been taken out of the Bank during the week for transmission
to New York, but the operation is understood to have been for a
very special purpose, and it is not expected that the demand will
assume any considerable proportions. There are no reasons for
believing in any immediate change in the value of money, but
the opinion prevails that current rates will be satisfactorily
maintained. During the summer months a feeling of quietness

from Cairo state that a loan of £5,000,000 has been obtained to
pay claims and to meet the cost of the British occupation.
The weather has continued very favorable, and rapid progress
has been made with the agricultural work incidental to this
period of the year. We are having, in fact, a most seasonable
March, and if the spring and summer months are equally favorable, we should have a good season and quite average crops.
The position of the wheat trade has not materially altered.
The quietness which is apparent may be partly ascribed to the
holidays, but more correctly to the much more favorable agricultural prospect here and abroad. The American telegrams
indicate that there is an increasing desire to sell for future
delivery, and hence millers operate with great caution.
On
the other hand merchants are not pressing sellers and there is
in consequence no material fluctuation in prices. The following

Exchange. There has been a sharp advance in foreign
exchange the past two days, as tlie demand for bills rapidly
ncreased. This is attributed to tlie easier money market, and
the fact that the mercantile demand had recently been held in
check. To-day prime bankers' GO-days' sterling bills sold

State and Railroad IJonds.— The principal activity in
Southern State bonds has been in the Arkansas railroad bonds,
and to-day the Central Railroad issue sold at 22(8321^; L. R. P. B.
& N. O. at 51; Miss. Ouachita & Red River at 51%. In other
State bonds transactions at the Board have been very small.
Railroad and miscellaneous bonds liave been more active, and
at least t wo issues have shown unusually large sales these are
the Mutual Union Telegraph 6s and the N. Y. West Shore &
Buffalo 5s, which have advanced sharply, with a number of
Otlier bonds have shown a fair busisales made "buyer 60."
ness, generally at higher prices.
;

Railroad and Miseellaneons Stocks.— The stock market
has evinced more decided strength tliis week than for a long
time before. There lias been a tone of greater confidence, and
evidences of liealthy buying of certain stocks, wliicli gave
more or less animation to the whole market. It is hardly
necessary or proper to reacli out into the future and prophesy
a bull market in the next few weeks, but resting only on
present appearances, there is certainly reason for tliinking
that circumstances seem ripe for a stronger tone than we have
so far had during the current year. If this sliould prove true,
and the outside interest in stocks should materiallv increase,
we would still suggest to buyers that they select carefully
their stocks for purchase, and exercise a discretion in a market where stocks are so numerous, and some liave inti'insic
value, while others have only a speculative value.
The Northwest stocks were active, and led the market in
their advance early in the week, on renewed reports that some

would soon be taken looking to the distribution of the
company's surplus. St. Paul followed the Northwest stocks
and advanced shai-ply, and as to both companies, the large
weekly increase in earnuigs lias now a bull influence. The
Vanderbilt stocks shared in the strength and advanced considerably. Central Pacific, Denver & Rio Grande, Missouri
Pacific, East Tennessee Virginia & Georgia and Rochester &
Pittsburg were also noticeable for large transactions at higher
action

prices.

The Denver & Rio Grande has been opened to Salt Lake City
and will form, via Ogden, a new route to the Pacific coast.
Witliin two months still another road the Atlantic & Pacific

—
— will be opened, forming, with the Southern
fornia,

a new route to San Francisco.

real expense of operating has probably been nnderstatad In
the accounts above given. The road is now practically oompleted, although additional expendltares are .being made kl

"As the stockholders have already been informed

reports, we own an undivided half of nearly the entire stock of
the Atlantic & Pacific Railroad. The Bt. Louis Si San Francisco

Railway Company owns the other undivided

half.

At the time

of writing this report (March 38, 1883), the Atlantic & Pacific
Railroad is completed to a point 513 milss west from Albuquerque, The immediate plan of the Atlantic Si Paciflo Company
is to complete its line to the Needles, on the Colorado River,
57 miles from its present terminus. At the same timj the
Southern Pacific Railroad is building eastward from Mohave
to the Needles.
.\ junction of the two lines is expected on or
about May 15, 1883. The road has been built in a substantial
manner, and is well equipped with rolling stock and power.
Like many other Western lines bailt through a difBcnIt and
unknown country, its cost was under-estimated, and the flrat
mortgage bonds, being limited to $25,000 per mile, have not
been sufficient to build and equip the road and meet its interThe amonnt of money

President's report says

:

"In ourjast annual report the

belief was expressed that there was then a good prospect for
the maintenance of paying rates during the year 1882; as will
be seen, we were disappointed in this so far as the rates prevailing for the first six months of the year were concerned,
while in the last half-year, remunerative, thongh very moderate rates were maintained.
"It will be noted that the freight tonnage for the year shows
a considerable increase over the tonnage of the previous year;
this, notwithstanding the various influences causing a reduction in the total amount of tonnage of the country and of
most railroads employed in the East and West trafiBc; this increase is due largely to the effect of the arrangements with the

Erie & Western Railroad Company, going
1, 1882, accompanied by the changes in
connections,
resulting in a large increase of the
our Western
percentage of the whole traffic secured to this companj^'s
*
*
"The tonnage of the whole road was injuroute."
riously affected by the strikes in the mining and manufacturing districts served by the road, largely reducing earnings
on important portions of the road during a large portiun of
*
*
*
the year, more especially in the summer months."
"i'hat the increase of tonnage has not been accompanied
with equal increase of earnings is due to the decrease in rates,
and we here repeat that the rates for through freight have
not been under the control of this company; the rates depending on the action of numerous independent roads, any one of
which can fix reduced rates and thus subject the other roads
to the alternative of adopting such rates or retiring from
competition; and this applies with peculiar force to this company's road because of 'its position as a connecting link between the East and West roads, and not itself reaching the
principal competitive centres.
The good condition of the
track and equipment existing at the close of 1881 has been
fully maintained during 1882, and in many particulars considerable improvement has been made."

the general balance for two years, compiled for the Chronicle,

The report says that the construction of the main line
(Southern Bivision) did not progress as rapidly as was anticipated at the opening of the year. The two principal causes for
delay being the difficulty in obtaining ties and timber and the
slow delivery of materials by the Mexican Railway Company
from Vera Cruz to the City of Mexico. During the year the
line was constructed from San Juan del Rio to Lagos, a distance
of 284 kilometres, together with a branch from Silao to Guanajuato of 23 kilometres. To Febru.iry 22d, 1883, the line was
completed 533 kilometres north from the City of Mexico, including the branch to Guanajaato.

The speculation in cotton for future delivery baa been quit*
active at this market during the past week. There has n(«n
an important decline in values, but in its progress the fluctuations have continued to be wide, reflecting a verv unsettled
feeling.
On S-tturda^, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday,
there was at the oi)ening an effort to check the decline, farored, in some cases, by steadier ac<rount8 from I.iverf)Ool
but
the pressure to sell was renewetl, carrying prices <lown to still
lower ligures. Towards the close of Wednesday there was some
recovery, and on Thursday a feverishly variable market culminated in an advance of 9@il points, due mainly to a demand
to cover contracts. This morning Liverpool did not respond
as fully as was hoped to our report of yesterday, and there
was a dull opening, followed by a decline of 4(*6 jKiints, with
a re-action toward the close, but with business quiet. Cotton
on the spot was dull early in the week, and on Wednesday

the supply has been moderate, and they have been most in

There has been a fair demand here, however, for the cheaper

For all-wool and worsted dress goods there was
only a moderate call at agents' hands, but a steady business in
seasonable dress fabrics was reported by jobbers ; carpets
have been jobbed with some freedom, but the demand at flrst
hands was quite moderate, distributers being amply supplied

change in the general condition of the dry goods trade. The weather has become more
favorable for the distribution of many seasonable fabrics, and
a slightly improved business was c onsequently witnessed in jobbing circles. There was a comparatively small representation of
wholesale buyers in the market, and those present bought

very considerable amount cf assorted merchandise was disposed
of.
The tone of the market continues steady, and very few
fabries of domestic or foreign manufacture are in redundant
