A p e il 8, 1883.] RAILROAD CAUSES 561 pany that to facilitate the action of any would-be ENDORSEMENTS— A R TIC L E I. guarantor has placed on its bonds a blank form off L E A D IN G TC R A P ID IN C R E A S E IN G U A R A N T IE S . On the 19th of this month the New York Central stockholders meet to act upon, and doubtless to ap prove, the leasing of four roads— the New York & Northern, the Carthage & Adirondack, the Mohawk & Malone and the Gouverneur & Oswegatcliie. In each case the lease will be accompanied by the guaranty as to both principal and interest of an issue of 4 per cent bonds. The New York & Northern having been long in operation, its guaranteed 4s for four millions will rep resent the cost of acquiring control, while one million additional 4 per cents (the total proposed issue being $5,000,000) “ will be reserved for developing, improv ing and bettering the line,” the present first mort gage remaining undisturbed. The Carthage & Adi rondack has likewise been several years in operation, and the proposed new bonds will replace the old issue8 and afford means for improvements or short extensions. As for the bonds of the other companies mentioned, they are secured upon railroads only recently completed and are created to meet the cost of construction. Being guaranteed by the New York Central all the 4 per cents will doubtless sell as readily, and more readily, than 6 per cents without the guaranty. A week ago also, we published a carefully-prepared abstract of the new mortgage on the San Antonio & Aransas Pass Railway. The mortgage permits the issue of $31,600,000 first mortgage 4 per cent bonds on 800 miles of road built and to be b u ilt; on the existing 100 miles only $18,900,000 of bonds can be sold, and of ihis amount $1,800,000 are reserved for improvements, leaving for the present issue only $17,100,000. But the entire loan, issued and to be issued, is to carry the endorsed guaranty as to principal and interest of the Southern Pacific Company, into whose system the San Antonio road has lately passed. The terms of this guaranty will be found in the mortgage abstract on page 540 of the prtsent volume. The lease of the Terre Haute & Peoria to the Terre Haute & Indian apolis, accompanied by a guaranty of the Peoria's new consols, is also of comparatively recent date. The foregoing are late examples of a movement with , which every one is familiar. The consolidation and amalgamation process, which is a feature of the times and the effect of which on the number of companies reporting earnings has been described in these columns, is giving increased importance to the subject of railroad endorsements. To be sure, absolute consolida tion does not ordinarily produce endorsements, the debts of the absorbed company being usually assumed out and out, no endorsement being given or desired. But where the corporate existence of the absorbed com pany is maintained the guaranty of its bonds, be it as to interest alone, or as to both principal and interest— the latter perhaps reduced to a lower rate than formerly, is of frequent occurrence; and where a guaranty re sults the custom of stamping the securities affected with a statement concerning it, is becoming more and more common. So common in fact are guaranties made, endorsed and not endorsed, that a considerable speculative value is possessed by many securities of rather small intrinsic worth, simply because their holders hope that some day this or that powerful corporation will wish to buy control of their property and become responsible to some extent for its obligations. We know of one provident com guaranty ready to be filled in at short notice, in case a guarantor should offer. Oftentimes, as all know, a corporation is willing to bid high for a piece of road by itself of small earning capacity, which will serve to round out or so extend the corporation’s system of railroads as to strengthen its strategic position. Much money therefore is made by persons foreseeing, or able to bring about, a deal by which their road is taken into some strong system and its securities receive the benefit of a good guaranty. A second reason for the increased number of guaran teed bonds on the market is also due, but in a different way, to the amalgamations of railroad interests which are taking place. Having secured control of a con necting line by lease or purchase of stock, a company not infrequently finds it necessary to make extensive improvements in order to bring the property up to the company’s own standard of excellence. Therefore to raise the necessary funds at a moderate rate of interest the company is likely to create, as the Terre Haute & Indianapolis has done on the Terre Haute & Peoria, a mortgage which it guarantees. If there is, as in this case, a first mortgage already outstanding, the bonds secured by it, if not directly guaranteed, enjoy a sort of virtual guaranty, inasmuch as a sufficient amount of the guaranteed consols are reserved to retire them at maturity. A third reason for the growth in the custom of guaranteeing railroad bonds consists in this— that many companies when mortgaging their property to secure an issue of bonds convey to the trustee “ all property now or hereafter owned.” Consequently when the T limit to the authorized issue under the mortgage is reached, the company, if it wishes to make extensions, obtain terminals, etc., without increasing its stock or intrenching on it3 earnings, must resort either to issuing bonds having an inferior lien, second mortgage bonds if the previous issue is a first lien, or it must organize a subsidiary company to do the work for it, and to give that company’s bonds a standing in the market must place on each its guaranty of payment. As first mortgage bonds often meet with a more ready sale the inducement is apt to be in favor of the guaranty. And even where a blanket mortgage already exists under which bonds may be sold to pay for ad ditions, the saving in interest charge from selling a first mortgage guaranteed bond may at times influence a company to guarantee and sell the bonds of a subcompany in preference to disposing of its own consols. Furthermore, if a company desires to make extensions or additions which its charter, unless amended, would not permit, there are occasionally better reasons for doing this by means of the guaranteed bonds of a com pany organized for that special purpose than for mak ing its own bonds under an amended charter. Thus it. is that the Missouri Kansas & Texas, on account of the peculiar laws of the State of Texas respecting the ownership of Texas railroads, is led to consolidate its lines in that State under the title of a Texas corpora tion whose bonds it guarantees. The reasons which we have given explain in the majority of instances the appearance on the market of guaranteed securities. In subsequent issues of the C h r o n ic l e we purpose to consider more minutely the subject of guarantees, giving examples of the various styles of endorsements on stocks and bonds.

The figures are received by telegraph from the leading cities. It will be observed that as compared with the corresponding week of 1893 there is an excess in the aggregate of 4-1 per cent.

Short loans have been in very active demand throughout the week, and a considerable amount has been borrowed from the Bank of England at 3% per cent. In the open market the rate has ranged from 2 to 2% per cent. But the demand is entirely due to the large collection of the revenue and the near approach of the end of the quarter. Bills are in very scarce supply, and the discount rate in the open market is only about 1 % percent. Brokers and bankers have been try ing to obtain \ % , but they have rarely been able to succeed. The general expectation is that next month the market will become very easy. The Continental demand for gold has greatly fallen off. The bankers who took the Austrian gold loan have provided the full amount of the metal required, and although it is known that the Austrian Government in tends to arrange for a second instalment very soon, it is under stood that great caution will be exercised in obtaining the money. Unless, therefore, the United States Government should borrow here, the expectation is that money will be very plentiful and cheap for a considerable time to come. On Tuesday, two days before the Indian budget was pub lished, a semi-official statement appeared in Calcutta to the effect that the India Council would require to raise in the coming financial year nearly 16% millions sterling in London by the sales of bills and telegraphic transfers, or about a mil lion and a-half more than in the closing year, This caused 4 5 6 THE CHRONICLE. scare in the silver market, the price having fallen on Wednes day to 87 9-16d. per ounce, 5-16d. below the lowest quotation ever before recorded. When the budget appeared on Thurs day, however, there was a recovery to 37%d. and there has been a further rise since to 37%d. per ounce. No explanation was given of the proposed great increase in the Council’s drawings, but it is this: Heretofore the India Council, or the Indian Railways, always borrowed some amount in London, the proceeds of the loans being employed to reduce the draw ings. In the new year there is to be no such loan, and there fore the drawings will have to provide for the full amount of what are called the Home Charges, which are now estimated at very nearly 18% millions sterling. It is true that £1,300,000 o f railway debentures will fall due in a few months, and that a sterling loan of that amount will be raised to pay them off; but of course the money will not he available to reduce the drawings. For the year ended with Friday next the Indian Finance Minister expects a deficit of Rx.1,082,000, the Rx. represent ing ten rupees. The deficit is due chiefly to the fall in ex change, but partly also to increased expenditure in London and upon the army in India. In the budget twelve month} ago it was estimated that the average price obtained for the bills would be Is. 4d. per rupee; the actual average has been under Is 3d. per rupee. For the new year the average is es timated at Is. 2%d. per rupee. For the coming financial year the revenue is estimated at R x.90,005,700 and the expenditure at Rx.91,600,800, showing a deficit of Rx.595,100. For public works there is to be a rupee loan of three crores. As already said, the Council's drawings are estimated at nearly 18% mil lions sterling, but they will probably be larger. On Wednes day of last week the Council refused to allot below Is. 2%d. per rupee, and therefore was able to dispose of little more than half the amount offered for tender. This week it practi cally sold no bills or transfers, for it again refused to allot below the same figure. Unless it is able to dispose of a very large amount next week, it will be nearly a million sterling behind the amount required according to the budget. It is not improbable therefore that the Council may have to raise in London by the sale of bills and transfers in the coming y«ar about 19% millions sterling. If so, it is difficult to see how the estimated average of Is. 2%d. can be obtained. Business on the Stock Exchange continues exceedingly stagnant. The heavy fall in Erie securities has increased the unwillingness of the public to deal in the American market. A few great capitalists and professional operators have been buying, but the general public is holding altogether aloof. There is also a depression in the Colonial department. Last week there was a very serious run upon some of the banks in Melbourne, but the Government and the associated banks came to the relief of those institutions. The run is now be lieved to be nearly at an end, and a better state of things is reported ; but the public here is still nervous. On the other hand, there is a decidedly better feeling in all South Ameri can markets. The announcement that the Messrs. Rothschild are about to bring out a Brazilian railway loan for 4 millions .sterling inspires the public with the hope that the political prospects of Brazil have greatly improved. The Argentine -Government, too, is showing more willingness to arrange a settlement of the water-works and drainage dispute, and the great financial houses are carefully studying a plan for the definitive arrangement of the debt. British railway stocks are very firm, the public confining its investments very much just now to home securities. The Continental bourses are wonderfully strong. There has been a great rise, especially an Greek bonds. The report of Mr. Law, the British official expert, has not yet been published, but it is known that the arrangements for the new loan are practically settled, and that it will come out very soon now. Great elation has been caused throughout Austria and Hungary by the success of tl.e first instalment of the gold loan, and preparations are being made for a second instalment. There has likewise been a de cided recovery both in Spanish and Portuguese securities. Hopes are entertained that the pressure put on by the German Government will compel Portugal to do justice to her credit ors, while preparations are being made in Spain for a large internal loan. In Paris it is now believed that the excitement caused by the Panama scandals will rapidly die out, and dur ing the second ten days of this month the withdrawals from the saving^ banks were decidedly smaller. During the first two months of the year the withdrawals exceeded the receipts |V o l . L V I . by over four millions sterling. During the first ten days of March the excess was more than a million sterling, so that in two months and ten days the withdrawals exceeded the re ceipts by more than 5%' millions sterling. But in the second ten days of the month they have been only about half a mil lion sterling. All this is regarded as a favorable symptom. A t last the cotton strike has ended. Nearly all day on Thursday representatives of the employers and employed sat, but it was so difficult to come to an arrangement that the meeting had to be continued through the greater part of the night. Finally, however, the representatives of the work people agreed to accept a reduction of 7d. in the £ , or a little under 3 per cent.

In railroad affairs the situation has materially improved by the resignation of Mr. McLeod as President and Receiver of the Phila. & Reading Railroad and Coal & Iron companies and the retirement also of one of the leading “ p ool” directors from that company. Whatever may have been the im mediate cause for these changes, it is universally conceded that the effect is good, and the reorganiza tion of this great anthracite coal corporation will be immensely facilitated. Now with the abrogation of the famous one-sided coal contract with the Finance Company, which has apparently been so damaging to Reading's best in terests, the whole atmosphere and environment o f the Reading companies will be cleared up, and the way will be open for strong parties to take hold of the property and build it up in the interest of its security holders. The World’s Fair is now a subject of much interest to the railroads, and if their managers only have the sense to main tain reasonably full rates the net profits ought to be consider able. In May the large passenger traffic will begin, but the first report of net earnings on the railroads will not be ob tained till near the end of June, and until then we shall hardly have anything definite as to the actual results. The open market rates for call loans during the week on stock and bond collaterals have ranged from 3 to 7 per cent, the average being 5 per cent. To-day rates on call were 3 to 5 per cent. Commeicial paper is quoted at 5% to 7 per cent. The Bank of England weekly statement on Thursday showed a decrease in bullion of £743,000, and the percentage of re serve to liabilities was 44'lo against 43-31 last week ; the dis count rate remains unchanged at 3% per cent. The Bank of France shows an increase of 3,509,000 francs in gold and 375,000 in silver. The New York City Clearing-House banks in their statement of April 1 showed an iucrease in the reserve held of S1,376,300 and a surplus over the required reserve of 810,663,075, against 59,243,200 the previous week: . $ •CD pltal..................... 6 0 .4 2 2 .7 0 0 S i r p l u s .................... 7 0 .1 8 3 ,3 0 0 L o a n s a n d d i s c ’ ts 4 3 3 ,5 2 4 ,5 0 0 C i r c u l a t i o n ............ 5 ,6 2 4 ,2 0 0 B fet d e p o s i t s .......... 4 3 9 ,3 3 0 ,1 0 0 S p e c i e ...................... 7 1 ,6 2 2 ,9 0 0 L e g a l t e n d e r s ___ 4 8 .8 7 2 .7 0 0 R e s e r v e h e l d ___ L e g a l r e s e r v e ___ B ir p lu s r e s e rv e .

Actual rates of exchange are: Bankers’ sixty days sterling, 4 8 6 @ 4 8 6 7 4 ; demand, 487%@ 4 8 8 ; cables, 4 88@4 8 8 %.

State and Railroad Bonds.—The sales of State bonds in clude §17,000 Ala. Class “ A ” at 102%@103%; §2,000 do Class “ B ” at 106; $1,000 N. Car. con. 4s at 100; §51,000 Tenn. settlt. 3s at 76%'g 75%. There were also some irregular sales of small lots. Railroad bonds have shown a little more activity, both in the special favorites and in the general list. The Reading bonds have been stronger for the general mortgage 4s and the 1st pref. incomes, which have been the most in demand among the Reading securities. The Atchison bonds, including Colorado Midland 4s, are meeting with a good inquiry at higher prices, which is presumably due to the favorable ex hibit of earnings, the Atchison having so extended a system and such a varied traffic that dulness in one quarter does not affect the company’s whole business. The Chesapeake & Ohio bonds are in good demand, and it is reported that a block of the 4%s has just been sold in London. The Mobile & Ohio general 4s are active and stronger since the Alabama decision in favor of the old management. The Northern Pacific consol.os close at 71% and the Chic. & North. Pacific 5s at 76% with some expectation of apian for funding the N. P. floating debt to be arranged before the directors’ meeting on the 20th. Among the lower-priced gold mortgage 6s of prominent companies are the consol. 6s of Louisv. N. Alb. & Chic, at 103 and Tenn. Coal & Iron 6s at 90. St. Louis Southwestern 4s incomes and stock are all stronger on the large earnings. The Erie 2d consols, are rather easier at 97%, with a coupon o f 3 per cent to come off this price June 1. Default was made April 1 on the Richmond & Danville consol. 5s, making a full year’s interest now in arrears, and giving bondholders the right to begin foreclosure proceedings. Bonds are generally selling at low prices now as compared with their former range, and with due care in selecting the security, it seems possible to make satisfactory purchases. Railroad and Miscellaneous Stocks.—The tone in th stock market has become healthier and the movements at the Exchange are less irregular. While specialties still take a. good part of the active business, there is more done in the old railroad stocks that have greater stability about them than the average “ industrials.” The grangers—Rock Island, St. Paul, Northwest, Burlington, &c.,—have all shown a good business, and usually at higher prices. There is confidence in the Chi cago roads, owing to the approaching Exposition traffic and to the generally conservative management which has charac terized most of these properties in late years. N. Y. & New England has been strong without known reason; the coalers are firm and Reading closes at 24%; Lake Shore advanced on reported buying for some of the Vanderbilts; Manhattan Elevated fell off sharply on the talk of a new proposal to be made for an underground road; Chesapeake & Ohio has been active and stronger under a good demand, based on the earnings and the confidence in the parties controlling it. The Industrials as a class have recovered much of their promi nence and are generally higher, but their movements up and down are so influenced by inside buying or selling and by current speculative manipulation that it is impossible to give satisfactory reasons for their fluctuations. National Cordage sold up to 69 on large dealings; Chicago Gas at 93; Distill ing & Cattle Feeding sold down to 30% and closes at 31%; Sugar rose to 107%; Lead to 44%'; Am. Tobacco closes at 1U 0«.

Southern Pacific Company. 31, 1893.) Some weeks in advance of the annual report, the publishers of the C h r o n i c l e have obtained from official sources the com prehensive tables given below. The first of these tables shows the general results of the operations in 1893 as divided between the two systems, the Atlantic and the Pacific, and the second table presents the same results as apportioned between the leased lines and proprietary lines. Comparing the results with those for 1891, the gross trans portation earnings decreased §1,477,620, or 2'93 per cent. Of this decrease $71,439, or 54 per cent, was in passenger earn ings and §1,142,534, or 3'39 per cent, in freight earning*, and $263,648, or 7'03 per cent, in miscellaneous earnings. On the Pacific System there was a decrease in earnings from passengers carried of §35,868, in commercial freight earnings of $1,248,189 and in miscellaneous earnings of §270,489. The decrease on the Pacific System is reported as arising in some measure from the non-transportation of a considerable part of the grain crop of 1892, which is held in warehouses for better prices. “ In 1893, according to the report of the United States Department of Agriculture, the grain crop of California was about 39,157,000 bushels, against 88,595,000 bushels in 1891— an increase of 2,562,000 bushels. It is estimated that about 18,435,000 bushels, or 553,063 tons of grain, are still in ware house in the interior of the State, and the transportation thereon will therefore ultimately appear in the earniDgs of the company. The decline in the price of wheat reduced the value of the crop of 1892 to about §26,626,534, against §34, 765,336 for the crop of 1891, and this decrease o f over eight million dollars in the value o f the crop of 1892, as compared with that of the preceding year, was reflected in every chan nel of trade, affectiug both the through and local business. The grain crop in the State of Oregon was about 4,370,000 bushels less than it was in 1891, and this shortage of crop, as well as a shrinkage in value, also materially affected the earn ings of the company’s lines in that State. “ On the Atlantic System there was a decrease in passenger earnings of §35,570; an increase in earnings on commercial freight of §119,140, and an increase in miscellaneous earniugs of $6,841. “ There was a decrease in operating expenses on the Pacific System of $172,873, or 79 per cent and an increase on the At lantic System of $297,460, or 3'20 per cent, leaving a net in crease o f $134,587, or 31 per cent. In the net results for the year there is a decrease of $718,418 in the earnings over all fixed charges, that is, in the sum inuring to the Southern Pa cific Company as the principal owner of the stock of the proI prjetary companies, and such other profits or losses from the (For the year ending Dee. * F o r w e e k e n d i n g A p r i l 1.

C. & St. L. bonds, the retirement of this stock was accomplished by a cash transaction in connection with the Cleveland Cincinnati Chicago & St. Louis Railway Co., and a complete settlement of the main line sale; to this purchase the former lessor company contributed $60,745, and the bal ance was procured by your company on long time loans secured by ample collaterals. “ All items relating to these transactions and the cancella tion of preferred stock, as also all expenses attending the sale of the main line, have been put in suspense account pending the final transactions and entries in connection with the sale of the C. C. C. & St. L. bonds and the retirement of this company’s mortgage indebtedness.” The report of President Parker says : “ Our c o ll traffic for the year made a healthy increase. The local coal business was especially good, the revenue derived therefrom being §333,971, au increase of §32,434. The revenue from through coal business, that is, coal billed to points beyond our line, was but §47,457, a decrease of $8,753. This resulted from the heavy home demand during the fall and winter, which ab sorbed nearly all the coal the mines were able to produce, combined with the scarcity of foreign cars, in which foreign coal is uniformly shipped. The foreign markets would have taken a much larger proportion than in 1891 if we could have furnished the coal and cars to handle it.” * * * “ The new Paducah connection—the Paducah Tennessee & Alabama Railroad—is developing a good business and is a desirable feeder to your line. Its purchase of the Tennessee Midland road, foreshadowed in my last report, was consum mated and the lines connected by an extension of the P. T. & A. road from Hollow Rock to a junction with the Midland at Lexington, so that the properties are now amalgamated and operated as one line between Paducah and Memphis, with a branch to Perrjville, on the Tennessee River, in all 254 miles. A further extension of this line to Nashville, and also to Bir mingham, is said to be probable. Its importance as a friendly connection and feeder will, of course, grow with its increased mileage and the development of its local business.” Results for four years on the road operated have been as foilows : EA R N IN G S A N D E X PE N SE S.

The number of tons of freight transported in 1893 was 801,761, equivalent to 34,856,663 tons moved one mile, showing an increase of 81,710 tons and an increase of 3,768,313 tons moved one mile. The gross earnings of the system show an increase of $88,330, due mainly to an increase of $53,709 in the earnings from freight traffic and $24,391 in the earnings from passenger traffic and $9,537 from express traffic, the earnings from the transportation of mails and miscellaneous sources showing little variation from last year. The increase in expenses of $63,314 is principally due to increased expenditures in the conducting transportation and motive power depirtments. As shown by the balance sheet, the amount due the Penn sylvania Railroad Company at the close of the year shows an increase of $85,000, which was necessary in order to provide the funds for the expenditure of $88,687 for construction and equipment, the surplus earnings being absorbed in extraordi nary repairs, sinking funds and current account.

It states that the de crease in revenue was almost entirely due to the decrease in receipts from freights, passengers and lighterage. This de crease in receipts must be chiefly attributed to the interrup tion of general traffic caused by the measures taken by the authorities at Colon, nearly equivalent to a closing of the port, during the prevalence of the cholera in Europe last summer.

American Express—New York & New England R a il road.—The action of the New York & New England Rail road in refusing to handle the freight of the American Ex press Company by giving the United States Express Company the privilege on the road has been taken into the courts. Counsel for the express company served a temporary injunc tion, granted by the Supreme Court, on the New England Road, restraining it from withholding express facilities from the American Express Company, compelling it to take the business of the latter company, forbidding it from granting facilities to the United States Express Company, and enjoin ing the United States Company from doing business on the route covered by the contract which the American Express Company made with the New England Road. The American Express Company’s contract with the Ne w England Road was made lasIrDeeember for five years. According to the terms of the contract the American Company says it has the exclu [V ol. LVI, sive privilege of the express business on the New England Road. The railroad company gives as a reason for abrogat ing the contract that the American Exoress Comoany vio lated it by sending freight to Boston over the N. w York New Haven & Hartford Railroad. The American Express Com pany denies that it has violated the contract. Atlanta & Florida.—The sale of this road has been fixed by Judge Clark in the Georgia Supreme Court for May 3. Canadian Pacific —The twelfth annual meeting of stock holders will be held May 10 in Montreal. The meeting will be marie special to consider the expediency of issuing preferred stock in addition to the stock now outstanding, und-r powers restored to the company by an act passed at the last session of the Parliament of Canada, and to give authority to the com pany to issue preferred stock from time to time for raising new capital. The notice of meeting in detail will be found in the advertising columns. Central o f Georgia.— \t Washington, March 31, an appli cation was made to Justice Jackson of the United States Su preme Court, in behalf of Alexander Brown & Co. of Balti more, Simon Borg & Co. of New York and Rob ert L. Harri son, large holders of the junior securities of the Central Rail road of Georgia, to stay the foreclosure proceedings ia the suit brougnt by the Farmers’ Loan & Trust Company of New York against the Central R iilroad for $5,000,090 tripartite bonds, on the ground that the foreclosure is h istile to the best int-rests of tne junior security-holders of the Central Road and its associated lines. The New York Guaranty & Indem nity Company offered to take up those bonds at par, and on this offer Judge Jackson granted a stay till April 30, when he will hear the arguments. In the meamime the deposits of securities under the re organization plau of the Central Railroad & Banking Com pany of Georgia continue satisfactory and the limit of time for depositing has been extended to May 1. The bankers underwriting the plan control a large proportion of the securities affected and profess confidence in its success. The movement on foot to prevent a foreclosure sale under the ‘ •tripartite bonds.” it is asserted, can no more than tempor arily embarrass the reorganization The oppo-ition is ascribed by the Hollins syndicate to tne influence of the former man agement The reorganization committee refused to include in its plan the Macon & Northern and the Garrolton railroads.

The best part of the plan is that the capital stock will not be increased at all, and. the company will get a working capital of over $830,000.” Cleveland Cincinnati I’h icag o& S t.L o n is.-Mr. M. E. Ingalls, President of this company, has issued a circular to the stockhold ers stating that the directors desire to submit certain suggestions and ask their careful consideration of the same. The circu lar says : “ The severe weather of the past winter has shown the defects of the system so forcibly that the advantage to the stockholders, from provision being made at once for the proper facilities to hacdle the traffic economically, is almost self-evident. The directors have recently purchased sixty loco motives and wish to contract at once for fifty more. Fifty new passenger cars have been ordered and a large number of freight cars. It is necessary to put in short sections of double track, and a large amount of sidings for passing trains in the immediate future, especially on the divisions which will be crowded with business during the W orld’s Fair. In order to be in condition properly to handle this increase in traffic, a large amount of the work has been done and still more is under contract.” * * * A p r il 8, 1893. 111 E CHROJN L LE U L “ It is therefore thought advisable by Jyour directors to make a mortgage on all the property of the company to secure not exceeding 850,000,000 bonds, running 100 years and bearing interest at such rate or rates, not over 5 per cent per annum, as the directors may determine, principal and in terest to be payable in gold ; about $'19,000,000 of these bonds, being the amount of bonds now outstanding on the various lines (exclusive of those on the Cairo division, the Peoria division, the Michigan division and the Sc. Louis division west of Terre Haute) to be reserved for the redemption of said outstanding bonds, a considerable amount of which will mature in 1899 and the remainder at various dates over a period of years. “ The object of your directors in making the new mortgage is to provide for the present and future construction and equipment requirements of the company. It is therefore pro posed that $5,000,000 of the new bonds (to bear 4 per cent in terest) shall be sold and their proceeds used to cover outlays for the construction and additions already made or in prog ress, or which may be undertaken during this and the next fiscal year1 and that the remaining bonds shall be issued only ; for like additions thereafter to an aggregate not exceeding 81,000,000 in any one fiscal year. This amount, it is thought, will be sufficient to provide for the regular outlays for con struction and equipment for many years and leave the com pany in a position to pay dividends out of its earnings. While the earnings have decreased largely during the winter months just passed, the decrease is due to special causes wiiich your directors believe to be only temporary. In their opinion the property is good and abundantly able to take care of its fixed charges (including the slight additions to same for interest arising from the issuance of these bonds) and to continue pay ing its regular dividends.” The board of directors have called a special meeting for the 10th day of May, 1893, in Cincinnati, to act on these matters. Colorado Fuel * Iron Co.—This consolidated company has just declared its first quarterly dividend of percent (at the rate of 5 per cent per annum), payable on May 15. Btoks close April 25. East Tennessee V irginia & Georgia.—A press dispatch from Louisville. April 7, said : “ Two important suits were filed to-day in the clerk's office of the Circuit Court of the United States in which the Central Trust Company of New York is complainant and the East Tennessee Virginia & Georgia Rail way Co. is defendant. The first bill prays for the foreclosure of the equipment and improvement mortgage of Sept. 1, 1888, on behalf of the plaintiff and a large number of bondholders. The second bill of complaint prays for the foreclosure of the general mortgage of 1890, placed to secure $5,000,000.” Macon & Northern.—Messrs. -Alex. Brown & Sons, of Bal timore, ask bondholders of the Macon & Northern Railroad Company to deposit holdings of the company’s 4% per cent first mortgage gold bonds on or before May 27 next, with a view to taking action for mutual protection. The interest due March lwas defaulted on. The bonds are guaranteed by the Rich mond & Danville and the Central Railroad & Banking Com pany of Georgia, which companies own all the stock and operate the road. It is therefore contended that it is a part of the Richmond Terminal system, and that its securities are en titled to recognition in any reorganization of the Richmond Terminal prr perties. Arrangements have been made for the deposit of bonds with the Baltimore Trust & Guarantee Co. in Baltimore and with the New York Guaranty & Indemnity Co. in New York and for the issue of negotiable receipts therefor on and after April 10. Missouri Kansas & Texas.—The new Missouri Kansas & Eastern Railroad that will follow the Missouri River from St. Louis to Boonville, Mo., where it connects with the Missouri Kansas and Texas, has been finished from Boonville, the western terminus, to St. Charles, about 12 miles from St. Louis. It is expected to have the line completed and in oper ation by June 1. The line from Boggy Tank, Tex., to Houston has just been completed and will be turned over to the operating depart ment on the 10th inst. “ With the completion of these exten sions to St. Louis and Houston,” President Rouse says, “ we shall have a road which will make us independent to a certain extent from competing lines and relieve us from the embar rassment we have heretofore suffered on that account.” Mobile & Ohio.—The litigation in the case of this company was instituted by Mr. Nicholas and other well-known Wall Street parties, who claimed to own a majority of the so-called “ .assented” stock of the company, which comprises ninetenths of the entire capital stock, and with them Mr. D. J. Mackey of Evansville, was prominently connected. They sought by proceedings inaugurated in February, 1892, to cancel the authority given by the assented stock to the trustees of the debentures issued in 1879 whereby said trustees were authorized to vote such stock at all meetings of stock holders. The decision in the lower court was in their favor, but on appeal to the Supreme Court of the State of Alabama, the case has been decided in favor of the defendants to the original suit, namely, the Farmers’ Loan & Trust Co., the Mobile & Ohio Railroad Co. and W . Butler Duncan. On the 4th inst. Justice Coleman delivered a long opinion and the Court decreed that the agreement of 1876 (the original agree ment of reorganization), the deed of trust of 1879 (the deben. deed of trust) are valid and do not contravene public policy. That the agreement of 1888 and the provisions of the 4 per cent general mortgage manifestly intended to keep alive the 579 debentures deposited with the trustee of such mortgage with their rights unimpaired, and that there is nothing under this agreement or the provision of said mortgage that varies the operation of the sinking fund clause of the debentures, unless hereafter ordered by the company, and that the debentures are kept alive with ail their rights. The Court decides that by the agreement of 1876 the stockholders entered into this trans action as principals and not as sureties and that nothing has occurred to release them from the agreements of 1876 and 1879. The original bill is dismissed and the injunction granted thereunder dissolved. New York Susquehanna & Western —President Simon Borg of this railroad lias given the facts as to a plan for the absorption by his company of the Hudson River Terminal & Railway Company which is cutting the tunnel through the Palisades to the Hudson River at Eigewater. The Susquehanna & Western is to make a new issue of $13,000,000 of preferred and $13,000,000 of common stock. Every 100 shares of the present preferred are to receive in exchange 120 shares of new preferred and $125 in cash in addition. Tne common stock is to be exchanged share for share. The $5,000,000 of the Terminal & Rail wav Company is to be exchanged for $1,000,000 of the preferred stock of the Susque hanna & Western. When the plan is carried out ths Susque hanna & Western will have $2,400,000 of preferred stock left in its treasury. It appears now that the Hudson Terminal & Railway Com pany was practically a construction company for the Susque hanna & Western, and disposes of the story that the terminal was a part of a scheme of the Canadian Pacific to reach New York. New York New H a v e n * H artford.—The stockholders of this railroad company held a special meeting at New Haven and accepted the resolution of the General Assembly of the State of Connecticut, entitled “ A Resolution Amending th® Charter of the New York New Haven & Hartford Railroad Company,” approved March 2, 1893, which authorizes an in crease of the stock to the limit of $106,000,000. The stock holders also approved the leases of the Old Colony for 99 years, from March 1 ; Berkshire Railroad for 99 years from Anril 1; Stocbbridge & Pittsfield Railroad for 99 years from April 1, and the West Stockbridge Railroad for 99 years from April 1. President Clark addressed the stockholders at some length. He remarked of the Old Colony lease. “ I t s t e r m s c o n t e m p la t e t h e g u a r a n t e e o f a ll i t s f i x e d c h a r g e s a n d r e n t a ls , a n d a d i v i d e n d t o its s h a r e h o ld e r s o f 7 p e r c e n t , u n l e s s t h e y e le c t t o e x c h a n g e t h e i r s t o c k o n t h e b a s i s o f t e n s h a r e s o f O ld C o l o n y f o r n in e o f N e w H a v e n . “ T h e O ld C o l o n y s y s t e m o w n s o r c o n t r o l s a b o u t 6 0 3 m il e s o f r a i l r o a d in th e e a s t e r n p a r t o l' M a s s a c h u s e t t s a n d in R h o d e I s la n d .

Ciiesebrough, E. A. Diake, Ernest L. Oppenheim, Samuel R. Probasco, J. Edward Simmons, D. Lowber Smith, Samuel M. Felton, Xavier Boyard, William B. Franklin, J. H. Parker, W . N. Cromwell. The only change from the old board was the election of Mr. Ciomwellin place of J. W . Adams. Philadelphia & Reading.—Mr. Thomas Dolar, one of the managers of this company who has been identified with the famous pool controlling the stock, sent in his resignation to the Board last week. This was followed on the 4th inst. by the resignation of Mr. McLeod as President and Receiver, such resignation to take effect from May 1. Mr. McLeod’s letter was as follow s: P n iL A D E i.r n iA .

Y o u r s t r u ly , A . A . M cL e o d . A similar letter was also sent to the board of managers of the Philadelphia & Reading Coal & Iron Company. On all sides the wisdom of Mr. McLeod’s action is com mended, as it was impossible to make progress towards re organization when he had not the confidence o f stock and bond holders in the company. From Philadelphia the report came on the same day, April 4th, claiming to be based on “ official” information, that President McLeod had made arrangements to take Reading’s holdings of New England and Boston & Maine stocks, amounting to about 24,000 shares of Boston & Maine and 11,000 shares of New England. It is unnecessary to inquire iuto the precise causes which led to Mr. McLeod’s resignation, and it is sufficient to point to the fact that the prospects of a speedy reorganization of the company are greatly increased by it. His clear perception in the matter is unquestionably to his credit, and it is only just to remark that in three very important particulars Mr. McLeod leaves the Reading property in a much stronger position than when he became President. The lease of the Lehigh Valley with its extension to Buffalo, the control of the Poughkeepsie Bridge and its connecting road to Hartford (at a small annual interest charge), and the new Terminal in Philadelphia are all of them improvements which seem of great importance in estimating the future possibilities of the company under a new and strong administration. —The Philadelphia L e d g e r money article, commenting upon Mr. McLeod’s resignation, says : “ We learn that he had been considering the matter for several days, and had confidentially consulted with various friends, who advised it. Finding that the general wish of those interested in the Reading properties was tha* lie should withdraw, he concluded to do so, fixing a [VOL. LVI. date in advance so that the business of the companies might not suffer by too sudden change. This course is taken for the best interests of Reading, and is generally commended. It is stated that Mr. McLeod will continue as President of the Bos ton & Maine and New England railroads, where his railroad management, it is expected, will be of value. To give proper attention to the exacting cares of those distant roads and take care of the Reading at the same time is rather too .much for one man to undertake, for the be-t interests of Reading re quire the undivided attention of whoever assumes to be its directing head.” Richmond & Danville.—A second default was made April 1 in the payment of interest on the consolidated 5 per cent bonds, and a full year’s interest is now over-due. The first default of October 1 having continued more than six months, the bondholders can now proceed to foreclose on the Rich mond & Danville Road. It is to be hoped that in any plan for the Richmond Terminal reorganization the rights of un derlying bondholders will be so fairly treated that they can give full support to the plan from the start. San Antonio & Aransas Pass.—At San Antonio, Texas, April •, the board of directors met. All the local directors were 5 present, the resignation of J. Kennedy Tod, one of the direct ors who resides in New York, was accepted, and M. D. Monserrat elected to fill the vacancy. The resignation of E. P. Swenson of New York as Vice-President was accepted, and Mr. Monserrat was elected to that position. The resignation of D. B. Robinson was accepted and T. E. Stillman, of Butler. Stillman & Hubbard, was elected President and director. South Carolina.—Judge Simonton, at Charleston, S. C., this week ordered the postpone) tent of the sale of the South Carolina road from April 11th to Dec. 13. The postponement is made because of appeals pending and the consequent chilling of the bidding because of the uncertainty attending the validity o f the sale, and upon the depressed condition of railroad propeity in the State because of adverse legislatHm. Staten Island Rapid Transit.—At the annual meeting of the shareholders of the Staten Island Rapid Transit Railroad Company Erastus Wiman, President, and the entire board of directors were re-elected, with two additional directors, E. P. Wig and and Louis DeJonge. The announcement was made by the Treasurer that the rail road had taken care of the $300,000 in bonds which matured on April 1 and had also issued a new series of $500,000, most of which had been subscribed for by the holders of the old bonds. It was decided to lay a double track over a large por tion of the road and make new terminals. The company will also build a new ferryboat. Tennessee Coal & Iron .—This company held its annual meeting at Tracy City, Tenn. As the company has acquired the Debardeleben Coal & Iron Company, the Cahaba Coal Company and the Excelsior Company, all of Alabama, since the last meeting of stockholders, the new directory is com posed largely of representatives of the new properties. The following directory was elected: Nat. Baxter, Jr., and A. M. Shook, of Nashville; T. C. Platf, John H. Iuman, Theodore W . Myers, James T. Woodward, C. C. Baldwin, John C. Haskell, and W . S. Gurbel, of New York; H. L. Debardeleben, T. C. Aldrich, David Roberts, T. T. Hillman and Walker Percy of Alabama; C. F. Adler, M. E. Lopez and Augustine Stnythe, of Charleston. The directors held a meeting and elected Nat. Baxter. Jr., President; H. L. Debardelebtn, VicePresident ; T. C. Aldrich, Second Vice-President and General Manager, and James Bowron, Secretary and Treasurer. The reports made to the stockholders represented that the affairs of the company are in an entirely satisfactory condition, but the pamphlet report will not be ready for distribution for some little time. The directors were authorized to proceed with the construction of the steel plants in Alabama. Western New York & Pennsylvania.—In Philadelphia, April 1, Judge Acheson, in the United S ates Circuit Court, appointed Samuel DeCoursey receiver. Tne complainant was William G. Mendenhall, a holder of ten second mort. bonds. A Philadelphia report quotes President DeOoursey as say ing : “ The cause of the trouble has been low rates. Had we been able to secure reasonable freight rates this step could have been avoided. The cost o f carrying freight has been about 3'99 mills per mile and the rate has been about 6 05. Tnis leaves a small margin of profit. Tho rate should have been at least 8 mills. At that rate our net earnings would be $1,200,000 more annually, which would enable us to not only pay 3 per cent on our second mortgage bonds but also 3 per cent on our stock. There is something radically wrong with our system of transportation, and if the remedy is not applied the trouble will not end here. Had we borrowed the money we could have paid the interest on onr second mortgage bonds, but we did not care to do that. It is not right to incur a floating debt to pay interest charges. We preferred to hand the road over to the second mortgage bondholders in good physical condition and free from debt. I think each year’s business should be done on its own basis.” —In New York Messrs. Isaac Seligman, of J. & W . Seligman; Rudolph Finsch, of Kessler & Co.; Gordon Macdonald, Vice-President of the Continental Trust Company, and George Coppell, and Mr. Bretherton, of London, the second mortgage bondholders’ cemmittee, held a meeting to discuss the situa tion. Nothing definite was accomplished. It was said that the road was in good condition and owed nothing beyond the interest. THE CHRONICLE A pr il 8, 1S93.] 681 glue C o m m e r c ia l g i m e s .

The speculation in lard for future delivery in this market was dull, and immediately after our last there was a further decline, but subsequently stronger advices from the West where “ shorts” were reported to be covering contracts, caused the greater part of the loss to be recovered, and the close was steady.

D uring the early portion of the week the demand was principally for c ov ering against short sales, but toward the close low er prices attracted some investment inquiry. Saturday was observed as a holiday by the Exchange, and the current week’s trading com m enced on Monday, when an immense and unexpected pressure to realize was developed under w hich prices declined 24 points net. Tuesday’s market was somewhat irregular, but with the im mediate forcin g c f supplies less pronounced, a steadier tone finally ensued, and at the close prices had made a small fractional gaiD. On W ednesday Liverpool operators resumed trading after the Easter holidays upon a much low er baeisof values than had been expected, and the influ ence was demoralizing here, our market dropping olf 22 points and closing at the lowest. During the three days just reviewed the evidences pointed to free selling of options on both old and new crop by Southern operators, said to be influ enced by the slow covering demand and good promise for the next yield of cotton. Yesterday, however, the Southern offering was smaller, cable advices more promising for both sale on the spot and future delivery, and onr market promptly responded with an advance o f 21(523points,exporters buying the May option fieeiy. Tc-day there was considerable fluctuation over a narrow range, the market finally closing a trifle higher in cor sequer ce o f free buying o f near options on foreign ac count. Cotton on the spot sold very well, prices declining Me. early and afterward recovering 3-16c. and closing at 8 9-16c. for middling uplands. The total sales for forw ard delivery for the week are 1,102,900 bales. For im mediate delivery the total sales foot up this week 12,929 bales, including G,0S6 for export, 543 for consum ption, — fo r speculation and 8,300 on contract.

THE DRY progress has been made with cotton flannels in the direction of orders for fall deliveries. Denims, tickings and other colored cottons are firm, with short supplies, and the bulk of production well covered for some time to come, Prints are slow all round, and leading makes of indigo blues have been reduced % c . per yard. Ginghams also are slow outside of leading lOj^c. makes, which con tinue in fair request. The most important feature of the week was a drive in Amoskeag Cantons, a regular 8c. gingham, which the H. B. Claflin Company put on the market at 6%c. per yard by the case and 6%c. per yard loose, other jobbers following with a like cut in the makes directly affected. Print cloths have declined to 3%c. for 64 squares from first hands, with sale3 reported from second hands at 3J£c. per yard. The demand is slow at the regular quotation, and the market still wears a weak appearance. 1893. S lo c k o f P r i n t C l o t h s M arch 3 1 .

Mills are, however, well employed, and there is a very free outward movement on ac count of contracts already secured. While making few new purchases, buyers are taking deliveries on their existing orders with a freedom from objection quite cheering to agents, rejec tions being singularly rare and cancellations few and far be tween. Cheviots, diagonal worsteds and indigo-blue flannel suitings are all very well situated, somewhat better so than fancy worsteds. Overcoatings and cloakings are being freely delivered, and some fair orders for the latter are recorded. Shawls promise to be in more general request than during recent seasons. Blankets and flannels for future delivery have again been well ordered at firm prices. Agents have got well enough under order for fall dress goods to ensure the market ing of the bulk of their production with some time yet before them in which to make further progress. F oreign D r y G oods. —The dull season in this department is quite as pronounced as in the domestic goods market, so far as spot trade is concerned. Only small buyers are here now, and they are devoting themselves more to bargain-hunting than to purchases of regular supplies. A ll specialties in stock are irregular in price, but staples are firm. For the coming sea son good orders are being secured in silks ata decided advance in price compared with last season, and of linens a similar note is made. Fine woolen goods are being fairly well or dered in men’s wear, and it promises to be a fair fall season in woolen and worsted dress goods. By a process of selection of authorities two very different reports could be written of the cotton goods market. Of one division it could be faithfully said that the toae is very steady, stocks bare and the mills still well sold ahead. Of the other, that there is irregularity in prices, occasional accumulations and the mills running out of contracts. In one respect both reports would agree, and that is on the character of the new business coming forward, this continuing all round but mod erate in volume. April usually sees some very important business transacted, but of this there is no indication so far. The decline in the price of raw cotton has been so steady and so pronounced that it is exercising some influence over the views of buyers now, the effect I m p o r t a t i o n s a n d W a r e h o u s e W i t h d r a w a l s o f D r y G o o d s . o f which is heightened by the decided weakness in The importations and warehouse withdrawals of dry goods the print cloth market. Thus where agents are not absolutely independent of present demand they meet buyers at a disad at this port for the week ending April 6, and since Jan. 1, vantage, with the result that prices are shaded here and there, 1893, and for the corresponding periods of last year are as although not openly quoted lower. Outside of domestics follows: O !> the quietude is pronounced, prints, ginghams and fancy cot § 2 te l H 5 .H * ton goods ruling slow at first hands and moving but indiffer g p g § ently with jobbers. There is, however, still a large movement gH: SS& from the mills and warehouses of both cotton and woolen g: : § e: It fabrics, and to the extent of this the prevailing slackness of ©& es buying is in some degree attributed. Reports from the South m ©l west tell of a large distribution there, but in the West and Northwest the severity of the winter has undoubtedly checked what promised to be a most excellent season. Collections continue irregular but are not abnormally so.

For domestics the new demand has disclosed nothing of first importance. Brown sheetings are moving freely on back orders, and leading makes of both light and heavy makes are still sold ahead, but new orders are not coming forward in sufficient volume to balance current production. Bleached Bhirtings are in a similar position. Of both there are occa sional stocks to be met with in brands selling on their merits, and where this is the case agents are treating buyers with markecFcourtesy and consideration.

R E V IE W OF M U N ICIPAL -BOND BALES IN MARCH. March has been another dull month with the dealers in municipal securities and again has come the report from several cities that all bids for new loans have been pronounced unsatisfactory and rejected. The total amount of the new loans which were reported as issued and sold last month was $6,994,246, this being an ad vance of about two million dollars on the amount re ported in February and a million and a-half more than the total for January. On comparing the figures with those for the corresponding month of last year, we find the falling off to be $1,156,254. This latter com parison, however, is of little significance, as the average monthly output in 1892 was $6,985,300, and it will be noticed that the figures for March, 1893, are just above this average. In the table below we give the prices which were paid for March loans to the amount of $6,283,751, issued by twenty-four municipalities and in the case of each loan a reference to the page of the C h r o n i c l e where a full account of the sale in question will be found.

THE CHRONICLE. 592 Mayor Stuart said in hia message : “ I most respectfully recommend that at the earliest possible moment some action be taken upon the question of the ad visability of refunding at a lower rate of interest the city’s 6 per cent loans. * That the credit of our city, both at home and abroad, stands ■ second to no city in the world is best attested by the fact that when you authorized the borrowing of $1,000,000 upon her credit for the purpose of building the Queen Lane Reservoir, and advertisements were made to that effect, we were enabled to place this loan at the very low rate of 3 per cent, and in addition secured a total premium of $9,750. This is the low est rate of interest at which the city has ever been able to place her loans. “ While our funded debt is theoretically $54,542,245 22, it is a very important question of the greatest possible interest whether the holdings of the Sinking Fund Commission, amounting to $27,381,789 60, are or are not an asset; for if they are, the actual debt is but $27,160,455 62, and should be so considered in estimating her borrowing capacity. “ While it is true the city is thus in debt, yet she is in the most prosperous financial condition, as among her many re sources, one alone, the real estate she owns, represents a value of over $31,000,000, exclusive of Fairmount Park, valued at over $13,000,000.” Piedmont, W.
