thirty years. The terms of the lease are, that
your company pay the lessor company 40 per cent of the gross
receipts of the leased line, if that sum is sufficient to pay the
interest on its bonds. If not sufficient to pay the interest, then
your company guarantees payment of a sum equal to six
per cent on $16,000 per mile of finished road which has b«en
transferred to and accepted by your company for operation.
The maximum amount of bonds guaranteed by the lease is
$7,500,000 at 6 per cent. Oa August 1, 1882, 155 miles of road
were transferred to your company for operation nnder the
terms of the lease. During the five months it has been in
operation, the net profits to your company on 60 per cent of
groK' receipts, which it receives, under the terms of the lease
for operating, was $36,771, which is ascertained as follows :

The average mileage worked was 63794 miles
in 1882 against
664-33 miles in 1881.
Additions during the year were the extension of the Iowa
Falls Division from Emmetsburg, la., to Worthington, Minn 69
miles. Of the total, 288 miles are under the organizations of
the Iowa City & Western, the Chicago Clinton & Western,
and the Cedar Rapids Iowa Falls & Western companies, which
are all entirely owned by this company.
Arrangements have been made to extend the Clinton Division from Noel to a junction with the main line near Cedar
Kapids.
Since the organization of the present company the sum of
$2,437,427 has been expended from net earnings in improvements, new equipments and other additions to property.
The report says " The company owns 33 miles of road,
exclusive of the Clinton Division, upon which no incumbrance
exists ; the Pacific Division, from Traer to Holland, 23 miles ;
the main line, from Plymouth Junction to Manly Junction, and
from NoTthwood to Minnesota State line, a distance of 10
miles. These extensions were made by the company, and paid
for out of surplus earnings. At the time of the organization
of the present company by the bondholders of the Burlington
Cedar Rapids & Minnesota Company, a bonded indebtedness of
$6,500,000 was created, and the capital stock of the new company was limited by its articles of incorporation to $10,000,000.
The statute of Iowa provides that corporations foimed for pecuniary profit must not incur an indebtedness at any one time in
excess of two-thirds of their capital stock. In consequence of
the limitations thus imposed by the statute, the bonded indebtedness of the company cannot be increased in excess of $166,000 over and above the amount originally created, except by an
increase of capital stock, and with $4,500,000 of the capital
stock already provided for still remaining in the company's
treasury aEd that issued quoted below par in the market, it is
deemed inexpedient to provide for an increase of capital stock
simply for the purpose of enabling the company to increase its
bonded indebtedness.
"The extensions above referred to and the expense thereof,
defrayed out of surplus earnings, cost approximately $300,000.
Under the arrangtments made for the completion and operation
of the Clinton Division line of road, the company's treasury will
be reimbursed for the sum expended in the purchase and
improvement of this property, which, at the present time, without interest, amounts in the aggregate to $290,000.
"At the time of the organization of the company no fund was
provided or provision made for improvement or equipment of
the railway property, except 390 of the issue of $6,500,000 of 5
per cent bonds. But the net proceeds of these bonds (390) were
principally absorbed by payment of supply and other claims
adjudged by the courts to be equitable liens upon the railway
property paramount to the mortgage lien of the bondholders
of the old company.
"'Ihe claims in suit of the trustees in bankruptcy of Henry
Clews & Co., alluded to in the annual report Dec. 31, 1880,
have been settled, and with this all litigation growing out of the
bankruptcy of the old company and the foreclosure of the
several mortgages has come to a final end.
"At the time ot the bankiuptcy of the old company, and the
appoinimentof a receiverat the instance of its bondholders, the
company's railway property was so far out of repair as to rrnderit unsafe to employes aud dangerous to the public to operate; and this was its condition, except such improveraenis as
the receiver, out of the limited resources at his command, was
able to place upon it while in his hands, when the present company took the control, under the plan of re-organization adopted by the bondholders.
"Ihe condition of the property being as thus described,
together with the fact that no provisions were made for its improvement and the procurement of the requisite amount of
additional equipment, the policy of appropriating surplus earnings of necfssiry, therefore, had to be adopted and continued
from year to year, to enable the company to discharge its duties
toward the public as common carrier of persons and property,
and to operate its road ecjnomically and with profit to its
stockholders.
"The sum thus expended since the organization of the company to the close of the present fiscal year amounts in the aggregate to $1,743,121. While the stockholders, for reasons
stated, have not received dividt^nds upon their stock, the surplus earnings thus expended have provided for them a railway
with equipment equal to other first-class lines in Iowa "

{For the year ending Deceml^er 31, 1882.)
The annual report, just out, says: "Since January 1, 1883, the
remaining $3,00(5 of the land grant bonds have been paid and
canceled, being the last of the original issue of ^2,500,000. The
trustees hold $300,000 of Flint & Holly bonds, purchased with
land funds applicable to the payment of these bonds, and they
apply the coupon money collected towards payment of coupons
on Flint & Holly bonds, so that the general fund of the company will only be called on hereafter for 112,000 per annum
towards coupons of Flint & Holly bonds." * * *
" The entire cost of the Manistee Railroad has been $461,894.
The capital stock being $400,000, the amount in excess is
charged in account as money advanced the company. The
work of 1882 embraced the completion of the road, and the construction of the last mile into the City ot Manistee.through very
heavy cutting, together with the construction of passenger and
freight buildings in the city." » * «
" The steamers contracted for in 1881, for the traffic on Lake
Michigan, were delivered and put in commission early in the
fall of 1882. The extreme severity of the winter interfered with
their trips, but they have proved admirable boats, and have
made more trips than boats in any other line. The prospects
for business are encouraging. * * * The status of the common stock was not changed during the past year. The prospects for the current year are very eneou'-aging for traffic. Tue
gross earnings of the first three months of 1883 were $586,736,
against $525,146 for the same period of 1882— a gain of $61,590.
From the severity of the winter the expenses were largely in
excess of those of the same period of 1882, but there is every
prospect of a continuance of heavy business during the balance
of the J ear, with a more favorable chance of showing net
results."

for this increase. The balance of stcck above that required to
retire the incomf 8 would go into the treasury, to be used for
the benefit of the propertjr. The idea is to stock the road to
the sum of $30,000,000, including the Cincinnati Northern,
which will become a part of the Toledo Cincinnati & St. Louis
in May. The income bonds are a 6 per cent security and can
never earn more, whereas it is possible that the preferred stock
might receive a larger income in comparatively few years and
sell at a premium.
On this ground it is thought that the
holders of the incomes will be willing to make the exchange.

IimiA Cotton Movkkbht from all Ports. We have during
the past year been endeavoring to rearrange our India service
so as to make our reports more detailed and at the same time
more accurate. Hitherto we have found it impossible to keep
out of our figures, as cabled to us for the ports other than
Bombay, cargoes which proved only to be shipments from one
India port to another. The plan we have now adopted, as we
have reason to believe, will relieve us from the danger of this

—The
Winnsboro'
News and
of the 18th Inst., says " Reports from the country are
to the effect that the farmers are badly behind in preparing
and planting their crops. As yet very little corn has been
planted, and it is now about or near the usual time for planting
cotton. Is is needless to tay that the condition of affairs reported is not attributable to tne indolence of our farmers, but
to the unusually bad and inclement weather for the past two
or three months."
Yotkmlle, York Co. The Charleston JTeto* and Courier's
correspondent at Yorkville, on April 16, says " The farming
interests of this section have been considerably retarded this

spring by the continued rains, but the weather has been fine
for the past week, and if it continues a few days longer, thousands of acres of cotton and corn will be planted."
Georgia— jRo»?»e, Floyd Co.— Mr. T. F. Howell's circular of
April 20 has the following "' Planting has become general,
but interrupted more or less by the rains ; we think about 25
per cent of the lands intended for cotton have been planted, and
occasionally we hear of some 'coming up.' The lands have
been well prepared and labor is abundant and efficient ; the
only complaint is that we are a week or ten days later than the
average."
Alabama Autauga County. Reports from this county state
that cotton is coming up. There is a good stand and the plant
has a healthy appearance.

Specials to the Isew Orleans Times-Democrat
are as follows
Coahoma County, April 17. " Farming operations are now
going on all over the county, with the usual vigor; some cultivating, some yet planting cotton and corn, while others on a
few low places are overflowed or about to be oveiflowed; and
others again, not overflowed, afraid to plant for fear th»
present rise will come and sweep awa.y the crop and seriously
injure the freshly plowed surface soil."
Skipwith, Issaquena Co., April 18. "Planting operationa
are progressing very favorably. The planters have learned a
severe lesson from past experience, and are devoting more
attention to grain than ever before."
Meridian, Lauderdale Co., April 19.— " Planting is progressing favorably in this section."
Natchez, Adams Co., April 21.— " The weather the past
week has been fine, and planting operations are progressingfavorably."

Rye has sold more freely at higher prices. Barley has also
been more active, though prices nave not altered materially.
Oats have declined, but the lower prices led to considerable speculative activity to-day, and for June alone the sales
of No. 2 mixed were fully a million bushels; this activity being
due, it was understood, to covering by shorts. No. 2 mixed
sold to-day at 48%@49^c. for June, 49><@50c. for July and
44^c. for August, or about two cents uncfer those of a week
ago. The receipts at the West have been large.

prevailed. As high as $1 24J6 was
touched for No. 2 red delivered from elevator a few days ago, but
to-day f 1 23/i was accepted. Options show a decline compared
with a week ago of 1 to 2 cents, and to-dny the market was
weak, sales being made at a decline of 1 cent compared with
yesterday]s quotations. The crop prospects are more favorable; the indications point to a large yield. It is stated that
any damage that may have been done in certain sections will
be more than offset by an increased yield elsewhere. In
Indiana the outlook is steadily improviug; in Iowa a good
crop is promised;
in
Kansas it is stated that the

in
Kentucky the
are favorable; in Minnesota, while some decrease in
sign
the acreage is reported, the prospects are said to be propitions;
in Dakota, if the present expectations are realized, a larger crop
than ever before will be raised. It is stated, moreover, that a
large increase in the area devoted to spring wheat is certain.
The brighter outlook for the crop has had the effect of depressing prices in the foreign markets as well as at the West and
prices here have naturally sympathized in this weakness, though
a failure in the trade also had some influence for the moment,
and the near approach of the resumption of inland navigation,
particularly on the canals, has not been without its effect. The
Brie Canal will be opened on
'y 7th.
To-day there were fair
sales of No. 2 red here at $1 20® I 20% for May, $1 22@1 22%

Corn has declined a fraction, and a fair business has taken
place, though mainly on spenulation.

Flour has been fairly active, and at times quite firm, but at

lt)6 X^ Hrazil, 164 to Argentine K-publio, 163 to Chill, 119 to
U. S. of Columbia, &c. The demand at flmt bands was irregular,
and npon the whole sluggish; but a fairly good bunineHM was
done hy jobbers in all seasonable fabrics. Brown sheetingn and
drills were in light reaoest by j )bbeni and converters, but a few
large sales were made for export. Bleached goods opened
quiet, but a slight impetus to the demand for low medium
Hbirtings as Hope, Filchville, &c., was given by lower prices
such fabrics having been reduced ^c. per yard. Fine bleached
shirtings remain steady and unchanged, as are wide sheetings
and leading makes of corset jeans and sa'teenH; but colored cottons are still unsettled and p:-icea favor the buyer. Cotton
flannels were more sought for and a few large .aales were
effected by agents. Print cloths ruled quiet bnt steady at 3%e.,
less >6 per cent for 64x64 "spots," 3%u. flat for "futures," and
3 l-lrf@3>6c. for SBxfiOs. Prints were mostly doll.in agents' hands
but fairly active with jobbers, and printed lawns and ginghams
iimall
were in moderate request.
Domestic Woolen GtooDS The woolen goods market was
tame and uninteresting. Agents >-ontinued to make fair deliveries in execution of back orders, but new bnsine-ss was restricted in volume. The clothing trade was relatively quiet, and
clothiers tiave therefore bought sparingly of men's-wear woolens, and the demand by jobbers was light and unimportant.
Worsted coating.s are well sold up and Arm, as are a few of the
most desirable fancy cassim-res; but the general supply of the
latter is ample, if not redundant, and manufacturers are wisely
curtailing production in many cases.
Satinets have been in fair
thongh somewhat irregular demand, and Kentucky jeans and
doeskins were lightly dealt in. In flannels, blankets and carpets
there was no movement of importance, and worsted and all-wool
dress goods were only in moderate request at agents' hands,

THE DRY GOODS TRADE.
rRU>AT. P. M., April 27, 1883.
As a whole the dry goods market has been quiet the past
week, but a fair basiness was done in the jobbing branches in
(pite of the anseasonable coolness of the weather, which has
tended to check the demand for consamption. There was only
a small force of package buyers in the market, and their
operations were chieily of a hand-to-mouth character, and
light in the aggregate.
Some large sales of cotton goods were
however made to jobbers and importers at prices not very remunerative to the manufacturers, and there was a steady call for
487
fairly active with jobbers.
FoREioN Dry Goods have been quiet in importing circles,
but a fair business in silks, dress goods, &c., was reported by
jobbers. The status of the market has not materially changed,
and while staple fabrics are generally steady in price, there is
more pressure to sell fancy silks, dress goods. &c., and concessions have been made in some cases in order to market surplus stocks before the season closes.
Importations of Dry Good*.
The importations
of dry goods at this port for the week
ending April 26. 1883. and since January 1, and the same facts
for the corresponding periods of 1882. are as follows:
