Accounts regarding the condition of the anthracite

than heretofore. By this we do not mean that there
has be«n any shading of prices, for it is admitted by

both gross and net, while the Southern group, though
reflecting an increase in gross, records a decrease in net.
The trunk lines have made a considerable gain in gross
but lose slightly in net, the augmentation in expenses
having been an important feature with these roads.
The New England roads have gained more in net than
in gross, but that fact has no especial significance, as
these roads vary their expenses greatly from year to
year.
The Middle States group and the Middle Westem group, which are affected more or less by the same
set of conditions as the trunk linos, show fair ratios
of gain in gross and also fair ratios of gain in
net.

things on t!ie market was a strong indication of the confidence wliich the public has in the speedy domination of law

and

order, and the belief that property in this country is not
to be depreciated or destroyed by mob law or violence.
The present fancy for the industrial stocks marks rather a

new

era in Stock E.tchange dealings.

There has been a

species of evolution in regard to these stocks, most of which
appeared first as "trusts" modeled after the famous Standard

Od Trast, and

were eagerly pm-chased at rising prices. Afterward they fell into disrepute, owin? to immense capitalization and the difficulty of getting any satisfactory information
about them, and the stocks declined very heavily. Most of
the trusts were then reorganized as corporations, some of
tliem with reduced capital, a!id the stocks are now in favor
again at high figures, based very largely on the reports of
possible earnings and dividends to be realized. Only a few of
the industrial stocks is&ued in the past few years are active at
the Exchange, and there is yet a wide field for operation in
this clas3 of stocks in the future as the number of them on
the active list becomes much more numerous.
The open market rates for call loans during the week on
Stock and bond collaterals have ranged from li| to 2 per cent,
the average being t% per cent. To-day rates on call were
IJ^ to 2 per cent. Commercial paper is quoted at 4@4J4 p. c.
The Ban U of England weekly statement on Thursday showed
an increase in bullion of £581,000, and the percentage of reserve to liabilities wai 48M9, against 45-52 last week; the discount" rate remains unchanged at 2 per cent. The Bank of
France shows an increase of 8,525,000 frincs in gold and

The New York Clearing-House banks in their statement of
August 13 showed a decrease in the reserve held of $3,831,70)
and a surplus over the required reserve of $15,774,4)'), against

Foreign Exchange.— Rates for sterling bills have generally
been firm iu the absence of any large supply of commercial
exchange, and the slo IV sales of cotton bills this year are believed to account in great measure for the smaller amount of
commercial bills offt ring. But to-day rates were decidedly easier
owing to a lot of these bills coming on the market. Gold
shipments this week amount to S2,000,00J, but none of
tlu.s goes tc-morrow.

Railrsad and Miscellaneous Stocks.— Again the active
business of the Slock Exchange has run largely oa tliose stjcks
known as the industrials. American Sugar, National Lead,
General Electric, National Cordage, Cotton Oil, Southern Cotton Oil, Chicago Gas, and some others, have all l)een more or
less active, usually at firm or advancing prices. There has been
talk of larger dividends, and 12 per cent on Cordage, 10 on
Electric, and various rates to be earned and declared on other
stocks have been mentioned. The restriction on railroads by
legislation, the present railroad strikes and the large earnings
of some of the industrial comp .nies have all contributed to
turn tlie tide of speculation at the present mcment in the
direction of this clasn of stocks.
The granger stocks have been fairly steady; current earnings
are good and tlie corn prospects are conceded to have imdividend on St, Paul
proved materially since August 1.
common continues to be one of the matters talked of as a
probable event in the rear future. The Gould stucks as a clas
are strong Weste'n Union sold above par, w hit h is consiUeraldy higher thii it las gone in more tliau ten years past,
leading to the supposition that the old plan will l)e pursued

Canadian Pacific—The Canadian Pacific Company is
pushing the work on the extension from Woodstock to
Niagara Falls. The line will skirt the Canadian side of the
Niagara River, and it is thought must prove an attractive
route for tourist travel, passengers being able to obtain a fine
view of the Falls without leaving the cars. It is expected to
have the road and the bridge across the Niagara River completed in time for the World's Fair travel next y«ar.
Another important project which will be completed this
year Is the e.xtenslon from Regina on the main line to a connection with the line in course of construction by the Minneapolis St. Paul & Sault Ste. Marie R R. This will give the
Canadian Pacific a direct line from the West to Minneapolis
and St. Paul, connecting there with all lines to Chicago.
W. C. Van Home, President of the Canadian Pacific Railroad Company, will sail fur England on August 25. It is
understood that he will make arrangements for the construction of a line of fast steamships for the Atlantic service.

Metropolitan Traction Co.— The Metropolitan Traction
Company is likely to obtain control of the Belt Line (the CenMr. William C.

Whitney, for the Metropolitan Traction Company, recently
submitted a proposition to G. Hilton Scribner, the President
East Rivers road, for a lease of
of the Central Park North
that pro|)erty for a period of ninety-nine years. Acjompanying the proposition was an otier on the part of the syndicate
to buy all of the Belt Line stock that should be oflfered for
sale at 150.
The Times says " The Belt Line directors considered the
proposition but could not agree as to the advisability of accepting it. Some of the members of the baard \rere strongly
in favor of leasing the road, while others were ai stronglv
opposed to the proposition. When Mr. Whitney was made
aware of the inability of the board to agree he withdrew the
lease proposition, but renewed the offer to buy stock at 150.
He announce 1 that all stock delivered at the Western National
Bank would be paid for at that rate. Several blocks of the
stock were pre3ente<l at the bank named without delay. The
capital stock of the company irf $1,800,000."

Oats declined during the fore part of the week under increased receipts and some selling by " longs" to realize, but
later the market strengthened owing to the difficulty of getting supplies here from the West. To-day the market was
fairly active and firmer on buying by " shorts " to cover
contracts.

active

and un-

Domestic Woolens.— Agents have had more time during
the week to attend to routine work than for several weeks
past, the orders coming in reouiring immediate attention,
showing a considerable falling oflf In both number and volume.
Buyers are apparently well filled up now with heavy-weight
woolens and worsteds, and current business is largely confined
to spring makes, in which, as was the case last week, the most
prominent demand is for low-grade pure wool and for the
finer makes of worsteds in men's-wear styles, the mediumpriced lines and the cotton-warp and cotton-mixed fabrics
doing only moderately well. Prices are steady and manufacturers are better under orders than at the correpponding time
Overcoatings [and cloakings are also well sold and

nels and blankets are without prominent feature, but re-orders
for dress goods are of fair extent, and an excellent jobbing
trade is passing in domestic woolen and worsted makes, and in

styles.

This statement shows that in spite of
the shut-down of the Para Rubber Works and other large

million dollars in the taxable property, owing to ttie introduction of new industries and the erection of manv new buildings.
The increase in valuation is above the average for the
past ten years. Reductions on the assessad value of real estate
have been made amounting to $50,000, yet the large number
of new buildings erected h-is resulted in a net increase of over
