over their wheat, and that will be some compensation for
their losses on barley and oats.

The invitation for subscriptions to the £4,000,000 5 per
cent
preference stock of the Manchester Ship Canal does not
appear
to have met with a ready response. In London,
so far as can
be ascertained, the subscriptions have been few
and far
between, and although the scheme has met with better
success
in the provinces, it is understood that the
aggregate of the
applications is only some £3,000,000, or one-half
of the sum
required. The shares are nominally quoted
at a fractional
discount.

management of Mr. C. W. Barron. The experience of Mr,
Barron on the financial column of the Boston Iranseript for

which the numbers tbus far have been full of fresh news items
such as stockbrokers most require in their offices. The subscription price by mail (including letter postage) is $1 50 per
month, and it will be well worth the money to all persons interested in the financial and railroad news for which Boston

State and Railroad Bonds.— State bonds have been very
dull, the sales reported at the Board being very limited, and
coniiDcd to few issues, in which the prices have not changed
materially.
The railroad
bond market has followed the course of stocks
very closely, though there has been no special activity in
bonds.
In fact, during the most active speculation in stocks,
bonds were rather neglected, though the business for the week
is about up to the average.
The tone of the market hag been
decidedly unsettled and irregular, and many cla,sses, especially
the lower- priced ones, have been quite weak and declining. The
most conspicuous weakness was in the following: Fort Worth
& D<;nver Ists, Richmond & Allegheny Ists, Oliio Southern incomes. Green Bay incomes and Texas & Pacific income and land
grant.
There was more or less recovery from the lowest prices,
in sympathy with a better stock market, and the tone of the
market was stronger during the latter part of the week. The
only class in which there has been much activity is FortWoith
& Denver Ists, most of the list bein": dull.
Railroad and Miscellaneous Stocks.— The business at the
Stock Exchange has been more active during the past week, and a
much unsettled and demoralized condition of affairs has prevailed. The weakness which set in last week made further progress and prices were forced down still lower by jjcrsistent bear
pressure. In most of the leading stocks, and in fact on a large
part of the list, the lowest prices of the year were made, and
during the vigorous hammering of the bears there seemed to be
little or no resistance to the decline.
There have been rallies,
however, and at times these reactions were quite sharp. The
first important rally occurred on Thursday, when a decidedly
better feeling prevailed, and the purchases in the morning,
both to cover shorts and for the long account, were .active.
The circular of Secretary Fairchild led to an easier feeling in
regard to the future of the money market, as it showed a definite purpose on his part to release funds, and this assisted the
upward reaction. There has also been active buying for foreign account, which has occasioned a weakening in sterling
exchange.
The weakness of the market has been very general,
and extended throughout the whole list, though it has been
more pronounced in some stocks than in others.
There were no developments to adequately account for the
decline, and it has been, as usual of late, mainly due to the
action of the bears, who have controlled things pretty much
their own way.
The Gould stocks for a long time past have
been conspicuous for yieldin<^ most easily in each downwjird
turn, and often leading the market in the decline.
General
conditions remain favorable, and higher jirices are constantly
predicted, especially since the recent decline reached a point
where stocks apparently became a pood purchase on their
merits as dividend payers, or on their prosjxictive earnings.
The improvement of Thursday has since t)ecn maintained in
all except the Northern PaciBcs, and the strongest tone and
highest prices were generally shown towards the close of business to-day (Friday).

To meet the cost of the California & Oregon Division, and
other extensions and improvements, as well as the necessary
additions to equipment, buildings and terminal facilities; to
provide for the floating debt, and to retire the bonds that
mature in the near future, the Company has executed
:f 16,000,000 Pifty-Year Six Per Cent Bonds.
These bonds are secured by a mortgage made to William E.
Brown and Frank S. Douty, of San Francisco, trustees, and
are a first lien upon certain valuable real estate of the Companv in the City of San Francisco, comprising an undivided
half of sixty acres of land and water-front, known as the
"Mission Bay Grant ;" also upon aU the property of the Company situated on the easterly shore of the Bay of San Francisco, in the City of Oakland, comprising three tracts of land
and water-front (an area of about .500 acres), with the extensive and costly wharves, stations, shops and buUdings thereon,
and some 12}^ miles of tracks.
By exchanges made prior to, or by redemption at, maturity,
in 1890, to the $687,000 Eight Per Cent Bonds of the San
Francisco Oakland & Alameda Railroad Co. the new bonds
will become a first lien on that portion of the road (about 5
miles) formerly known by that name.
By the retirement of the remainder of the Land Bonds of
1890 from proceeds of land sales, or by redemption, the new
bonds will beiton.e the first lien on the unsold lands, now esti,
mated at 11,500,000 acres.
The amount of Land Bonds outstandfng December 31, 1886,
was |4,.')20,000 and there were on hand cash and land notes,
appUcablo from time to time to further cancellations, $3,;
724,209, leaving about 11,800,000 to be provided for
by
sales
or otherwise.
These bonds are also a second lien, subject to the lien of
mortgage bonds now outstanding, or extensions of the
same, upon the

together with the workshops, depots, equipment, rolling

Being used for funding, or for refunding, existing debt,
part of which bears a higher rate of interest, the present issue
of bonds does not increase the interest habiUty of the Company, except to the small extent made necessary by new construction and betterments. The net earnings heretofore have
more than sufficed to meet the annual interest and all fixed
charges, including the requirements of the Thurman Sinking
Fund Act.
The bonds and overdue coupons are receivable at par in
payment for lands.
Bonds are in denominations of $1,000 each, numbered from
1 to 16,000 inclusive!, are dated Oct. 1, 1886, and mature Oct.
1936; bear six per cent interest in gold coin, payable April 1

TOlhe Slocl-hoUtert of the Atchison Topeka <£ Santa Fe tail ond Co.:
Tbe diri'ctors of the Atchisdn Topeka & Santa Fe K .ilroad Company,
tlie
after full consideration, unaniinoiiely recommend an Inereaso of
capital sfopk of tUis Company from .$68,Oi 0,000 to $7.'i,,000.00i', and
have cal cd a special meetiug of the stoekliolders of tlie Company for
tbh fifth day of September, 1887, at Topeka, Kansas, to vote upoii this
recommendation.
At the meelins of May 5. 1887. the stoi-tholders approved various
••xtensicns of the Company's system, and also accepted the Act of
1887. which authoilaes the issue of capital stock to mcetihecoHt of
such extetsioDS Itls dei med wise to make a lartlal useof this authorJty, and also to provide for the increase of rolling stock and facilities,
made nccessai-y t.y the pif sent and piospective traffic.
When the lepoit for the aniiuil meelias was prepared, neither
cllfflctors nor sKickholders onttcipatcd the immense increase of business
which th'^ company lias since had, ai d which has originated not only
on Its new lines, but upon all i>a t> of lis system. Fur the si^ months
endiUK Julv 1, 1887, the net earnlnss exceeded by more than $1,200,000
the net earnings for ths flrst sit months of the year 1886. The earnings are still im reaeing. and what has always been true in the past may
be'expectfd this year also— namely, that the revenue of the second six
imonths of the vear will be considerably in excess of that of the first six
moQlhs. The 'result of this greatly-increased traflic is that the company's rolling stock and etinipuient have been overtaxed: that, large as
uas been the increase of earnings, they would hare been still greater
If the transportation facilities had been larger and that to b andle not
only the traffic witlln reach, but that sure to flow from the recent
accessions to the sytem, very large additions to its rolling stock
equipment and facilities should he made without delay.
The directors believe that the cost of these increased business facilities si ould be so met as to erahlR the stockholders to benetit by the iu-CECased earning capacity of their road. The earnlDgs are now more
than suffli lent to pay dlvliiei ds at the rate of seven per centum upon
Uie tapital stock of the company, increased as above reconim-nded.

The speculation
In cotton for future delivery at this mar-efchas been fairly active for the week under review, and th»
course of prices has fluctuated so sharply and widely as to
the regular room traders full scope for the employment
of their peculiar tactics. There was a considerable decline-ott
Saturday, as the adverse reports from the growing crop lacked
confirmation but on Monday tho reports from Georgia and.
the CaroUnas that hoivji rains had caused floods, with oon~
tinned dry weather in part* of Texas, cauaed a buoyant tnaraflford
;
ket.
On Tuesday the failure of Liverpool to respond to oofadvance was attended by a decline, and a further yielding ot
values on Wednesday morning was followed by a quick and
full recovery on reports of a renewal <:t heavy rains in thr
sections above nimed. On Thursday the market was unsettled, without important change, but mide 8om» advanoe in
the later dealings, when the speculation was quite strong;.
To-day the market was variable and without important
change. Cotton on the spot met wi'h a moderated demand
for home consumption. There was a decline of 3-16o, on S.iturday last. To-day there was a fair business for home ooa£umption on the basis of 10c. for mid<lling uplands.
The total sales for forward delivery for the week are 555,900
hales.
For (m.-nediate delivery the total sales foot up this we«k
10,350 bales, including 0,317 for export, i,U\'i for consumptiob,
for apocuiation and
in transit.
Of the above,
bale*
were to arrive, Tho following are the official quotations for
each day of the past week.

Belton, reaia.*.— There have been slight showers on two

thirteen hundredths of an inch. Soaicing rains are atnolutely
necessary, and prospects for an average crop will be gloomy
unless they come soon, and there be an unusually late fall to
give the Ust-formed bolls a chance to open before frost. The
outlook on the whole is bad. The thermometer has ranged

The wheat market has been dull and weak since our last.
Cable advices were discouragicg, and the buying interest
showed no strength, notwithstanding the very low figures to
which prices had declined. The chief event of the week is
the termination of the great wheat deal at Sin Francisco, by
which prices there were maintained far above the parity of
other markets, A telegram published this morning indicates
that the aSair will be settled without serious financial complications. To-day the market was again lower, with more
doing at the decline. No. 3 red winter being freely taken for
export at 79J^@&0c.

1887.
There was an undercurrent of activity in the jobbing
branches of the trade the past week, a good many retailers
from Texas and other remote sections of the country having
appeared in the market, while very fair orders for fall goods
were received by leading jobbers through the medium of
their traveling salesmen.
At firat hands the demand by
buyers on the spot was only moderate, but a good many
re-ordera from interior markets were reported by the cotton
goods commission houses, and there was a somewhat freer
inquiry for men's-wear woolens and imported fabrics by
wholesale buyers. Accounts from distiibuting points in the
West and South are generally favorable the fall trade hiving
already opened under very encouraging auspices and dealers
in the Middle and Ei£tern States anticipate a satisfactory
autumn business as soon as the weather becomes more
temperate, and there have been indications in this direction
the past few days. The movement on account of former
transactions was fairly active throughout the week, large
quantities of domestic cotton and woolen goods, and certain
foreign fabrics, having; been shipped in this connection by
manufacturers' agents and importers. The tone of the market
continues firm, and stocks of plain and patterned cotton goods
in particular are remarkably light in the hands of commission
merchants and at the mills.
Domestic Cotton Goods.—The exports of cotton goods
from this pore for the week ending Aug. 2 were 6,307 packages, valued at |373,787. These shipments include 3,146 to
China, 1,829 to South America, 401 to Mexico, 835 to the
East Indie8,203 to the "West Indies, 183 to Europe, 175 to
Since
Central America and 35 to all other countries.
the 1st of January ths exports aggregate 119,671 packages,
valued at |7,073,777. Of this total China has had 63,226
packages, valued at |2,993,593 and 23,766 packages, valued

period of 1886 the exports to all ports reiched 138,548 pickages and in 1885 were 110,858 packages. There was a good,
steady movement in plain and colored cottons, cotton flinnels, etc., on account of back orders, and new business was of
Stocks of
fair proportions, though by no means active.
manufactured cottons are exceptionally small, and prices
remain firm all along the line, print cloths alone having
weakened slightly towards the end of the week, Ptint cloths
Domestic Woolen Goods.— The situation
in the
market
for
men'd-wear woolens has not essentially changed.
Light
weight cheviots and worsteds have met with more attention
from
and cheviot suitings werj fairly active in some
low and not very remunerative to
manufacturers.
For heavy clothing woolens there wa« a
moderate re-order demand by the wholesale clothing trade,
and siles, coupled with deliveries on ac.ount of bick orders,
reached a fair aggregate amount. Cloaking.-i other than a few
specialties were in light demand, and there wa? a fair bunineai
in Jersey cloths and stockinets at firm prices. Satinets, Kentucky jeans and doeskins were distributed in fair quintitiep,
and values are st'iady and un^hinged. All-wool and worsted
dress goods were fairly active in movement and demind. and
leading fall makes are well sold up and therefore firm. Flannels and blankets were in moierate reqaest, and there wai a
fair business in carpets, shawls, skirts, wool hosiery, heavy
shirts and drawers and fancy knit woolens.
Foreign Dry Goods.— There was a steady movement in
some descriptions of foreign goods in execution of back
orders, and new business was rather more active, in spite of
somewhat unfavorable weather conditions in the fora part of
the week. D.-ess gools, silks, velvets and plush»s ware more
sought after by jobbers and retailers, and there was a satisMen's-wear woratels and lightfactory trade in ribbons.
weight cheviots were in pretty good demand for future declothiers,
quarters, but prices are
livery, but prices of the latter are slightly in buyers' favor,
because of the keen competition of domestic cheviots. Linen
goods, laces, embroideries and white goods were taken in relatively small parcels to a fair aggregate amount, and there
was a fair business in B'itiah, Garm*n and French hosiery
and fabric gloves. Staple imported fabrics are generally firm
in price in this market, and values are steadily maintained at
the sources of supply abroad,

The importations of dry goods at this port for the week
ending Aug. 4, 1887, and since Jan. 1, and the sanse facta for
the corresponding periods are as follows:
