the weather of the past week has not been good for the crops.
Rain has been frequent and the temperature has fallen,
thus pointing to a late harvest. However, taken as a whole
the commercial outlook has rather brightened, and the cheapness of money will no doubt effectively assist in consolidating
any improvement which may set in.

A Norwegian 3i^ per cent loan for £1,700,000
has just been
introduced by C. J. Hambro & Sons, the price of issue being
98 per cent. A Portuguese 5 per cent loan for £2,400,000 will,
it is understood, shortly be introduced here and on the Continent by Messrs. Stem Brothers. The prospectus has appeared
of the Governor and Company of the Island of Anticosti,
limited, with a capital of £300,000, the object being to acquire
and develop the resources of the Island of Anticosti, situated
in the Gulf of St. Lawrence.
The English railway dividends so far announced have been
about what were anticipated, with one or two exceptions,
notably the Great Eastern and North Eastern, on which systems heavier returns than those notified had been calculated
upon. Annexed is the list:

Railroads of the United States.— From the introduction
to Poor's Railroad Manual for 1856; just issued, the statistics
are obtained concerning the railroads of the t^ted States.
The introduction says
"It will be seen that the number of miles of railroad constructed in the United States in 18*5 was 3,131, tbe aggregate
mileage for the whole country completed at the close of the
year Ming 138,907; the rate of increase during the year being
2*4 per cent. The mileage, not including elevated roads, from
which returns of earnings and traffic operations for the past
year were received, equaled 123,110 miles, against 118,173
miles for 1884. The share capital of all the railroads making
returns, including the elevated railMadi", equaled |3,817,097,883, against $3,702,616,686 for 1884; their funded debts,
$3,765,727,066, sgainst $8,669,116,772 for 1884; their unfunded
debt, $231^108,281, against $244,666,596 for 1884, The amount
of share capital and indebtedness of all the companies for 1885'
equaled $7,842,533,179, against $7,e76,£99,Ufi4 for 1664, the
increase equalling $160,134,133, the rate of increase beinf;
about 2-2 per cent. The earnings of all the roads making returns, including elevated roads, equaled $772,58f<,S;5;!, against

equaled $.M9,690|902; from pas8enger8,$200,863,911 from miscellaneotia eonrces, $51 ,998,980. The operations and expenses of all
the roads for tbe year equaled $503,074,902, the net earnings
being $269,493,931. The gross earnings opon the entire capital
inveated eq^ed very nearly 10 per cent the net nearly S-IS

202 per cent, against 248 per cent for 1884, The earnings per
mile of lines operated the past year equaled fO,2f',.'i, against
$6,668 per mile for;l884, the decrease per mile ef|n»IIing $a98,
the rate of decrease per mile being 5'8 per cent. In the meantime the tonnage moved by the railroads has increased about
10 per cent, being 487,040,099 tons in 1885, against 869,074,749
tons in 1884, The movement of tonnage by rail is steadily
increasing, there being at the same time a slight falling off in
rates, the charge for moving a ton of merchandise one mile in
1885 being 1057 cents, sgainst 1124 cents in 18!:4. Tbe past
year undoubtedly marks a point of lower depression in tlie
earnings of our railroads in ratio to their cost and mileage
than is likely to be witnessed for some years to come, the
present year showing a considerable improvement upon the

The fiscal years of many railroad companies terminate at
other periods than December 31, and their mileage is reported
ngly, and of the above 128,966 miles of track laid to
ter 31, 1885, some 1,837 miles were laid after the close
of tto fiscal years of different companies during I'^s.'S. The
total mileage reported, therefore, by all railroad companies to

EASTERIT RAILTFAT,
IN WASHINGTON TKRUITORY.
The proposed Uno of this railway is from the City of Seattle, on Puget
Sound, alnng the ."liorc.-j of Lake Union, W.isliiUKton and Sani.araish to
and tlirouirii the Snoiiiialniie Pa«8 of the Cascade Mountains to the City
of Walla Walla, with a branch from gome point on the main Hue east oil
the Cascade range to the City of Spokane Palls, a total mllcago of about
5' 10 miles, with the right to oimHtnict Huch branch lines north or
south
of said lines as may hereafter be determined upon.
The cost of the road, including equipment, estimated, is as follows:
To Walla Walla, 261 miles
$4,962,254
Add 200 miles to Spokane Falls
2,466,200
Branches to coal andiron, four miles
42,724
$7,471,178
™^ .
The initial point of the road is that part of the harbor of Seattle known
a^ Smith's Cove, where the company owns more than halt a mUe of
water front and an extensive tract of land admirably adapted to the
election of shops, wharves, piers, coal bnnkers. ore chutes, elevators,
rolling mills, and every species of terminal property which would be
reiiuired for the tide-water tennlnus of any one of the most extensive
railways in the United States. It Is considered the best part of the harbor of Seattle, which has no superi'iroa the whole Pacific Coast.
The design is to connect this company's track with the existing track
along the city water front. For this purpose only about one mile of
track will be required, which wUI oitabllsh connection with every road
now running into the city and with every wharf along the water front.
Tlio right of way for this piirposo has already been secured.
One of the advantage* of this Hue is. th.it, beginning construction at
tide-water, paying business can be done on every mile of new road after
the completion of the tlrst si-c miles to Union Bay, on Lake Washington.
From Union Bay to Squak, thirty-four miles, the line runs through a
country with great timber and .agricultural resources, much of which
will be immediately available to furnish traffic. At Squak there Is a
beautiful and productive valley whose agricultural resources are highly
developed, but which is entirely without any decent means of transportation.
In the mountains which rise high above this valley is one of the
largest and most valuable deposits of coal in the country. Besponeibla
parlies now in the coal business are ready to open these mines and will
guarantee to ship 500 tons per day at 70 cents per ton as soon as the
road is open, and 1,000 tons per day within six months thereafter.
Under the plan of cajiltalization the Bonds and Stock upon this first
division of 40 miles would be

Notice is given of the opening of a New York Agency at
No. 71 Wall Street, of the London & Brazilian Bank, Limited,
of London, under the charge of Mr. J. Lawrence McKeever.
This bank has a paid-up capital of one million pound sterling
and a reserve fund of £250,000 it has branches throughout Brazil, Portugal and River Plate, and the opening of a
New York Agency is a matter of some interest. The Bank is
fortunate in procuring the services of a gentleman so well
known in social and business circles as Mr. J, Lawrence

of the completion of .be first division, will be ampl.v sufficient to pay

of great present and immense pro-peetive value.

It has not been the eiperience in recent years that a fair rate

or what ditficulty they may have in getting it.
The full report of railroad earnings for July and for seven

only necessary to remark that, taken altogether, this is the
best comparative statement pablished by the Chrot(ici.e since

Nor doe* this include many of the trunk line
reports, as theae have not yet been issued for July, and were
they included, the totals would be still more favorable.

and the tone generally not so good as in previous weeks. The
several cbase* of Texas ft PatSSc bonds have absorbed most attention, and the business in them has l>een very large. Prices have
fluctuated very widely, advancing sharply in the parly dealings

afterward.

Railroail and .Hlscellaneons Stocks.— The stock market
hae been moderately active the past week and speculation was
rather biBk er.
The tendency of prices has b«en downward
and selUSg has been more active than buying, though a part of
the selling was for short account, and this interest is reported
to liave been considerably increased.
There is no unfavorable
change in the general situation t<i account for the decline, but
prices have gradually worked down on bear presoure, assisted
by speculative rumors and the flurry in money. The condition
of the money market has been a decidedly unsettling feature
the past few days, but a temporary stringency in money, or
even a more permanent advance in rates to 4@5 per cent, would
probably not Iiave much effect on stocks. A favorable feature
nas tieen the continued London demand for stocks, which has
recently had so marked an effect on the exchange market; but
to-day London was a seller of Lake Shore and New
A
Central, which declined in consequence.

Trunk Line pool by a rupture between Baltimore & Ohio and
Pennsylvania, but it was found to be of little importtincc.
Texas <fe Pacific has been prominent, fluctuating widely in

creased business in the Wabashes and San Francisco stocks.
There have been few other special features; Manhattan Elevated had a sharp advance on rumors of an increase in the
dividends to 7 per cent. The coal stocks have been active oa
a report of a prolMtble advance in the price of coal, which was
afterwards made.
To-day, Friday, the market was dull and prices generally a
fraction off, though closing a trifle firmer.

GENERAL INVESTMENT NEWS.
Baltimore & Ohio— Central of New Jersey.— At a meeting of the directors of the Jersey Central Kailroad Company,
on Thursday, the joint traffic contract between that road and
The new
the Baltimore & Ohio was formally approved.
agreement recognizes the one already existing between the
Baltimore & Ohio and the Heading road, and under its provisions the Jersey Central, Reading and Baltimore & Ohio lines
will be operated as one road.
The Central agrees to interpose
no objections to the construction of the bridge over the Arthur
Kill to Staten Island, where the Baltimore & Ohio's terminals
are to be situated. "The Baltimore & Ohio also has the right
to do all its business, passenger, express and freight, over its
Staten Island line. It is agreed, however, on the part of the
Baltimore & Ohio that it will not divert its freight business to
Staten Island until after the expiration of two years, and that
it will not divert its passenger and express business until after
six years.
"The Baltimore & Ohio pledges itself to abandon the
idea of building an independent road from Bound Brook to
Staten Island Sound, and from Bound Brook to Elizabeth the
Jersey Central's tracks will be used. It will be nece-sary for
the Baltimore & Ohio to begin building a road starting somewhere in the neighborhood of Elizabeth, two miles from the
Sound, in order that the proper elevation may be reached at
the bridge. The Jersey Central, however, is assured of the
haul from Bound Brook to Elizabeth, a di:<tance of about
Ohio traffic forever. The
twenty miles, on all the Baltimore
settlements are to be made on the pro rata basis. The contract is to continue for 999 years.
Boston &, Lowell.— The 2,U00 shares of new stock of this
company, which were offered at public sale in Boston, July
31, in accordance with the order of the board of directors,
were bought in one block at 128. This new stock has $100
par value, unlike the old stock of the company which had a
par value of $500, and the sale of the 3,000 shares realizes
&
$356,000.
New York & Philadelphia.—At

equity was filed in the United States Circuit Court by the United States Trust Company of New York,

it is now supposed that it means to cross its maiu line at Freeport and build right on to Madison, Wis. So far as can be

8rd. The first board of the company, which under the present charter would be eh cted for a term of three years, will
be an independent one, and have the approval of Messrs.
Schifl, McGhee and Fleming, members of the New York Committee.
Mr. Fleming says that the combined committee is simply an
«;cecutive one, and it does not matter whether Gen. Wistar is
chairman or any one else. Everything possible has been done
for the protection of the bondholders, and he does not know
how the New York Committee, if it continued its labors alone,
could secure any better basis of reorganization.
The committee of Income and Land Grant bondholders,
of which Mr. 8. J. Drake is chairman, calls on the holders of

COMMERCIAL EPITOME.
Friday Night, Aug. 18, 1886.
There has been a flurry in the money market, with a sharp
advance in rates for money on call, and mercantile circlea
have felt it to some extent chiefly in giving a check to speculative action.
The monthly reports of crop prospects have
been made public, and are generally more favorable than had
been expected, except as to corn. Regular trade has been
fair, without showing especial activity. An important decline
in sterling exchange has been one of the f eattures of the week.

TVabash St. Lonis & Pacific—In the Chronicle of June
5, on page 695, was published the proposal of the purchasing
committee to the bondholders of divisional bonds on all parts
of the road east of the Mississippi River. On July 8, a meeting of bondholders was held in New York, the affairs of the
company were discussed, and a committee was appointed to
investigate and report on the proposal offered. This committee,
consisting of Messrs. Henry V. Poor (of Poor's Manual), A. M.
White, J, B. Colgate, H. K. Pomroy and Jacob Stout, made a
full report at a meeting held on the 12th inst,, and practically
period last season.
Coffee on the spot has been in good demand, and closes

Another modification proposed by this committee was that
the holders of overdue coupons may receive cash for one
overdue coupon instead of funding the same, the coupon to
be so paid being the one longest overdue.
The committee's report was adopted by the large vote of
13,706,9.50 bonds in favor of it, to $160,000 against it, and the
following resolution was passed :
" Rftolred, That the report of the Committee be accepted and that
the bondholders here assembled recommend the pnnupt assent of the
holders of all of the mortgitgos on Hues east of the Mississlpiii Ulver to
tile proposition of the Purchasing Committee, if modified in accordance
with the advice of the Bondholders' Committee, as given In the said

The returns have been iximplete from all parts of the belt, and our
on county reports is oomplete. .Much
Held work has been acnomplished during the month of July, resulting,
the abandonment of some lands which were beyond rehowever, in
demption and the thinning out In various localities of the lands from
but from present indications this abandonment isnot calclearing up
culated ro alter our acreage basis. Perhaps no seas in has shown to a
greater extent than this the advantages of thorough cultivation, for
where this has been the case the difference In the outlook of the crop Is
very marked, accounting to a great extent for the conilioting reporta
made from pretty mueli the same section. Glancing over the belt we
ftud that the two Caroduas have continued on the downward scale.
Alabama has made considerable Improvement. Georgia. Mississippi,
Louisiana and Tennessee show some advance, while Arkansas has added
neatly to her former good cundition. Texas, however, has just about
held tier own, and tears are expressed in this latter state of a threatened
drought in localities. Worms are mentioned, but no damage has been
done thus far. The bulk of the crop east of the Mississippi Is. however,
backward, and tlierefore dependent upon favorable conditions from
now on for a maiutenanoe ot the present prospects. The condition of
the crop by States is as follows Virginia, &o., 80 per cent North Carolina, 76; South Carolina, 71; Georgia, 80; Florida, 84; Alabama, 82 j
Tennessee, 91; Arkansas, 97; Mississippi, 84; Louisiana, 82; Texas,

in the Memphis District.— Mesws. Hill, FonCo. of Memphis pu Wished on August 7 their report
on cotton for the month of July as follows:
The weather during July was in the main favorable for cotton. The
continuous rains which fell during June had made it impossible for
farmers to work their crops, and the fair weather that followed enabled
them to clean their fields, and the gloomy prospects as Indicated in our
June report have given way to more cheerfid aoeounts. From all over
the district the reports are that the plant is forming, blooming and boUing well. The present condition of the crop is favoraVde, and as compared with last year at this time Is equally as promising. Tlie picking
season will not begin until toward the close of this month, and will not
become general throughout the district until about the middle of September. The weather during August will have much to do with the
ultimate outcome of the crop, but with favorable seasons the yield wiU
be fully up to that of last year, especially in Arkansas, where the prospects are very bright for a full average crop.

'The flour market shows no new feature. There has been a
moderate demand from the local trade, but dealers and bakers
ee little to encourage purchases beyond their immediate wants.
The shipping demand has been fair. Rye flour and com meal
have been quiet, but a scarcity causes them to be held
higher.

Indian com futures were somewhat depressed early in the
•week, but the market has shown an improving tendency in the
past two or three days, although business in the regular way
•was very dull. There is no doubt that the growing crop has
in some sections been a good deal damaged by drought and the
aggregate yield will fall considerably below an average. Today there was a fresh advance, with the sule of a considerable
line of No. 2 mixed at 51J^c. in store.

Oats declined sharply in the course of Tuesday and Wednesday, especially for lots on the spot and for prompt delivery.
There was an extreme pressure to sell, which met with no
adequate demand. Yesterday the decline was checked, with
some irregularity. To-day there was a very general advance,
but most decided for mixed for prompt delivery.
