The consideration of paramount importance
is the oft-mentioned but still potent crop deficiency of last
year. While everybody i3 now cognizant of the extent
of this shortage in the yield of our agricultural products
in 1881, the almost undivided • attention given to the
present year’s crop3, now being raised and harvested, and
the propitious outlook for them, lead many to suppose
that the diminished outturn of 18S1 is a past influence,
no longer having a bearing upon present traffic returns.

figures.

This belief has

been further encouraged by the excep¬

tionally favorable yield of winter wheat this year, and
early and large movement to market. To a certain
extent, no doubt, this latter has tended to offset tho loss
from the diminished movement of other cereals; but the
force of the influence of last year’s crop shortage has not
by any means spent itself. On the contrary, its effects are
more keenly and more severely felt at the preseut moment
than at any previous time during the progress of the crop
its

year.

This is

so

for obvious

reasons.

At the beginning

the full extent of the devastation done
by the drought was not known even to the farmers, and,
besides, the movement to market is always large and free
just after tho crops have been harvested, for many pro¬
ducers send their supplies forward as soon as secured,
whatever the yield and the ruling price.
But as the
year advanced the smaller and constantly diminishing
receipts at the ports, in the face of very high prices,
plainly told the story of an extraordinary reduction.
Now with the granaries completely bare, and new sup¬
plies (barring the sections where winter wheat is largely
raised) not yet coming in, the grain movement has been
reduced to infinitesimal proportions.

that influenced
shipments in the two years. During January and part
of February the low rates that prevailed just before the
close of the railroad war stimulated shipments to an
unusual degree, and for a time the movement was larger
even than in 1881.
But this could not last any length of
time, and soon the shipments fell off very decidedly and
have continued very small ever since.
Indeed, the Rail¬
road Gazette, which has been keeping a record of the move¬
ment from Chicago for some time, states that the total for the
last week in July was the smallest noted since reports of ihe
shipments have been made—about four years. Furthermore,
as compared with 1 S31, the decrease this year is especially
heavy, because, during the progress of the railroad war
which began in June last year, rates touched such low figures
as to enable the
railroads to compete with the canals and
take avvay a good part of their traffic.
Much of this
traffic is this year again seeking tho canal route, and the
railroads of course lose in a corresponding degree.
It is
satisfactory to note, however, that though the total ship¬
ments from the first of tho year to date are 500,000 tons
less than in 1881, they are but 180,000 tons smaller than
in 1880, which was a prosperous year for the railroads.
But though tho shipments at present are very small,
while last season they were
very heavy,
there is
one
point the railroads now have in their favor
namely, paying rates. Last year the nominal rate
on
grain was 15 cents per 100 lbs. from Chicago
to New
York, but the actual rate was probably
nearer 10 than 15; this year the tariff rate is 25 cents, and

in the circumstances. The temporary suspen¬
of individuals there is such a thing as jealousy ; and it is
the characteristic of this passion that while it aims at con¬ sion of the business of the Canal—a suspension which tell*
It would have been

cealment, it rarely fails to find expression in crooked and
indirect ways.
It now begins to be tolerably certain that
as England assumed all the responsibility for the restora¬
tion of order in Egypt, she will also bear away all the
glory. A little jealousy on the part of the other nations,
in such circumstances, is perhaps natural enough.
Good
taste, however, demanded its concealment ; and on the
whole it has to be admitted that with one qualified excep¬
tion the feeling referred to has not found any open
expression.
To be sure, there have been grumblings of discontent
from the very commencement, from Russia, from Italy,
from Spain.
Latterly, however, they have been heard
most loudly in France.
Two French papers, the Siecle
and La France, describe the seizure of the Canal as the act
of a thief ; the Telegraphe urges the Canal Company to sue
England for damages ; and one of the recognized organs
of Gambetta takes the trouble to inform the French public
that if the policy of Gambetta had been followed the
country would have been spared the humiliation of seeing
the Canal made a branch of St. George’s Channel.
But the most singular manifestation of this feeling of
discontent is that made by La France and echoed by some
of our own journals, to the effect that England’s action
with regard to the Canal may one day be us ad against
her by the United States in support of their claims to the
exclusive control of the Panama Canal.
In this change
there is first of all a vicious begging of the question.
It
is taken for granted that England has violently and of
her own accord seized the Canal, and that she is holding
it and

complaint is all the more unreasonable that it
It is notorious that the scheme of
joint intervention—a scheme which culminated in the
delivery of the ultimatum to the Khedive’s rebellious
ministry—had Gambetta for its author. It is morally
certain that if Gambetta had remained in power France
would have acted with England in maintaining the
Khedive ; and we may rest assured that France would
hardly have been contented with an inferior share of the
responsibility for the naval and military operations. But
France made an inglorious retreat from her obligations ;
and England was left alone to face all the difficulties of a
situation which her former ally had helped to create. A
French squadron had actually been sent to Alexandria.
But the sentiment which in various ways found expression
in the French Chambers, and the refusal of the Chamber*
to vote the paltry sum requisite for a joint occupation of
the Canal, had the effect of inducing M. de Freycinet to
refrain from taking part in the bombardment of Alex¬
andria and finally to back out of the whole affair.

journalists, seem exceedingly ridiculous. If the Frenck

Mr. Gladstone has again and again stated
the case, and with a clearness and emphasis which should
have been sufficient to make mistake or misapprehension
impossible. It is necessary for the commercial and other
interests of the British empire, and also for the commer¬
cial and other interests of the world, that the Suez Canal

of- the motives and purposes
ef England takes the sting out of the suggestion
of the future possible difficulty about the Panama
Canal. The Panama Canal is by no means yet an accom¬
plished fact. The character of its protectorate is one of
those indefinite things which lie hidden in the future.
If
it should fall to the lot of the United States alone to
guarantee the neutrality of the canal, it will be well if they
ihall be always found equal to the situation. Most certainly
they will never have any serious cause to be ashamed of
their mission if their motives are always as honorable and
their actions as disinterested as are those of England in

adjourned until F.iday with its work uncompleted.' At the
conclusion of the meeting Mr. Fink said that he desired to con¬
tradict the statements relative to the probability of a break in
the entire pooling arrangement on account of an alleged feel¬
ing of antagonism on the part of several of the roads co the
percentages in the pool allotted to them by the Commissioner.
Mr. Fink said that there was nothing to communicate in regard
to the day’s session except, that, there had been a discussion in
regard to differential rates and progress had been made. The
rates to Chicago had been adopted, but might be changed.
At
the conclusion of the meeting of the committee he said that he

would announce the result reached and the rates fixed upon.
Any announcement of rates before the final adjournment would
be misleading to the public, inasmuch as they might be changed

Mr. Fink said that the qnes ion of
the percentages of the different roads composing the Western
passenger pool had not been taken up.
A passenger agent and member of the committee informed ft
World reporter that there was little likelihood of the pool per¬
centages being fixed at, this meeting of the committee, as so
maeh time had been taken up in the discussion of the differ¬
ential rates that by the time those were ail determined the
agents would desire to leave for their different roads, and the
probability was that the percentages would be postponed for
settlement at another meeting of the Executive Committee.

rates submitted to-day was that the New York Central and the
Pennsylvania roads should allow the Erie and the New York
Penn.*& Ohio roads a discount of $3 50 and the Balt. & Ohio.a
discount of $2 on all tickets to St. Louis and points in Kansas;
a discount of $2 and $1, respectively, to the same roads to Cin¬
cinnati; a discount of $1 50 to the two roads first named to
Cleveland and a discount of $L to Chicago. An adjournment
was taken to give time for discussion, but it is more than proba¬

In the last half of August there are ap¬

Railroad Bonds.—The dealings in State bonds
have been small, and to-day Tennessee 6’s sold at 54%-55, and
the new compromise bonds sold last at d2}4. Arkansas 7s M. &
L. R. issue sold at 34 and 30, only $1,000 at each price, and
N. Car. special tax sold yesterday at 7. If there was only
complete confidence that Tennessee finances would never again
be unsettled, the new bonds might sell much higher. Rail¬
road bonds show a tendency towards lower prices, in sympathy
with stocks, and also because the great majority of investors
are absent from the market, and will give no orders for buy¬
ing bonds till their return next month.
Railroad and Miscellaneous Stocks.—The stock market
has shown less strength this week, in the absence of many
brokers and operators from the city, and to-day, with a raid
on Denver & Rio Grande, the general list closed rather weak,
and prices in many cases were near the lowest point. It is the
same now that it has often been before, when the whole mar¬
ket was influenced by a few leading stocks, and the decline in
those was used to depress all the ot hers. Three weeks ago there
was much talk of extra dividends or privileges, or benefits of
some sort, to be realized soon on Northern Pacific, Chicago &
Northwestern, Delaware Lackawanna & Western, Rochester &
Pittsburg, Chicago St. Paul Minneapolis & Omaha, St. Paul
Minneapolis & Manitoba, and possibly on other-stocks, and the
market was forced up on the prospect of these extraordinary
good things yet to come. But in no case has anything hap¬
pened, and some of the stocks have declined considerably, so
much so that the reports of extra dividends, &c., now appear
as if they had been given out to make a market for unloading.
But whether or not the insiders having knowledge of the
real prospects have unloaded, the effect of so much expectation
and so little realization has been rather demoralizing, and a
slight decline has been natural under the circumstances.

was $1,200,000, viz , $350,000 for first mortgage bonds and
$850,000 for stock.
Boston & Albany.—A press dispatch from Boston, Aug. 22,

the Commonwealth’s holding in the capital stock of the rail¬
road of 24,115 shares, the price to be paid for the stock to be
$160 per share. At a special meeting of the stockholders of
the railroad this privilege was accepted, but not, however,
without considerable opposition.
Within a few days the ex¬
change of the State’s stock for the Boston & Albany’s bonds
has been completed, the railroad company handing over to the
treasury of the Commonwealth $3,858,000 in face value of its
$ per cent twenty-year bonds, and receiving in exchange 24,115
shares of the company’s capital stock. The railroad company
also paid the -State $400 in money, to equalize the exchange.
The interest on the bonds is payable on October 1 and April 1.
By this exchange the interest which the State has always held
In the directory of the railroad ceases and the five State

Cincinnati Hamilton & Dayton.—At Cincinnati, August
22, the directors met in special session to act on the ques¬

placing the $1,000,000 of preferred stock author¬
a vote at a meeting of the stockholders of the road
on August 16.
The board ordered the immediate issue
of $500,000 of the $1,000,000 of preferred stock authorized lasr.
week, and appointed President Hugh J. Jewett a committee of
one to negotiate the sale of the same, arid to report to the
directory for ratification by a vote of a majority of that body.
The board further ordered the manager of the construction
department to immediately complete a double track to Hamil¬
ton, and that contracts for the same be concluded at once; ah#
that 300 box-cars, 150 gondolas and fifty fiat cars be built at
once.
Hugh J. Jewett, on behalf of the Cincinnati Hamilton
& Dayton Railroad served notice on M. E Ingalls of the Cincin¬
nati Indianapolis St. Louis & Chicago Railroad Company, that
the present pool between these two roads from Cincinnati to
Indianapolis must terminate. By this pool the Indiana branch
received twenty-three per cent of the proceeds. It does not fol¬
low that another pool will not be formed.

“In connection with the above exhibit, it is but just to say that
during the first six months of this year the tonnage was quifcelight, and rates for transportation extremely low. Since the Is*
of July rates have been better, and have been well maintained,
while the business moved shows a large increase in tonnage.
It is expected that from now on until the close of the year the
traffic of the whole line will be about equal to the- roadV
capacity, and that the net earnings for the last- half of rht
year will be equal to at least 6 per cent on the capital stock of

the company.

“Referring to a dividend in August, which was semi-officially

Philadelphia North American of August 23 said : “A

commuuicition with Satterthwaite & Co., of London, the bank¬
ers who assisted John Taylor & Co. in the negotiation of
the

effect an interchange of business between the two roads.
No change was made in the directory or officers of the road.
Missouri Stale Finances.—The following is a statement of
the assessed property in this State for the years 1881 and 1882:

Reading’s deferred income bond issue, received a telegram yes¬
terday afternoon from the New York house mentioned, s-ating
in positive language that Mr. Gowen had placed the $13,500,000
of the 5 per cent loan, and concluded with the words, * This is
reliable.’ It w-as purchasing for the long accouht by customer*
of the Third Street house referred to, on the strength of this
dispatch, that advanced the stock to 30%. The report was*
also telegraphed to a number of houses by the firm of F. M.
Lockwood & Co and appeared to gain altogether a little more
credence than has recently been accorded to the numerous bull
rumors to the same effect, none of which lived over night
The report of the company’s earnings for July had a good
effect, and the increase in profits over those of last year tended
to strengthen the expectation that the receivership will be dis¬
solved in any event before many more months. There is every
indication that a gain of $1,000,000 in net earnings will be made
up by the profits of the four months still to be heard from,
which are usually the best months of the fiscal year for the
anthracite coal trade, and it is quite probable that the entire
year will improve even more than $1,000,000 in net earnings.
Very few operators are to be found who will admit that the
company is in a very bad way, even if Mr. Gowen’s reported
success is imaginary, for the rate at which
the floating debt
has been reduced, item by item, with the $7,009,000 or $s,000,000
already received from the deferred bond subscriptions, has
so considerably diminished the company’s interest account that
much needed repairs to roads and equipment have been ren¬
dered possible, and business facilities will no longer be per¬

The above totals show that the old interior stocks have de¬
creased during the week 3,67£ bales, and are to-night 24,965
bales less than at the same period last year. The receipts ai
the sr.me towns have been 5,184 bales less than the same weak

last year, and sinco Sept. 1 the receipts at all the towns aro
618,667 bales less than for the same time in 1880-81.
Receipts from the Plantations.—The following table ia

prepared for the purpose of indicating the actual movement each
week from the plantations.
Receipts at the outports are some¬
times misleading, as they are made up more largely one year
than another at the expense of the interior stocks. We reach
therefore, a safer conclusion through a comparative statement
like the following. In reply to frequent inquiries we will add

For about a week after the publication of our last report the
market was very quiet; only a trifling business was done, and
in some instances prices gave way a little. Fears as to the
security of the Canal route to the East caused operators to
hold aloof. Later on these fears subsided, and a little more
business resulted. Last Friday week the market was quite un¬
settled by the reported submission of Arabi, and for several

days Eastern bayers merely looked on ; other buyers ga7e out
only small orders. This week the tone is quiet but firm. The
sales during the month have fallen short of the rate of pro¬
duction, and the position of producers, especially manufac¬

that prices will continue to harden until the new crop is nearer

fact that prices are already at a point which usually makes

New patents
have been plenty and weak. The new flour now selling here is
being disposed of at unprofitable figures—so the millers state^
and some mills have stopped running for the time being. To¬
day the market was quiet but generally steady.
Wheat has fluctuated frequently within a narrow range, but
the prices latterly current are higher than those of a week ago.
The export demand has been only fair, and though the trans¬
actions in options have latterly shown some increase, the busi¬
ness in the early part of the week was quite moderate.
The
fluctuations in this market are regulated wholly by the varia¬
tions in prices at Chicago. That market, in turn, is governed by
the daily receipts there and the reports concerning the crop.
The receipts at Chicago in the middle of the week were suffi¬
ciently large to encourage the belief that much larger receipts
were impending, but as a matter of fact the arrivals have
latterly been small enough to frighten shorts both here and at
the West into covering, the alarm here being perhaps quite as
noticeable as at Chicago, owing to the report that August had

follows:

clothing woolens by early buyers,
with agents for a few of the most
popular makes, although such cases were exceptional. Cloak
ings continued to receive a fair share of attention, and repellants met with moderate sales. Kentucky jeans were in limited
request, and satinets were in irregular demand.
Flannels
ruled quiet in demand, and blankets were inactive; but prices
are firmly maintained.
Soft dress fabrics continued fairly
active, and there was a steady call for worsted dress goods, allwool cashmeres, &c. Shawls and skirts were in steady request,
and a fair business was done in carpets, hosiery and knit under¬
wear; but fancy knit woolene were a trifle slow.
Foreign Dry Goods.—There was a further improvement in
the general demand for imported goods, and in some fabrics—
notably dress goods and silks—there was a very fair movement
the past week.
Millinery goods were also in good request, and
fair sales of linen t*oods, laces and embroideries were reported.
Gloves were more active, but hosiery was somewhat quiet.
Cloakings and raen’s-wear woolens were in moderate request.
Imports continue heavy as compared with last year, but the
demand for fine goods is so steadily increasing that the supply
is not likely to prove redundant, and in the meantime prices
are firmly maintained.
