The full details of clearings for the week covered by the
above statement will be given next Saturday, We cannot, of
course, furnish them to-day, bank clearings being made up by
the various clearing houses at noon on Saturday, and hence in
the above the last twenty-four hours of the week have to be
in all case* estimated, an we go to press Friday night.
Our usual detailed figures for the previous week, covering
the returns for the period ending with Saturday noon, August
10. are given below, and we alao present the results for the
corresponding week in 1804. 1803 and 1898. In comparison
with the preceding week there is a decrease in the aggre­
gate exchanges of a little more than eighty-four million dollars,
at New York the loss is fifty-two and a half mil­
lions. Contrasted with the week of 1894 the total for the

N ew Y ork , August 5. 1S9Y

D ear S i s —lo your ixauaof August 3*1, at tbo conclusion of
the article “ Mr. Ashley oa Frv«* Silver." you express the
opinion that the free coinage of silver by the Unite*l States
alone would, if it bad any atf-ct upon its price, depreciate its
gold value, and you add : “ If any friend of silver thinks we
are in error and that silver would appreciate he is free to send
us his views, and we promise to publish and to answer them,
too ; the latter, we think, we can do to his com plete sstitfaclion."
While I am no more the friend of silver than of gold I be­
lieve them both essential as the money metals of tli* w orld
and both equally practicable for that purpose, and that silver
has been w ry unfairly treated and to the lietriment of tb x e
nation* that have so treated it, and that free coinage w ill
appreciate its gold price in proportion to the number and
com m ercial importance of the countries adopting it. I there­
fore avail mreelf of your invitation and embody my views in
the form of questions, involving points which heretofore hsve
seemed clear to me. but w hich are by no m -«tu so if the
opinion you express is (inaocialty sound.
filers follow the •luestions which we omit in this pDce and
give with our answers below.—g o . Chroxicls )
1 venture to say that your promised complete answer to
these question* will not ooly Interest and enlighten me. but
also very many serious and patriotic people, who are earnestly
studying 'he subject, who recognix* the importance a* well
as the difficulties of it. and who, while they attach great
w eight to everything you put forward, and respect your con­
clusions, do not alw ays s e e thsir way clear to agree with
them .
Yours truly,
W.

O . Raoul.

8. It is true, and as might have been expected, silver con­
tinued to decline after both the Bland and Sherman acts but
is there not a totally different principle involved between a
limited purchase act, which piles up large quantities of silver
as a stored commodity, unconsumed in the useful arts and
unused in any proper seDse, aDd menacing the market by the
possibihty of its future sale as bullion, and laws that estab­
lish its free coinage as a settled policy of a government thus
distributing it or its representative certificates for permanent
circulation in a country whose commerce and territory are so
extensive as ours, and so capable of further largely extendine
thu- Vs®.of, s,lver by trade with the silver-using countries
which the free coinage of silver would so greatly stimulate? ’

MILL DIVIDENDS.

The results of the operations o f the cotton-manufacturing
establishment* at Fall River for the third quarter of 1885 have
been quite satisfactory, making a more favorable exhibit so
far as dividends are concerned than any quarter for some
time past. Thirty-four corporations, with a combined capital
of 630,578,000, are represented in the subjoined statement,
only tw o o f w hich—the Barnaby Manufacturing Company
and Metacomet Manufacturing Company—have passed their
dividend*. The aggregate amount paid in dividends by tbe
thirty-four corporations lias been 6869,875, or an average of
1'80 per cent on the capital invested, whereas in 1894 the
average dividend was only 1*25 per cent. Tbe current favor­
able exhibit has been possible in the face of low prices for
niiout all descriptions of gooils, ow ing to the fact that mills
w ere well supplied w ith tbe raw material, purchased at low
prices. In addition to tb e total distributed above tw o mills—

September are times of exceeding dulness in Paris. Heia
likewise all the leading operators have either left or are preperiog to leave. But although the holiday season has begun
business has continued wonderfully good, and quotations
have been well maintained all through the week. There is
some slight decline in consols and other first-class securities ;
but there has been a recovery in British railway stocks, and
the activity in the South African market and in the Western
Australian department has continued up to the end.
In the American department the investing public is still
holding aloof and professional operators are Dot doing much.
The market therefore moves entirely in response to New
York; there is as yet no initiative here. But undoubtedly
much mere interest is felt here than lor a loDg time past In
that market. The amount of unemployed money is so great,
the difficuly of finding gcod investments is so insuperable,
and the prices of all really sound stocks are so high, that
people are looking about for some means of employing their
money remuneratively. The American market is of course
by far the largest and heretofote has been the most profitable.
If therefore the public her.* could see reason to believe that
sound money would be maintained there is no doubt that
the market would become exceedingly active. Our people,
however, are unable to iudge at this distance what is the real
strength of the Silver Party. The belief is growing that the
Silver Party is losing ground ; but a* yet the public is afraid
to act on that belief. That the trade in the United States
is improving everybody recognizes ; and that there is mu-b
change for the better in many other respects ia likewise ad­
mitted. But tha, condition of the currency is still looked
upon with apprehension.
Matters are decidedly improving in Argentina. The news
from Chili is also fairly good. But the belief is very strong
here that several of the rt construe led Australian banks wii
have to be wound up. At a meeting in the CoUnies about a
m mth ago the repr^entatives of all the banks recommended
that tha right of i**ue should be taken over by the govern­
ments, and this ia be-heTt-d to indicate that the hankers fear
that tha notes of many of the hanks may be refused unless
the Government comes to their assistance.
Tbe wool auctions have ended even better than they began.
Tne American baying has been on a very great scale ; so has
the English. The Germans and French at first purchased
very sparingly, but during the last week or two they also
h >ught on a very large scale, and the result was dint prices
were at the end even belter than at the beginning, and that
the market was decidedly harder.
The following return shows the position cf the Bank of
England, the Hank rate of discount, the price of consols, A c .,
-mupared with the last three years:

London, S aturday, Aug. 3 , 1S95.
A portion of the proceeds of the Chinese loan has already
been remitted from Plris to London to ths credit of the Jap­
anese Government. No gold has been sent, nor is it likely to
come for a considerable time. The remittance has been
made partly by the sale of French Treasury bills in London
and partly bv drawing upon the large balances held here by
several of the great French banks. It is understood that the
money will lie paid out almost immediately, as Japan lias
been buying actively both ships and naval stores. The re mittar.ces have been stopped for the moment, but they will
be made gradually, as circumitances favor. la consequence
the supply of money here is greater than ever and rates are
likely to continue very low for some months.
The silver market is dull with a downward tendency. On
Wednesday, indeed, it was strengthened by the unex ectedly
large applications for Iadia Council drafts. Only 5G lakhs
were offered and the applications exceeded three crons, or
six times as much. Toe Council, however, refused to sell
below la . 1 5-32d. per rupee, aod it disposed altogether of about
48*4 lakhs. The price was high -r than had b-en anticipated,
and Ibis for the momeut has supported the silver market
But the general belief here is that the pru-e of silver will go
lower. A very Urge amount has been held here for tome
months in Ilia belief that China would buy ; and more is to
arrive thU month from the United States. Unless, therefore,
Japan buys more than is expected there is almost sure to be
a decline in the price. But the opinion is that Japan will
not buy much. Iodia is buying very little, and China for
the time being is not buying at alL
The elections are practically ended and the Government
victory is more complete than anybody anticipated. The
elections, however, have not excited as tuuch interest at
heme as might have been expected. On the Continent they
have made a good impression, the general feeling being that
Lord Salisbury at tbe Foreign Office will make the influence
of this country felt abroad and so will strengthen the causes

—Attention of investors is called to the offering in another
column by Jacob Rubino of $200,000 Duluth & Iron Range
first mortgage 5 per cent bonds. The net earnings of the
Duluth & Iron Range last year were three times its fixed
charges. The shipments of ore this season will be 2,000,000
tons as against 1,300,000 last season. The bonds would ap­
pear to be amply secured both by the property covered and
large surplus earnings.
—Messrs. Redmond, Kerr & Co., the well-known dealers in
investment securities, propose in future to make a special
feature of guaranteed stocks. Circulars describing in detail
their offerings are issued from time to time and it will be sent
to any address upon application at their offices, either 41 Wall
st., New York, or 421 Chestnut St., Philadelphia.
—Messrs. N. W. Harris & Co. will furnish a special circular
on a Kansas City street railway issue on application at their
New York office, 15 Wall Street.
—Various Reading issues are advertised this week by Mr.
F. J. Lisman, 10 Wall St. Mr. Lie man's specialty is inactive
railway securities.

The Money Market ami Financial Situation.—The con­
dition of the foreign exchange market, the exports of gold
and the Government treasury gold balance have been the
chief topics of interest in banking and financial circles dur­
ing the week.
The action of the Bond Syndicate in depositing .$3,000,000
of gold in the Sub-Treasury was favorably regarded, showing
the interest of the Syndicate in maintaining the Government
gold reserve.
While business at the Stock Exchange has been dull, it is
notable that investment bonds and stocks are readily ab­
sorbed when offered. And the fact that the bids for a block
of $4,000,000 of railroad bonds offered by a prominent banking
house were largely in excess of the amount reflects the general
interest and ponfidence in such investments.
All the latest reports from the West indicate that the corn
and spring-wheat crops will both be very large, and the
benefits which will accrue to that section of the country can
hardly be over-estimated.
New York banks report considerable inquiry for money for
crop-moving purposes but the actual demand is yet limited.
The open market rates for call loans during the week on
stock and bond collaterals have ranged from % to 1 per cent.
To-day’s rates on call were % to 1 per cent. Prime com­
mercial paper is quoted at 3J4 to i]4, per cent
The Bank of England weekly statement on Thursday
sh.wed an increase in bullion of £940,198, and the percentage
of reserve to liabilities was 58-51 against 57-85, last week; the
discount rate remains unchanged at 2 per cent. The Bank of
France shows a decrease of 1,275,000 francs in gold and 125,000 francs in silver.
The New York City Clearing-House banks in their statement
of Aug, 10 showed a decrease in the reserve held of $2,133,200
and a surplus over the required reserve of $38,940,775
against $40,917,175 the previous week.

Foreign Exchange.—Foreign exchange has continued
firm through the week. Commercial offerings have been
limited in amount and the demand is met in part by bills
drawn against gold exports. The total amount of gold

out to-morrow.
To-day actual rates of exchange were as follows: Bankers’

State and Railroad Bonds.—State bonds have been dull.
Sales at the Board include $12,000 Tenn. settlement 3s at 91%
to 91%; $4,000 No. Carolina con. 4s at 105; $5,000 Louisiana
con. 4s at 99; $1,000 Virginia 6s defd. trust certificates,,
stamped, at 6 %, and $1,500 Virginia fund, debt 2-3s of 1991 at
63%.
Railroad bonds have been firm under limited offerings.
The features are Ore. Ry. & Nav. Co. 5s, Or. Short Lina 6 s
and Ore. Short Line & U, N. con. rects., which have ad­
vanced from 2 to 5 points. Other bonds which have ad­
vanced about 1 point include L, N. A. & Chic. cons.. Phila.
& Reading gen. 4s, S. A. & A. Pass. 4s and Chic. & E. I.
gen. 5s.
Some of the No. Pacific issue?, Sav. & Western and South­
ern Ry. bonds have been weak, and declined. Other active
issues in which changes are unimportant include the Atchi­
sons, Ches & Ohio, Mo. Kan. & Tex., Reading and Rio
Grande Western bonds.
Railroad and Miscellaneous Stocks.—The market for
stocks has continued dull and chiefly of a professional char­
acter. Some of the leading railway shares are fractionally
higher than they were last week, but changes are generally
unimportant.
Efforts were made on Wednesday to depress the grangers
on reports by the Weather Bureau of a cold wave in the
Northwest, but they met with poor success. The coal stocks
have been strong on the theory that the coal situation will
soon receive the attention which it so much needs.
Central of N. J. has advanced over a point and Del. &
Hud. Canal and Reading are fractionally higher than they
were last week.
N. Y. Sus. & Western has been more active than usual, and
both the common and preferred have advanced over a point.
There was a sharp rise in New York & New England on
Thursday, which was attributed to an effort to cover a short
interest, and a report that the control and future policy of
the company will soon be announced. Manhattan Elevated
has failed to retain the advance which was noted last
week and has dropped to 114%.
The industrial list has been generally steady. American
Sugar has fluctuated between 115% and 113% on limited
sales. Am. Tobacco has been weak on reported competition
in business, and declined from 1 1 2 % at the close last week to
107%. Distilling has been strong notwithstanding the efforts
to prevent the sale of its property and probable future litiga­
tion. General Electric has lost 1 point of the 2 points gained
last week. Chicago Gas and TJ. S. Leather shares have
been dull, but are fractionally higher than our last ouota
tions.

Western New York & Pennsylvania Railway.
( Y ea r e n d in g Ju n e 30, 1895. J

This r a ilw a y company took possession of the old r a ilr o a d
of the same name in March, 1S95. The new company haa
issued a general mortgage for §10,000,000. The Auditor
explains that the interest on these bonds to June 30 is not in­
cluded in the charges, as it was provided for out of assess­
ments on the stock at the time of reorganization. The in­
ter. st charges below do not include any interest on the old
sec nd mortgage bonds. Interest charges on the new general
mortgage bonds for the current fiscal year 1895-96 will
amount to §200,000, being at the rate of 2 per cent.

In addition to the lines of surface railways, the company
lias acquired practically all the stock of the Kansas City
| Elevated Railway Co.,’ in consideration for which it has
guaranteed $-500,000 0 per cent bonds and $3,000,000 4 per cent
| bond* of that company.
This guaranty i* an obligation of
the Metropolitan Street Railway Co but is not a lien on the
property. The results of the operation of the Elevated Rail­
way Co. are not included in the above statement.
I Kansas City from its hilly character is an excellent street
railway city, as is evidenced by the fact that the gross earn­
ings for the entire system upon which the bonds are a mort­
i gage were over |13,657 per mile of single track for the year
, 1804. It is confidently expected that the console iation of the
street railways of Kansas City will result in increased gross

Earnings for the quarter ending

for fiscal year ending June 30, 1895, will be found on a pre­
vious page.

earnings and reduced operating expanses. For the year
ending June 1,1898. the total interest charges will be $379,800 .
The issue of consolidated bonds is limited to $8,500,000, and
U secured bv a mortgage on the whole Metropolitan system .
It is a first mortgag - on important parts of the system which
have cost $3,089,847, subject only to a lien of $300 000, mtturing in 1897. The proceeds of the bonds sold will pay off the
floating debt and provide funds for the improvements at
present needed. There will remain in the treasury about
21 000,000 bonds for future use, and in the hand? of the
trustees $4,550,000 to retire the same amount of existing
bonds at maturity. The company has paid dividends every
year since its incorporation except one.
The physical condition of the property is good. No unusual
expenditures will be required for some time to come, though,
if conditions are favorable, it is probable that steps may be
taken before long to convert certain horse lines into electric
lines. The §1.000,000 of bonds reserved in the treasury of the
company will furnish more than enough funds for equipping
the present horse lines with electricity.
By recent action of the C i^ Council of Kansas City. Mis»ouri,all franchises now coifl'olled by the Metropolitan Street
Railway Co. in that city, including that of the Elevated Com­
pany, have been extended to 1925, or fifteen years beyond the
maturity of the consolidated mortgage bonds.—V. 60, p. 1104.

We give below a statement showing the overland movement
for the week and since September 1. As the returns reach us
by telegraph late Friday night it is impossible to enter so
largely into detail as in our regular monthly report, but all
the principal matters of interest are given. This weekly
publication is of course supplementary to the more extended
monthly statements. The results for the week ending Aug. 16
and since Sept. 1 in the last two years are as follows:

irregularity in prices of men's-wear
light-weight woolens reported last week has again been
noticeable in both plain and fancy lines in medium grades.
The demand has been poor, orders being scattered and of
small individual volume. Some cancellations are alreday re­
corded as the result of reduced prices in competing lines. The
situation in worked goods is relatively satisfactory; some fair
orders have been recorded in high-grade fancies, and prices
are generally steady. A good demand is reported in cloak­
ings, both plain and fancy, but oveioatings have been dull.
Union and cotton-warp ca-si meres ami satinets have frequent­
ly been well -old, but current demand is light. Plain all-wool
drees goods are in fair re-order demand, as are both plain and
fancy worsted*, mohairs and lustrous wool fabrics, at Arm
prices; but soft wool fancies are quiet Flannels are very
firm, as are blankets, with a moderate re-order demand. Car­
pets firmer.

TRADE,

New York. F r id a y , P . M ., August 16, 1885.
The rapid advance in the price of raw cotton since last re*
port ha* caused manufacturers to adopt an even more con­
servative policy than they have lately pursued in taking
order* for staple cottons for future delivery, and to some ex­
tent thf* ha# restricted bu*me*# during the week, particu­
larly in brown goods. The Eastern mills are as a rule less
reservi d than the Southern, the latter, according to current
