As I am an interested party I do not expect my opinion will receive the

that the Court of -Appeals of the State of New York disapproves the rule

the bettor way is to look into the facts and circumstances of each case
as it arises and see whe'.her or not any improper m°ans have been
resorted to in procuring the contract. In the case of Lyon vs. Mitchell,

From our own correspondent.
London, Saturday. Aug. 6, 1881.
Owing to some rather considerable withdrawals of gold from
the Bank of England, on account of the Italian loan, the money
market has assumed a somewhat firmer appearance, and the
rate of discount for three months' bank bills has improved to

any reduction being made, as an improving demand for money
is looked forward to, while at the same time some important
;
movements in gold are expected to take place during the summer months. There is not, however, any apprehension at
present of money advancing materially in price, as the same
forces are in existence which have for some time past tended
materially to keep the rates of discount at a very moderate
point.
But while the trade demand for money shows but few
indications of improvement, there is an increasing: inquiry for
money for commercial purposes, and that has the effect of
enabling the banks and discount houses to obtain rather better
It cannot be said that the Bank minimum of 2}^ per
cent represents the condition of the market, as bills are freely
discounted at l)i per cent. The difference between 1^ per

2^ per cent is considerable, and more activity must
manifest itself in the money market before the directors of the
Bank of England will feel themselves justifled in augmenting
their terms. There is, however, some reason for believing,
now that we are entering upon a new season for imported
produce, that further supplies of gold will be sent to the
United States towards the close of the summer and in the early
cent and
autumn; and the possibility of this leads to the belief that
money must become dearer in the course of the present year.

Tenders were received at the Bank of England yesterday for
«1,476,000 in Treasury bills. The amounts allotted were In
biUs at three months, £971,000; do. six months,
£505,000.
:
Tenders for bills at three months at £99 7s. 6d. will receive
about 37 per cent, and above in full; and for bills at six months
at
£98 15s. 6d. and above in fall. The Government is paying,
therefore, about 2)6 per cent for loans. It is explained
that
this comparatively high rate for money
which has to be paid by

took the balance at
their minimum. It is, however, an
indication that money is

;
The increa.se in the value of money in the open market
almost entirely due to the gold demand for export, but it is
said that there has been some improvement in the commercial
inquiry.
At this period of the year it should be expected,
but it is certain that it has not yet assumed any important
form. The trade of the country remains quiet, and there is no
reason for believing that there will be any departure from the
cantious policy which has now been adhered to so long. On
the contrary, we are more ju.stitied in arriving at the conclusion
that the period of somewhat timid trading will be prolonged,
as the money market shows indications of being disturbed
daring the autumn months by gold movements, though there
are no apprehensions of actually dear money. On previous
occasions since 1S70 there have been frequent spasms in the
money market, and the rates of discount have been rapidly
advanced, only, however, to retreat to their former point as
soon as the de-tirable effect had been produced. Now that Italy
is baying gold out of the proceeds of the late loan, and as some
gold has been lately sent to the United States, the London
money market may be expected to be periodically alTeeted; but
the recent demands upon our resources have had but little
influence upon the market, and should any disturbance again
arise, the usual means may be expected to be adopted to check it.
The withdrawals of gold for transmission to Italy cannot, if
the credit of that country is maintained, be very hurtful to us,
as the supply of gold in the Bank of England is still about
f25,000,000, and it can be made less ea<<y to procure by making
the terms more onerous. We are not indebted to Italy, but the
Government of that country having, as it were, opened a large
credit by the success of its loan, it is able to sei to work to
carry out the design of establishing a gold coinage, which has,
for some years past, engrossed its attention. But to a comparatively poor country like Italy, the course is not entirely a
smooth one, and it is by no means improbable that the Government of Italy will incur a large expense without equivalent
advantages. Germany found the process a tedious one, and
experienced difficulty in retaining the gold when coined.
Should the movements in gold be of such a character vs to
necessitate higher rates of discount, Italian and other stocks
would be offered for sale, and the foreign exchanges would be
speedily rectified.
We should thus exercise our power, which
IS very great, of attracting gold, and Italy would find that to
keep up the state of ostentation of her neighbors is costly and
cent.
is
vexatious.
There has been a settlement on the Stock Exchange this
^eek, and money for shg,rt periods has been more in demand;
but no pressure has been experienced, and the account has
pa.ssed off satisfactorily.
The effect of the gold movements up
to the present time has been to raise the open mai-ket quotations much nearer, to those which prevail at the Bank of
England.
At one period the open market rate of discount was
per cent, but it is now 2M per cent, with an official
minimum of 2^ per cent. An anomaly has therefore ceased
to exist, but there may again be some disparity between the

company movement shows rather distinct signs of
exhaustion. The increasing value of money may be one cause
of this, but a more substantial reason is, that the shares of
many undertakings have fallen to a discount, and that some
distrust in consequence prevails. The public have been very
freely warned of the responsibilities they were incurring, and
of the speculative investments they were making. They seem

have followed the advice of advertising stock brokers, who
circulars, which seem to have
had a fascinating influence on those who have been thrifty
enough to save, but whose further judgment has been at fault
or weak. Before very long some of these companies will be
compelled to wind up, and lawyers and accountants will, as after
former follies on the part of the public, continue to augment
to
issue, periL dically, plausible
own wealth.
The weather has been
their
unsettled during the week, and some
being felt with regard to the harvest. The rainfall
has not been serious, and will prove to be of great advantage
to the crops of roots and grass; but a large quantity of cerea'
produce is in the field waiting to be stacked, but which most
remain, if the weather permits, to dry. The reports regarding
the crop of wheat vary considerably. It is doubtful if it will
amount to an average, and the quality will be less satisfactory
than had been anticpated, if the present rains continue. Mr.
H. Kains. Jackson takes a favorable view of the crop, and expects
an average yield per acre of good quality; but other authorities
are not so sanguine, and believe that, although the crop will be
larger and of better quality than in 1879 and 1880, it will be
below the anticipations which had been formed of it. The crop
will undoubtedly be below seasons of abundance, a moderate
increase over two such indifferent seasons as those of last year
and its predecessor being insufficient to constitute a really
good crop. A few small parcels of new wheat have been
offered for sale, and at Reading, in the neighborhood of which
town the soil produces some of the best wheat grown in the
Kingdom, 563. and 58s. per imperial quarter has been obtained.
The price of wheat has been rising during the week, as accounts
of th6 world's harvest do not lead to the expectation that there
has been much additional production. The Russian crop is,
however, a good one, and should there be any deficiency ia
America, Russia will bo able to supply the loss. The trade is

circular of Secretary
Windom,

So far as our recollection goes, the Secretary virtually estaba new precedent in this action, for although the payments

ant
in
the
principle
established
including the operators in stocks and merchandi.se, that the
Government should always stand ready to manipulate the money
market whenever suflScient pressure is brought to bear by
prominent moneyed men or by the newspapers. The operations
of the Government in changing its bonds into 3^ per cents will
cease with the present transaction, and after that it is to be
hoped that Secretary Windom will take his stand on the broad
ground that it is not the province of the Government to interfere
with the money market, either to accumulate so much money
in the Treasury as to cau?e stringency, or, on the other hand, to
come unexpectedly on the market with 30 or 40 millions of
disbursements to relieve some particular speculation. With the
Government finances now established on a most excellent basis
(barring the accumulation of silver), and with the national bankng system working far more satisfactorily than any other system
ever tried in this country, the older bankers, whose experience
nins back to the days prior to 1860, are inclined to wish for a
little more of the healthy let-alone policy in which business
affairs are left to regnlate themselves by the natural laws of
trade and finance.

In the Investors' Supplement of this date will be found an
article showing with much detail the issues of new stocks and
bonds thus far in the current year.
Our money market has been much easier, and only on Wednesday was a commission on loans charged, when 1-16 per day
was paid on a few loans. The prevailing rates have been
per cent, and the exceptions of 3 and 4 per cent made late in the
day are hardly wortn noting. Prime commercial paper is
quoted at 5@6 per cent.
The Bank of England weekly statement on Thursday showed a
decrea.se of £800,000 in specie, and the percentage of re.serve to
liabilities was 41 11-16 per cent, against 43% last week; the discount rate was advanced a full 1 i>er cent, and is now 4 per cent.
The Bank of France showed a decrease of 4.100,000 francs gold
and an increase of 152,500 francs silver. The discount rate was
raised to 4 per cent.
The last statement of the New York Citv Clearing-House
banks, issued Aug. ao, showed a decrease of $2,805,800 in the
legal reserve, there being a deficiency of
|717,700, against
?2,087,500 surplus the previous week.

Exehantre. The principal event to affect the foreign ex.
changes was the general advance in Bank rates of discount in
Europe. This had been anti>;ipated to some extent, but hardly
such a general rise and determined effort to prevent the export
of specie to this country. The recent shipments have been considerable, and, including the amount withdrawn to-day from the
Bank of England, the total afloat foots up a large amount. Sixty
days bills have been reduced in price, and to-day on actual
transactions prime bankers' sterling was quoted at 4 80®4 80^,
and at 4 62%@4 83 for demand, 4 83^4@4 83>^ for cables, with
prime commercial quoted at 4 77?6@4 7754.
United States Bonds. Grovemment bonds have been lower,
in consequence of the general condition of the market for securities ana the appearance of (he money market as the season
advances. It has also been rumored that Secretary Windom
will proceed to call in a large amount (150,000,000] of the 3>6
per cent bonds which are payable at any time, and it he should
thus continue to pay them off at par, the market price could
hardly rise much above that level. At the lower range of
prices there has been more activity.
Secretary Windom, on August 22, issued the following notice
to holders of called 5 per cent registered bonds

State and Railroad Bonds.—Southern State bonds are
generally depressed, and the Virginias, Louisianas and Tennessees all sell at lower prices. In the past six weeks it is estimated
that New Orleans may have taken as much as $1,000,000 of
Louisiana consols from this market, and a good part of this
amount came from abroad. Railroad bonds nave neld their
prices well on the strictly investment issues; but the prices of
speculative bonds held on margins have declined, in sympathy

Railroad and Misceilaneons Stocks.—The stock market
has been quite irregular in tone and prices, and has been moved
by a nuinber of varying influences. The money market, the
railroad war, the condition of President Garfield, the crop
reports, and other minor matters, have worked from day to day
on one side or the other, and thus contributed to the fluctuation
in prices. In none of these forces was there anything essentially new except in the prospects of the money market, which
Secretary Windom apparently intends to keep at easy rates, so
far as his power may enable him to do so. The main decrease in
wheat is now believed to be in Ohio, Indiana and Illinois, and
with prices ruling in New York at |1 30, or anything above that,
market
it is quite probable that as much wheat will be carried to
and exported as there was la.st year. Also, as to com, the farmers will market a far larger quantity at 60 cents a bushel than at
45 cents, as this is a crop of which only a small portion is usually
turned into ca.sh by the producer when the price is so low as to
make it pay better to feed it to hogs or cattle. Thesei points are
all worthy of notice in considering the question of transportation.
There is no reason why the death of President Garfield
should now can.se any panic in stocks, as that sad event has been
anticipated for days past and its effect has been discounted.
So tar as the general outlook is concerned, the main causes for
any serious decline during the next few months are found in the
cutting of rates by rival lines; in the inflated values of certain
stocks which have not already declined; and in the uncertainties
of a money market which, during the next six months, must sustain an enormous demand upon it for speculative purposes and
from railroad enterprises already in progress and not nearly

& Albany— New York New Haven & Hartford.—At
a recent meeting of the directors of the Boston & Albany Railroad, a proposition was made for a lease of the New York &
New Haven Railroad by the former, for a term of 99 years, at
an annual rental of 9 per cent. It is understood that the proposition was the result of a conference between Mr. Vanderbilt
and the New York & New Haven board and Mr. Bliss. Mr.
Bliss, howtver, did not urge it at the meeting of his directors.
It was stated that Mr. 'Vanderbilt was in favor of it, and that
he might even consent to assume half the lease. The rate of 9
per cent was mentioned in the proposition because that, it was
claimed, is what the New York & New Haven is now earning.
One of the State directors oflfered a resolution that it was inexpedient to make the lease at 9 per cent. This resolution was
finally adopted by a vote of eight to three.
It was argued by
those who opposed the lease, in the first place, that the rental
was too high. A computation showed it would entail a perpetual expense of about $1,600,000 a year. The capitalization
of the proposed leased road was stated to be nearly double what
a parallel line could be built for.

Of the complications between these companies, the
Boston Transcript says
"It will be remembered that the Union Pacific, the Chicago
Burlington & Quiney and the Wabash entered into an agreement about a year ago defining their respective territories. In
this agreement the Union Pacific and the Wabash agreed to
keep out of the territory of the Chicago Burlington & Quiney
in Nebraska
the Chicago Burlington & Qaincy agreed not to
extend its line to Denver, and theWabash agreed to keep out of
the territory of the Chicago Burlington & Quiney in Iowa, save
that these two roads were to extend the Missouri Iowa &
Nebraska Road jointly through southern Iowa to Omaha.
Daring this summer the Wabash, in violation of this agreement, nas built into Des Moines. This the Chicago Burlington
& Quiney considered a violation of the compact of 1880, but
only grumbled. A few weeks ago the blood of the Chicago
Burlington & Quiney managers was again stirred by the organization of a company to extend the Missouri Pacific up the
west bank of the Missouri into the Nebraska territory of the
Pacific'.

Long Island Railroad.— At the call of the Receiver of the
Long Island Railroad, a number of bondholders met at 115
Broadway to take action as to the proposition to reduce the
interest on the Smithtown & Port Jefferson and the Rockaway
branch bonds. The branch of the Long Island Railroad from
the main line at Smithtown to Port Jefferson was mortgaged
for $600,000, the bonds being guaranteed by the Long Island
Railroad. The bonds were to run thirty years and bear interest
at the rate of 7 per cent. At the meeting on Thursday more than
$500,000 of the $600,000 in bonds were represented either in
person or by proxy, and the bondholders agreed to exchange
their 7 per cent bonds for five per cent consolidated bon&.
Secured on the whole line of the Long Island Railroad. The
bondholders of the Rockaway branch agreed at the same time
to similar terms. Their bonds amount to $250,000, run thirty
years and bear 7 per cent interest. These reductions save the
company about $20,000 a year on the interest account.

is being built jointly by the Wabash and the Chicago Burlington & Quincy, and will be jointly operated. The new distance
from Humiston to Shenandoah is about one hundred miles, and

The completion of this line to Shenandoah will enable the
Wabash to open and operate a new route from Chicago to

COMMERCIAL EPITOME.
Feidat Nioht, Apquot 20, 1881.
There have been several influences acting upon trade circles
in the past week. Almost the last hope of the recovery of
President Garfield has been given up, and at this writing his
condition is critical indeed. There was a check to the speculation in bread-ttnffs, attended by a greatly-increased business for
export. A speculative "corner" on August contracts for cotton
has disturbed prices for this staple. Trade generally is fair
opposite the city of New York, along the west shore of
CatskiUs,
the Hudson River to West Point, Nowburg, Kingston,
Athens and Coisackie, to or near Schenectady, and thence along

the old seven towns. We shall continue this double statement for

figures indicate an increase in the cotton in sight
to-night of 419,993 bales as compared with the same date of l&O,
an increase of 688,519 bales as compared with 1879 and an increase of 576,648 bales as compared with 1878.
In the preceding visible supply table we have heretofore only
included the interior stocks at the seven original interior towns.
As we did not have the record of the new interior towns for the
tour years, we could not make a comparison in any other way.

The present prices compare as follows with the rates current
at this time last year:
the above figures.
We point these possibilities out iu order to prevent wrong
conclusions from being drawn from the above tables of deliveries, consumption and stocks, and because our Continental
correspondents do not report any special excess in the mill
stocks.
PROSPECTS.
The advance which has
of late taken place in prices is the
natural and inevitable outcome of the undue and unwarrantable depression which culminated in May last ; and the
reactionary movement fully bears out the forecasts given in
our previous reports, especially that of May 11. The known
facts of the present season were driven out of sight by exaggerated estimates of supply for next season, and bv " bear" sales
at low prices of a crop only just planted! The market was
flooded with a fictitious supply, which for the time being had
as much influence as if it had been real ; and the supply of
cotton actually on hand was ruled by the supposed value of
cotton which might or might not exist in the remote future
Once more " bearing " the market was regarded as a royal and
sure road to fortune. Excessive selling caused an artificial
depression in prices, every fall begat a further decline, and
those who benefitted by the depression congratulated themselves upon their superior foresight and sold more. Only one
result could follow, and it has followed. Whether we have seen
the end of it or not, we know not. Everything depends upon
whether thoso who sold what they had not got have covered their
contracts by re-purchases. Meanwhile, there is plenty of cotton
for spinners, if they will only betake themselves to the lower
grades of American and to the relatively cheaper produce of
Egypt and India. As to the immediate future course of prices,
we are unable to form an opinion, for the simple reason that
the visible facts are overshadowed by the invisible speculative
influences which form the main feature of the present condition of the market. We may state, however, that having in
view the healthy state of trade and the brilliant harvest prospects all over the world, we do not sympathize with the views
of those who look for very low prices before the close of the
current year. Later on, of course, everything will depend upon
the American crop its size and the manner of its distribution.

CODE8E OP THE MANCHESTER MARKET, JULY 9 TO AUOCST
9.
The market opened
firmly and gained ^d. to ^d. per lb. in
yam and l?^d. to 3d. per piece in shirtings between the 9th an;l
16th nit. During the remainder of July the demand fell off,
and here and there buyers obtained a slight concession; but the
fall was recovered towards the close of the month, owing to the
hardening tendency of the raw material. Since then the tone
has been quiet, with an occasional giving way in price; but
with few exceptions, in which there is a decline of about %A.
per lb., the quotations remain at the highest figures touched
three weeks ago. The aggregate sales of the month have fallen
short of the out-turn of the mills, but producers have still
plenty of uncompleted contracts in hand; and as cotton does
not appreciably give way, they are not disposed to take further
orders except at full prices.

Jute Butts, Baooino, Etc.— Business has shown rather more
activity since our last report, and inquiries continue to be made.
The transactions are about 700 rolls, at full prices. There has
been an advance obtained on all grades, and the close is very
firm, with scarcely any cheap parcels to be had. Sellers are
now quoting 10c. for 1% lbs., lOMc for 2 lbs., and ll%ail%e.
for standard qualities. Butts have not changed in price, but
the market is firm in tone, and dealers are refusing offers for
lots as the limit is too low.
We do not hear of any round lots
moving, but a fair demand is reported for jobbing quantities,
and the market closes at 2 13-16@2%c. for paper grades, and
3/^@3Mc. for bagging qualities.

orders. Repellents and cloakings were in steady request at
unchanged prices. Kentucky jeans ruled quiet in agents'
hands, but a good business was reported by jobbers. For flannels and blankets there was a steady inquiry, but selections
