THE CHRONICLE.

Btriction, interference and amounting in some cases
even to virtual confiscation. The history of railway
development in the United States is not alone in this
respect he observes : a similar experience has attended
the development of most branches of mercantile or
manufacturing enterprises in America. An example
at the present time i3 found in the phenomenally rapid
growth of the electric street car systems. Every town
has its electric ears now, and franchises are given away
without restrictions, but the day of reckoning, Mr.
Delano thinks, is sure to come, not only from the
competition of the many lines but because the public
will eventually begin making requirements and restric­
tions which can only be complied with at great cost.
Mr. Delano points ont that while the general condi­
tion of English railway tracks is superior to the aver­
age condition in this country, it would be a mistake to
suppose that the best track in this country is inferior
to the best track in England. Speaking of freight
rates, he says the conditions are so different from those
in the United States that comparisons usually reduce
themselves to matters of opinion on the part of the
writer. The haul in England is very much less than with
ns, and the freight rate includes drayage at both ends of
the route. Thi3 system of universal drayage is usually
done with teams owned by the railway companies in the
large cities, but not infrequently, and especially in
smaller places, by contract, to specified teamsters. In all
large cities each important railway company has a great
many receiving stations at which packages, parcels or
freight may be delivered and the companies must also
be ready to send to consignors for freight. But after
gathering the freight together in its freight house a
company has complete control of how and when tho
freight shall be delivered, which admits of some im­
portant advantages over our system ; thus the same
warehouse or freight sheds may be used for the
j handling of in-freight part of tho day and for
I out-freight at other times. This remark applies too
| in the matter of handling freight at destinat'on,
and altogether Mr. Delano thinks the cheapest way
for the community at large to handle freight would
be for the railroads of this country to adopt the Hng| lish system and provide for the drayage at both ends,
[| charging of course for the service performed. But
does not Mr. Delano overlook an important objection
to such a step. Would not the State legislatures and
railroad commissions in the West attempt to regulate
the drayage charges just as they have done the freight
charges, and perhaps in many cases compel their aboli­
tion altogether ?
One feature of railway traffic which in America
offers most serious complications gives far less trouble
in England, according to Mr. Delano, namely fluctua­
tions in traffic. In the United States and especially
with the Western roads the fluctuations in traffic are
•0 great that it is impossible to have adequate facilities
and sufficient competent, well-trained employees to
take care of the maximum traffic, which occasionally
lasts for two or three months, and not have a great
superabundance in ordinary times. It is natural that
aIn England, with a more densely settled country, e.tcelent roads throughout, and far mere diversified traffic,
he fluctuations diminish and therefore assist in makng the safe and successful operation of traffic less
lifficult.
The railway clearing house is one of the commenda>e features of the English system. Mr. Delano de­
nes that institution as being a sort of gigantic pool,

221

through the means of which moneys collected on joint
rates, either for passenger or for freight, are divided
on an agreed basis, each company rem itting to the
clearing house all earnings from joint billing or sale
of tickets, deducting only its own proportion. The
clearing honse has not put an end to competition, but
has prevented rate cutting and ruinous rate wars.
Competition has been diverted in the direction of giv­
ing better facilities, faster time, privileges or the like,
and it is found that this affords the soliciting agents
all the scope that is necessary.
To what Mr.
Delano says we may add that the adoption
of the clearing-house system in this country has been
frequently advocated, and it would seem that in the
end some such device will have to be resorted to if
continued rate cutting, which is the bane of the Amer­
ican system, is to be prevented. Mr. Delano observes
that incidentally and indirectly the clearing-house has
done much towards keeping the railways in touch one
with the other, assisting not infrequently toward the
adoption of standard rates, co les of signals, &c. As a
bureau of general statistics it does an immense work
and affords a ready means of settling accounts between
companies usingfeach other's rolling stock.
The capitalisation of the Eaglish railways is about
3 times that of our own roads. The explanation is
that the English railways have been built more perma­
nently and expensively and have had to pay high Par­
liamentary costs and land damages, and finally have
been capitalized for every cent which they have cost
and have charged to capital account every improvement
in Way and Works and Equipment. In this country,
Mr. Delano truthfully says, we often lose sight of the
fact that many of the railways in the United States
have paid for betterments, amounting in some cases to
complete reconstruction of their roads, entirely out of
earnings, charging this expense to cost of operating in­
stead of to capital account. In England it is perhaps
true that there has been little if any stock watering,
but it is also true that practically every expense outside
of operating expenses has been charged to capital ac­
count.
One other point Mr. Delano makes is worth noting.
He points ont that in recent years the community at
large in Great Britain, looking with envy at the pros­
perity of the railways, has made its influence felt in
various parliamentary inquiries and by the passage of
laws reducing the hours of labor on the railways, and
finally by the passage of a law somewhat like our InterState Commerce law. Thus far, however, the railways
have been more fortunate than ours in that they have
been allowed to regulate competition to some extent by
money pools and by contracts in regard to division of
traffic, which are enforceable by law, and any long-andshort-haul clause Mr. Delano states has proved impos­
sible on account of water competition at so many
points.
IT A L Y A ND T H E A B YSSINIA N Q V EST I ON.
The saying is an old one, ex nihilo nihil fit. The
sentiment is equally old and equally true that from
small and apparently insignificant causes great issues
result. St. Petersburg is a long way distant from
Magdala, or any of the more populous centres of
Abyssinia ; and the Italian capital is far removed from
all of them. There is a little difficulty between Italy
and Russia of which Abyssinia may be said to be the
cause. That this difficulty should assume any dan­
gerous proportions there is no immediate likelihood.

I UK CHRONICLE.

But there are so many cross purposes among the Euro
pean nations, anil there are on African soil so many
complications in which the European Powers are in­
terested, that what seems a trifle, by becoming involved
in other matters or through the bad blood engendered
from other causes might unexpectedly, and even sud­
denly, assume a character well fitted to inspire alarm.
We have had occasion frequently of late in these
columns to refer to the policy of llussia and of France.
We have seen evidences of its aggressiveness both in
Africa and in Asia, and we have not been permitted to
dou t that these two Powers, constituting the dual alliauce, have been lending encouragement to a belief that
they are preparing to measure their strength when the
proper time comes with the Triple Alliance or, which
is the same, the other great Powers. We are not of
those who see war in every rustle of the diplomatic
sails. On the contrary we can discover numerous and
powerful reasons why the European Powers should
dread a general outbreak of hostilities. Tuere is no
doubt unrest. There are many things which some of
the Powers would like to see changed. There are con­
cealed purposes. There are suppressed ambitions.
But war is dreaded—dreaded because of its costliness,
because of its destructiveness and because of the un­
certainty of its results. Whde we do not see anything
to encourage the feeling that actual war is imminent,
we need' not close our eyes to what may, without any
impropriety, be called diplomatic strife. It is this
kind of strife which constitutes the Abyssinian diffi­
culty, and it is the possibility of its becoming mixed
up with other and kindred matters which renders it
especially worthy of our attention.
It is matter of common knowledge that since 1S89
Abyssinia, by treaty arrangement, has been under the
protection of Italy. According to that arrangement
Menelek, King of Abyssinia, was to enter into no nego­
tiations with other nations except through the agency
of the King of Italy, and in the matter of industrial
and commercial concessions preference was to be given
to the Italians. Since 1889 the sphere of Italian
influence has been greatly enlarged, having now a coast
line of over 1,200 geographical miles, with undefined
landward limits. To aid Abyssinia in the matter of
opening up commercial routes, Italy came to the aid
of Menelek with a loan of four million francs, the
King pledging himself to use all the influence of his
Government to suppress the slave trade. It now ap­
pears that Menelek has proved unfaithful, disregarding
the terms of the treaty, and among other things ignor­
ing his pledges in regard to the slave trade. This
treaty arrangement between Italy and Abyssinia, it
is to be borne in mind, received, directly or by implica­
tion, the sanction of all the great treaty-making Pow­
ers of Europe, England and Italy particularly having
a perfect understanding and workiug in perfect har­
mony. So much is the Italian Government incensed
at the conduct of King Menelek that the necessity of
active, armed interference has been under serious con­
sideration.
On July 25, reference having been made in the Italian
Parliament to the state of affairs in Abyssinia, and to the
peculiar attitude of Russia and France, Baron Blanc
stated that all the Powers, with the excepiion of Russia
and France, had recognized Italy’s position in Abyssinia,
and that these last had not protested. Menelek, he
added, had flagrantly violated the terms of the pro­
tocol prohibiting the slave trade. He had no fear,
however, for the success of the Italian colony in Abys­

fVon. LXI.

sinia, and if the necessity should arise Italy would
defend it with all the resources at her command. In
the course of his address he made the reassuring state­
ment that with regard to the entire Nile Valley and
East Africa generally there was between England and
Italy a complete understanding.
It is more than ordinarily suggestive that in these
circumstances an ecclesiastical commission accom­
panied by certain civil dignitaries should arrive from
Abyssinia in the Russian Capital, their ostensible ob­
ject being to cultivate friendly relations with the Rus­
sian Church. In the circumstances it is not unnatural
that the Abyssinian ecclesiastics should be made much
of in the Russian capital and have been the recipients
especially of many costly presents. This visit of the
Abyssinians to St, Petersburg acquires some importance
from the fact that a somewhat similar visit, although
attended with very different results, was made in 1889
by Captain Atchinoff. Atchinoff’s object was to insert
the Russian wedge politically, but he attempted it
under the guise of religion; and as his expedition
proved an utter failure the Russian Government found
it convenient to repudiate both him and his
mission. No one can blame the Abyssinians for making
a friendly visit to St. Petersburg, nor can any one with
good reason blame the Russians for treating them
kindly; but there is something intensely absurd in
finding any close resemblance or any historic connec­
tion between the Church in Abyssinia and the Church
in Russia. The one is a daughter of the Coptic
Church of Egypt; the other is a daughter of the great
Eastern Church, which broke off from that of Rome
and shared the fate of the Byzantine empire.
There would appear to be more diplomacy in this
movement than the Abyssinians can justly be credited
with. It is not difficult to perceive that if they can
be taught to believe that there is any relation of a
special or historic kind between their Church and that
of Russia a point will have been made in favor of the
latter Power—a point which will tell against Italy.
Tne Abyssinians will look upon the Russians as their
brethren in the faith. Pilgrimages will become com­
mon. Ties of religion will beget political affinities.
It is, though, more than doubtful whether common
sense and the known facts of history could be over­
come by any such deceptions on the one band and un­
founded beliefs on the other.
The Abyssinians’ visit to Russia would not of itself
merit serious consideration. Quite naturally,however, it
is assumed that the scheme owes its origin to Russia or
to France, or to both, more than to Abyssinia. This
view may be erroneous, but the public finds it difficult
to disconnect the visit from a certain state of feeling
which at the present moment is felt to be common to
France and Russia, and from certain other movements
which appear, and are thought to point in the same
direction.

In the Southwest the distinctively grain-carrying
roads, as for instance the Kansas City Fort Scott &
Memphis, the Central Branch Union Pacific, the St.
Joseph & Grand Island, have fallen behind in their
earning?, and the Texas & Pacific, we have seeD, also has
a decrease. Bat such systems as the AtchisoD, the
Missouri Pacific and the Denver & Rio Grande have made
very substantial additions to the totals of their earn­
ings last year.

In the Northwest all the larger roads record decided
improvement over a year ago; a few of the smaller
roads have trifling losses, chiefly because of the dimin­
ished grain traffic.

The ea3t-and-west trunk lines have had the benefit
of increased activity in the manufacturing and coal­
mining districts, and hence are able to make good
comparisons with last year, notwithstanding their
smaller tonnage in grain.

In our issue of July 27th we referred to the action of several
of the States in abolishing days of grace on promissory notes,
bills of exchange, etc., and also furnished a statement show­
ing the existing rule in that regard in each of the States. It
appears that in addition to the other States mentioned, Illi­
nois has recently passed a law repealing the provision allow­
ing days of grace. Through the kindness of the First Na*3a«*k of Chicago we have been furnished a copy of this
new “fntute, and in order to make our record complete we
print it below:
AN ACT to amend sections 15 and 17 of an act entitled
“ An act to revise the law in relation to Dromissory notes,
bonds, due bills and other instruments in writing,” approved
March 18, 1874; in force July 1, 1874. As amended by act
approved June 17, 1891; in force July 1, 1891. Approved
June 4, 1895; in force July 1, 1895.
Be it enacted by the people of the State of Illinois, repre­
sented in the General Assembly, That sections 15 and 17 of an
act entitled “ An act to revise the law in relation to promissorynotes. bonds, due bills and other instruments in writing,” ap­
proved March 18, 1874, in foroe July 1, 1874; as amended
by act approved June 17, 1891, in force July 1, 1891; be and
the same are hereby amended to read as follows, viz.:

THE CHRONICLE.

IVOL. LXI.

^ the new Government will be with the landlords and the
farmers. They have suffered much from the long-continued
agricultural depression, and they are expecting measures to
improve their condition. But Lord Salisbury has already
stated in the House of Lords that he has no panacea to pro­
pose, and how, therefore, he will be able to retain the sup­
port of the agricultural classes is not very clear. For the
time being, however, Lord Salisbury need fear no effective
opposition. He has a majority in the House of Commons as
large as that which enabled Mr. Gladstone to disestablish the
Irish Church, and he is practically absolute in the House of
Lords. The really curious and instructive thing about the
election is that the Independent Labor Party, the Socialists,
the Temperance men and the Bimetallists all proved so
utterly weak. It was a fight entirely between the two old
parties.
Money is more abundant and cheaper than ever, if possible,
and is likely to become even more so before long. It is un­
derstood that the 15 millions sterling net just borrowed by

and therefore he is constantly making grievous mistakes.
The new Grand Vizier, too, is a fanatical Turk, though an
upright man of considerable capacity.
The fear, therefore, is very general that Europe may be
kept in anxiety for the remainder of the year in spite of all
the exertions of the Great Powers to maintain peace. There
is in consequence decided weakness both in Vienna and Ber­
lin. In Paris strong efforts are made to support the market,
but for all that there is a good deal of apprehension there
also, and those who are supporting the market are embar­
rassed by the difficulties of both Spain and Italy, Especially
the great coat of the Cuban insurrection is almost certain to
bring about a fall in Spanish funds. For the ftrst time for
many months, therefore, French selling- of South African
securities has largely exceeded the buying; and the selling
too is on the part of the greater operators. The South Afri­
can department is therefore unquestionably weak. Prices,
it will be recollected, are extravagantly high; and so many
people are absent, both from London and Paris, holiday­
making that it looks as if there would be a decline for some
weeks to come. There is, however, no unwieldy or very
weak account open. A great break is hence not probable,
but rather a slow sagging of prices.
The British railway dividends are fairly satisfactory—quite
as good indeed as could have been expected. Yet the market
is somewhat disappointed and British railway stocks are
lower. In spite of that, however there are undoubted signs
of a general improvement in trade, and especially the wool
market continues very strong.
One other cause of disquiet is the acknowledged difficulties
of some of the reconstructed Australian banks, A windingup order has been granted in the case of the City of Mel­
bourne Bank ; and at a meeting held here on Wednesday it
was intimated by the Official Receiver that the balance sheets
issued for some time past by the directors do not accord with
the bank hooks ; and furthermore, that the directors have
large overdrafts from the bank. A committee has been ap­
pointed to recommend what measures should be adopted. It
is generally expected that the bank will be wound up and that
at least three or four other banks will likewise have to liqui­
date, But there i$ no probability of any troubles here because
of this.

The Money M arket and Financial S ituation.—Business
in Wall Street during the week now closing has been of the
usual mid-summer type. The few people who remain in town
have ample time to discuss the present and prospective move­
ment of gold, the splendid crop outlook, the demoralized
anthracite coal situation and the future possibilities of the
markets. At the moment there are no features of importance
and the Street is awaiting developments.
Members of the Government Bond Syndicate have received
notice th at there will be a distribution to-day of between 34
and 35 per cent of the capital contributed for the operations
of the Syndicate. This payment leaves a balance of 30 per
cent still remaining to be distributed.
The m arket to-day for both bonds and stocks has been
strong, and in some cases the advance is notable. Many of
the grangers are higher and Manhattan Elevated has gained
3 points during the day’s trading.
Money continues very abundant and rates are the lowest of
the season.
The open market rate* for call loans during the week on
stock and bond collaterals have ranged from % to lj* per
cent. To-day’s rates on call were 1 per cent. Prim, com­
mercial paper is quoted at 3.1* to 4 ', per cent.
The Bank of England weekly statement on Thursday
showed a decrease in bullion of £35,954, and the percentage
Of reserve to liabilities was 57-85 against 57-75, last week; the
discount rate remains unchanged at 2 per cent. The Bank of
France shows an increase of 1,425,000 francs in gold and
900,000 francs in silver.
The New York City Clearing-House banks In their statement
of Aug, $ showed a decrease in the reserve held of *389,000
a n d a surplus over the required reserve of *40,917,175
against 141,995,375 the previous week.

Foreign Exchange.—The market for foreign exchange has
been dull but firm. Drawings against future shipments of
grain and cotton have appeared, but not in sufficient amount
to affect rates. It is reported that some bills have been sold
against gold shipments. The total shipments of gold during
the week amount to *1,712,000, of which *362,090 goes to­

State and Railroad Bonds.—Sales of State bonds a t the
Board include $180,000 Tenn. settlement 3s at 90% to 91;
*37,000 Virginia fund, debt 2-3s of 1991 at 03.'8 to 63; $4,000
Alabama Class A at 1091i, and *5,000 North Carolina con. 4s
at 104ft.
The market for railroad bonds has been generally steady to
firm under limited transactions.
The Atchisons have been the most active and are well sup­
ported. There has been a liberal movement of Che*. & Ohio
issues, which close fractionally lower than ourlast quotations.
Clev. Lor. & Wheeling bonds are evidently in favor with in­
vestor* and were bid up on Tuesday. Duluth & 1. R. are in
demand, as no more are to be issued, and recent judicial de­
cisions are favorable to the company. They advanced nearly
2 points on Wednesday.
U.
S Cordage 1-ts have continued to move upward, as con­
siderable amounts of them have teen deposited under the re­
organization plan Other active issues include Col. & 9th
Ave.. Lex. Ave, & P. F., Mo. Kan. & Tex., Mob. & Ohio, No.
Pacific, Or. Short Line, Wabash, Un, Pacific. Tex. & Paciilo,
St. L. Southwest , Reading and Southern Railway bonds.
Railroad nnd Miscellaneous Slocks.—The stock market
has teen dull, even for a mid-summer dull period. Changes
in quotations are generally without significance, and fluctua­
tions h a v e been within narrow limits. There is reported to
have been some selling of stocks for the foreign account,
which, if true, may explain the fact that some of the
leading grangers, Louisville & Nashville and the Southern
Railway shares have teen weak. On the other hand, Cen­
tral of New Jersey, Lackawanna and Reading are frac­
tionally higher, and Manhattan Elevated has advanced
nearly 5 points. Every day of favorable weather now
foreshadows increased earnings in the near future for the
corn-carrying roads, and all the Southwestern shares are
strong.
The industrials have been less active and generally more
steady than usual. The highest and lowest for Am. Sugar
during the week are 1151, and 112ft, and it closes at 114ft.
Chicago Gas has gained about 3 points.
Distilling has been steady. U. S. Leather has continued
weak, and the preferred has dropped 2 points. General
Electric has developed some activity and advanced over 2
points on various rumors and theories in regard to its busi­
ness and prospects.

Chicago Sc South Side Kapid T ransit.—In accordance
with a resolution passed by the board of directors July
24, 1895, a special meeting of the stockholders of this com­
pany is called for Tuesday, September 3, for the pur­
p o se of considering measures to be taken to discharge the in­
terest on first mortgage bonds which was due April 1, 1895,
and also the interest on extension bonds due July 1, 1895. The
semi-annual statement which accompanied this call shows a
gain over the same period for last year, yet the earnings are
still far from suflicient to meet this indebtedness.

Kentucky Sc Indiana Bridge.—The receivers of this com­
pany have been ordered by the Louisville Trust Company,
trustee, to pay out of the funds in their hands the amount
due on the coupons of first mortgage bonds, which fell due
March 11, 1895, with interest at 6 per cent. The payment is
to be made as soon as practicable.—V. 60, p. 1100.
Knoxville Electric Railway.—The sale of this railway to
the reorganization committee composed of a majority of the
bondholders has been confirmed by Judge Clark. Bids
were reopened on the rapid transit line. W. G. McAdoo, Jr.,
representing the bonds held in trust by the American Loan
& Trust Company, raised the bid from $13,500 to $20,000.
Referring to the bill filed by George W. Henderson, receiver
of the Knoxville Electric Railway, against the Union Trust
Company of Philadelphia, to recover $247,000 because of the
alleged diversion of said sum from corporate purposes, W. G.
McAdoo, J r., former President of the railway company, has
made the following statement to the Southern Associated
Press :
The sole claim In the case is th at the agreem ent betw een the trust
oompuuy and myself, that out of the $350,000 of bonds $200,000
Bhoulil be employed in the purchase of the old street railways of
Knoxville, was Illegal. There is no charge that any of the bonds were
applied to my personal use. The $200,OuO in question were used in
paying the owners of the old horse-car lines in K noxville for thenstock, from which it not only received no profit, but to which f added
more than $20,000 to pay the purchase price of $220,OoO. The re­
m aining $150,000 of bonds were used to improve the property The
recovery sought from the trust company is based on purely technical
grounds. There is absolutely nothing in the whole transaction which
in any way is discreditable to me.

be leased iu perpetuity to the Lake Erie & Western, which
company will own the stock and guarantee as to principal
and interest $2,500,000 first mortgage 5 per cents is-ued at

which is to be expended on the roadbed and for equipment of
the leased line. The acquisition of the Northern Ooio Railway
will give the Lake Erie & Western Company access to the
freight-producing regions of the Mahoning Valley and th e
Pittsburg, the Allegheny and the McConrellsvillecoke regions.
The management of the Lake Erie & Western Company is

New York & Harlem Street Railway Lines—Storage Bat­
tery.—The Fourth and Madison Avenue street car lioes in
New York City, which are owned by the New York & H ar­
lem Railroad Co., it is announced, are soon to be operated by
means of storage batteries
Chloride accumulators are to be
used of a kind which, it is said, are already in use iu Paris,
France, and in Birmingham, England. Trips of 70 miles are
made with one charging of the battery. The batteries for the
New York cars, now under construction, will be suspended
under the center of the car, the tray containing them
being readily detachable for the purpose of charging by
means of an elevator beneath the track. A car can thus be
loaded and unloaded in about half a minute. Any car body,
it is said, is adapted for use in this service, so that a com­
pany adopting the system can use its present car bodies.
New York New Haven & H artford RR.—Notice is given
that owners of convertible debenture certificates are entitled
to subscribe at par for additional convertible debenture cer­
tificates, to be issued by said company Oct. 1, 1895, in the
proportion of one-quarter of the amount of their holdings

New York Lake Erie Sc Western RR,—It is generally un­
derstood that the plan of reorganization has been practically
decided upon, and that its simultaneous promulgation here
and abroad is likely to be made in the near future. The cash
requirements of the plan are to be underwritten by a syndi­
cate, in which London bankers will take a prominent part.—
V. 60, p. 1105.
New York Susquehanna & W estern.—This company is
reported to have extended for seven years about $300,000 car
trust notes which were incurred last winter in the purchase
of new rolling stock. This was one of the sources of embar­
rassment to the company earlier this year.—V. 60, p. 1059.
Norfolk & Western RR.—The London Reorganization Com­
mittee, under date of July 25, issued the following circular to
the security holders : “ In response to numerous inquiries
from security holders, the committee consider it desirable to
publish the following information regarding the position of
the company and the prospects of its reorganization. At the
instance of the committee a thorough investigation of and
exhaustive report on the accounts of the company for the
last three years has been made by the well-known account­
ants, Messrs. Price, Waterhouse & Co., the result of which,
save some modifications of minor importance, is considered
by the committee as confirming the accuracy of the com­
pany’s reports and accounts. Copies of this report are at the
disposal of security holders on application to the Secretary,
care of Messrs. Brown, Shipley & Co. The question of the
reorganization of the property on a safe and permanent basis
has been receiving the earnest attention of the committee,
and the negotiations with the New York and Amsterdam
committees, as well as with representatives of other large
foreign interests, justify the belief that a plan of reorganiza­
tion can be submitted for the approval of security holders as
soon as the affairs of the company are in a sufficiently settled
condition. In this connection the committee wish to call your
attention to the fact that they have been confronted by the un­
expected difficulty of a serious strike, which has for the* time be­
ing stopped work on the majority of the coal properties along
the company’s lines. It is a well-known fact that coal forms
an important part of the company’s traffic, and the outcome
of this strike, involving as it does the question of the rates
which the railroad company will in future receive for the
carrying o f coal, will, therefore, have an important bearing

THE CHRONICLE.

on the future earning capacity of the railroad. The strike
has now lasted since May 1st, but reports from the United
States speak hopefully of an early though only gradual
resumption of work by the strikers. Until, however, this has
actually taken place, and there has !>eeri time to ascertain the
probable effect of the strike on the company’s coal traffic.it
would be impossible to fix with a sufficient degree of certainty
what would be a safe limit of future fixed charges,
which must be the first consideration of any reorganization
plan. Security holders may rest assured that no unnecessary
delay will take place m putting a plan of readjustment before
them; but under the circumstances above described the com­
mittee consider it to the interest of the security holders to post­
pone the publication of a reorganization plan in order to avoid
the danger of either putting fixed charges on th“ property be­
yond the limit of safety, or on the other hand of imposing un­
due sacrifices on holders. Mean while the receivers hav* obtained
authority from the Court, under date March 23. 1895, to pro­
vide for the prompt payment of the coupons of the general
mortgage bomls and old divisional lien bonds, the New River
division first mortgage bonds and the Scioto Valley first
mortgage bonds,”
—The Secretary of the Norfolk & Western Bondholders’
Committee, 15 Wall Street, has made a statement in which he
■ ays : “ The question of a reorganization of the property on
a safe and permanent basis has been receiving the earnest at­
tention of the committee, and the negotiations with the Lon­
don and Amsterdam committees as well justify the belief
that a plan of a reorganization can certainly be submitted for
the approval of security holders within a few months.” The
report of Messrs. Price, Waterhouse & Company, the public
accountants, has been issued in pamphlet form and can be
obtained from A, H. H. Boise-vain, 15 Wall Street, New
York, and also from the London Committee.—V. 80, p, 874.
Northern Pacific R ailroad.—Proceedings were begun in
Seattle on Wednesday before judge Hanford in the Federal
Court of the Washington District by Silas W. Pettit, general
counsel for the Northern Pacific RK, Co., representing Presi­
dent Ives, to have receivers Oakes, Payne and Rouse re­
moved. Mr. Ives charged in his affidavit that the receiver*
were influenced by Edward D. Adams, and that they were
working with Henry Villard. He alleged that the Wisconsin
Court in appointing the receivers had no jurisdiction, as
the Northern Pacific never had any property or interests in
the Eastern district o f that State, Judge Hanford wil! make
an order for the receivers to show cause on next Friday why
they should not be removed.
Bray ton Ives, President of the Northern Pacific Railroad,
sayt: •• The application is founded chiefly on the ground
that the court at Milwaukee w without jurisdiction in the
matter, not a mile of the road being In tnat district, and on
the course of the receivers as shown by their records.
Receiver Henry C. Payne, who arrived at Spokane, Wash.,
on Thursday, in company with Judge Jenkins of Milwaukee,
is quoted a* speaking regarding the application for removal of
the receiver* as follows:
” TUi* Is the sam e »ld troaliUi—thrashing o v er old straw between

Speculation in c o t to n for fu ture delivery at this m arket has
shown moderate proportions. Unfavorable reports regarding
condition of plant were circulated w ith some freedom and
served to sustain a -lightly bullish feeling, but operators as a
rule w* re inclined to postpone fresh ventures until the appear­
ance of monthly crop report from Government Bureau. S atur­
day 'a deal was fair and prices secured a net gain of 7 points,
stimulated by a leas favorable exhibit in our weekly crop sum­

mary than had previously been calculated U[>on. On Monday
10 points gross and 1 points net advance was shown, and
Tuesday gained 1 point net, the business during both days
proving tight and principally local. A fter three days'
suspension of trading during bank holidays, Liver­
pool reopened on Wednesday fairly active and stronger, which
gave tem porary stimulus here, but only d points were gained
an d , general demand failing, ileal rates* were at t point net
low. Yesterday about 3 points net recovery was secured in
constAjuecee of covering by local short*, To-day's market
was very slow, with very U nited fluctuation* and no new
feature. Cotton on th e spot found fair home demand early
in the week, but spinners subsequently refut-d to follow an
advance made in cost. Middling uplands close a t t L,c .

L o u is ia n a C o tto n R e p o r t . —The report of th e Louisiana
State Board of Agriculture on the condition of cotton August
1 was issued on the 7th inst. as follows:
Some parishes report a slight improvement, as fields are clear of
grass at last, while in others the crop is not y et laid by. In Concordia
Parish cotton is shedding very much, is sappy and is not fruiting well.
Picking will com m ence about October 1. Us Soto P irish repor's rust
and caterpillars. East Carrollton Parish advices say the plant is small,
not frultiug and late. Even with a favorable season and iaie frost do
not believe one half crop will be made, tu Natchitoches Parish cater­
pillars arc numerously reported on all plantations, and in Rlohlauds
Parish .joints are too long; hence poorly fruited.
S h i p p i n g N e w s . — The exports of cotton from the United
States the past week, as per la te s t m a il returns, have reached
4,403 bales. So far as the Southern ports are concerned, these
are the same exports reported by telegraph and published in

Oats for future delivery have been moderately active, but
at declining prices, due to free offerings, prompted .by favor­
able crop prospects and in sympathy with the weakness of
corn. In the spot market business has been fairly active,
and for new crop prices have declined. The sales yesterday
included No. 2 mixed at 25c. in elevator and No. 2 white at
28®28'qc. in elevator. To-day the market was quiet and un­
changed. The spot market was firmer. The sales included
No, 2 mixed at 25JgC. in elevator and No. 2 white at 2t&£c,

W oolen Goods—Business in this department has been
8,000
quiet and mostly confined to the better grades of fancy
1,606 worsteds, the primary demand for other descriptions being
largely exhausted. A disagreeable feature has appeared in
1.000
3.000 the all-wool division of men’s-wear light weights in the shape
1.000 of concessions from opening prices by some agents who have
been disappointed with the results of their sales up to date,
and there is considerable irregularity noticeable in makes
ranging around §1 per yard. Worsted fabrics do not share
in this weakness, as they have relatively done better than
woolens. Cloakings are in improving request in rough-faced
styles chiefly, whilst overcoatings rule quiet. There is a good
re-order demand for woolen and worsted dress goods, particu­
larly in bright fabrics, and prices are firm. Flannels and
blankets very firm, with moderate sales.
F oreign D r y G oods,—A good general business in imported
28,000 merchandise has been done at second hands, but the primary

bleached to 7%c. per yard. This movement has not been fol­
lowed to any extent by other makes, but conditions appear to
be all in favor of a higher general level prevailing before the
close of the month. There has been no material change in
brown sheetings, although occasional advances in both coarse
and fine yarn goods show the tendency of the market. Bro wn
drills, ducks and osnaburgs are very firm, with a m od­
erate demand. Wide sheetings are generally regarded as
a disappointment, as they continue dull and w ithout
improvement in price. Colored cottons show signs of
greater firmness, particularly in denims, for which
there is a better demand and less disposition on the part of
leading sellers to meet it. Ticks, checks and stripes and
plaids firm but quiet. Cotton flannels and blankets advanced
slightly in one or two makes and very firm throughout.
There has been no change in kid-finished cambrics or other lin­
ings. Business in printed fabrics improving, fair re-orders
coming in for dark fancies and specialties in dress and shirting
styles." Indigo blues and shirting prints sold up and prices of
American lines will be advanced J^c. on the 15th inst. Other
regular prints firm. Staple ginghams are very firm and sell­
ing fair; dress ginghams' quiet. Print cloths have advanced
to 2 lo-16c. flat for extras, with good sales thereat. Odd goods
firm on the basis of 4%c. for 38J^-inch 64 squares.

York, F r i d a y , P . M., August 9, 1895.
The importations and warehouse withdrawals of dry goods
The cotton goods market shows remarkable strength in face at this port for the week ending August 8, and since
of a generally quiet demand, as although there has been more January 1, 1895, and for the corresponding periods of last
doing this week than last, buying is still far from active. The year are as follows:
upward movement in bleached cottons has made further
a

progress, with a second advance within ten days reported in
0
Lonsdale 4-4 bleached, and the impression prevails quite gen­
§*>E?Sg‘S
erally that ere many weeks pass yet another rise will have to

be recorded. Brown goods show a . hardening tendency also
; r g:
in some directions and printed cotton fabrics are stiffening.
P
The condition of the market pratically renders it inde­
pendent of the course of raw material, but still
any influence exercised by the latter has been in
favor of sellers. Men’s-wear woolens in light weights
have shown signs of weakness, some agents receding more or

600, and in July, 1892, it was #4,139,100. Heavy as the
sales for laat month were they do not quite reach the
amount marketed in June, which was #15,907,441.
Prices have continued high for all of the moat desirable
issues, and many of the lists of bids reported have been
unusually long.
in the following table we give the prices which were
paid for July loans to the amount of #15,180,160,
issued by 66 municipalities. The aggregate of sales
for which no price was reported is #109,500 and the
