are seen this week in the report by the Bank of Engla nd
of a loss of £1,000,000 gold during the last seven days.
The possible influence of this loan for £15,000,000, not
only upon the money markets of Europe, but upon our
own, is a matter that merits important consideration.
It
is generally believed that as soon as the crops begin to move!
the rates of foreign exchange, now already quite near the
specie-importing point, will fall still lower and make it
profitable to import gold to this country.- In view of the?
new demand that Europe will have to meet, the question
j
is raised, can we depend with certainty upon importations •
■of gold from abroad this fall ?
Should our commerce re-;

While without doubt

supplies,
figures would seem to make it certain that it is not
likely that our wants will be very urgent or anywhere near
as heavy as in 1879 or 1880.
Now as to our ability to draw what we do need.
The
trade returns given on another page show that we are in a
much stronger position now than a year ago for command¬
ing gold imports. The excess of exports over imports of
merchandise and specie, was, in 1879-80, $91,792,521 ; in:
the year just passed it was $168,557,004.
We are thus
pretty nearly 77 millions better off in this respect than in
1880.
Yet with an unliquidated balance of not quite 92
million dollars left outstanding at the close of 1879-80—a
good part of it, too, only apparent, not real—we were able
to draw from Europe during 1880-8L more than 97 mil¬
lions of gold. It may be argued that it was the condition of
the 1880-1 trade, and not the balance outstanding at the
end of 1879-80, that permitted these imports of gold, and
we admit this, in part.
-It may be further said that the
nominal balanceof 168^-millions on June 1,1881, is therefore of no consequence, and that all will depend upon the
trade of the current year.
To prove that the large balance
of 168£ millions was of no consequence it would first have,
these

be demonstrated that interest
payments on securities
abroad,, freight charges on imports, and other items
into the account, had wiped it all
out.
But waiving this, and assuming that we will have to
rely upon current trade, the outlook is equally encouraging.
Some anticipate that our exports will be so largely dimin¬
ished by deficient crops as to make any merchandise bal¬
ance in our favor exceedingly problematical.
We do not
share this view.
Should a decreased production of wheat,

instance, cause a falling off in the quantity left for
export, it would not be at all surprising to see higher prices
as a natural concomitant, with the effect, as far as values
are concerned, of offsetting, in whole or in part, the loss
for
quantity by an increase in price. As a case in point,
have the exports of wheat during the last two years.

OUR FOREIGN COMMERCE.
EXPORTS
It is
scarcely
remark that the trade returns
for the fiscal year ended June 30, just issued, are ex¬
tremely favorable. The excess of merchandise exports
over imports reaches the
large aggregate of $259,72 6,254/
or $92,042,342 more than in the
previous fiscal year, and
has only once been exceeded, namely in the fiscal year;
1878-79, when the excess was $264,661,666.
Of the
balance in our favor there was wiped out by net importa¬
tions of specie $91,168,650 in the year just closed, and
$75,891,391 in the previous year. There is thus an un¬
liquidated balance of $168,557,604 this year, against
$91,792,521 the previous fiscal year. How much of this
is apparent only, it is of course impossible to
say. Yet it
is indisputable that as the balance is so much
greater than
in the previous year, our
ability to draw gold from Europe,
other things being equal, should be increased.
The merchandise exports are the largest on reoord,
and,
strangely enough, the merchandise imports are secondonly to those of the previous fiscal year, when the move-;
naent was swollen by the
prevalence of the speculative;

During June, the last month of the fiscal year, the ex¬
ports fell off almost nine million dollars. This is ac¬
counted for by a smaller cotton movement, a smaller breadstuffs movement, and a smaller provisions movement. As
to all these items it is to be said that the
exports were very-
heavy in the earlier months of the current calendar year,
which may explain the smaller totals now, though as to
provisions the higher prices current this year also were
a powerful factor in
bringing about a decline in ship,
menta.

July is the turning point of the year, and
is usually attended by some uncertainty of feeling 'in
regard to commercial and financial prospects. The grain
harvest m the Northern and Western States is just then
beginning, and the markets are full of rumors favorable
and unfavorable; Chicago in July is a place where veracity
is exceptional.
This year it has been even more difficult
than usual to. get at the real condition of the wheat crop,
or to estimate its probable out-turn, and as the prosperity
of the West, the railroad earnings, the foreign exchanges
importation of gold, and, indeed, the general de¬
goods throughout the country, depend to some

Foreign exchange had a downward tendency,
and the
rates were approaching a point where imports of gold
would again take place. The imports of merchandise

very dear com¬

turning
of their attention to the production of com¬
neglected of late years, but which
foreign growers find it difficult to compete with. Fine old
cheeses and fresh butter still command a high
price, the sup¬
ply being very limited. To produce them is a more laborious
occupation than the cultivation of wheat; but farms will be
made to pay, and those commodities must be raised which are
the more likely to yield remunerative results.
The directors of the Bank of England have made no
change
in their rates of discount this week, and the minimum
quota¬
tion remains, therefore, at 2/£ per cent. The
money market is,
however, in a very easy condition, and the discount houses have
again reduced their allowance of interest for deposits to 1 and
1/4 per cent at call and notice respectively. The rate of dis¬
count in the open market is only Vyi to 1% per cent, so that the
discount of choice bills is poor business when nearly the equiv¬
alent is given for deposits. The discussion which has been
carried on respecting the amount of gold which Italy may draw
from European countries, in connection with the loan
recently
introduced, has led some to conclude that a reduction in the
Bank rate is doubtful; and it seems very evident that
only a
possible demand for gold prevents a change being made. A
Bank rate of 2% per cent and an open market rate of 1% to 1%
per cent are an anomaly; but it must be borne in mind that
the directors of the Bank of England made a few years ago
some modifications and changes in their discount
department,
and undertook—under certain conditions—to discount, if the
state of the market admitted of it, bills under their published
minimum. No doubt, they are pursuing that course now, and
hence the present Bank rate of 2% per cent must be regarded
as an almost nominal quotation.
Money is now at a very low
point, and there seems to be no prospect of any improvement.

Owing
a circumstance, much inconvenience has been caused.
to the absence of any abundant fall of rain, the Water¬
works
Companies are getting anxious, and in many parts of the
Metropolis only a scanty supply of water is given. The two
previous occasions when there was so protracted a drought
were in 1870 and 1868, and those
years were remarkable for the
fine crops of wheat which were produced. The heat of the
weather during the current month has brought the crops
rapidly forward, and in early localities the harvesting of cereals
fias already commenced. It is still believed that the
crop of
wheat will be of good quality, but variable in quantity. The
barley crop is expected o /iJil '

Reading has been one of the most prominent stocks this week,
and advanced sharply on the report of the financial scheme
proposed by Mr. Bond, which is to be completed in details and
submitted August 10. In order to float well their new securities,
it would appear that the managers should hasten to put their
scheme in good shape and avail themselves of the present easy
money market in New York and London.

but the tone is firmer in consequence of the small supply of

mid-summer period, when
many of the brokers and their customers are absent from town.
After showing considerable strength in the early part of this
week, and a well-sustained re-action from the bear movement of
last week, the market is again somewhat off, and prices to-day
are heavy.
This appears to be less significant from the fact
that there is little activity in operations these warm days, and
prices seem to droop from neglect rather than from vigorous
hammering, as before. Railroad earnings are generally showing
very well, and ever since the snows of winter melted (which was
about the first of May in the Northwest), the companies have
been making a handsome gain in traffic. Next week we shall
publish the extended monthly tables exhibiting the earnings for
the month of July and seven months of the present year, in com¬
parison with the corresponding periods in 1880. The injury] to
result from smaller grain crops is unquestionably exaggerated,
so far as the general traffic on all railroads is concerned, although
it may be true this year, as in any year, that along the line of

State and Railroad Bonds.—State bonds have shown some
activity in Louisiana consols, which advanced above 70 but fell
off again to-day. No further news from Nashville has been
received concerning the meeting of the Supreme Court.
Railroad bonds on a fair business are well maintained at their
high prices.

extreme range of 2@4 per cent, according to the
borrower and the collateral. Prime commercial paper of two to
four months sells at 3 to 4^ per cent.
The Bank of England statement on Thursday showed a
decrease of £1,000,000 in specie for the week, mainly owing
to the Italian loan, and the percentage of reserve to liabilities
was 42/6 against 45 7-16 last week; the discount rate is un¬
changed at 2% per cent. The Bank of France lost 1,025,000
francs gold and gained 1,600,000 francs silver.
The last statement of the New York City Clearing-House
banks, issued July 30, showed a decrease in the surplus above
legal reserve of $47,975, the total surplus being $10,020,725,
against $10,078,700 the previous week.

freight war is still the most potent
force, and although Mr. Fink, the commissioner of the trunk
line pool, has called a meeting of the managers for August 10,
there does not appear to be much confidence that a settlement
of the difficulties will be arranged. The following is the text of
the circular issued on Wednesday by Commissioner Fink : “ I am
requested by five of the general managers of Western roads to
call a meeting of the joint executive committee to consider the
cause# which have led to the present ruinous war of rates and
the means that should be adopted in the future to maintain the
tariffs established from time to time by this committee. In com¬
pliance with this request, I call a meeting on Wednesday, the
10th of August, at 11 o’clock, at the office of the committee in
New ^ork. Please let me know whether you will be pre¬
sent or represented by an officer with full authority to act
for you. Please answer at once so that in case a sufficient num¬
ber of companies cannot be represented at that time to transact
business, the meeting can be postponed and notice can be given

Jersey City Finances.--The Jersey City Board of Finance
last week fixed the tax levy for the ensuing year. The total
amount of the appropriation is $1,554,262 14.

the city for the support of the public schools, leaving a total
of $1,387,948 08 to be raised by taxation. The appropriations
to the several boards of local government are much less than
the amounts of the estimates.

Kansas City Fort Scott & Gulf—Kansas City Springfield
& Memphis.—Following is the circular regarding the extension
of the Kansas City Fort Scott & Gnlf Railroad to Memphis :
.
It is proposed by certain parties to build a
Mo. (the present terminus of the Fort Scott
Boston, July 30, 1881.
railroad from Springfield,
Southeastern & Memphis
Railroad), in a southeasterly direction to the Mississippi River, opposite
Memphis, a distance of about 275 miles. To accomplish this purpose it
is proposed to form two corporations—under the laws of Missouri and
Arkansas respectively—the two to be ultimately merged into one cor¬
poration, to be known as the Kansas City Springfield & Memphis Rail¬
road Company.
The couutry through which this road is projected is characterized
in some sections
by rich farming and cotton lands, and other sections
rich in minerals aDd forests of valuable oak and pine timber. It will
furnish a near outlet to the Mississippi River for the grain raised along
roads already constructed in Kansas and Missouri, and at a point below
which navigation is never interrupted by ice or low water. Memphis
will be an important distributing point for the packing-house products
of Kansas City, and for hay, corn and flour through all the Southern
States east of the Mississippi River.
The road will be constructed in all respects in a substantial manner,
with iron bridges, and steel rails weighiug not less than lifty-six pounds
are
yard, and will be furnished with equipment estimated to cost
Including the equipment, the estimated cost of the road is
$5,600,000.
By subscriptions to stock of the corporation to be formed under
the laws of Missouri (ultimately to be converted into tlie stock of the
consolidated company), and by the issue of $6,000,000 first mortgage
forty-year six per cent bonds of tlie company when consolidated, to be
paid for in the manner hereinafter stated, it is proposed to raise $6,000,000 in cash-a sum sufficient to meet the oost of construction and
equipment, and the accruing interest while under construction; also for
side tracks and branches if deemed expedient.
per
$750,000.
In consideration of the additional business to accrue to the Kansas
City Fort Scott & Gulf Road from business going to and coming from
the new line, it is proposed that the Kansas City Fort Scott & Gulf Rail¬
road Company shall execute a traffic contract with the Kansas City
Springfield 6i Memphis Railroad Company, agreeing to set aside fifteen'
(15) per cent of its gross earnings derived from business going to cr
coming from tlie Kansas City Springfield & Memphis Road, fer the term
of forty years.
The amount set aside under said traffic contract to be applied—

Lake and Canal Rates in June.—The Buffalo Commercial
Advertiser says: “ If any one entertains a doubt as to the
each in cash), or some
demoralizing influence of railway wars upon the transportation
business, it will be dispelled by a casual glance at the freight
quotations and freight earnings. As already shown in these
columns, the rail rate from Chicago to New York before the
rupture [before navigation opened] was 35 cents a hundred on
grain. It is now from 10 to 12% cents. The following state-

[Vol. XXXIII
—The
Philadelphia North American says of this plan : “A
gentleman who somehow managed to get a look at the printed
form of the scheme, but who aid not examine it
closely, says
his impression is that only the $60,000,000 of three
per cent
bonds are to be entitled to 6 per cent when earned, and not the
$40,1)00,000 of four-and-a-half per cents.
The four-and-alialfs, however, take precedence of the threes, so it virtually
amounts to
of second
$40,000,000 of first preferred stock and $60,000,000
preferred, with $12,000,000 to $15,000,000 of new
common, the latter being the only one of the three issues
really called stock. The new bonds are to be exchanged for
the
old, and holders of such of the latter as are well

Long Island—Flushing & North Shore.—Subsequent to
the foreclosure of the first mortgage on the Flushing & North
Shore Railroad, the Long Island City & Flushing Railroad Com¬
pany was organized and took charge of the ruad, which runs
from Long Island City, by way' of Flushing, to Whitest-one.
The company has leased its property and franchises to the
Long Island'Railroad Company for 50 years.
—The extension of the Brooklyn & Montauk line from Patchogue, N. Y., eastward to Moriches on the Sag Harbor branch of
the main line (13 miles) is now completed. This forms a line
along the south side of the island from Jamaica to Sag Harbor,
nearly parallel all the way with the original road through the
centre of the island from Jamaica to Greenport.
Marquette Houghton & Ontonagon.—This company has
called $1,750,000 of its first mortgage 6 per cent bonds for pay¬
ment and cancellation with the proceeds of the sale of its land
grant, and from fifty to one hundred thousand more will be
called and canceled.
The cash return to the company from
the sale of its land grant after deducting commissions, ex¬
penses, etc., is about $2,400,000, and the $500,000 or $600,000
not used to cancel the 6 per cent bonds will be retained
by the
New England Trust Company for the redemption and cancella¬
tion of the 8 per cent bonds now ia price beyond the reach of
the trustees of the land grant.—Boston Transcript.
Memphis Holly Springs & Selma.—The stockholders and
directors of the Memphis Holly Springs & Selma Railroad met
at Memphis, August 2, and changed the name of the company
to the Memphis Selma & Brunswick Railroad. Mr. Frederick
Wolffe was elected President. The capital stock of the com¬
pany was increased to $3,000,000.
Memphis Paducah & Northern.—The Memphis Paducah &
Northern Railway, running between Paducah, Ky., and Mem¬
phis, Tenn., a distance of 165 miles, was sold at auction this
week by A. H. Muller & Son, for $2,300,000, to C. P.
Huntington,
John Eccles and H. E. Huntington. The sale was made under
decree of the United States Circuit Court for the Western
District of Tennessee in the suit of A. C. Wertheim and others
against the railroad company.

Northern Pacific.—The Missouri Division of the Northern
Pacific from Bismarck, on the Missouri River, to Glendive, on
the Yellowstone, 221 miles, was to have been turned over to the
transportation department on August 1.
Philadelphia & Heading.—In Philadelphia, August 3, the
board of directors of the Philadelphia & Reading Railroad
Company held a session, at which they considered a plan of re¬
organization submitted by President Bond. The members of
the board were not prepared to take definite action
upon the
details, although in its general form they approved it. The
matter was referred to a special committee,
consisting of Presi¬
dent Bond and Messrs. Welsh and
Shipley, who will perfect the
arrangements and make a report to a meeting to be held on
Wednesday, August 10. No official statement of the plan was
given out; but it was reported by telegraph in New York that
the scheme proposed the issue of a
general mortgage on the
properties of the company for $100,000,000, $40,000,000 of

promises to have lines equivalent in working
capacity to the present Western Union system in operation by
January, 1883. This they expect to accomplish by the use of
patents on a new system of automatic and fac-simile telegraph,
the owner of which is said to have received $1,000,000 for the
exclusive privilege obtained by the company, and which enables
them, they say, to do all the profitable telegraph business of
the country on 30,000 miles of wire, now done on 250,000 miles.
They contemplate a system of postal telegraph stamps for long
messages and letters, and the fac-simile feature of their patents
enables music, drawings, signatures, &c., to be received
exactly
as written or made.
They also own the Gray harmonic system,
which allows seven messages to be sent simultaneously over a
single wire, in the same or opposite direction, each message
being sent, as it were, in a different key or tone from the others.
This embraces the Way duplex system, by which any number
of stations on a line may communicate with each other on a
single wire on which through business is simultaneously being
done. The company has also bought the patents for the com¬
pound wire usea by the American Rapid Telegraph Company,
with the machinery and appliances used in its manufacture, as
well as the factory, The price paid is said to have been
$1,500,000. This purchase will prevent the American Rapid
Telegraph Company from extending their lines, except upon
terms stipulated by the Postal Telegraph Company. The esti¬
mated cost of the company’s lines, carrying 30,000 miles of
wire, with all equipments, office repairs and incidentals, is
$15,000,000.—The Public.
Richmond & Alleghany—Ohio Central.—The syndicate
committee has agreed to issue to each subscriber for $10,000 of
construction loan, $8,000 first mortgage 6 per cent fortv-year
bonds, $8,000 7 per cent non-cumulative income bonds and
$10,000 stock of consolidated companies. Securities will be
prepared immediately and issued when 50 per cent of sub¬
scriptions have been paid in. A call for 10 per cent, payable
at Metropolitan Bank August 15, is made.
A contract has been
let for the building of the river division, and engineers have
been on the ground, examining into the site for the proposed
bridge across the Ohio River.

Rutland Railroad.—The annual meeting of the stockhold
of the Rutland Railroad Company was held at Rutland, Vt.,
July 27. Mr. G. M. Barnard, of Boston, stated that next year

the income of the corporation will be $269,784, the
expendi¬
tures only $192,600, leaving nearly $78,000, which will pay a
dividend of $2 per share on the preferred stock. After deduct¬
ing the dividend already declared, there would still remain in
the treasury $29,000. The company, therefore, could in January
next, if thought best, declare a second dividend of $1 50 per

St. Louis Iron Mountain & Southern.—This company has
issued the following circular, signed by Mr. Marquana, the
President.
“New York. July 29, 1881.
“The St. Louis Iron Mountain & Southern Railway Company have, for
a long time, been considering the advantages to result from occupying
the territory in Arkansas strictly tributary to the line of their road.
This determination has been strengthened by numerous appeals to the
company from towns and counties along the projected routes. It has
finally been decided by the board, under the advice of the executive
committee, to build—under the authority contained in the Cairo & Fulton
Railroad charter—a line from Knobel, on the northern state line of
Arkansas, southwardly through Crowley’s Ridge via Forrest City, on
the Memphis & Little Rock Railway, and thence to the southeast coruer
of Ashley County, on the State line of Louisiana, about two hundred and
fifty miles, with a branch eastward to Kenuett. This route sweeps the
entire range of eastern counties in the growing State of Arkansas.
