SdU, money is very cheap in London, ruling for discount
in the open market at 2 per cent, or 1 per cent below the
Bank rate, and on call as low as 1@1^ per cent.
This
condition of course favors the movement of gold this
way, but if such a movement should set in to any amount,
it would quickly change, for although the Bank of
England is in a strong condition, the London money
market is very sensitive to a gold efflux.

Government bonds have been very strong
this week,
chiefly for the 4 and 4 J per cents, the movement being
stimulated to some extent by the demand usual at this
season and by the suggestions of the Comptroller of the
Currency with regard to national bank circulation.
The Bank of England return for the week shows a
gain of £38,500 bullion. The cable reported withdrawals
of £196,000 on balance, therefore £234,500 probably came
from the interior.
The Bank of France exhibits a gain of
2,200,000 francs gold and a loss of 925,000 francs
silver, and the Bank of Germany since the last return has
gained 12,400,000 marks. The following indicates the

complete review of the changes in the
banks during the year as well as discussing the questions
which the course of
events is forcing into so great
prominence, affecting as they do the very life of our
national banking system.
Some of these matters we may
refer to another week, when we shall, as usual, publish
the whole document, together with Secretary Folger’s
report. Our present purpose is simply to notice the cur¬
rency changes which have taken place, and which Mr.
Knox’s figures and Mr. Burchard’s mint report enable us
to bring down to the first of November.
In looking over these documents, however, we are
greatly disappointed to find that with regard to the fact—
so important in itself and so essential for statistical
pur¬
poses—as to the stock of the precious metals now in the
country, we have no official figures which are of
undoubted accuracy.
Hitherto it has been supposed that
the Director of the Mint was the authority on that point.
Certainly if he is not, the usefulness of that Bureau
is at an end.
It publishes two large reports in a year
showing no little industry, and entering with great detail
into the subject,, and yet Mr. Knox, who has always
been very careful in his computations, repudiates Mr.
Burchard’s results, and gives us others of his own, which
enter into all his currency statements.
Thus wo have
the heads of two Bureaus in the Treasury Department
making reports to their chief on this important point,
which tell a very different story.
Mr. Knox informs us
that there was in the country on Nov. 1, 1883, a total
gold coin and bullion of $531,970,254, while Mr. Burchard
brings the amount up to $G0G, 190,515 October 1. If we
add to this latter statement the October net imports, the
a
very
difference between these authorities is about 27 million
dollars.
To determine which result is the
nearly correct,
we have gone back to January 1,
1879, at which date the
two authorities appear to agree.
Accepting those figures,
therefore, as facts, we have prepared the following, giving
the net foreign movement, production, consumption and
stock each year

$33,009,003 (alter allowing for specimens of ore

entine’s statement, which is even smaller.
Furthermore,
for the later years the Mint totals are also
considerably in
excess of Mr. Valentine’s
figures, and in view of the over¬
statements disclosed, will
hardly command full acceptance.
Altogether it seems probable, therefore, that the stock of
gold coin and bullion in the country Nov. 1st, 1883, was
not to exceed $505,000,000, and most
likely less.
If we accept that figure, however, aud use
for the other
items the returns Mr. Knox gives, the total
currency in
the country on Nov. 1st would be substantially as follows.
Of course the outstanding gold and silver certificates are
omitted, as they are only representatives of the coin and
bullion on which they are issued.

Of course, the greater part of this increase
occurs on the main stem, for the whole network of tribu¬
tary lines pours its traffic over that division, but not an
insignificant portion also was made directly on these
auxiliary lines, and particularly on those of most recent
acquisition and whose value was most called in question.
For instance, the Pittsburg & Connellsville branch, running

years, and it is really surprising to note that
in the past year, when there were many circumstances
that operated apparently to diminish the demand for coal,
the tonnage transported over the company’s lines has not
only been maintained at the large figure of the previous
year, but slightly improved upon.
On the Pittsburg &
Connellsville Division there is a falling off, but it is only
nominal in amount, though no doubt it had some influence
in diminishing the earnings on that division alluded to
above.
On the other divisions, but particularly on the
main stem, there is actually a small increase in the
tonnage of coal carried (bituminous coal), and that
certainly must be accepted as a very satisfactory feature
in the year’s business.

this falling off to the fact that the
crops in the Ohio Valley, whose products chiefly find their way to the seaboard
over the
Baltimore & Ohio, were not as good as in some
of the
preceding years, but that seems hardly sufficient to
account for any
very great amount of the decrease, so it
would
seem
that
notwithstanding the advantages which the
Baltimore & Ohio is supposed to have in the matter of dis¬
tance, time, and freight rates, other causes prevent the
road from getting its former amount of this kind of traffic.
It would also seem to show that the
present differential
rate allowed the road is not
having as much of an adverse
effect upon the ports discriminated against, as
many sup¬
pose, though of course the Baltimore & Ohio is not the
only road carrying to Baltimore. In live stock, too, there
is an increase in
tonnage as compared with last year, but a
decrease as compared with the years preceding, and no
doubt to a great extent the same influences are
responsi¬
ble for this as for the falling off in grain traffic.
The report before us is, as usual, merely the President’s
remarks upon the business of the year, and is unaccom¬
panied by either income account or balance sheet, so we
cannot give the particulars of the
year’s fiscal results, but we
are told that the
profit and loss account shows an increase

only this was done with great care and considera¬
tion, so that in every case the results have fully justified
the steps taken.
In a word, the company has been
conservative, yet progressive—progressive in acquiring
such necessary adjuncts as the Central Ohio
Division, the
Chicago extension, the Pittsburg & Connellsville line,
and in securing a foothold in the Marietta & Cincinnati
and the Ohio & Mississippi—and conservative in
exercising
great caution in selecting the proper lines in each instance
and carefully developing those and not
adding duplicate
and triplicate lines in the same
territory, as was done in

here, because it is in pursuance
policy that the company is now building a
between Philadelphia and Baltimore, and
recently negotiated a $12,000,000 sterling loan to provide
the means for that purpose.
At present it has to rely
upon the Pennsylvania road for a Philadelphia and New
York connection, and the effect upon its business is not
satisfactory. The 12 million bonds, bearing 4£ per cent
interest, will call for an annual charge of $540,000, which
it is reasonable to suppose the new line,
connecting impor¬
tant centres, will be able to take care of
; but in any event,
such a connection will greatly improve the
position of the
Baltimore & Ohio system.
The acquisition, during the
year, of the Pittsburg Southern should also have the
same
tendency. This was a small narrow guage road
running from Washington, Pa., to Pittsburg, and, having
been widened to standard width, now
supplies the
Baltimore & Ohio with a link connecting
its Wheeling
Pittsburg & Baltimore (from Wheeling to Washington,
Pa.) and Central Ohio divisions with Pittsburg. Previously
the company had had no Western entrance into
Pittsburg.
Now it gets a pretty fair line to that
city from both Lake
Michigan and Lake Erie and can consequently add
materially to its traffic over those divisions. Mr. Garrett
tells us that not only will the company be able to
carry
coal and the manufactured products of
Pittsburg west,
but will also be able to carry grain and
provisions east
from Chicago, and iron ore from
Sandusky in the same
direction.
It would seem, therefore, that with the
Baltimore & Ohio the future, as well as the
retrospect^
affords a pleasing outlook to the stockholder.

The Bank authorities have, however, decided to remain at 3
per
difficulties which then
£9,848,947 in 1882. The demand for loans, or discounts, or for
both, continues very limited, the falling off at the Bank this
week being £250,852.
The total of “other securities” is now
only £19,571,301, against £22,531,912 last year, being a fall¬
ing off of £3,000,000.
There has been very little demand for money either at the
Bank of England or in the open market during the past week.
The Stock Exchange settlement had very little perceptible
effect, and the rate of interest for short loans is only 1 to l^j
per cent.
Choice bills maturing this year are discounted at 2
per cent, and three months’ bank bills at 2% to 2% per cent.
The supply of money seeking employment is very considerable.

allowed by the discount houses to-day and same day of the

The
leading subject of discussion. Like many similar incidents,
they have relapsed into the background, as far as the general
public are concerned, and hopes are still entertained that more
room will be opened up for legitimate
trading. The falling off
in the value of the wheat imported is also very
considerable,
the total for the past month being estimated at £584,408 from
Atlantic ports, against £1,438,255 last year, and £1S1,680 from
Pacific ports, against £025,622 last year, making a total of
£760,148, against £2,063,877 in 1882, being a decrease of
£1,297,729. The falling off is considerable, but, on the other
hand, our exports to the United States have also declined,
though less seriously for the mouth than for the ten months.
The shipments of cotton piece goods are much less, the reduc¬
tion in them for the ten months being nearly 12,000,000 yards
compared with 1882. Of linen piece goods, though there is a
slight increase for the month, there is a falling off of as much
as 15,000,000
yards for the ten months; but, under the head of
jute manufactures, the improvement is considerable.- The ex¬
ports of jute piece goods to America in the month were about
800,009 yards more than in 1882, the increase for the year being
25,500,000 yards. With the exception of a fairly substantial
increase in the exports of wool, both British and Colonial, and
of woolen goods, the other features in the export trade to
America are disappointing. It is, however, quite possible, now
that the navigation of the Baltic is closing for the season, that
America will find a better market in Europe for her breadstuffs,
though the trade iu this country is still heavily weighted with
the Russian and Indian produce which has been imported so
freely during the last two months.
On balance, during the week embraced in the Bank return,
the Bank of England lost, according to its daily returns, a sum
of £126,000. The weekly statement shows the small increase of
£2,943, and it follows, therefore that gold coin is returning
from Scotland in moderate quantities. The supply of gold now
held by the Bank amounts to £22,083,1S6, comparing with
£20,307,957 last year. The total reserve is £12,368,211, against
cent, the state of the Bank’s account is still satisfactory, and

situation' remain much the same as a week ago. There is
still the same unsatisfactory condition in the iron trade, with
development of some: failures as a natural

indicate anything more unfavorable in the general state of the
trade. On the contrary, there is a prospect of improvement
in the fact that a number of our great railroad corporations

due to causes special to itself, and does not indicate anygeneral imsoundness of trade or credit. The weekly repuWs of
earnings of the railroads continue in almost every instance to
show a large increase over the corresponding weeks of last
year, thus showing that the general volume of traffic through¬
out the country is larger than at the same time in 1882,
though it is nevertheless true that it is being done by
merchants for a smaller profit than ever before.

especially the case
at Chicago, where the recent speculative advance of about
6 cents per bushel on corn, 4 cents on wheat and $2 per barrel
on pork, has
checked shipping orders and caused an in¬
creased accumulation of those products, which requires
increased bank accommodation.
The total stock of grain
in store in Chicago now is 12,173,000 bushels, and one
effect of this accumulation of products and consequent
demand for money at Chicago in the last week has been to
make New York exchange at a discount, whereas for
several weeks previously it had been at a premium.
The most noticeable feature in the financial markets is the
continued hardening of the prices of railroad bonds, and
there is no doubt that this results from a steady absorption of
the best class of bonds for investment.

Railroad Bonds.—The remarks made
a
week
ago to the effect that the steady hardening of prices for
railroad bonds indicated a decided movement of capital for
investment in that class of securities, has received additional
confirmation during the past week by the general advance in
prices of the better class of bonds, ranging from % to 3 per
cent.
There, have been some exceptions to the general rule,
and a few have declined, viz.: New York West Shore &
Buffalos 5s, Wabash general mortgage 6s, Denver & Rio
Grande consols, Virginia Midland incomes and Atlantic &
Pacific incomes ; but aside from these all others are higher,
the principal changes for the week being as follows, viz.:
N. Y. Lake Erie & Western seconds advanced 1 per cent to
97% ; Morris & Essex first consols, 1% to 127%; Oregon
Railway & Navigation firsts, % to 109"; Northern Pacific
firsts, 1 per cent to 106@105% ; Midland of New Jersey firsts,
3% to 94%: Metropolitan Elevated firsts, 1 to 103; Gulf
Colorado & Santa Fe firsts, % to 115% ; North Missouri firsts,
2 to 122 ; New York Susquehanna & Western firsts, 3 to 84%;
New York West Shore & Buffalo 5s declined from 75% to
73%, and recovered to 75; Wabash general mortgage 6s
declined from 76 to 73% and recovered to 74% ; Denver & Rio
Grande consols declined 2 per cent to 89 ; Virginia Midland
incomes, 4% to 65% ; and Atlantic & Pacific incomes, 1%
to 23%.
State bonds were more active and stronger. Virginia 6s
deferred advanced % to 10%, Tennessee compromise % to
44, and North Carolina 4s % to 80.
mally low. Call loans on stock collaterals have scarcely
changed from 2 per cent during the week. Rates for time
loans on similar collaterals have ranged from 4 to 5 per cent.
Rates of discount for acceptable double-name mercantile
paper have remained at 5 to 5% per cent, and for the best
single-names 6 and 6%.
The last weekly statement of averages by the New York
banks presented the rather noticeable feature of an increase
of legal tenders and specie to nearly three times the amount
of the increase of deposits.
The increase of $1,018,400 of
loans also reflected the disposition on the part of the banks
to make some use of their idle funds; nevertheless the surplus
reserve showed an increase of $1,610,725, to $5,283,700 as com¬
pared with a deficiency of $2,071,200 last year.

The aggregate earnings, working expenses and net results of
the Main Stem, including the Winchester & Potomac, Winches¬
New York & New England Railroad.
(For the year ending Sept. 30, 1883).
The report of the President, Mr. J. H Wilson, has been sub¬
mitted. It shows a larger deficit for the year than had been
expected, amounting to $613,605; the net earnings were $405,-
128, against $825,259 the previous year.
Details in
explanation of the year’s operations, and also the
by the New York Lake Erie &
Western Company will be found at length in the abstract of
the report which is given below.
The stockholders’ meeting
will be held Dec. 12th in Boston.
From the report of President
Wilson the following is condensed :
proposed
terms of a base made
“
The gross earnings of the company from all sources in excess of the
earnings of the previous yearuire $246,435, an increase of 7‘41 percent.
This increase was almost wholly in freight earnings, the
passenger
earnings falling oil* $29,689 on account of the sale of a portion of the
Woonsocket division, and $22,464 from the withdrawal of through pas¬
senger trains to Philadelphia, on account of repairs to the steamer
Maryland, for several months of the year. It will be remembered that
a freight blockade occurred on
our Eastern division last year from
August to the middle of December, resulting in delays and derange¬
of train
ment
service.
This, and the diveisioji of business
caused
thereby, reduced materially the earnings of the road, both in passenger
and freight departments, and was the sole cause of all the troubles
through which the road basgonesir.ee August, 1882. The earnings, as
given above, do not include anything for the cost of transportation of
materials for double track. If a charge had been made for this work,
the earnings of the road would have been increased by $12.151. The
foreign tonnage of the road ineieased 60-69 per cent while the local
per cent. As the local earnings per ton
per mile are always greatly in excess of the earnings on through busi¬
ness per ton per mile, the average rate per ton
per mile was reduced
from D772 per ton per mile to 138 per ton per mile, although the aver¬
age rate per ton per mile on through business was increased 4T8 per
todnage decreased 9-1 Otli of 1

1832,103,668,653; and in 1883, 153,213,910. it wil: be seen that over
four times as many tons were carried in 18S3 as in 1879.
The net earn¬

August to $137,55)5). in Septemlter to $115 044, in October (estimated)
$110,000, and it is believed that for the months of November and
December they will reach $150,000, or a total of $576,722 for the halfyear
ending December 31,

gage bonds duo in January and February.” * * *
“The expenses of the company have increased $654,000, or 27’72 per
cent, caused principally by the increased amount of business done, and
also by the fact that the repairs of cars and engines had not been
properly kept up in previous years, owing to deficiency of shops and
shop-machinery, and to the further fact that the engines and ears could
not be spared from the road and were overworked.
It is estimated
by the General Manager that there has been an increase of $280,000 in
operating expenses, due to extraordinary repairs. Ac.
Taxes paid
amounted to the unusual sum of $119,908, and $-8,982 is still claimed
by the State of Connecticur.
“There was expended for permanent improvements during the year
$1,498,906, the principal items being those given below: Extension of
double track, $744,241 ; new sidings, $273,048 ; equipment, $170,704;
new buildings and additions, $99,819; improvements at South Boston,

“During the past season the

queston whether we could bring coal successfully to the New York mar¬
ket by steam canal boats has been answered in the attirmative. Our
coal has been brought here and sold to the European steamship compa¬
nies, who have tried it, and demonstrated that it equals the best steam
coal in the market. The board of directors have therefore concluded to
purchase a fleet of 17 steam canal boats, with an equal number of ordi¬
nary canal boats to be towed by the steamers as consorts. We have
constructed in our own yards in Buffalo two slips for canal boats, with
eight feet of water, in which six canal boats can be handled at the same
time, with shutes for loading the coal directly into them from our cars.”
It was intended originally to use the terminal facilities of the Dela¬
ware Lackawanna & Western Railroad in Buffalo, but the I>. L. & W.
having withdrawn from the arrangement, a temporary agreement was
made with the New York Central & Hudson River Railroad Company,
and in the meantime the Rochester & Pittsburg have purchased the
capital stock and franchises of the East Buffalo Terminal Railroad Com¬
pany.
The hoard of directors have decided that it is to the best interests of
the company that a second mortgage he issued sufficient in amount to
enable the company to purchase additional rolling stock, make the im¬
provements mentioned above on the road, and make provision to extend
the East Buffalo Terminal Railroad when found advisable. The board
of directors have therefore authorized the issue of $4,000,000 of second
mortgage bonds, to be secured as follows: By a first lien upon the
$4,000,000*of capital stock of The Rochester & Pittsburg Coal and Iron
Company. By a first lien upon $700,000 worth of additional rolling
stock to be purchased. By a first lien upon the capital stock and prop¬
erty of the East Buffalo Terminal Railroad Company. By a first lien
upon the steam canal boats and consorts to be purchased from the pro¬
ceeds of this issue of second mortgage bonds. And by mortgage lien on
all the railroads of the company subject only to the prior mortgages.
Of these bonds $1,200,000 shall be reserved by the Union Trust
Company (trustee under the mortgage), not to he issued except to
extend the East Buffalo Terminal Railroad into the City of Buffalo, or
for the purchase of additional rolling stock. $800,000 of the second
mortgage bonds are reserved to take up and cancel the $600,000 of
second mortgage bonds now outstanding against the company.
In case a sufficient number of new second mortgage bonds are not
subscribed for to enable the company to payoff the existing second
mortgage bonds, then the holders of them have consented to make a
loan to the company of the amount of their bonds, and accept as col¬
lateral security to the company’s note these new second mortgage
bonds. This will enable tin*, company to cancel of record the existing
second mortgage of $600,000, and make the new bonds a second lieu
upon the property of the company.
“After providing for the two items above stated, there will remain in
the treasury of the i ompany $2,000,000 of these second mortgage
bonds, which the board of directors have authorized to be offered to
the stockholders of ivcoid on the 1st day of December, 188:1, at 75 per

will have to be reduced iu some such proportion we have no
doubt, for want of the cotton to supply it. Bur we think that in¬
stead of contending that we only require 6,100,0( 0 bales, because
consumption will be reduced and stocks will be used up, it would
be a more correct way of putting it, that, as we cannot have
more than 6,100,000 or some smaller figure, such inducements
will have to be offered as to tempt all holders to part with their
suplus stocks and spinners to economize their consumption.”
Of course whatever force the above argument has lies in the
correctness of the premises upon which it is baJed.
Liability under Bill of Lading.—With reference to the
case laid before our readers last week, under the above head¬
ing, we are glad for the sake of both parries interested that we
are now able to state that the claim made for non-delivery of

Prospects.—We intended two weeks since to publish

It is
late now to reproduce them, but we are led to do it to gratify a
friend who thinks we are not always ready to publish facts on
both sides of the question as to future prospects. There is, we
think, a misconception in our friend’s criticism, both as to wha
we do publish and as to our ability to crowd any more into our
columns. Still, without dwelling upon that point, we give

Con¬

Corn has been more active both for export and on specula¬
tion, especially within the last few days, owing to the rescind¬
ing of the French edict against American pork, and to an
active, excited and rising market in Chicago. Here prices have
advanced 2 to 2% cents during the week. The inferior quality
of much of the corn arriving both here and at Chicago has
conti ibuted not a little to the present strength of the market,
though a decrease of 314,662 bushels in the visible supply has
likewise had no slight influence. To-day the market was % to
l%c. higher than on Wednesday, and quite a good business
was done.

Flour.
127,100 for the
period in lSS2and 127,143 in 1881—a show¬
slow progress in the export trade. There
was a somewhat better demand for certain fabrics
by the manu¬
facturing trade, but jobbers and retailers continued to govern
their purchases by actual wants, and the volume of business
was consequently
light. Prices of plain and colored cottons are
nominally unchanged, but the tone of the market is easier, and
lower quotations will probably be made—on outside makes at
least—as soon as buyers show m >re disposition to take hold.
Print cloths were in moderate demand on the basis of
3l.{c. for
64x64 “spots” and “near futures,” and 3 1-I6c. for 56x60s.
Aside from shirting prints (in which some fair transactions
were reported), calicoes were
very quiet, and ginghams were in
light request, but considerable orders for chambraysand seer¬
suckers were placed for future delivery.
