THE CHRONICLE.
16, 1883 j
[From our own oorreapondent.l
;
are some indications that the upward movement in the rates
of discount, which was decided in the early part of the week,
will be followed by a return to easier quotations.
The Bank
rate remains at 5 per cent, and for a brief period the banks
and discount houses were unwilling to take even the best bills
under 4 per cent. The discount market is now easier, and the
open market rate of discount does not exceed 3% to 3% per
cent. A feature in the money market during the week has
been an advance in the rates of interest allowed by the discount houses for deposits to the extent of one-quarter per
cent, the quotation being 3M per cent for money left at call and
S^ per cent if with notice of withdrawal. These rates of interest, it may be observed, are no longer regulated entirely by
the Bank rate. Had it been so they would be 4 and i)i per
cent for money at call and with notice, respectively ; but it
is evident that it would be impossible for the banks and discount houses to allow so high a rate when they cin obtain no
more than 3% to 3% per cent for discounting the best bills.
Profits in the discount market have, for some time past, been
reduced to very narrow limits, but this is cipable of almost
general application, as competition is very keen, and all
branches of business suffer.
There are, however, reports that
the general condition of our commerce is not very sound, and
some are of opinion that failures are likely to take place
before long ; but there is not sufficient evidence existing to
justify such a belief. The uncertainties about the future are
evidently grave, political affairs in France and apprehensions
regarding the future course of the gold and money markets
necessitating much caution ; but such a policy is calculated to
bring abaut a sounder and more healthy condition of things in
the mercantile world. At the same time the agitation on the
principal stock exchanges of the world is likely to weed out
weak operators, and ultimately to promote more confidence.
Any great renewal of animation, however, is scarcely likely to
take place this year, as the termination of it is not far distant.
The Bank return, as already stated, is decidedly more favorable, but it is rather disappointing as regards bullion, the
increase in the supply not being more than £128,312. A sum
of £32,000 had, on balance, been withdrawn from the establishment during the week embraced in the return, so that the
return of coin from the provinces has been about £160,000.
Notes, however, have been returned from circulation to the
extent of £543,435, making the increase in the total seserve
iE671,747.
The Treasury balance has been augmented by
f 1,057,245, and the total now reaches £3,603,070, being about
X600,000 less than at this period last year. The supply of
bullion amounts to £20,436,269, against £20,610,746, while the
reserve of notes and coin is £10,520,694, against £10,809,471 at
this date is 1881. The proportion of reserve to liabilities has
from 38% per cent to 40% per cent, being almost pecisely
the same as at this period last year.
The money market, which was decidedly firm in the early part
of the week, has become much qneiter since the publication of
the Bank return, and the rates of discount are now as under:

A small supply of gold, in the shape of American eagles, and
amounting to £10,000, has been withdrawn from the bank today for New York. A parcel of sovereigns has also been sent
to Egypt, but there has been no demand for bar gold for
export, and a few parcels have been sent into the Bank. Since
the date of the last return the Bank is understood to have
received a fair supply of gold coin from Scotland. The silver
market is weaker, the Indian exchanges being lower, and
Mexican dollars have also been dull, a large arrival beings
anticipated next week. The price of India Council bills has
fallen to Is. 7 ll-16d.

LoNDOS, Satarday, November 25, 1882.
There has been some agitation in London daring the week
owing to the political and financial difflcalties with which the
f atare is involred. The news from Paris has been a cause for
great anxiety, and the decline in the New York exchange on
London to 4*79^ has led to the belief that before long we shall
be making shipments of gold to New York. The excitement
prevailing on the New York Stock Exchange has also had
considerable influence here, and American, as well Canadian,
securities have been greatly depressed but as the week closes
a better feeling prevails, which is partly attributable to a renewal of confidence respecting the course of American affairs
and partly to a more favorable Bank return.
In fact, since the publication of the weekly statement, the
money market has assumed an easier appearance, and there

Importa of salted pork in 1881 fell nearly one-half compared

The Minister of
Commerce h IS now presented a bill to the Chamber to repeal

pork is accompanied by a certificate that it is of the class
"fully cored."
The weather during the past week has been somewhat unsettled, bat, although only a moderate quantity of rain has
fallen, the condition of the land has not had the opportunity of
improving, and consequently the progress of agricultural
work bia been slow. PJoughing and sowing are, in fact, still
in a Tery backward state, and unless we should have a lengthy
period of drying winds it is more than probable that the area
of land under winter grain will be considerably below the
average. The low prices current for cereal produce, and the
unsatisfactory state of tie weather, militate very seriously
against the farmers' interests, and it is doubtful if there i's
much, if any, improvement in their po.-ition, more especially as

ANNUAL REPORTS.
Eastern of Massachasetts.
{For the year ending 8ept. 30, 1882.)
The annual report states that there was included in ope rating expenses a number of large items, many of which are really improvements and additions to the property of the road.
" It has been the policy of the management to stimulate the
growth of the passenger traffic, devoting special attention to
the local and suburban business, by giving the public increased
accommodations in both the number and speed of passenger
Ihe
trainf, and in new equipment of cars and locomotives.
figures appended may serve to indicate the satisfactory result

and
earnings.
of this policy, as shown by the increase of
The miles run by passenger trains have increased from 1,084,615 in 1878-79 to 1,359,704 inl881-8a, an increase of 25 per centj
whereas the number of passengers carried has increased in the
same time 2,0(59,339 paa.sengers, a gain of 46 per cent; and the
passenger earnings have increased from $1,451,857 in 1878-79
to 11,903,856 in 1881-82, again of $451,999, or 31 percent. The
freight traffic has also largely increased, the earnings of the
past year being $405,651 in excess of those of 1878-79, a gain of
41 per cent. Toe heavy outlay for expenses necessitated by
this increased traffic has been more than provided for by the
earnings, and the net earnings of 1881-82 show a gain of nearly
twelve per cent as compared with those of 1878-79.
The comparative statistics for two years have been compiled

neld at that date.
Onffain Pittsburg & Western. The Salamanca divisioD of
the Buffalo Pittsburg & Western liailroad has been completed
to Salamanca, where connections will probably b« made with
the New York Lake Erie & Western, the Rochester & Pittaburg and the New York Pennsylvania & Ohio roads.
Buffalo & Southwestern. The annual meeting of the stockholders was held in Buffalo Deo. 13. The ro»d was leased to
the New York Like Krie & Western Railroad Company on Aug.
1, 1880, and at that time the Buffalo & Southwestern agreed t'>
pay its lessees $120,000 for^improvements, and that amoant, in
addition to the interest on it« bonds, was paid on the 1st of

Central Iowa.— A paragraph is floating the ronnds of the
press to the effect that the Central Iowa Railroad Company hai>
" positively secured the absolute ownership" of the Peoria
Farmington Railroad Company, now almost completed, from
Peoria to Keithsburg. The importance of this event is being
dwelt upon by Western papers la a manner a trifle amusing to
those who keep posted concerning the affairs of the Central Iowa.
Railroad Company. This Peoria & Farmington road was bailt
for the Central Iowa Railroad Company, the latter agreeing to
pay therefor first mortgage bonds in amount abunt the cost of
the road, together with a bonus of $15,000 per mile in Central
Iowa common stock. The new road will be ninety-two mile.s
long and will connect with a road 120 miles long, now being
constructed for the Central Iowa from Oskaloosa to iieithsbui^.
The contractors for this latter line get a bonus of $20,000 per
mile in Central Iowa common stock. The.se two lines give th»
Central Iowa, which is primarily a north and south line, a 212mile connection eastward from Oskaloosa to Peoria, the great
railroad centre of Illinois, save Chicago. ?his construction
calls for 37,000 shares of New Central Iowa common stock, and
this amount was listed at the New York Slock Exchange msre
than a week ago. But this is not all. The Central Iowa will
send out another branch from Keithsburg to meet the Chicago
& Alton road at Lacon, seventy-six miles distant, and for >'•

— This
railroad was sold on SaturOhio, under foreclosure, for $4,375,000, that being the only bid made. The road was bought by
the purcha.sing committee of the security holders, c<m posed of
Messrs. E. E. Bacnn, of New York, T. Edward Hambleton and
Robert Garrett. The Baltimore & Ohio interest, in the absence
of Mr. Robert Garrett, was represented by Mr. John K. Cowen.
The price was about two-thirds of the appraised value of the
property, the lowest amount at which it could be sold under
the order of the court. The precise amount, representing twothirds of the appraised value, was |4,369,f 93. The plan of reorganization was assented to by 98 per cent of the security
holders. The proceedings require ratiflcation by the court, and
po objection is likely from the parties interested. After the
ratification of the sale new securities will be issued according
to the scheme heretofore published in the Cheoniclb.

This company came into the control and operation of the Atlanta & Charlotte Air-Line Railway April 1, 1881, and of the
Richmond York River & Chesapeake Railroad July 1, 1881.
The tonnage and passenger statistics of these roads, as kept
prior to the transfer to the company, do not afford cuflicient
material for any accurate statement of their traffic for the
year 1881 in compari-on with that of the entire year operated
by this company just closed. Such comparison, however,
would probably not be materially different from that which ia
shown by the full statistics of the other roads operated by thia
company.
These are the Richmond & Dinville and Piedmont roads. ih»

road, on which there was an increase over last year of freight

Union Pacific. In the Chronicle of December 11 comments
were made upon the large discrepancy between the estimated
earnings of this company, as reported monthly, and the revised
statement of actual earnings as published for the nine months
ending September 30. It appears that the remarks then made
were misapprehended in some particulars, and in response to
requests made by officers and friends of the company, the publishers of the Cheonisle take pleasure in explaining the facts
cf the case.
It must first be understood that any earnings published
during the year 1881, or in the annual report for that year, are
useless for comparison in 1882, as the mileage is constantly
changing, and therefore the monthly comparative figures issued
by the company during 1882 are the only authority for both
years.
The Union Pacific shortly after the close of each month gives
out its estimated or approximate figures, showing the gross
earnings for that month both in 1882 and 1881. From January
1 to September 30, a period of nine months, the total estimated
gross earnings thus obtained were $21,111,219 in 1882, against
^^The

reports and additions of approximate earnings that it mightr:
have discarded many months ago, if it had glanced at th»
actual earnings published from time to time." In reply to this^
the Chronicle says, as a matter of fact, that the actual earnings were not obtainable from time to time at the company's
office in New York, but were withheld from publication.
" Upon August 23 the TranAgain the Transcript says
script published the official figures for the first half-year, from
which this fact that the actual was not showing the gain of the
approximate earnings might have been seen by any one" The
Chronicle respectfully claims that this isolated publication
of actual earnings to the end of June, if made in the Transcript,
never came to the notice of the Chronicle, and was not followed
up in the Transcript by the publication of the later earnings
for July and August. Jloreover, those corrected earnings, if so
published, were definitely abandoned by the Transcript afterward, for did it not as late as September publish the following
statement (all estimated figures) for the first eight months of the
year, showing an increase of over 1J4 millions, whereas nsiufr
the actual figures for the first half year the increase would
have been a full million less, or only $751,000 ? Here is it»exhibit

In the same vein the Transcript says, the "reports of actual
earnings, which we are bound to say are as freely published as
are the approximate reports," &c.
This can only be met by courteous but positive denial, for it
is conceded by all that estimated reports have been published
every month, but no one claims that actual earnings have been
similarly issued.
The only full report of actual earnings in
both years issued in New York was published in Nov., and that
covered the nine months ending Sept. 30, althongh the Chronicle has urgently sought for every exhibit of gross and net
earnings which the Union Pacific would give out.
The Daily Stockholder and the Wall Street Bally News of
Dec. 12 each contain a criticism on the Chronicle figures, discovering the enormous discrepancy of $3,158,338. 'They begin
by saying the Chronicle published gross earnings "for ten
months ending Nov. 30," &e. The Chronicle respectfully suggests that they consent to call the period from Jan. 1 to Nov.
|l8,973,016 in 1881, an increase this year of $2,138,203. Some 30, eleven months, instead of ten, as all the rest of the world

This is a

Thus it appeared that the gain over 1881, which had been
f2,138,203 on the estimated figures, was reduced to $422,600
when the actual figures were published, and it was this large
difference of $1,715,603 on nine months' earnings which was remarked upon rather sharply by the Chronicle. The officers of
the company desire that notice should be particularly called to
the fact that the estimated earnings for the current year, 1882,
were not reported larger than the actual earnings turned out to
be, but that the latter, when ascertained, were in fact $861,545
heavier than the estimated, and the discrenancy of $1,715,603
above noticed, arose mainly from the very large excess of
$2,577,148 in the actual ea'rnings in 1881 over the estimated
figures of that year.
As to the facts, it is hoped that the foregoing statements will
be plain enough. But why was no revised statement of actual
earnings supplied until the end of nine months, when the
Immense difference above noticed had accrued ? When each
statement of estimated monthly earnings was issued, why was
not another also given out, showing the actual corrected earnings for both 1882 and 1881 up to the close of the latest month
ascertained by the company, thus
In July corrected earnings
to May 31 ; in August corrected earnings to June 30 ; in September corrected earnings to July 31, and so on ? This would
certainly have prevented the growth of an erroneous impression.
The company did indeed publish a single statement of corrected
earnings to the end of August, but this was given for 1883 only,
and the Chronicle applied at the office for the comparative
figures for 1881, and they were distinctly refused, and
hence
the figures for 1882 alone were useless.
The Chronicle uses the utmost diligence to get all the
railroad earnings which companies will
give out, and devotes
much space to their systematic tabulation in the best forms

Wintry weather, the approach of the bolidayn and the
closing up of accounts for the year, together with the pending
bills for the reduction of internal taiation and imposts, have
their natural effect mpon business, and general trade is dull.

Prices of leading staples of agriculture have, however, been
better supported than in recent weeks, and a more confident,
•cheerful tone pervades mercantile circles.
The speculation in provisions has been with the " short

August, ll-15c.; refined to the Continent,

Bacon was

Butter has been more active, and fancy creameries and other
fine grades are quiet.
Cheese is firm with fancy grades quoted

prime. Stearine nominal at ll%c. for prime.
Rio coffee has advanced on the spot to So. for fair cargoes, on
a better demand, but tht) higher prices have checked business
to a great extent. Options have been fairly active at higher
prices, closing weaker, however, owing to an increase in the
receipts at Rio de Janeiro ; No. 7 sold to-day at 590c. for January, 6-Ooc. for March, 6-15@6-20c. for April and 615@B'25c. for

11?!2C. or 8>^@8?ic. for good Cocnta; nearly 15,000 bags of Maracaibo have been sold within a week, but owing to the large
supply the market has shown little improvement. Kice has
been steady, and to-day was more active and rather firmer.
Spices have been quiet as a rule, and nutmegs have been weak,
though pepper has advanced to 18^@18Mc. for Singapore.
Foreign fruits have sold more freely at some advance, layer
raisins now being at $2. Molasses has advanced to 62c. for
choice New Orleans, with a fair business. The supply here is
not excessive, and the market is firm.
The receipts have been
pretty liberal, but have not, thus far this season, been as large

Kentucky tobacco has been more active, and sales for the

are withheld, and we quote nominally at 5>^@7c. for lu^s and

to-day, when 7'/i@7/ie. were the figures for 110 and 70 test;
business, however, was small. Crude certificates have been
forced down, but to-day there was an improvement from 93 >^

recent sales of 40,000 tons at ?40. American and Scotch pig
irons have ruled dull, and prices incline to easine.ss. Hops
have continued dull, and now choice new State are not quoted
above 90c.; brewers are well supplied, and the cables from
England do not warrant an export movement.
Ocean freight room has been irregular and lower at times,

The speculation in cotton for future delivery has been more
active the past week but the course of prices has been decid.
edly erratic— up one day and down the next. Early in the
-vreek the effort to advance prices had the support of Liverpool and the Southern markets, and the operators for the
Use received influential reinforcements but prices were susteined only so long as the buying went on. There were important declines on Saturday, Tuesday and Tiuirsday, and
material advances on Monday and Wednesday. Receipts at
the ports continued liberal, but hardly so large as was expected; and the exports have again been very active, keeping

Ubcbifts from thb Plantations. The following table ia
prepared for the purpose of indicatin;; the actual movement ea«b
week from the plantations. Keceipts at the oatporta are aoinatimes misleading, as thi>y are made np more largely one year
than another at the expense of the interior stoclu. We reach
therefore, a safer conchi.sion through a comparative statement
like the following.
In reply to frequent imjuiries we will add
that these figures, of course, do not include overland receipts or
Southern consumption; they are simply a atatemeat of tha
weekly movement from the plantations of that Bort of the crop
which Anally reaches the market through the out-porta.

buyers' favor, the low grades at times selling
fairly at firm prices.
All the seaboard markets are reported
as overstocked with flour, the result, it is stated, of overproduction. To-day the market was dull for the dearer brands
in
but fairly active for the lower grades ; prices showed no
Jnarked change.
Wheat has been only moderately active as a rule, and prices
Jhave fallen several cents tor the later deliveries, though cash
and December have latterly advinced M@>2C. Ocean freights
have declined somewhat, but the fact has had little effect on
the foreign trade, and the speculationhas shown little life as
a
rule, though within a day or two it has been
a little more
active.
The arrivals at Chicago have increased somewhat, but
-the receipts of all kinds of grain there thus
far this year are
nevertheless reported as twenty-five million bushels less than
those of 1881. The supply of wheat, however, on both sides
of
the Atlantic, is considered large for the present state
of
years:

tendency toward specalation on the part of either wholeule or
retail bayers, but the outlook is by no means dlteoangiog,
i
and the best-posted merchants look for a reTival of bosineMtooih
after the approaching holidays.
Domestic Corro.i Goods —The exports of domestioi for the
week comprised 2,599 packages, of which 1,929 were mtat to
Great liritain, and the remainder (in relatively small lotii) to
other dt'stinations. There was an irregular demand for brown
and colored cottons at first hands, and purchases were mostlygoverned by actual requirements. Wamsutta and New York
were reduced to ll^^c— the lowest
which these goods have been sold since 1878 -and the
stocks on hand were readily disposed of at these figares. Wide
sheetings of the above makes were also reduced 2^c. per yard;,
and there was a marked decline in snch low-grade bleached
goods as Greene G, &c. In view of the above changes the market closed weak and unsettled, and some further price revisions
will probably be found necessary for the equalization of values.
Print cloths ruled quiet and steady at previous quotations, and
prints were slow of sale, with the exception of shirting styles,
in which there was a fair business.
Domestic Wwjlen Goods. There was a steady, though strictlymoderate demand for fancy cassimeres and worsted coatings by
the clothing trade, and a fair distribution of snch fabrics waft
made by ag«nts on account of orders on lecord. The demand
for overcoatings was comparatively light and cloakings were
mostly quiet. Kentucky jeans and doeskins continued dull in
agents' bauds, and satinets lacked animation. There was »
