London, Saturday, J uly 21, 1883.
market during the past week has been decidedly
active, and tlie cause of the firmness, if not stringency, which
prevails, is difficult to account for. The foreign exchanges are
generally favorable, trade continues quiet, iu consequence of
which mercantile bills remain scarce, and the autumnal demand
for coin for harvest purposes has not yet commenced, or" has
certainly not yet assumed any considerable proportions. There
has, however, been some eagerness in obtaining accommodation,
and the open market rate of discount being about equivalent
to the Bank of England minimum, the Bank has acquired
some important accession of business.
Evidently the supply of
funds seeking employment has become much reduced, and it is
now perceived that a more cautious
policy is necessary. The
large number of “calls” falling due each week upon shares in
new undertakings, and the heavy amounts which have to be
paid on account of recent loans, are absorbing a very considerabli proportion of the profitsjof the country, and rest is now

There is, however, no real

The only facts in the least unfavorable
are the negotiations in progress with regard to the Suez Canal,
the incident in Madagascar, the circumstance that the autumn
trade does not at present show any signs of improvement, the
spread of the cholera in Egypt, and the recent important
failures, checking, as they have, any tendency to renewed
activity in trade. It is, however, obviously prudent under
the circumstances to await results, while providing against any
possible contingencies. Probably something of that kind has
been in progress this week under the fear that a call for ship¬
ments of gold to America and elsewhere may later on lead to
a higher official rate.

The agitation throughout the country with regard to the
proposed extension of the Suez Canal has been considerable,

The
exports of railroad iron last month to Australia amounted to

tons, against
41,568 tons in 18S2 and 41,587 tons in
13S1. The increase, is therefore important, and as the colonies
have been borrowing freely of late, there is no reason why the
Australian demand for our goods should not continue upon its
present active scale for some time to come.

Respecting the bullion movements during the past week
Messrs. Pixlev & Abell observe:
no demand for gold, and all arrivals arc purchased by
England; about £30,000 in bars and coin having been scut
in; 100.000 sovereigns have been withdrawn for Lisbon. The Tamar,
from the River Plate, brought £13.474; the British Queen, from New
Zealand, £24.000; and the Lusitania, from Australia, £55,000. Some
amount has also arrived froMi the Continent, but the whole, according
to present indications, will ultimately be sold to the Bank of England.
£5,000 was shipped to Bombay on the 17th inst. per 1*. Ac O. steamer
fccrindisi.
.Silver has fallen in value; the Cordillera from Chili, noticed by us last
week, brought £30,800, sold on 13th inst. at 50 7-1 Od. per qz. s andard ;
the price has since receded to 50 5-16d., our quotation of this day, owing
to lower exchanges from India, and to the reduced rate obtained for the
India Council bills yesterday. The arrivals have been altogether unim¬
portant. The P. (kO. steanfer Brindisi took on 17th inst. £54.000 to
Bombay and £55.000 to Calcutta.
Mexican Dollars—The dollars by the French steamer Villb de St. Nazaire, to which we alluded in our last circular, were sold on 13th inst. at
49%<1. per oz., and this price has been maintained since. The Caldera
lias arrived with £27,000. The shipments yesterday, per P. A O. steamer
Rosetta, were—£42,000 to Penang, £60,000 to Singapore and £1,780
to Shanghai.

A telegram just received from Hun¬

yield of produce in Europe will be fairly satisfactory—a result
which should be
congratulatory, as the sowing season was very

Money Market and Financial Situation.—The fail¬

in the shoo and leather trade

during the past week have
feeling which has
been so long prevalent.
But the most careful observers are
satisfied that the causes of the failures are confined mainly to
that particular line of trade, and do not extend to mercantile
credit as a whole.
The general features of “over-production,*
and consequent declining prices during the last
year and a
half, which are at the bottom of the recent failures in the
leather trade, have already had their effects upon some of the
other great lines of trade, and to a large extent these branches

A second track wras laid on the Eastern Division from East
St. Paul to Post’s, from Midvale to Oakdale, aud from Elmo to

Stillwater Junction, 8 miles.
“
Of the new lines in process of construction at date of last
annual report the Norfolk branch has been completed and is in
operation, 19 91-100 miles of track having been laid and the line
equipped with depot buildings, stock yards and water stations.
Terminal facilities at Norfolk, owned jointly with the Union
Pacific Railroad Co., afford excellent means of transfer with that
road. Connection is had at this point, also, with the Sioux City

& Pacific R. R.

In Wisconsin the line of the Superior Branch

was

completed from

to

connection with the Northern Pacific R. R.

point nine miles above Superior Junction
near Superior
City, a distance of 51 42-100 miles. For the construction of this
line the company will receive ten sections per mile of valuable
pine land under the Wisconsin legislation of 1SS2. On the 4th
and 5th extensions of the Northern Division, 26 miles of track
was laid and ballasted, and considerable grading and
bridging
done between the end of the track and Bayfield. A line was
graded into Ashland upon a location well calculated to accom¬
modate the business of the mills at that place.and to materially
increase the lumber traffic of the road. The track of the Chip¬
pewa Falls & Northern Railway, a proprietary road, was ex¬
a

a

tended from Bloomer to within less than 3 miles of
Chicago
Junction on the Northern Division, a distance of 52 miles, mak¬

ing a total of 149 33-100 miles new track laid on all divisions
during the year. It is expected that the grade of the Northern
Division will be finished to Bayfield ready for the track by
July

1, 1883, a distance of 29 miles from the end of the track as at
present laid. *
* Grading and bridging of the branch to
Ashland are finished. This line will be ready for operation by
July 15, 1883. Considerable ballasting remains to be done upon

the Superior branch.”

REPORTS.

(For the year ending Dee. 31, 18S2.)
A preliminary statement of this road’s operations for the
year 1882 was published in last week’s Chronicle.
This week
the pamphlet report has been issued, and from it the infor¬
mation below is condensed. A controlling interest in the stock
of this company is now owned by the Chicago & Northwestern
Railway Company.
The average number of miles of road operated during
the whole year, including leased lines, was 1,044. The
miles in operation Dec. 31, 1882, were 1,115, an increase
over
1881,
of 112 miles; proprietary roads 34 ;
total
miles, 1,150. This mileage is divided as follows: Eastern
division, 259 miles; Northern division, 182 miles; St. Paul divi¬
sion, 166 miles; Sioux City division, 31$ miles.
Nebraska
division, 190 miles; proprietary roads, 34 miles.
During the year the capital stock was increased on account
of 46 miles Norfolk line, 14 miles C. F. & N. Railroad,
20 miles Superior branch, and
20 miles Bayfield Exten¬
sion, $1,509,900 common and $1,006,600 preferred ; being
at the rate of $15,000 per mile of common and $10,000
per
mile of preferred; total $2,516,500, less unissued,
$237,500, making the increase $2,279,000. The bonded- debt
was increased during the year
$1,719,312 by the issue of
Chicago St. Paul Minneapolis & Omaha Railway consolidated

Rutland Railroad.

{For the year ending June 30, 1883).
At the annual meeting of stockholders he'd in Rutland, Vt.
Aug. 1, the result of the ballot was the election of the Clement
ticket.
Fifty-five thousand shares were voted, the Clement
ticket receiving 36,244 votes. Following are the newly-elected
directors: John T. Coolidge, George M. Barnard aud James O.
Sargent of Boston ; William Wills and Bradley B. Smalley,
Burlington, Vt.; John W. Stewart, Middlebury, Vt.; Charles
Clement and Pereival W. Clement, Rutland, Vt., and George H.
Ball, Worcester, Mass,
The directors report no change in the income of the road
during the past year. The disbursements have been increased
by the payments for scrip of $27,486, mostly on a judgment in
February last in favor of F. Chalfee, recovered after a long liti¬
gation. It has been for some time and until quite recently the
practice of the Treasurer to treat the rent of the road on the
last of the month for which it
as a matter of fact it was not

was

earned

as

cash

on

hand, while

payable until the 25th of the fol¬
lowing month. This system has been changed during the past
year, and the earnings for June appear as “rent due and unpaid.”
This will account for the statement of earnings being $236,500
instead of $25S,000, as heretofore.
The payment of the
judgment and the correction of the account as above referred
to, explain the necessity for passing the dividend in February
last.
Reports have been sent to the stockholders concerning
the irregularities of the late Treasurer, both in the overissue of
stock and the misappropriation of the money of the corporation.
From an investigation beginning on or about the first of May,
and continued uninterruptedly until the present time, it appears
that tire amount of preferred stock in excess of the legal amount
is, at this date, 2,391 shares, and of the common stock 496 shares,
and that the deficiency in cash is $42,717. In consequence of
these deficiencies, no dividend can be made at this time.

It is

hoped that there will be realized from the property of the late
Treasurer

a sum

sufficient to reimburse the road for the cash

compiled iu the usual form for deficiencies, and from him, or the parties who hold the
issued stock, an indemnity for the same.

There are yet 38/£ miles of iron on the road, but this is

will be decreased about $22,000 a year.

Friday Night, Aug. 3.1883.

The position of mercantile affairs

in nar¬

Several large dealers from the extreme Southwest are in

-sins have continued quiet ; the present rates of
freights

preclude an eiport movement ; strained to good strained
quoted at $1 55(®$1 60. Spirits turpentine has been advanced,
in sympathy with the Southern and English advices ; there
were sales to-day in yard
at 38%c., and the figures at the close*
were 39c.
Hops have had a better movement for export and
home consumption, and, in view of the generally
good crop re¬
ports, State 1832s are not quoted above 23@23c., and State 188JU
18@20c. Ingot copper has been steady, although quieter, £t
15@lh^2C for Lake. Tin shows a slight easiness, while pig tin,
rails, lead and spelter are essentially unchanged. Linseed oil
is steady at 55c. f >r chy and 53c. for Western.
Lard oil has
been advanced to 70c.

Wool has had

a

better

sale, and the

general tone has been improved. The attendance of manufact¬
uring buyers has increased, and the advices from the interior
are
•

stronger.

Ocean

freight

room

has latterly shown easiness.

Receipts from the Plantations.—The following table is
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
that these figures, of course, do not include overland receipts or
Southern consumption; they are simply a statement of the
weekly movement from the plantations of that part of the crop
which finally reaches the market through the out-ports.

latterly been favorable, and it is averred that the export¬
surplus will be equal to that of last year. Spring wheat
has been in demand, but the sales have been rather
small,
owing to the moderate supply available. White has sold very
sparingly, especially No. 1.
Of No. 2 red the sales have
decreased, partly owing to the scarcity of strictly prime grade ;
it is still charged that the standard has been
lowered very materiady. The visible supply of wheat in the country is steadily
augmenting ; at Chicago it is large, because prices are so high
that shipments eastward are in a
great measure checked. The
telegraphic communication with the West, is more regular, but
there is less life in the speculation than there was a few
weeks
ago.
To-day the market here, in response to higher prices in
Chicago, advanced % to lc., with a fair degree of
activity.

Goods.—There was a slight improvement
men’s-wear woolens by jobbers and the
clothiug trade, but business in this connection was by no means
active, and prices continued in buyers’ favor. Some fair orders
for spring worsted coatings were booked for future delivery at
about 5 per cent below last year’s prices.
Satinets were a trifle
more active than of late, and there were moderate dealings in
Kentucky jeans and doeskins. Cloakings, Jersey cloths and
repellents were severally in fair demand, and a good business
was done in flannels and sackings ; but blankets were
more or
less quiet.
Worsted and all-wool dress goods met with fair
sales, and hosiery and fancy-knit woolens were moderately
active, but shirts and drawers continued sluggish.
Foreign Dry Goods.—Aside from a few specialties, as British
dress goods, velvets and velvet ribbons, etc., in which there
was a very fair movement, imported goods were rather quiet.
Silks and Continental dress fabrics were slow of sale, and linens
and white goods remained dull. Lices and embroideries were
lightly dealt in, and men’s-wear woolens were in limited request

country the reports, though at times somewhat conflicting,
have latterly been favorable, and it is averred that the
export¬
able surplus will be equal to that of last year.
Spring wheat
has been in demand, but the sales have been rather
small,
owing to the moderate supply available. White has sold very
sparingly, especially No. 1. Of No. 2 red the sales have
decreased, partly owing to the scarcity of strictly prime grade ;
it is still charged that the standard has been lowered
very ma¬
teria1 ly. The visible supply of wheat in the
country is steadily
augmenting ; at Chicago it is large, because prices are so high
that shipments eastward are in a great measure checked.
The
telegraphic communication with the West is more regular, but
there is less life in the speculation than there was a few
weeks
ago.
To-day the market here, in response to higher prices in
Chicago, advanced % to lc., with a fair degree of activity.

clothing trade, but business in this connection was by no means
active, and prices continued in buyers’ favor. Some fair orders
for spring worsted coatings were booked for future delivery at
about 5 per cent below last year’s prices.
Satinets were a trifle
more active than of late, and there were moderate dealings iu
Kentucky jeans and doeskins. Cloakings, Jersey cloths and
repellents were severally in fair demand, and a good business
was done in liannels and sackings ; but blankets were more or
less quiet.
Worsted and all-wool dress goods met with fair
sales, and hosiery and fancy-knit woolens were moderately
active, but shirts and drawers continued sluggish.
Foreign Dry Goods.—Aside from a few specialties, as British
dress goods, velvets and velvet ribbons, etc., in which there
was a very fair movement, imported goods were rather quiet.
Silks and Continental dress fabrics were slow of sale, and linens
