The full details of clearings for the week covered by the
above statement will be given next Saturday. We cannot, of
course, furnish them to-day, bank clearings being made up by
the various clearing houses at noon on Saturday, and hence in
the above the last twenty-four hours of the week have to be
in all cases estimated, as we go to press Friday night.
Our usual detailed figures for the previous week, covering
the returns for the period ending with Saturday noon, Novem
ber 24, are given below, and we also present the results for the
corresponding week in 1893, 1892 and 1891. In comparison
with the preceding week there is a decrease in the aggregate
exchanges of about fifty millions of dollars, the gain at
New York being thirty-two and a-half millions.
Con
trasted with the week of 1893 the total for the whole country
shows an excess of 6f4 per cent. Compared with the week of
1892 the current returns exhibit a falling off of 12*9 per cent,
nd the loss from 1891 is 6*1 per cent. Outside of New York

TH E FIN AN CIA L
SITU ATIO N
Disappointment has been expressed because the ex
tremely successful termination of the Government loan
proposal has not had any appreciable effect on the Stock
Exchange market or on general business. What it
might do to encourage the developing industrial ac
tivity could in any event only be of slow growth. What
it might do to help the investment inquiry for stocks
and bonds is altogether another affair. That depart
ment discounts future prospects; but the promise of to
day has in it important elements of uncertainty. On
Monday Congress meets, and just now the general in
quiry is, what kind of work will Congress do? Will its
action help to build up or to destroy? It is reported
that the “ pop-gun” tariff bills at present in the Senate
are to be immediately pushed. Of one of them at least,
and that is the sugar bill, it would seem as if there
hardly could be two opinions.
To pass it would be to
take away the last hope of relief the Treasury
has in prospect, thus making bond proposals an abso
lute periodic event of the future and keeping currency
convertibility always a doubtful issue. Even to agi
tate its passage could not fail to be extremely disturb
ing.
On the other hand, Congress could easily pro
mote industrial revival if so disposed; there is no room
here to discuss that subject further than to say a most
important aid in that direction would be the speedy
preparation and passage of a law for a low-rate shortperiod bond, giving the President authority to use its
powers whenever he thought it needful.
While the principal event last week was the negotia
tion of the Government issue of 5 per cent bonds, this
week the settlements for the securities have been chiefly
prominent. We have written on these and other mat
ters connected with the subscriptions in two articles to
be found on subsequent pages. The fact that the bonds
carried 5 per cent interest has led to prompt payment
by the syndicate to whom the issue was awarded. Up
to last night (Friday) $47,771,517 had been paid on
that account in gold and its representatives into the
Sub-Treasury here in New York and about
$7,000,000 into the Sub-Treasuries at other points,
and it is thought that very little will be left
unpaid after to-day. The desire to make full payment
and save interest on the purchase money induced a few
of the syndicate subscribers to contract with banks
and other institutions, having the gold, to hold the
bonds as collateral and loan the gold. For this ser
vice 2 f p ercent per annum was charged and paid.
We heard of one instance in which a loan of this
description was for sixty days. It is reported that
others were made on c a ll; others were undoubtedly
made, but whether they were on call or sixty days we
do not know.
These settlements have had but little influence on
the money market, and yet there is a firmer tone and
it is quite possible that the market will rule for short
loans at least a fraction higher until after the first of
January. On Wednesday at the Stock Exchange there
was an effort to mark up the rate for call loans also,
and after renewals had been made 2 per cent was paid
for a small amount. But the news of this brought in
a flood of money from all sources and 1 per cent was
soon recorded; then came a reaction to I f per cent,
but by the close of the day money was actually unloanable at 1 per cent. Yesterday the rate at one time was
3 per cent, but only very small amounts were loaned at
that figure, and the close was at I f per cent. As yet
[VOL. L IX ,
there seems to be no urgency for time money. We
hear of a contract on Wednesday for six months at 3 per
cent.
Money on call, representing bankers' balances, loaned
freely until Wednesday at 1 per cent, and even lower,
at the Stock Exchange. On that day there was a little
flurry and higher rates, as related above. Thursday
was a holiday. Yesterday the rate ranged between 1
per cent and 3 per cent, with very little loaned at the
latter figure, and the closing rate being I f per cent.
The average for the week is only a trifle above
1 per cent. Banks and trust companies generally have
been unable to obtain any better figure, although on
Wednesday some small amounts were placed at I f per
cent. For time money, while there is a feeling that
rates ought to be higher and money in better demand,
the inquiry even for short dates is not urgent, and
there is an impression that when the bond adjustments
are over, as they probably will be this week, the supply
will be ample for all requirements. Quotations are at
I f @ 2 per cent for thirty days, 2 f @ 3 for sixty days to
four months, and 3 @ 3 f for five to six months on good
Stock Exchange collateral. For commercial paper there
is no change either in the tone or in rates. The supply
of first class is small and the demand continues good.
Some paper has sold at 3 per cent this week which
could not be disposed of at that figure last week, and
a sale of seven months single-name paper was re
ported on Wednesday at 3 per cent. Quotations are
2f@ 3 per cent for sixty to ninety-day endorsed bills
receivable, 3 @ 3 f for four months commission house
and prime four months single names, 3 f @ 4 for prime
six months and 4 f @ 7 for good four to six months single names.
One feature of the week has been a fall in the price
of silver in London to 28§ pence per ounce, due tosome phase of the Japanese-Chinese war, possibly to
the fact that it looks now as if purchases for war
material would soon be at an end. There is a report
that Russia will shortly issue a $100,000,000 3 per cent
loan. The Bank of England minimum rate of dis
count remains unchanged at 2 per cent. The cable
reports discounts of sixty to ninety day bank bills in
London 15-16@1 per cent. The open market rate at
Paris is 1$ per cent, at Berlin it is I f per cent and at
Frankfort I f per cent. According to our special cable
from London the Bank of England lost £62,252 bullion
during the week and held at the close of the week
£34,955,880. Our correspondent further advises us
that this was due to receipts from the interior of Great
Britain of £392,000 and to £454,000 sold in the open
market.
The market for foreign exchange was active and
excited early in the week, influenced by the bond nego
tiation, which it was at first expected would result in
the allotment of some of the bonds to subscribers for
European account, thus affording a substitute for ex
change. For about two hours after the opening on
Monday the market was almost in a state of semi-panic
induced by news of the large subscriptions to tho
bonds, and short bills sold as low as 4 8 6 f, while cables
were, disposed of at 4 87. When the announcement
was made that all the bonds had been awarded to the
Stewart-Drexel, Morgan syndicate it was seen that few or
none would go to Europe and the market for exchange
grew firmer; but it was not until Tuesday that it resumed
its normal condition. Then the demand for remittance
became good, there was a desire tore buy bills which had
been sold on the previous day and gradually an over-sold

the months of the current fiscal year the company had
presented very satisfactory exhibits of gross earnings at
a lime when other roads were reporting large losses, a
fact which, as we pointed out in these columns, was
due entirely to the inclusion of the earnings of the Mil

year and not in those for last year. For September the

TH E GOVERNMENT LOAN AND
M O N EY MARKET.
TH E
We are pleased to know that we were able to give
our readers last week in our Financial Situation the
results of the Government loan twenty-four hours
before they were announced from Washington.
Our statement at that time was that “ the sub
scriptions would aggregate at least three times the
amount of the proposal ” ; and that one syndi
cate had “ sent in a bid for the whole fifty mill
ion dollars or nothing.”
This forecast of the re
sults disclosed almost precisely the actual outcome.
The subscriptions did aggregate a little more than
three times the proposal ($154,370,900), and a syndicate
offer for the entire fifty million dollars was made con
ditioned “ for the whole $50,000,000, but not for
any lesser amount.”
We need not enlarge upon these
matters here, since on a subsequent page will be found
all the facts of interest we have been able to gather
respecting the subscriptions, the award, the payments
for the bonds, and the sales already effected by the
syndicate.
This highly satisfactory transaction has raised sev
eral interesting qinstion-*.
Perhaps none is more
[VOL, LIS.
important than the effect of the loan on our
money market.
The general opinion among bank
officers and note brokers appears to b8 that the settle
ments will produce no very material change in rates. The
little disturbance which has thus far occurred would
seem to confirm that belief.
One would think
that at least during the progress of the with
drawal of say about 48 million dollars from the
reserves of our banks (that is, assuming a total of
about 10 millions will be paid by transfers of cash
in other cities) there could not fail to be an obvious
derangement in money, and especially if, as in this
case, those withdrawals were all made in les3 than a
single week. Last Saturday our banks reported a surplus
reserve of $68,027,600. Granting some increase from
outside sources since then, and deducting the payments
for the bonds, their holdings to-day cannot aggregateover 18 to 23 million dollars. Of course the return
made public this noon, being simply an average, will
not show the full loss, but the actual condition must
be very nearly as we have stated it.
Under such circumstances if there is no decided
change in money it will be largely because of the con
ditions under which all business at this center is being
transacted at present.
No demand for time money
and a very scant supply of prime commercial paper has
been in substance our report for many weeks. This
lack of paper is because merchants not only here bub
everywhere are conducting their business on very con
servative lines and are borrowing only to cover
current needs and business requirements.
That
report is confirmed by our wholesale houses in
every department of trade and by all our banks
which have large interior connections.
As to the
small inquiry for time contracts the situation
of Stock Exchange business explains it.
Besides
that, the rates for loans for fixed periods have been
so low that large amounts of money have been put
oat on securities for long time, the effect of which is to
lighten the demand for time money now. These are
well-known facts, reported by us from week to week*
and encourage the idea that even a reduction in the
reserve of 48 million dollars will not serve to ma
terially disturb the money market.
Considerable influence, too, in decreasing the meed
and demand for money must be given to the low prices
of all products and the small crops, especially of breadstuffs, to be moved. This suggestion stimulates in
quiry, but we cannot pursue it except briefly and
roughly. As to prices, raw cotton strikingly, because
so clearly, illustrates this feature in the situation. The
quotation for middling upland cotton yesterday (F ri
day) at Liverpool was 3 5-32d., at the same date in
1893 it was 4 7-16d., and in 1892 it was 5^d.; in New
York the price of that grade yesterday was 5 13-16c.,
o n the corresponding day of 1893 it was 8 l-16e. and
in 1892 it was 9§c. Here we have a loss this year
in Liverpool of say about 2^ cents and in New
York of 2|c. compared with 1893 and of about 4
cents in Liverpool and 3 13-16-cents in New York com
pared with 1892. Suppose, for the purpose of this illus
tration, we roughly estimate that the current crop will'
weigh 4 thousand million pounds (the last four crops
averaged 3,985,183,858 pounds), and suppose also
we figure the decline in price this year compared
with 1893 at 2£ cents per pound, and compared with
1892 at 3 13-16 cents per pound— that would make the
aggregate loss in the value of the crop 90 million

Io2£ million dollars compared with an equal yield in
1892. Of eourse that is not an exact result, as the
total crops differ in number of pounds and as prices
may record a less or greater divergence at other dates
•of the years named; but the data are correct enough to
•convey a fair idea in a brief way of the smaller demand
there must be for credits (which credits may be several
times repeated on each bale of cotton before it reaches
the spinner and then repeated again in the cloth so far
as the raw material is spun at home) because of this
loss of say a quarter to a third of its value. Applying
now that principle to all crops and to all products and it
will not call for a long study of the results to impress
the mind with the restricted demand for accommoda
tion which the lessened body of values produces this
year.
Other than the foregoing, which relates to the demand
for credits, are the supplies of capital that have been so
abundant and so marked a feature since the panic. We
said above that the drawing out of the bank reserves at
this centre of about 48 million dollars in settlement for
the bonds purchased, reducing to that extent the
loanable funds, ought to and in ordinary times would
have so decided an effect on the supplies of money as
to raise materially the rates on loans. A counter fact
is that unless Government income increases rapidly or
disbursements decrease this money paid into the Treas
ury on these settlements now cannot be made to stay
in.
It will be remembered, according to our
showing of last week, that the Treasury operations
had netted an average deficit in Septemher and
October of 7 i million dollars, and up to November 20th
• 7 million dollars more.
of
As we write we have the
returns for the whole month of November lacking one
day, and the promise is that when the full figures are
made public they will indicate an income from 8-J to 9
million dollars short of the disbursements. If Decem
ber makes no better record, that month's loss, together
with the interest of 7 i million dollars due the first of
January, will return to the market within a little more
than five weeks from 15 to 17 million dollars of the cash
Which has just been withdrawn.
To be sure there is
always the hope of increased revenue, and as each
month passes it is the more likely to be realized and it
may come soon enough to modify in a measure these
figures. Indeed it ought not to be long before income
covers the outgoes ; but the Treasury Department gives
no assurance that such a condition is expected at
present.
There are still other methods in which our bank
reserves may be to an extent speedily replenished.
The bonds which have been purchased from the Gov
ernment are being sold quite rapidly. Of course where
these securities pass into the hands of the New York
public or of resident corporations the payments for
them will add nothing to the cash held by our Clearing
House institutions; but so far as they are more widely
distributed, and this is likely to be the case to a con
siderable extent, they will bring back the money which
has been put into the Treasury this week on the
settlements made. There is likewise at this season a
natural flow of currency to New York from the inter
ior.
How far that movement will be affected in
coming months by the lower interest many of the
hanks are paying on interior deposits— and all as we
understand are 4now paying on new business— is of
course uncertain. But interior banks borrowed largely
of the New York institutions (by rediscounts) months
ago, and our information this week is that these loans
945
are being paid up in some measure. To the extent that
is done a currency movement to this centre may follow.
We have brought together the foregoing suggestions
not as determining but as shedding light on the ques
tion of the future rates of interest. There are two
matters we have not mentioned. Of course any con
siderable export of gold in the present shape of bank
reserves might have a much greater influence on the
money market than the similar movement did have in
the earlier months of 1894. How that influence would
act might in turn depend in great measure upon the
course of business in Congress— that is, whether its
acts and discussions tend to increase or disturb the
growing confidence, of which we have just had such a
notable illustration in the marvelous success of the
Government’s loan proposal.
E R IE ’S BAD EXHIBIT\
The annual report of the New York Lake Brie &
Western Railroad issued this week can hardly be con
sidered an encouraging document. IJp to the end of
the previous fiscal year it had been supposed that the
company was suffering simply from a de'e it in its finan
cial machinery. The trouble appeared to be mainly
that there was no provision for meeting the company’s
capital requirements from year to year, and that this
had led to the piling up of a large and steadily aug
menting burden of floating debt, under which the com
pany was forced to the wall when the financial disturb
ances and panic came last year. The remedy, there
fore, seemed very simple. Remove the floating debt
and guard against a recurrence of such debt by supply
ing the company with adequate means to provide for
its capital wants— wants which are inseparable from
the conduct of large railroad properties in this country.
But the present report makes it evident that there are
other elements of weakness in the company’s affairs
which must be eradicated. And the unpleasant feature
about the matter is that though to the security holders
they come as a new development— that is, the holders
get knowledge of them for the first time through an
annual report—yet they reflect a situation which
evidently is not new but has existed in other recent
years, though it was not deemed necessary to call the
attention of the security holders to the same. In other
words weak points are now brought out very promi
nently of w*hich the security holders were previously
left in ignorance.
Great stress has been laid in the daily press upon
the fact that the company’s income account for the
twelve months ending September 30 shows a deficiency
of $1,167,407. No doubt to many persons this will
appear as the most strikingly unfavorable fact, and
be taken as reflecting a very poor earning capa
city.
We do not so regard it.
Standing by itself
such deficiency, though unwelcome, would not furnish
occasion for specially unfavorable views. The result
has been reached after allowing in full for interest on
all the company’s indebtedness, even the bonds in
default, and also after allowing for a loss in operating
the New York Pennsylvania & Ohio for the year of
$707,399, against a loss in the previous year of only
$197,106. The result has also been reached in a year of
extraordinarily unfavorable conditions.
We know
what very heavy losses other roads have sustained from
these causes, and it would be strange indeed if the
Erie should have proved an exception to the rule.
As a matter of fact the Erie, in having a large

operations of the company has ever been famished, but
as the stock formed part of the collateral securing the
collateral trust bonds, it was supposed that the prop
erty was a paying concern. Certainly the Erie re
ports never gave a hint to the contrary. Now the re
port tells us that in the calendar year 1893 (the latest
fiscal year of that company) the operation of the prop
erty netted a loss of $184,834, and furthermore that
the company has a floatiag debt of $850,000. From
the fact that in its balance sheet the Erie Company has
written off $534,115 of advances to that company, it
would appear that that property also has been netting a
loss for some years.
From the balance sheet, it appears likewise that $4,"
196,021 of doubtful assets and uncollectible advances
have now been stricken off. The memorandum is in
these words: ilThe amount of $4,196,020 73 heretofore
carried as doubtful assets, and advances to subsidiary
companies, has been charged to profit and loss.” Wha*1
the items charged off are is not stated, but at the
annual meeting it developed that the chief items ware
the $534,115 already mentioned to the Union Steam
boat Company, $1,720,125 of advances to the Erie
coal companies, $931,122 for third rail and $493,212
to Chicago & Atlantic. If the items are uncollectible
or were in any sense improper it is clearly right that
they should be marked off. But should not some of
them have been marked off long ago, and should
not those of more recent origin have been charged
against the years to which they appertain, each
year for its proper amount? The matter is im
portant, because if the company had deducted
from each year's revenue, as is now intimated
should be done, the loss in operating tbe Chicago &
Erie, the loss in operating the Union Steamboat Com
pany and the advances to the Erie coal companies and
other concerns to cover losses in operating or outlays
which the companies could not make themselves—if
all these deductions had been made in each year, it
might have changed the result very materially, and for
some of the years instead of a surplus above the inter,
est on the second consolidated bonds of the company
there might have been a deficit.
We observe that aside from the advances marked off
the company is carrying as a live asset on its books
$1,570,608 of advances to the New York Lake Erie &
Western Coal & Railroad Company and $134,589 of
advances to other companies, making $1,705,197 to
gether. These are presumably different from the ad
vances written off. But we also observe that even on
the receivers' books there are $1,344,264 of advances,
consisting of $616,093 to the Erie coal companies,
$501,900 to the Chicago & Erie, $52,337 to the N. Y .
L. E . & W. Coal & Railroad Company and $173,934
to other companies. The fact that the receivers have
made these advances shows that they were deemed
essential to the preservation of the Erie property, and
further that the advances cover losses or outlays for
which the companies were not able to provide them
selves. All but $22,273 of the $1,344,264 was ad
vanced during the last twelve months, and this makes
the question pertinent, how much of the amount is
fairly and properly to be considered a charge against
the Erie's revenues for 1894, still further increasing
the year's deficit.
As far as the floating debt is a guide to the com
pany's condition, the company is becoming more and
more involved with each succeeding year. The total
of the loans and bills payable was reduced during the
947
THE CHRONICLE
twelve months from $4,158,670 to $3,365,461, and in
that respect therefore an improvement has occurred.
But notwithstanding thi3 decrease in the loans payable,
the total of all current liabilities (including the bills
payable) has risen from $11,328,390 to $13,258,131, or
nearly the full amount of the interest which was de
faulted during the year and which is included in the
liabilities.
At the same time the avail ible current
assets have diminished from $4,566,663 to $3,614,730.
To show the steady increase in the current liabilities
we bring forward a table given by us last year and add,
the figures for 1894.
For the last two years we have
consolidated the accounts of the receivers and the com
pany. Materials and supplies are excluded from cur
rent assets in all the years, and no account is taken of
advances.

Since 1890, it will be seen, the net amount of the
current liabilities has risen from $1,512,568 to $9,643,401. During the last year the increase was from
$6,761,722 to $9,643,401, or $2,881,679. If we seek
to explain this increase of 2|- million dollars, we find
that the $1,167,407 deficit on the Erie, the $375,697
loss on the Chicago & Erie and the $184,834 loss on
the Union Steamboat Company will account for $1,727,938 of the total; the remainder of the amount is rep
resented by the advances to leased and subsidiary com
panies, which advances, a3 stated, do not count in the
current assess.
The report makes no reference to the reorganization
scheme put out last spring, but rumor has it that the
scheme is to be modified, and the rumor is apparently
well-founded. The facts disclosed by the report ob
viously make a change imperative. It would seem
that not only the Erie's own affairs need adjusting, but
that several of the auxiliary and allied properties must
be placed on a different basis. The lease of the New
York Pennsylvania & Ohio is particularly burden
some. The bondholders of this company a few weeks ago
voted on a proposition to modify the lease. One of the
modifications was said to be an mcrease in the mini
mum rental to $2,000,000. We find that the rental
paid in the late year was $1,899,093, and even on that
basis there was a loss to the Erie .of $707,399. With
the rental $2,000,000, the loss would be increased to
over $800,000. Surely if the Erie managers have given
their sanction to the arrangement, there must be some
qualifying fact connected with it changing very materi
ally its import. It is inconceivable that they would
assume larger burdens when the situation so impera
tively calls for diminished ones.

weak one from the start. In effect they asked that the vice.”
Concerning the rule attacked, the facts show that it
Court uphold them in their failure to abide by the
terms of their agreement. Ho Court in the land would was not established by the receivers, but by the com

ers or their predecessors in office wer6 appointed. The
question therefore was not whether a policy originated
by the receivers should be sanctioned, but whether the
receivers should be forbidden to continue in force a
regulation which they found in operation when they
assumed control of the business. Should the re
ceivers be ordered to retain members of the
Brotherhood in their service despite the com
pany s pre-existing rule to the contrary, and against
their unanimous judgment ? If such an order
ought to be made, says the Court, it must be because
the action to be restrained would injuriously affect the
interests the receivers have in charge, or would be con
trary to law or unjust to those immediately concerned.
But no case of injustice or oppression has been made
out, and there is absolutely nothing before the Court
which would warrant it in holding that the trust prop
erty is likely to be injuriously affected by the receivers*
enforcement of the rule complained of. That the
contemplated action is not unlawful is too plain
for argument, says the Court. “ That it contravenes
public policy is asserted; but how can this be estab
lished ? I know of no means of ascertaining the policy
of the public in relation to personal rights but by con
sulting the public laws.** It is true that in some States
laws exist making it a penal offense for an employer
to compel or coerce an employee to enter into an agree
ment not to join a labor organization as a condition of
such person*s continuance in such employees service.
But no such law is found upon the statute book
of Pennsylvania or of the United States, and
public policy if it could be assumed to be in favor of
such a method could not in the absence of law be en
forced by courts of justice. “ Policy may direct the
legislature in commanding what is right and prohibit
ing what is wrong, but the law alone determines for
the Court the rightful or wrongful nature of any con
duct which is submitted to judicial investigation.*'
There being thus no ground for enjoining the receivers,
the petition was dismissed.
RUSSIA’S IN FL U E N C E I N
AND TH E EAST.
EU RO PE
During the last two weeks our foreign news, if want
ing somewhat in novelty, has been characterized by
more than usual variety. Japan has moved on steadily
in her victorious career until now, by the capture of
Port Arthur, she has Pekin within her grasp and
China virtually at her mercy., . We have had alarming
stories from Armenia— stories that recall the Moham
medan atrocities in Bulgaria previous to the last RussoTurkish war, which aroused the ire and called forth
the fierce indignation of Mr. Gladstone, and which in
other times and other circumstances would most cer
tainly have set the Russian at the throat' of the Turk.
St. Petersburg has witnessed the funeral of one Em
peror and the marriage of another—a contrast which,
in so brief a space, has in the history of modern times,
been but rarely, if ever, presented.
These items are all of them important, and taken
in connection with related circumstances some of
them are of high significance and richly suggestive. It
is impossible to contemplate with indifference the sitution in the F ar East. W hat is to be the upshot we can
as yet but dimly conjecture. The power, energy, skill,
self possession -and-self reliance of Japan have come
upon ns like a revelation, and we have been compelled
to recognize a new factor in the affairs of the world.
MV
An entire reconstruction of Eastern Asia, with Japan
ranking as a first-class power, is, to say the least,
among the possibilities. As little can we b8 indifferent
to the trouble in Armenia. The Armenians are a
Christian people, hemmed in by hostile hordes of
Mohammedans ; and the Christian powers are more or
less pledged to their protection. By the treaty of
Berlin the Sultan is required to carry out reforms in
Armenia and to protect the inhabitants against the
Kurds and Circassians.
It does not appear that
the Sultan has fulfilled his obligations in this particu
lar. It is known that arms, denied to the Armenian
Christians, have been liberally supplied to the Kurds;
and if the one half of what is told of recent atrocities
is true, the Government at Constantinople will be called
to severe account.
Interest, however, centers at St.
Petersburg more than at any other point. A new
Czar, as a general rule, means new men at the Govern
ment machine and to a large extent also new measures.
What kind of a ruler Nicholas II. is to be is as yet un
certain. But the times and circumstances are favor
able to the development of his character; and we are
not likely to be allowed long to remain in ignorance of
his natural tendencies.
It is not too much to say that not one of the great
questions of the day can be fully understood unless
looked at and considered from the standpoint of St.
Petersburg. We do not mean that the Russian Gov
ernment in its individual capacity can shape things at
will; but it has the means almost more than any
other government of making combinations, and its
combinations could easily be made irresistible. We
have an illustration of this in the case of France. The
effect produced upon that country and its people by the
visit of the Russian fleet some two years ago has been
something marvelous. From the close of the war with
Germany there was timidity and a disposition to leave
well alone. But with the manifestation of the friend
ship of Russia a new life was communicated., Timidity
was abandoned. An aggressive spirit took its place.
France, it was felt, was no longer isolated— a lonely
unit in the heart of Europe. She was once more one
of the great Powers of the world. A t home and
abroad—in Europe, in Africa, in Asia—-this revived
spirit has been manifested. An alliance with Russia
would have a similar effect upon any country in
Europe. It is not the principles with which her Gov
ernment is identified that gives Russia her power— it is
her vast territory, her many millions of people, and her
enormous military strength.
Under her new ruler in what direction is this im
mense power to be directed ? That is the question
which is now paramount. It is more vital than any
other, because although a distinct and separate ques
tion in itself, it is so closely related to as almost to be
inseparable from all the great questions of the hour.
Happily, so far we have no reason to distrust the
young Czar.
His antecedents have not been such as
to give cause for doubt or fear.
His conduct during
the trying scenes of his father*s final illness were such
as became a young man of intelligence, good sense and
breeding.
Since his advent to power, the im
pression already produced upon the world at
large has been deepened and improved rather than
otherwise.
His manifesto on assuming power, al
though not to be regarded wholly as his own personal
production, we have a right to consider as breathing
his spirit; and his amnesty proclamation, which has
called forth the highest commendations, seems to have
950
THE CHRONICLE,
Toeen conceived in a spirit alike highly judicious and
eminently generous. It is his purpose, as he has more
than once avowed, to walk in the paths brightened by the
footsteps of his father ; and it is more than suggestive
that he has decided to retain in the Foreign Office—
and at the head of the Department— his father’s tried
and trusted adviser, M. de Giers. His remission of
taxes to the amount of 50,000,000 roubles can hardly
be regarded as a surprise; and the rumor that he in
tends to favor his people with Parliamentary govern
ment is in harmony with the spirit which
he has already evinced.
All this, it must be
admitted, is encouraging to those who hope to see
the power of the Russian throne exerted in the interests
of peace and for the general good.
It is impossible for such a power to be quiescent.
In peace or in war it puts forth an influence. That
influence can hardly be neutral. It must be for good
or for evil. That it may be for good there are certain
signs which encourage a hopeful feeling. It is no
longer a secret that the young Czar has in many ways
indicated a preference for English and German asso
ciates. His preference for the Prince of Wales at the
funeral of his father was noticed, and it has been
widely commented upon. It may have been a wholly
unpremeditated act on the part of the young Czar. It
may have been done for a purpose, his object being
to_ reveal a preference. Premeditated or unpremedi
tated, the act was highly significant. It is when
the heart is full the inner man most natur
ally reveals himself. At that supreme moment of sor
row the young man wished the Prince of Wales by his
side. There was certainly nothing in this to bar the
hope that under the new Czar the friendly relations
between England and Russia may become stronger.
Two such powers in friendly alliance, what could they
not do in the way of smoothing international difficul
ties. It has been for generations the foitune or mis
fortune of the two great powers to preserve towards
each other an attitude of open antagonism. If there
has not been open war there has been jealousy, almost
as expensive and injurious as open war. And yet there
is no good reason why
they should not live
together in unity.
With the exception of the
Dardanelles question, Russia has in Europe no
question which affects England ; and the Dardanelles
question is one which concerns all the other nations as
well as England. In Asia they have their separate
spheres. Collision is unnecessary. England has her
hands full with India and the related territory.
Russia has her hands full with the development of her
Siberian lands. They are the two European Powers
most interested in Asia— most interested in those
lands which are now the seat of war. It is unfortunate
that up to this date these two Powers have never been
able to see eye to eye, to understand each other, and
while pursuing their separate missions to leave each
other alone. Are we to see the end of this meaningless
jealousy ?
They have now an opportunity of working together
— an opportunity which perhaps never before presented
itself, and which may not readily present itself again. It
is evident that the war in the F ar East— between China
and Japan— is drawing near a close. How it may end,
and in what shape it may leave things, no one can tell.
But end as it may, it may safely be taken for granted
that Great Britain and Russia will have much to say—
most to say— in the final settlement. Russia wants a
harbor to connect with her great Trans-Siberian Rail
[YOU L1X,
road further south than Yladivostock.
This can
only be had on the Corean coast.
Great B rit
ain wants a harbor and coaling station on the
same territory— on the main land or on some of the
islands. Why can’t they agree to accommodate each
other ? An amicable arrangement come to by these
two Powers would facilitate a settlement of the diffi
culties between China and Japan. It would have a
powerful effect upon all the other nations as it would
show that jealousy and strife had ceased between the
greatest of the Continental governments. It would
go far to establish the peace of Europe on sure founda
tions. Russia and England on terms of friendship
and acting in friendly concert would not necessarily
imply hostility with the other Powers. On the con
trary, it would have a tendency to bring all the nations
into harmonious relationship, to pave the way for gen
eral disarmament and to introduce a new era of peace,
progress and prosperity.
TH E SUBSCRIPTIO NS 1 0 TH E N EW
GOVERNM ENT L OA N.
In another article we comment upon the success of
the sale of the $50,000,000 of United States 5 per cent
bonds offered by the Secretary of the Treasury under
the Department circular of November 13. Certain of
the facts in connection with the loan are interesting,
and they have not all been given by the daily press.
By the terms of the circular (it was published in the
Chronicle of November 17) the Secretary opened the
proposals at his office on Saturday last, November 24.
Altogether 297 bids were received for the bonds for an
aggregate amount of $154,370,900. There were two
bids for $50,000,000— the whole amount of the loan.
The one bid was at 116*889, the other at 117*077. As
both bids were put in by the Stewart-Drexel, Morgan
syndicate, it has been assumed that the subscribers
were the same in both cases. But that appears to be
an error. As we understand it, several of the members
of the syndicate at the lower price and whose subscrip
tions aggregated a considerable amount did not join in
the bid at the higher price, and other subscribers (some
entirely new) took their place. The bid of the last
syndicate proved successful, and the bonds were
awarded to them by Secretary Carlisle on Monday.
No statement has yet appeared showing the amount
of bonds taken by each member of the successful syndi
cate. We are able to supply the facts and give the
list herewith :

Calculations mads before the sale showed that to
yield 3 per cent to maturity the price would he 116*008,
to yield 2*90 per cent 116*889, to yield 2*878 per cent
117*077, and to yield 2*70 per cent 118*8676. The
sale was effected therefore on a basis of 2*878 per
cent per annum.
In
accepting the bid at
117*077 Secretary Carlisle stated that the proceeds
under this bid would b 3 i >,517 62 greater than the
aggregate of the other highest bids. He said further
more that “a very important advantage to the Govern
,
ment in accepting this bid is the fact that all the gold
will be furnished outside and none drawn from the
Treasury. It is also more convenient and less expen
sive to the Department to deal with one party rather
than with many.”
Twenty-five millions of the syndicate purchase is
intended for investment, the rest for sale. Part of
the bonds was offered at 119 on Monday, as soon
as word was received that the bid had been accepted by
the Secretary, Messrs. Drexel, Morgan & Co., Harvey
Pisk & Sons, Sind the First National Bank being desig
nated as the selling agents. On Wednesday it was an
nounced that over 15,000,000 had been taken, and that
further sales would be at 119$. Yesterday the state
ment came that about half the $25,000,000 had been
sold.
The syndicate has not a i _ _ I ___ I ^..................

but has paid up at once.
On Monday
gold in payment was turned in at the
in this city, on Tuesday $30,232,461 was turned in, on
Wednesday $3,406,027 and yesterday $3,859,029, mak
ing the total payments thus far in this city $47,771,517.
The payments at other points up to last night aggregated
about $7,000,000. Only $2,665,000 of bonds remained
to be paid for at the close of business yesterday, and it
is expected that substantially the whole transaction
will be completed the present week. As a matter of

COTTON CONSUMPTION AND OVERLAND
MO VEM ENT TO DECEM BER Z
t By a liberal use of the telegraph we are able to com
pile this evening our usual monthly statements of
overland movement, receipts, exports, etc., bringing
951
the figures down to the close of November and thus
covering the first quarter of the crop season. As
during October, the weather has been very favorable
for the rapid gathering and marketing of cotton, and
as a result an even greater amount has been brought
into sight than last month. Our statements show that
2,180,010 bales have come into sight through the
ports, interior towns and the rail movement overland,
whereas in October the total reached 2,101,227 bales.
Ia November 1893 the aggregate was 1,686,451 bales
and in 1892 was but 1,467,066 bales. For the three
months of 1894 the total is 4,935,428 bales, against
3,853,436 bales for the like period a year ago and
3,454,685 bales in 1892. Compared with 1891 there is
an increase of 154,411 bales. Spinners takings for
the month have been very heavy and for the season to
date they are considerably in excess of any year ex
cept 1891, over which year the gain is slight.
O VERLA N D
M O V E M E N T TO D E C E M B E R 1 .
The gross shipments overland have been greater
during the month than in the like period of any pre
vious year, reaching 425,286 bales, against 288,369
bales last year and 273,754 bales in 1892. The sea
son's total is now 283,781 bale3 more than that of a year
ago and 281,268 heavier than in 1892. Tne month's
net records a phenomenal increase over the preceding
year, having been 361,326 bales, whereas last year it
was 208,685 bales and in 1892 reached 213,211 bales.
For the three months the aggregate net is 600,733
bales, an excess over 1893 of 270,750 bales, and com
pared with two years ago the gain is 250,731 bales.
Presented in our usual form the results for the past
three seasons are as follows:

Receipts at the ports for the month, in common with
the overland, have been very heavy, reaching 1,600,005
bales, against 1,272,776 bales last year and 1,125,855
bales in 1892. The aggregate for the three months
is consequently 757,563 bales more than for the same
period in 1893 and 1,052,333 bales greater than two
years ago. The outward movement of cotton has-been
on a very liberal scale in November this year, the total
foreign shipments having been 1,154,511 bales, against
934,346 bales a year ago, and for the season to date the
aggregate exports have been 2,278,895 bales, or 471,327
bales more than for the corresponding period of 1893 .

THE CHRONICLE.
The India Council, as usual, offered for tender on Wednes
day 40 lakhs of rupees and sold the whole amount at about Is.
li^d. per rupee. Since then it has sold fairly good amounts by
private contract. Business is still exceedingly slack in India,
and there is little demand for money. But as rates are so
easy here, the exchange bankers think it advisable to increase
largely their balances in India. The silver market is weak,
and on Thursday the price fell to 28%d. per oz,, but recovered
slightly yesterday.
The foitnightly settlement on the Stock Exchange, which
ended cn Wednesday evening, was the largest for a consider
able time past. Most of the business, however, was in South
African gold and diamond shares and industrial securities. In
the American market for the time being scarcely anything is
doing. Mr. Little’s report upon the Atchison has made a
very bad impression, and the necessity for borrowing in gold
by the United States Government has likewise unfavorably
affected the market. That a loan was inevitable was generally
recognized, but people here are rather surprised that it has
been brought out eo soon before the meeting of Congress.
The general expectation is that there will be a fair amount of
applications here from bankers and insurance companies, bu.
that the loan will be placed mainly at home.
In the South American market also business is quiet.
There has been a[rise this week, it is true, in Brazilian securi
ties, as the installation of the new President on Thursday was
carried out without any kind of disturbance. But there is
little doing infeither Chilian or Argentine securities. Messrs.
Antony Gibbs & Sons have undertaken to carry on negotia
tions with the Argentine Government for a settlement of the
guaranties to the railway companies. Until this question is
arranged the credit of Argentina cannot improve much. In
the inter-bourse department business has been greatly checked
all through the wtek by the interruption of telegraphic com
munication with the Continent owing to a succession of
gales which have done much damage to shipping as well as to
the telegraph lines. On the Continent itself there is a good
deal of uncertainty respecting politics. From Lord Roseberrj’s
recent speeches it is inferred that better relations are being
established between this country and Russia than have.existed
for very many years. On the other hand, there is believed.to
be a coolness between this country and Germany. Upon the
Continent as well as here this coolness is mainly attributed
to the Emperor William. The German Government joined
France lately in opposition to Lord Rosebery’s Congo arrange
ment, and now Germany refuses to act with our Government
in China. In fact it is said that while all the other Powers
were willing to support mediation^between China and Japan,
Germany refused point blank, and so defeated our proposal.
These are but two instances of the attitude recently assumed
by Germany. One consequence is a very unpleasant feeling
in both Austria and Italy; another is perplexity in France.
Naturally, therefore, business is quieter in international se
curities upon the Continent.
But French and German capitalists are taking a much
larger interest in the South African market than they have
ever hitherto done. Great syndicates are being formed both
in Paris and Berlin, immense numbers of shares are being
bought, and much of the activity here in the South African
market is undoubtedly due to Continental buying. During the
past few weeks the South African department has assumed
unusual importance. Many members of the Stock Exchange
are leaving the other markets to operate in the South African
and it looks now as if we were to witness a very active specu
lation. There is also a good deal of activity in industrials.
Several trading concerns are beiDg converted into limited
companies and the shares are being bought by the public.
There are a good many issues, too, of brewery debentures and
there is active dealing there likewise. Just now all the
materials used in brewing are very cheap, and it is argued in
Consequence that the year will be exceptionally prosperous.
The breweries are doing as much business as ever before, and
the cheapness of materials ought to increase their profits
greatly. On the other hand, British railway stocks are rather
neglected, but British Government securities and Colonial
and Indian sterling securities are well supported. The fact is
that though the market has recovered from the recent politi
cal scare there is still a good deal of latent uneasiness. Firstly,
there is a fear that unless the war in the Far East is soon
ended complications will spring up, and secondly the oper
ations of France in Madagascar are disquieting. Our Govern-
L lX ,
[V o l.
ment is giving France a free hand, but the fact remains
nevertheless that Madagascar is on the line of communication
between the Cape of Good Hope and India. Investors, there
fore, are still timid, and many are confining their purchases to
the very best securities.

Metropolitan Traction—Second Avenue—Central Cross
town.—Assessments imposed on the Second Avenue Railroad
Company and the Central Crosstown Railway Company have
been entirely vacated by Judge Beach. Their statement
made to the commissioners of taxes and assessments showed
that their total assets were less than their debts added to the
assessed value of their real estate. The assessment of the
Metropolitan Traction Company has also been reduced from
$173,749 to $75,000.
These two decisions follow Court of Appeals rulings in the
Edison Company cases in 139 and 141 New York, which hold
that where the commissioners have before them officially no
information save that furnished by the corporation itself in
the circulars sent out by the board, they are bound by these
statements, and cannot make assessments unwarranted
thereby.
The statement of the Metropolitan Traction Company
showed the following:

The Money Market and Financial Situation.—The princi
ple events of the week in financial circles have not tended to
increase the volume of business at the Stock Exchange.
The usual effects of a close holiday are also apparent, and
both the investment and speculative movements have been
restricted.
The Government bond issue has proved a marked success in
every way, and probably about 53 million dollars of the pro
ceeds has been added to the Government gold reserve up to
this date.
The eagerness of our own capitalists to secure the bonds is
the best evidence of their popularity, and reflects public sentiment as to the wisdom of their issue. It is apparent that the
surplus reserve of the New York city banks will be materially
reduced by these settlements and the absorption of so much
hitherto idle capital ought to have some effect upon the
money market, but as yet it has been very limited.
One of the events of the week in railroad circles was the
announcement of the semi-annual dividend on North Western
(
Etock. This was made at 2 ^ per cent, instead of 3 per cent as
has been usual, which change was quite generally expected in
view of the late reports of decreased traffic.
While the net earnings of some of the more important rail
way systems are not as satisfactory as could be desired, many
of the less prominent roads report an increase in business
compared with that of last year, and some of the trunk lines
report a satisfactory west-bound freight traffic, which in part
makes up for the light grain movement eastward.
The open market rate for call loans during the week on
Stock and bond collaterals has ranged from 1 to 3 per cent.
To-day rates on call were 1@3 per cent. Prime commercial
paper is quoted at 2% to 3% per cent.
The Bank of England weekly statement on Thursday
showed a decrease in bullion of £62,252, and the percentage
of reserve to liabilities was 65-33, against 64-67 last week; the
discount rate remains unchanged at 2 per cent. The Bank of
France shows an increase of 17,525,000 francs in gold and
1,575,000 francs in silver.
Hie New York City Clearing-House banks in their statement
of November 24 showed an increase in the reserve held of $2,.
509,500 and a surplus over the required reserve of $66,027,600, against $62,974,050 the previous week.

Foreign Exchange.—The market for foreign bills opened
weak on Monday with quotations a fraction lower than last
week, but was firmer on Tuesday when it became known that
nearly the whole of the new bond issue would remain at
home. The market has since been dull but strong with an
upward tendency and only a limited amount of offerings.
To-day’s actual rates of exchange were as follows: Bankers’
Sixty days sterling 4 86^@ 4 86% ; demand, 4 87%@4 88 ;
cables, 4 88@4 88%.

State and Railroad Bonds, ,—Sales of State bonds reported'
at the Board include $195,000 Virginia 6s defd. trust receipts,
stamped, at 9 to 9%; $3,000 Tenn. settlement 3s at 81.
The railroad bond market has been dull and generally
featureless, with the interest well distributed. Atchison 4s
are down to 64% and class A to 19. Brooklyn Elevated lsts and.
Union Elevated lsts have recovered a portion of their recent
decline. Oregon Imp. con. 5s declined 2% points on Wednes
day on liberal sales. Southern By. 1st 5s have been active on
an advance, as it is reported that they will be listed on the
London Exchange, and close at 88. U. S. Cordage lsts
on light sales have declined with the stock, closing at 65%.
Wabash issues have been relatively active and steady.
Railroad and Miscellaneous Stocks.—The stock marked
has been dull even for a holiday week. The grangers have
been under bear influence, stimulated by the poor earnings of
St. Paul and a reduction in the NorthWest dividend, but the
natural effect of the latter was discounted last week and
the principal decline has been in St. Paul, which closes at 57%;
North West closes at 97%, Burl. & QuiDcy at 68% and Rock
Island at 60%. The coal stocks are higher on the report of a
harmonious meeting of ooal sales agents, their agreement to a
higher range of prices and a limitation of the out-put for De
cember ; D. L. & Western closes at 159%, D. & H. Canal at 125%,.
and Central of N. J . at 93. Phila. & Beading has declined,
possibly because of active opposition to the proposed plan of
reorganization, closing at 15% against 16% last week. N. Y. Li.
E. & Western stock, which closed at 13% last week, sold
down to 10% on Tuesday, and closes at 11% on the unfavor
able annual report of the company.
American Sugar was relatively dull and steady until
Wednesday, when the announcement of a general shutting,
down of refineries caused a selling pressure and decline of
three points. The stock closes at *3%, against 88 last week.
Cordage has continued to decline, the common selling below
8 on Wednesday, closing to-day at 8%, and the pfd. at 14%.
Distilling & C. F. has continued to move downward, closing at
8%. Chicago Gas has been notably weak and declined to 70..
Otner industrials have shared the general condition of the,
market and are inactive.

For the fiscal year ending June 30, 1894, the results were as
follows, tbe gross earnings contrasting with $3,916,901 in

(F o r the year ending Sept. 30,1894.)
General Results—The report contains statistics for the late
fiscal year but no introductory remarks. In the tables below
are given the comparative figures of earnings, expenses,
etc., for three years past. For the year 1893-94 it will be
observed there is a deficit after deducting charges paid and
accrued of $1,167,406, contrasting with a surplus the previous
year of $817,438. The deficit for 1894 does not include the
loss on the Chicago & Erie ($375,697) and the Union Steam
boat Co ($184,834 for calendar year 1893) but does include the
loss on the New York Pennsylvania & Ohio, this last for 1894
being $707,399, as against $197,106 in 1893.
Included in the charges for 1893-94 is the following interest
that was not paid : second consols $1,500,000 ; second consol,
funded coupon bonds $515,844; reorganization first lien bonds
$150,000; total $2,165,844. The new bonds provided for by
the reorganization plan do not figure in the year’s report, the
charges being stated on the old basis. In view of the falling
off in earnings it is understood that the reorganization plan
will be modified, none of the new bonds proposed by the plan
having been issued.
The amount of $4,196,021 heretofore carried in the balance
sheet as doubtful assets and advances to subsidiary companies
has been charged to profit and loss. Tin chief items written
off are said to have been the following: Erie Coal Companies,
$1,720,125; third rail, $931,122; Union Steamboat Company,
$534,115; Chicago & Atlantic, $493,212; Tonawanda Valley &
Cuba, $70,444. The item of $1,720,125 consisted of losses by
the coal com panics. The money had been advanced by Erie
and could not be recovered. The Chicago & Atlantic loss
antedated purchase of that road. The third rail item was said
to represent an outlay of the Jewett management at the time
of the broad gauge system.
Car and Engine Trusts.—During the past year the following
amounts were paid on tnese accounts, viz.:
$ 4 2 5 ,7 5 9
5 4 4 ,0 0 2
Of the car trusts of New York, old, there are certificates
owned by the company, and included in th e$3,334,565 above,
to be drawn and canceled by the trustees in common with
the outstanding certificates, $297,000 ; cash in hands of trus
tees, $2,435.

Baltimore & Ohio Southwestern Railway.
CReport fo r fiscal year ending June 30,1894 )
The report of President Edward R. Bacon contains the fol
lowing :
First Consolidated Mortgage.—The several classes of securi
ties authorized by the terms of consolidation have been cre
ated. Under the terms of the first consolidated mortgage it
is believed that ample capital can be secured for all the
company’s future requirements at a minimum rate of in
terest. The Baltimore & Ohio RR. Co. has executed the
mortgage, agreeing therein to guarantee the principal and
interest of the bonds secured thereby, and in consideration of
such agreement has received the securities to which it was
entitled therefor, and as owner of the entire common stock
controls the company. The restrictions relating to the issue
of bonds are carefully defined in the mortgage for the pro
tection and security of the holders.
There have been issued of the first consols the sum of $9,174,325, of which $6,291,325 were issued to retire the bonds of theOhio & Mississippi, Cincinnati & Bedford, New Albany & East
ern, a portion of the income bonds of the Baltimore & OhioSouthwestern RR. Co. and of the preferred shares of the Ohio
& Mississippi; and the sum of $2,883,000 for the payment of
the floating debt of the Ohio & Mississippi, the obligations of
the respective companies assumed upon the consolidation, and
for construction, improvements and equipment. The company
has sold $2,185,000 of its first mortgage bonds reserved in its
treasury, from par to 102J^, London terms. The proceeds have
been partially expended for the purposes previously stated.
It was contemplated when the consolidation plan was ap
proved that about $4,500,000 would be early required for im
provements and other purposes. It will not be necessary toissue all of these securities as early as was then expected, as
the improvements will be conservatively made, and only as
the conditions of business justify them.
Operations.—The period covered by this report has been
marked by unparalleled industrial and financial depression,
and by prolonged strikes in the coal and coke districts. These
circumstances have greatly depleted the earnings. The low
tariffs for freight which have also prevailed were another
depressing factor. The net earnings, although much less than
they would have been under more-favorable circumstances,
are still sufficient to pay the increased fixed charges and leave
a small surplus.
Had the railways been consolidated so that this company
could have had the gross earnings for the four months prior
to the consolidation, thus constituting a full fiscal year, it
would have earned over its fixed charges and taxes partial
interest on its “A” income bonds. This is called to attention
D ecem ber
THE CHRONICLE.

to emphasize the strength of the earning capacity of the prop
erty, even under adverse circumstances.
Improvements,—The Ohio division of the railway, which
was formerly the Baltimore & Ohio Southwestern RR., had
already been brought to a high standard of physical condition.
Similar substantial improvements are being judiciously male
upon the Mississippi Division, and in a short time the prop
erty will be in such physical condition as will permit its op
eration to be conducted at the minimum of cost.
Operations, Earnings, Charges and Balance Sheet.—The
results for eight months ending June 80 and the balance sheet

the 30th of last June. With two roads running during the last
six months of the last fiscal year the report shows an increase
in net earnings of $100,000 over the previous year. We feel very
much flattered by that showing. We are gradually getting
rid of our horse stock. We count the maintenance of a
horse at the rate of 50 cents a day, and when we have disposed
of the 2,000 horses still on hand we shall save just $1,000 a day.
Since the introduction of the trolleys our increase in revenue
ha3 averaged about $50,000 a month, and the figures for the
present month of November will show an increase of not less
than $75,000 over the corresponding month of a year ago.
Next month we look for even a much larger increase in busi
ness.
If I think that the earnings of the road for the existing year
will show all, if not more, than we really anticipated when
we began the construction of the electric lines. By the next
annual meeting of the stockholders we shall have all our trol
ley roads running, and then we shall have begun to get the
full benefit of the new system, and be able to show just
what we can do. In the light of the past, I do not think that
there is any property in the country that has a brighter pros
pect than this property. We feel that it will certainly give
to the stockholders all that has been promised by this man
agement.” (V. 58, p. 1078).

received President Widener made a brief statement to the
stockholders. He said :
“ It is p e rh a p s w e ll to state th a t th e b u lb o f o u r t r o lle y ro a d s

Baltimore & Ohio Southwestern.—The Farmers’ Loan
& Trust Company will pay on and after Dec. 1, 1894, inter
est of 1% per cent on the first preferred income bonds
and of 1 per cent on the second preferred income bonds
of the Baltimore & Ohio Southwestern Railroad Company,
these being the securities of the old company which, by the
consolidation, are replaced by securities of the Baltimore &
Ohio Southwestern Railway. Those who have deposited
their bonds under the consolidation can obtain their inte
by signing proper receipts for same. (V. 59, p. 919.)
rPS(.
Bay State Gas.—The Boston Herald publishes an interview
with a gentleman familiar with the affairs of this company,
in which it is stated : ‘ ‘ The Boston gas deal has been com
pleted, except the consolidation with the Brookline Company.
This will come in time.” * * * “ We have offered $30 per
share for the Brookline gas stock, but the holder wants more. I
think consolidation will be reached before the next Massa
chusetts Legislature adjourns. We can then sell $2,000,000
of real estate assets and reduce our fixed charges.” * * *
The present Bay State Gas companies can earn the next calen
dar year $800,000 net. Our new gas proce33 will save U3
more than $50,000 in o il; in fac^, we have figured that we can
save $100,000 in simple economies, and we expect to make up
about $70,000 loss due to the hard times.”
Brooklyn Gas Companies.—The gas companies in Brook
lyn have entered into an agreement to raise the price of gas
from 90 cents per 1,000 cubic feet to $1 25. The new rate goes
into effect to-day (Dec. 1). The reduction to 90 cents was

made several months ago, when there was a sharp competi
tion and the prospect of a protracted gas war. Gen. Jourdan, of the Fulton Municipal Co., says the companies have
found that they cannot supply gas at the reduced rate at a
profit.
Buffalo Rochester Sc P ittsb u rg . —In the report of Presi
dent Yates published in last week’s issue, in the closing para
graph on page 926, relating to the Rochester Sc Pittsburg Coal
& Iron Co., there was a typographical error which made the
deficit of the Coal & Iron Co. as per balance sheet of June 30,
1894, $ L
’71,471 instead of $17,471. The railroad company
owns the entire capital stock of the coal company, but its
operations have been kept distinct. The coal company June
30, 1893, had a total surplus of $15,519, but this, owing to the
coal miners’ strike was converted into the $17,471 deficit above
mentioned, as was fully explained in the report published
last week. (Y. 59, p. 925.)
Called Bonds.—The following bonds have been called for
payment. The numbers may be learned at the offices of the
respective companies.

Chicago & North Western.—At a meeting of the directors
held Nov. 27 the semi-annual dividend on the common stock,
payable Jan. 3,1895, was fixed at 2}^ p. c., a reduction of 3i>
p. c. After the meeting, Vice President Sykes said : “ The
earnings for November were partially estimated, but were
sufficient to assure the company that the dividends as de
clared to-day had been fully earned. The business in the
Northwest is known to all, and our company has suffered with
the rest. A conservative policy has dictated the reduction in
the dividend on the common stock. The last six months in
the year are our poorest months, and we hope that with the
revival of business in the spring our earnings will make a
better showing and enable us to increase the division among
our stockholders.” (V. 59, p. 290 )

Cincinnati Extension Bonds—Alabama Great Southern.— Cash and cash a s s e ts ............... ................................................................ $ 3 ,6 6 8 ,1 5 9 ’
The opinion of United States Circuit Judge Lurton in the case
of Toler and others vs. the East Tennessee Virginia & Georgia
Railway, the Central Trust Company of New York, and others,
was handed down November 26.
The case, which is a suit for foreclosure of the “Cincinnati
extension gold mortgage bonds” on the ground of a default in
interest to the amount of $450,000, was heard by Judge
Lurton at Cincinnati November 10, on two motions—one by
Henry A. Taylor, claiming to hold a majority of the bonds, to
be allowed to intervene and be made a defendant for the.
purpose of resisting foreclosure, the other by Toler and others
and the Central Trust Company for a decree of forelosure nisi.
The points decided are: First—That Henry A. Taylor’s peti
tion to become a defendant should be granted and his petition
should stand as an answer both to the original and cross bills.
Second—That the complainants and cross complainants are
entitled, under their respective bills, to a decree requiring
the mortgagor company to pay into the registry of the court
the interest in default, amounting to $450,000, within ninety
days, and that in default of the payment of said interest the
shares held by the Central Trust Company shall be sold in
block. Judge Lurton was of the opinion that inasmuch
as through the shares held in trust the Cincinnati Southern
Railway and the Alabama Great Southern Railway were both
controlled, the voting power of said shares constituted an
element of such value that the stock should be sold in a
block, thus preserving the voting power and the control of
the two railroads aforesaid.
The importance of this decision consists ia the fact that the
purchaser of the stocks ordered to be sold would thereby ob
tain the control of the English company, which holds and
owns the entire stock of the Alabama Great Southern Rail
way and the majority of the stock of the Cincinnati New
Orleans & Texas Pacific Railway.
The real parties in the litigation were the Cincinnati Ham
ilton & Dayton party, who are the real and substan
tial owners of the bonds represented by Henry A. Taylor,
while the minority of the bonds are owned and controlled in
the interest of the Southern Railwav Company. It will fol
low that if the Cincinnati Hamilton Sc Day too party shall be
the highest bidder at the sale of the stock so ordered sold,
their control of the line of road fr >m Cincinnati to New Or
leans will be secured. On the other hand, if the Southern
Railway Company shall become the purchaser of said stocks,
it will, through them, obtain the ¡entire domination of the
aforesaid line from Cincinnati to New Orleans. (V. 59, p.
879.)

Equitable Mortgage Co.—At the Rsal E itate Exchange,.
November 26th, the mortgages on Western and Southern
lands held by the Equitable Mortgage Company, which
went into the hands of receivers during the monetary panic
in September, 1893, were sold at auction. The securities, the
total face of which is $4,056.335 78, were bought in for
$2,328,900 by the Reorgauizition Committee, consisting of
Cnarles S. Fairchild, George Coppell and A . B. Hepburn. (V.

F ort Worth & Denver City.—The company makes Dec. 1
its third default on its first mortgage bonds. The gross earn
ings from Jan 1 to Nov. 23 have been $1,119,557, as against
$1,344,615 in same period last year. The latest net earnings re
ported cover the nine months ending Sept. 30 and were
$108,474 against $239,308 for corresponding period last year.
The road is reported to be in first rate condition and well
managed. The operating expanses include considerable ex
penditures for betterments. A good crop another season
would enable the bondholders’ committee to formulate a
plan which possibly would not require more than the funding
of some coupons. It is very much to be desired to avoid fore
closure and to preserve the company’s charter, so that the
c »mmittee will let matters remain, as they hope that earnings
early in the coming year will be more favorable. (V.53, p. 941,>

Keokuk & Hamilton Bridge.—The recent opinion of the
Supreme Court of the United States in favor of the bridge
company in its case against the Pittsburg Cincinnati & St.
Louis and Pennsylvania RR. companies is of general interest,
as it evinces the determination of the courts to uphold con
tracts. The case is a peculiar one, and it was natural that the
Pennsylvania RR. Co. having been evicted from possession of
the road leasing the bridge, should have considered itself ab
solved. from carrying out the bridge contract. The following
are the facts:

—Holders of the reorganization receipts for funded coupon
5 per cent bonds of 1885 may collect ths amount of the

organization receipts for suitable endorsement thereon, either
at the office of Messrs. Drexel, Morgan & Co., or at the office
of Messrs. J . S. Morgan & Co., London. (V. 59, p. 781).

T he V i s i b l e S u p p l y o f C o t t o n to-night, as made up by cable
and telegraph is as follows. The Continental stocks, as well as
those for Great Britain and the afloat are this week’s returns,
and consequently all the European figures are brought down
to Thursday evening. But to make the totals the complete
figures for to-night (Nov. 30), we add the item of exports from
■Sfoe United States, including in it the exports of Friday only.
’«
The imports into Continental ports the past week have
been 123,000 bales.
The above figures indicate an increase, in the cotton in sight
to-night of 43,411 bales as compared with the same date
of 1893, a decrease of 71,092 bales from the corresponding
date of 1892 and a decrease of 170,532 bales from 1891.
A T t h e I n t e r i o r T o w n s the movement—that is the receipts
for the week, and since September 1, the shipments for the
week and the stocks to-night, and the same items for the
corresponding period of 1893—is set out in detail below.

periods of the two previous years, are as follows:

A considerable portion of the Sea Island cotton shipped to
foreign ports goes via New York, and some small amounts via
Boston and Baltimore. Instead of including this cotton for
the week in which it leaves the Southern outports, we follow
the same plan as in our regular table of including it when
actually exported from New York, &c. The details of the
shipments of Sea Island cotton for the week will be found
under the head “ Shipping News,” on a subsequent page.
Quotations Nov. 30 at Savannah, for Floridas, common,
9c. ; medium fine, tl% c. ; choice, 14^c.
Charleston, Carolinas, medium fine, 17c. to 20c.; fine, 24c.;
extra fine, 28 to 35c.
J u t e B d t t s , B a g g i n g , &c.—The market for jute bagging
has been rather quiet the past week. Quotations for jobbing
lots are steady at 5%c. forl% lbs., 6^ c. for 2 lbs. and6%c. for
standard grades. Concessions would be made, however, on
round lots. Standard brands in car-load lots are quoted at
5J^c. for \% lbs., 6c. for 2 lbs. and 6^ c. for 2% lbs., f. o. b.
at New York. Jute butts are featureless at l% c. to l^ c . on
the spot.
E g y p t i a n C o t t o n C r o p . — The following report on the cot
ton crop in Egypt was issued by the Alexandria General
Produce Association under date of October 31 :
T he cotton trees profited g reatly b y th e in ten se b e a t o f O ctober, b u t
th e dense and co n stan t fogs throughout Low er E g yp t p a rtia lly neu
tralize d th e effects of th e fav orab le tem p erature. The h e a t and th e
fogs, how ever, did n o t produce th e sam e re su lts in all p arts. In poin t
o f fa c t, th e early sown fields, w hich w ere alread y in good condi
tion a t th e end of Septem ber, profited larg e ly from th e h e a t
and are producing a good crop. On th e o th er hand, th ose p lan ted
la te , w hich had alread y suffered from th e fogs and worm s in A ugust
and Septem ber, w ere less b e n e fitte i by th e fav o rab le tem p eratu re.
N evertheless, tak in g i t altog eth er, tu e situ atio n is b e tte r th a n a t th e
tim e of our la s t resum é. The first p icking is about eq u al to th a t o f
1 8 9 3 . T he second is n ot y e t term inated , b u t i t prom ises w ell, and
in som e d istricts is sup erior to th a t o f la s t year.
As regard s
th e
th ird picking , w hich
is
the le a s t im p ortan t o f th e
th re e,
it
depends s till
upon th e
atm osph eric
influences
of
N ovember.
At
p resen t
th e
p rospects
are
good in
som e p rovinces w hile in oth ers they are indifferent. In the Fayoum
and Upper E g ypt a ll th e cotton h as been picked, and th e re su lts h ave
been m ost satisfacto ry . Such is th e situ ation a t th e end of th is
m onth, w hich, as w e h ave alread y said, is an im provem ent upon Sep
tem ber. T aking into acco u n t th a t th ere w as an in crease of acreag e

The official telegrap h ic w eath er and crop reports receiv ed from th e

G o o d s . —The demhnd for heavy-weight men’s-wear
for present season’s consumption has again been good for the
time of year, black cheviots and other black staples particu
larly being in request. Agents in some instances find the
demand sufficient to carry them direct from this heavy
weight season to the next without any deviation to springweights, and for quick deliveries are occasionally securing
a slight advance in price. Re-orders for spring lines show
last week’s improvement sustained in low and medium
grades. Overcoatings and cloakings also show more doing
in staples, kerseys and beavers leading. Business in satinets
has been without improvement, and in cotton-warp cassimeres and doeskin-jeans indifferent sales are reported.
Flannels and blankets quietly steady. More doing in carpets
for spring; full lists of new prices show in addition to reduction
of 2^ c. in ingrains reported last week a reduction of 5e. to 73^c.
in Wiltons, Brussels remaining unchanged.
F o r e i g n D r y G o o d s . —Importers have been well employed
in attending to current importations, which are on a freer
scale than a year ago, but the new business coming forward
for any line in spring goods is of quite moderate extent.
Seasonable lines have been ia irregular demand and on the
whole without other feature than incidental to clearing-up
operations.

The value of the New York exports since January 1 has
been $10,506,186 in 1894 against $8,152,917 in 1898.
Business in brown sheetings has again been on a limited scale,
the demand for these being probably slower than for any other
line of staples, although bleached cottons press them closely
ia that respect. In the latter there are no changes at first '

The market during the past week has not brought any new
developments to light so far as actual business is concerned.
The attendance of buyers has been moderate and their operations
divided, as before, between supplying current requirements of
staple cotton goods and placing orders for spring fancy fabrics,
with orders by mail showing the same characteristics. In
woolen goods the demand has been of fair extent for both
heavy-weights for immediate use and spring lines, business I m p o r t a t i o n s a n d W a r e h o u s e W i t h d r a w a l s o f D r y G o o d s
The importations and warehouse withdrawals of dry goods
in both cottons and woolens being broken in upon by the
observance of Thanksgiving holiday. The continued advance at this port for the week ending November 29, and since Jan. 1,
in the price of raw cotton, while it has not affected immediate 1894, and for the corresponding periods of last year are as
business, has had some influence on sentiment. For a con follows:
siderable time past the weakness of cotton has been one of
g

the strongest inducements to buyers to hold off from
g » sâog
purchases of staple cottons, and frequently an effective
argument in endeavors to secure lower prices on

such business as they were desirous of putting
through. With an upward tendency in the market for raw
material their views are likely to undergo some change, and
as they are already behindhand on provisions for future re
requirements, a little further stimulating influence might

easily be productive of free buying. Sellers have not been
