to-mouth character. All attempts to infuse speculative life
into it have signally failed, doubtless in great mea-^ure being
due to a want of confidence in the power of holders to retain
their grain. Deliveries of home-grown produce have of late
been above the average, and have decidedly exceeded those
for the corresponding period of last year. Foreign importations for the past week rather looked up, being 680,895 cwts. of
wheat, against 459,200 cwts. last year. The markets in consequence have been better supplied, and this fact, assisted by
the change in the weather and the fall reported at New York,
have helped to check the improving tendency. It is some satisfaction though only a poor one to know that the imperial
average price of wheat has recovered from its lowest point. A
week ago it was only 39s. per qufirter, but for the week ending
March 13 the returns showed 29. 9d. per quarter. Although
values, judged from a statistical standpoint, ought to improve,
the chances of their doing so in any decided manner in the
early future are very faint.

Government has issued the following report, dated February

sonable men in this country as the fairest and most practicable
method of adjusting those inevitable disagreements between
employers and employed, which must from time to time come
some
up, as long as the world goes on and the question of work and
•wages continues to be with most people the engrossing subject
of existence.
The stock market is naturally dull, as spring trade is not
particularly active, and the outlook in several of the markets
The grain and
for staple products is just now quite uncertain.
flour trade has been on what seemed to be bottom prices, and
the main question in the immediate future will concern the
next crop in this country and the demands of England and
Europe during the coming year. Cotton will also be much
influenced by the course of afiairs in the next eight weeks,

higher range, and therefore beneficial to present holders;
although this should not be interpreted as indicating the
expectation of a speedy or large rise in any of the speculative
mentioned.
The open market rates for call loans during the week on
stock and bond collaterals have ranged at li@5 per cent, and
to-day at 2i@3 per cent. Prime commercial paper is quoted
ai 3J@5 per cent.
The Bank of England weekly statement on Thursday showed
a loss in specie of £8.5,536, and the percentage of reserve to
liabilities was 39}, against 41 3-10 last week; the discount
rate remains unchanged at 2 per cent.
The Bank of France
gained 14,410,000 francs in gold and 3,585,000 francs in silver.
The New York Clearing Hotise banks, in their statement of
March 37, showed a decrease in surplus reserve of |4,615,(i50,
the total surplus being $12,797,150, against |17,412,800 the
previous week.

decision of court some time ago sustained a claim of
12,000,000 by the Credit Mobilier against the Union Pacific,
which, with interest, amounted to $4,000,000. But with the
last purchase made of Credit Mobilier stock by the road, at
about $20 |)er share, the Union Pacific practically controls all
tiie Credit Mobilier stock.
One or two stockholders raised the point that it would be
well to change the time of holding the annual meeting to the
last Wednesday in April instead of the last Wednesday in
March, in order that the annual report might be in the hands
of the stockholders before they met.
It was finally voted to
request the directors to take the necessary steps for changing
the date of the annual meeting, if no legal or other valid
objection interferred.
The balloting resulted in the choice of the following directors: Charles Francis Adams, Jr., Boston; Frederick

East Tennessee Virginia & Georgia.— A suit has been
be^un in the Suoreme Court, Chambers, by Georae K. and
William H. M. Sistare and*Haro!d Clemens, "against the reorganization committee of the East Tennessee Virttinia &
Georgia R-iilroad Company, the Central Trust Company,
trustee under all the mortgages of thw company, and others.
Judge Donohue granted an order i-uiiimonin< the defendants
to give testimony before him on April 6 so iliat the plaintiffs
can frame their complaint. The suit is supported by the committte of income bondholders and stookhold rs who are
opposed to the plan of reorganization now under way, and
according to which a foreclosure is to be had under the consolidated mortgage. Mr. Wm. H, Niles is the attorney for the
plaintiffs.
Mr, Calvin S. Brice said that the suit was one by dissatisfied
stockholders against the reorganization committee, t tie other
defendants being made parties as a
itter of formality.
All
of the mortgase bondholders practically had .-igreed to the"
plan and deposited their bonds. The suit was design-d to
secure a reduction of the assessments on the income bonds

* The amount actually recetred from the trustees of the Kansas Paiifio Consolidated Mortgage in 1381 was $ 349,415.
Of this $400,000 was
derived from sales of land, aad, under the terms of the mortgage, paid over to the company to meet aooruing interest on the mortgage bonds.
For purposes of comparison, this amount, therefore, is omittei in the above table, as the prjoeelsot Che sale of lands beloni;ing to
the Kansas Paoiflc land grant during the past year have, by the advice and with the consent of the directors, not be in paid over to the company
tomeet Interest, but have been applied to the purchase and cancellation of consolidated mortgage bonds. Of those bonds. $l,2Z2,000 were
lioughtand oaneeled with this money during the year 1833. Had the land grant money been paid over to the company to be applied to the
Interest on the Kansas Pacifio oonsolidated bonds during the past year as la 1834, the surplus revenue of the company for 1883 would have
teen in the neighborhood of $3,800,000, instead of $2,55 1, 190 65 as above.
Daring the year the miles of operated road increased from 4,476'51 on December 81, 1884, to 4,519 53 on December 31, 1885,
or "96 per cent.
The total train mileage increased from 12,176,007 to 13,343,721, or 1-38 per cent. The tonnage carried one
mile increased from 984,871,475 to 1,111,315,839, or 13-84 par cent. The passengers carried one mile increased from 185,721,745
180 per cent.
the gross earnings of the system for 1885 increased over the gross earnings for 1884 in the sum of $367,881'20, the
(jperating expenses increased in stilllarger ratio, so that the result of the year's business was a decrease of $1,031, 734 '53,

The disturbance in the coal traffic of the company, caused by labor troubles at Rock Springs, in the closing months of
The loss thus occasioned cannot be definitely ascertained but it has l>een estimated, by those most competent to
;
than |350,000.
In a statement of August 13, covering the first half of the fiscal year, copies of which were sent to the stockholders, &
heavy increase in operating expenses in May and June was attributed to the fact, that, " tlie work of renewing the track,
heretofore done during the autumn months, has this year been done during the months of May, June, July and August. Last
year the work of renewal was done almost wholly after the 1st of September. The increase of operating expenses, already
noticed in May and June, will unquestionably be continued in July and August, causing the returns of those months to compare unfavorably with the returns of the same months in previous years. Nevertheless, the annual work of renewal will then be
done, and the road and motive power wiU be ready to handle the heavy volume of traffic which always comes during the lait
six months of the year. The stockholders, therefore, should know in advance that the increased operating expenses and consequent decreased net earnings during the months from May to August inclusive, of this year, will not necessarily imply any
unfavorable results for the year, as a whole."
The expectation thus held out, of reduced expenses during the latter months of the year, was not realized, and the total
cost of operation for 1885 exceeded that of 1884 by $1,330,000, or 8'83 per cent the operating expenses, excluding taxes, in
1885, amounting to 38'83 per ceat of the gross earnings, as compared with 54-63 per cent in 1884. This increase was partly
due to changes in the method of book-keeping, but mainly to other causes. As will be seen in the following table, it was
confined to what is known as the Idaho division of the system that is, the Utah & Northern and Oregon Short Line roads.
The increase of operating expenses, exclusive of taxes, on these two 'roads, aggregated $1,110,000 out of a total
increase, for the whole system, of $1,336,000. Excluding the two roads named, the remainder of the system was operated in
1885 at an increased cost of only $136,000 over the cost of 1884.
The increase of expenses on the Oregon Short Line was due to the fact that, early in the year, a through connection was
made between the Short Line and the road of the Oregon Railway & Navigation Co. This necessitated an increase of over
80 per cent in the Oregon Short Line train service. The increased expenses of the Utah & Northern were due to the condition
of tliat road and its rolling stock, which had, during previous years and under other local management, been allowed to
deteriorate to a serious extent. Under these circumstances, road and motive power were necessarily subjected to an unprecedented tonnage movement at low rates during the closing months of the year. They proved unequal to the emergency
and between September 1 and December 81, the cost of operation increased from $403,440 03 in 1884 to $643,111 83 in 1883.

During the year 1885 the St. Joseph & Grand Island Riilroad Co. has bsen organized through the consolidation of the
& Western Railroad Co., the Hastings & Grand Island Riilroad Co., and the St. Joseph Bridge Building Co.
Under this re-organization the Union Pacific received $3,985,000 of the first mortgage 6 per cent bonds of the new company,
$17,000 of income bonds, and 33,015 shares of its capital stock. At the market prices ruling on the 31st of December last,tbeee
securities represented a value of $5,000,000. There is no reason why the first mortgage bonds above referred to should not
be sold at an early day, and the capital heretofore locked up in them applied to other purposes. Meanwhile up to the present
time, and pending the result of negotiations in regard to the ownership of the St. Joseph & Grand Island road, which are still
going on, it has been thought prudent to retain control of its securities. The first mortgage bonds constitute another available cash asset in the treasury of t'le csmpany, having a present market value of $4,300,000,
The land sales of the company during the year ending December 31, 1835, were as follows

The company now has in the hands of the trustee under the Union Pacific land grant mortgage an uninvested balance of
Tuij money can be applied only to thi parchue ani cincallation of laal grant bonds, of which $3,706,000 are
now outstanding. After the maturity and payment of this issue of bonds, the balance of the fund will be applied to the
extinguishment of the sinking fund bonds, of which $14,483,000 are outstanding. The trustee of the land grant mortgage
has purchased all the bonds which have been offered, on the basis of 3-5 per cent interest to maturity. As the remaining
bonds outstanding cannot be purchased upon these t.'rms, the above balance, $3,194,475 63, is held by the trustee, in
accordance with the terms of the land grant mortgage, on deposit in trust companies, where it draws interest at the
rate of 3 per cent. As seen in the foregoing table, t'le company also has $5,833,539 44 invested in United States bonds, in the
" Tburman Act " sinking fund, upon which it receives, at the present market price of the securities in which the fund is by
law invested, a return of 3"3 per cent per annun. It accordingly appears, that taking the securities in the Thurman Act
sinking fund at their market value ($">,93i,3^ 3 35\ and including the uninvested balance of the sinking fund ($183,494 39) as
well as the funds held by the trustee of t le land grant mortgage ($3,194,475 63), the Union Pacific Railway Co. has now no
leas than $9,300,353 17, which under the op3ratioii of law, or the terms of mortgage, is so locked up as to return to it an
income of only 2-1 per cent jer annum. It may fairly be questioned whether any other corporation in the country occupies a

in oclton for future delivery at this
market
the week under review. Down
to the close of Tuff day's liufirets the full receipts at the ports
and dull foreign tdvices ditccuraged operations for the rise,
but values received such flrong tpeculalive support that the
bears were not fice sellers, and the tone was simply weakly
variable.
On Wednetday the bulls took fresh courage from
a better Liverpool report and from the heavy rains at the
South, wl ich bad cauttd llcods, interrupting railroad transportation and tlirtatening to seriously delay planting operations.
The upward turn continued till about noon of Thursday, when
a rect very of 18(3 15 points from the closing figures of Tuesday
bad been realized. Then came a slight reaction, under a
weak Liverpool report, which prompted sales to realize profits,
under which the early advance was lost. To-day was a repetition of yesterday's market, an early advance on a better
report from Manchester having been lost toward the close.
Notice's for delivery on April contracts were freely issued during the closing days of March, but they were mostly stopped,
and the stock in this market begins to accumulate, showing
confidence among leading commission houses and proving an
element of strength. Cotton on the spot has been quiet, but
quotation were yesterday advanced l-16c. To-day the market was quiet and steady at 9 3-lCc. for middling uplands.
The total sales for forward delivery for the week are 896,900
For immediate delivery the total sales foot up this week
bales.
1,980 bales, including 277 for export, 1,703 for consumption,
for speculation and
in transit. Of the above,
bales
were to arrive. The following are the ofiBcial quotations for
each day of the past week.

The above statement shows 1. That the total receipts from
the plantations since September 1, 1885, are 5,170,410 bales;
in 1884-85 were 4,707,070 bales; in 1883-84 were 4,695,899 bales.
2.
That, although the receipts at the outports the past week
were 59,09,5 bales, the actual movement from plantations was
only 30,360 bales, the balance being taken from the stocks at
the interior towns. Last year the receipts from the plantations
for the same week were 14,934 bales and for 1884 they were
31,349 bales.
Amount of Cotton in Sianr April 3.—In the table belc-w

this season. Eespecting exports from January 1 to June 30, the general opinion here favors about 900.000 bales, but with some improvement in prices, this figure would no doubt be exceeded.
From Messrs. Gadduni, Bythell Co.'s report of like date,
&
we have

large scale, in consequence of this being the last
shipment:" and although our receipts amount to 50,698 bales, or 10,500
bales more than last week, the stocks of cotton here actually show a
decrease compared with this day week. The depressed state of the
European and American markets, combined with the absence of demand
here, has, howevtr, caused holders to oe more anxious te jiart wi'h their
stocks, and there are now willing sellers of nearly all descriptions of
cotton, both ready and forward, at a reduction of iisd. to «%-3d. per lb.
from our last quotations, but there have been very few purchases made
during the week, most of the cotton exported this week having been
either bought up-country for shipment or been received against previous
contracts.
Receipts in the Oomra and Dhollera districts show hardly any increase
compared with last week, the harvesting of the wheat and seed crops
having retarded supplies; but larger receipts are expected about a fortnight hence. The ciuality of the cotton received at the Oomra markets
continues to improve, and all grades are now procurable in rair quantity,
from " fully-good fair " up to ' fully-good." Broach ie coming in more
freely, 5.016 bales of this growth having been received here this week,
and the quality continues satisfactory. Favorable accounts have been
received from the DharWar, Western and "Tinnevelly districts, and large
crops are
still
anticipated.

This statement shows that the receipts since Sept. 1 up to
to-night are now 376,639 bales more than tboy were to the same
day of the month in 1885 and 244,365 bales more than they were

Ojts have been fairly active, but at prices which show
unusually wide fluctuations. A decline was followed by the
renewal, to a fair extent, of purchases for export, which gave
holders more confidence, and to-day there was a smart
advance in both spots and future.

There was, however, a fair demand in a small way, and the
favorable result of the auction sale aluded to above has tended
to impart more confidence in values. Fancy cassimeres and
worsted coatings were in steady request, but purchases w<;re

were placei with the mill agents, and leading mikes are so
closely sold up that prices remain bteady.
Sitinet;3 and K'ntucky jeans ruled quiet in first hands as regards new basiness,
but fair deliveries were made in execution of back orders, and
values are well maintained. Cloakings were quiet, owing t
strikes among the cloak operatives, and Jersey cloths and stockinettes continued sluggish. Flannels and blankets were in
moderate demand at firm prices, and carpets were fairly active
some quarters. Seasonable makes of all-wool and worsted
