CONDITION OF THE NATIONAL BANKS.
The

July quarterly statement of tbe condition ot theNational banks, published in our last number,
presents somq

features

to

which the attention ot the

banking interest needs
directed, and the interesting and elaborate table given
below, furnished by the Comptroller ot the Guirency, affords
all the details
necessary for making the examination. In
certain
respects, the return is a satisfactory one, in othep,
it is not so.
The deposits show a
very large increase upon
those of the same
period of last year, there being in all the
banks of the
country $675,644,604 of individual deposits,
against $557,882,949 for the same period of 1867. This

means that at
present business is not sufficiently remunera¬
tive to, tempt
capital into employment. When legitimate
business, however, is least active, speculatiou is apt to be most
so; and the present condition of the loans
aptly illustrates
this rule. The loans and discounts of the banks
stood, on
the first
Monday of July, at the very large total of $655,525,346, which is about $67,000,000 'over the aggregate at
at the same
period of 1867. Considering that the general
business of the country is unusually dull, none of this increase
can be
regarded as due to an addition to the discounts, and
a

symptom.

THE

;

There is, however, this difference between
the banks in 1860 made their advances to a

capital than at present, their capital being
$422,000,000, and deposits $253,000,000 ; while the capital
of the National banks now is
$419,806,511, and the deposits
$575,644,604. Or, to present the difference in another as¬
pect ; in 1860 the capital was 62 per cent of the loans, and
in 1868, 54
per cent; while the deposits were, in i860, 36J
per cent ot tbe loans, and in 1868, 88 percent.
But although
the loans now are less upon
capital and more upon deposits
than in 1860, yet
considering the very large amount of de¬
posits, it can hardly he fairly assumed that the loans are
imprudently expanded. The very large amount of deposits,
as
compared with eight years ago, very strikingly illustrates
the present comparative stagnancy of trade; and, at the same
time, it suggests a ready explanation of the fact of the prices
of securities being so much higher than in former years.
But the Comptroller’s exhibit given below is particularly
important as showing the condition of the reserves of the
banks, since these figures give us light as to their stability.
No subject is so important to the
people; and if they are once
convinced that the financial machinery is working more
smoothly, more efficiently, and with more safety than any
other we are likely to have in its place, we shall soon hear far
extent upon

less in favor of those unfortunate destructive

measures

which

urged before each succeeding Congress. Fears have been
expressed lest the contraction of the greenback circulation,
and especially the redemption of the Compound Interest Notes ,
would induce the banks to run upon a much smaller reserve.
These apprehensions are now, however, proved to have been
groundless. The official returns show that the banks are
much more than living up to the law. The New York city
are

held, at the date of the statement, $17,200,000 of
available reserve, in excess of the amount required by sec¬
tions 31 and 32 of the National Currency Act, the surplus
being 6.9 per cent over the legal requirement. In the other
cities named in section 31 of the Act, there is an excess of
it is,
therefore, to be concluded that the expansion is mainly reserve amounting to $19,600,000 or 7.92 per cent beyond
upon demand loans, consisting
chiefly of advances upon stoc the legal limit of 25 per cent. The percentage of excess is
collaterals. The amount of railroad stocks has been
increase, largest at Philadelphia, being there 11.8 ; and next at Boston,
during the year $40,000,000 to $50,000,000 by share dm- Chicago, and New Orleans. At Cincinnati, the available
dends or by Mother issues of new
reserve is only 1.6 per cent beyond
stock, and the prices of stoc
the amount required;
are

bauks

generally much higher than a year ago, as will be seen while at Cleveland and Leavenworth it falls below the limit.
These points $re illustrated in an official exhibit given in our
following comparison of prices of leading shares»

is 7.7 per cent, in Pennsylva'
nia 7.8 per cent, and in New Jersey 9.9 per cent. In the
Western States the excess varies between 6.2 per cent in
Indiana to 17.4 per cent in Iowa. The amount of reserve
required at the date of the statement, to be kept in the vaults
of the country banks was $25,100,000; whereas they actually
held $48,800,000. That portion of required reserve allowed
by law to consist of balances due from redeeming agents was
$37,700,000, while the actual amount was $51,700,000. In
word the return, as a whole, must be viewed as satisfactory,
not only as measured by the legal standard, but also as tested
by the requirements of conservative banking. Below we
give the exhibit as sent us ,by the Comptroller of the

satisfactorily refutes
the impression that the latter class of banks have not main¬
tained very conservative regard for their reserve. The reserve
stands lowest in the District of Columbia, Utah and Texas?
where the excess ranges from 2.2 to 4.2 per cent; and highest
in the Southern States, ranging from 21.4 per cent in Georgia,
to 46 per cent in South Carolina.
In the New England
States the ratio of excess is comparatively low, ranging from
6.4 per cent in Vermont to 8.6 per cent in New Hampshire

PACIFIC RAILROAD OF MISSOURI.
The Pacific Railroad of Missouri extends from St. Louis

directly west to the Kansas line, 283 miles, where it forms
a close connection with the Union Pacific (E. Div.) Railroad,
already completed to Coyote, 356 miles beyond that point,
making the whole distance from the Mississippi River to
the present western terminus of the joint lines, 369 miles.
It also connects at Kansas City with the Missouri River
Railroad, extending thence to Leavenworth, 33 miles, and

operated under lease by the Pacific Company.
is one of the great Land-Grant and StateAid corporations of Missouri. It was chartered February
12, 1849, and organized January 30, 1850. Tn June of the
latter year the surveys for the projected line were com¬
menced, and July 4, 1851, the formal breaking of ground
took place. Construction was carried on with frequent
interruptions through the following fifteen years, and was
completed only in October, 1865, when the whole line was
brought into operation. The details of operations through
the intermediate years are given in an article published
in
the Chronicle of October 27, 1866. We refer to this arti¬
cle also for other valuable statistics not
repeated in our
present number.
The Southwest branch of the Pacific

Railroad, constructed
chiefly on credit and State aid, and which formerly belonged
to this company, has been sold to a new
organization, and
will form the first link in the
projected Atlantic and Pacific
Railroad. In the following review its accounts have been
separated from those of the present Pacific Company.
The equipment of the Pacific Railroad is now sufficient
for the business transacted on it.
The number of engines
placed on the roa-l since the commencement of operations
has been 63.
On the 1st March, 1868, there were on the
line 52, 5 of the 63 having been condemned, and 6 turned
over

to the

Southwest branch.

At the

date the

same

com¬

had 41 passenger, 6 mail, 17 baggage and express, 30
caboose, 270 box, 224 flat, 175 stock, and 7 other cars; also
25 stationary engines for
pumping water. The sleeping car
company had 4 cars on the road, and the St. Louis and
Pacific Express freight line 50 box cars.
The list of engines and cars owned ‘and in use

company on the first of March, 1864-68, both inclusive,

The whole line from St. Louis to Kansas

City (283 miles)
brought into operation October 2, 1865. For the year
ending February 29,1866, the gross earnings per mile were
$7,100 46, and in the year ending February 29, 1868, they
were $10,613
71, an increase of $3,493 25, or 49*07 per
cent.
The operating expenses in the latter
year were
greater than the gross earnings of the former year. In the
was

meanwhile the nett

from

$1,590 57 per mile
$3,438 35, an increase of $1,847 78, or 116 per cent.
The decrease in operating expenses is remarkable: in 18645 they were 80*74 per cent of gross
earnings, and in 1867-8
67.61 per cent, a decrease equivalent to 16*26
per cent.
These facts are encouraging ; they show not only that the
business of the line is rapidly increasing, but also that it has
been managed with an intelligent economy that augurs well
for the future of the enterprise.
One great drawback has
been experienced in the fact that the guage of the road is
different from that ot the lines connecting at either terminus.
The guage of the Pacific (Mo.) Railroad is 5 feet 6 inches,
while the guage of the Illinois lines, and also of the Union
Pacific (E.D.) Railroad is 4 feet 8£ inches. To remedy
this anomaly and to secure more complete connections the
company have decided to change the guage of their road to
that of the neighboring roads. This will secure a great uni¬
form line of roads from New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Bal¬
timore, <fcc., to the furthest west. Improvements in the way
of auxiliary lines will be adopted. . The Osage Valley and
Southern Kansas Railroad, nearly completed from Boonville
to Tipton is the pioneer.
Its ultimate destination is Fort
Scott in Kansas. The Pacific Company have taken a
thirty
years’ lease of this road, and will probably open the first
section early in September.
In order to show the progress of the Pacific (Mo.) Rail¬
road ab initio we compile from the record the following
statement of the mileage operated, and the earnings thereon

much against them that they were compelled to succumb. The large
increase in the quantity of Indi n produce afloat, as compared with a

of hastening the produce to the Liverpool market.

From a low point, the value of cotton was forced rapi ily up,
the\effec is now seen in the fact that from a supply of Indian produce

Some of the samples, however, show the effects of the protracted hot

Taken as a whole, the crop is a very superior one, and is

about the yield of produce per acre, so little of the new crop having

There ij no doubt, however, that it is above the

ing is our usual table showing the movement of cotton at all
the ports since Sept. 1, according to the latest mail returns
We do not include our telegrams to-night, as we cannot
ensure the accuracy or obtain the detail necessary by
telegraph.
We have made the following alterations in our column of
imports this week, in part to correct inaccuracies as to ports
of shipment, and in part also to add omissions which full
returns from some of the Virginia ports show to have been
heretofore made, to wit.: from the receipts under the head of
New York we have deducted 8,102 bales, and credited them
to Virginia and North Carolina, and to the Virginia receipts
we have also added the further amount of 5,206 bales to m^ke

time Inst,

The market this week has been less active.
Some improve¬
ment in prices at Liverpool, together with the unfavorable

from the South, and the continued high price of
gold resulted, early in the week, in a slight upward move¬
ment in the quotations here for higher grades, but the demand
at once fell off, and towards the close, with more hopeful
crop accounts, prices became easier, holders being free sellers.
Lower grades have been pressed upon the market somewhat,
the demand for them being very limited.
The crop accounts
of the last few days are construed favorably, but the immedi¬
ate future is the critical period, and hence witluthe very small
stocks there is little disposition to force sales. Considerable

crop rumors

Flour has

forward

freely, but receipts are still
small, and below the corresponding periods in previous sea¬
sons.
There is, however, a want of confidence in prices, and
an unwillingness to accumulate stocks, which induce a
pres¬
sure to sell from the wharf, and have
given a turn to prices
slightly in favor of the buyers. The shipping demand is less
liberal, while the local trade operates with great caution, and
the close is flat at $9@9 25 for fair to good new Extra State.
Wheat has been dull and heavy. Receipts have been
almost nil, but there is a liberal stock in store, and receipts at
the Western markets have shown a rapid increase. The
advance abroad has had some effect in checking the decline.
At to-day’s market No. 2 Spring could have been sold for
British markets at $2, and a liberal business done at $1 90,
but the milling demand held prices pretty
steady at $2 05.
Winter Wheats are not plenty, and choice samples of new
bring very full prices.
Corn has been active and advancing. There has been a
large demand for the local and Eastern trade, which has
taken the bulk of supplies at prices somewhat above British
orders, which have consequently been but sparingly executed.
The temperature in the past two or three nights has been
much too cold for Corn, and there are
reports of slight frosts,
but no injury to the crop. Oats have been flat. The new
crop has begun to arrive by rail, and pressed for sale, which,
with a liberal stock in store, lias served to
depress the market.
The demand for Rye is entirely dependent
on the current
by rail, and high prices are paid. Barley and Barley
receipts
Maltf as well as Canada Peas, are very scarce, and prices
