subsequent column. We see that the Brussels Congress has made some progress since our last.
That is
to say, the committee appointed by the Conference to
consider the various projects submitted have reported that they do not feel justified in accepting
any of the plans proposed or in formulating a compromise between the varying monetary doctrines advanced.
And yet, in face of this authoritative admission of
complete failure to reach any conclusion, the cable
dispatch adds that a proposal will be made at the next
and last meeting, which is to be held on Tuesday, "that
the Conference adjourn to June 6 without dissolving."
-So reason is given for continued existence. We assume,
in the lack of any other suggestion, that the adjournment will be made if it is made in the hope of thereby
aiding to defer the repeal by Congress of the 1890 silver
purchase law.
This is our fear, and it is the only cause
for our being disturbed over an attempt to prolong
the life of this moribund body.
Money on call has b:en more active this week and

Tnis movement his baen chiefly speculative, parties seeking to depress the prices of securities having taken advantage of the current shipments

day, when the gold shipments became known, to create a
scare in the market, rates being run up to 6 and even

changed in the two years. This established, it will no
doubt be thought that the experience of the Manitoba
has been similar to that of so many other roads which,
while having done a heavily increased business, were
forced to do it at such a small margin of profit that
the resulting gain in net income was necessarily small.

gree these temjxirary irregularities, and that was the demand
for American securities. At the present time this demand is
lacking, and tlie conclusion is almost inevitable that it is
checked bv the silver situation in this coimtry, to which more
than usual attention has just been drawn by tlie discussions in
the Monetaiy Conference at Biiissels.
Once satisfy the foreign investor that every railroad obligation in this coimtrj; will be paid in gold and that there is no
danger of our getting on a silver basis for railroad earnings,
payment of dividends, etc., and the demand for our securities
would probably spring up like magic. It is only necessary to
refer to the effect on the country of the resumption of gold
payments in 1879 to get an idea of the way foreign capital is

influenced by the currency question.
silver law of 1890 withoiit any other legislation following it
could hardly fail to have a most beneficial effect in stimulating the demand for our securities and stopping the exports of
gold.
The advance in Western Union has been partly lost, and the
cause for the upward turn of ten points or more has not been
fully accomited for. Possibly Western Union was selected as
a stock which can earn its dividends and pay them in gold or
its equivalent under all circumstances likely to occur. Again,
it may be intended to change the Gould policy by which a
nominal surplus was accimiulated out of earnings and then
capitalized by a large scrip dividend. Tiiis policy in corporation management is always unfavorable to minority stockholders and favorable to those on the inside, as the latter have
the chance to buy up stock quietly for some time before the
dividend is declared.
The open market rates for call loans during the week on
Btock and bond cdllaferSIs have ranged from 4 TO 2.5 per cent,
the average being 7 per cent. To-day rates on call were 6 to
25 per cent. Cominercial paper is quoted at 5@5J^ per cent.
The Bank of England weekly statement to-day showed
an increase in bullion of £65,000, and the percentage of reserve to liabilities was 48"09, against 47'97 last week the discount rate remains unchange(i at 3 per cent. The Bank of
France shows an increase of 8,400,000 francs in gold and
a decrease of 150.000 in silver.

Foreign Exchange. The rates for sterling and Continental
bills have been very strong, but gold shipments are less than was
expected, and amount to !j(4,7.50,000 for the week, none going
to-morrow. It is supposed that more gold will go out next
week, but the high rates for call money may check the movement. Very little commercial exchange is making, as cotton prices are too high to permit of large exports; then the
remittances for January interest and dividends on secmities

(For the year ending June 80, 1892.)
The President of this company, Mr. A. F. Ravenel, remarks in his report that there was a very serious decrease during the past year in nearly every department
of the business, amounting in the aggregate to $75,386.
This is only to be explained by the general depresBion prevalent throughout the cotton-growing districts,
and the unusually low prices current for their products, followed by a greatly reduced demand for phosphate
rock and the manufactured fertilizers. In the meantime, he
says, there has been no relaxation of effort or expenditure
towards the maintenance of the roadway and its equipment
up to th^ir former standard of excellence.
"The East Shore Terminal Company has nearly completed
its arrangements for the effective transfer of all freights between our terminus and the various wharves of the city,
•while the Ashley River Railroad Company has recently extended its track from the Junction to the several phosphate
and other works on the Ashley River, which should greatly

of private car companies on the New Englaud roads as to
more than offset this slight difference in repair account.
"Reckoned on the basis of repairs to locomotives and freight
cars the comparison between the Atchison and the five New

Oregon PaclUc. At a meeting of the bondholders of theOregon Pacific B-dilway. in the Farmers' Loan & Trust Company
—
Building, the announcement was made that the plan of reorganization, which *pas formed last spring was a failure. The
road is now in the hands of a receiver, and under an order
from the Oregon Supreme Court it is to he sold at public auction January 16, as per advertisement in the Chronicle.
Mr. James A. Blair said that in view of the approaching
foreclosure sale the bondholders would have to submit to an
assessment if they wanted to save their property. It would
be a good idea, he thought, to employ an expert to go over the
Oregon Pacific road and ascertain what the property was
really worth. If the road was worth $1,250,000 a practical
reorganization plan ought to be put into operation, but if the
proprty was not worth that much, the bondholders might as
well let the thing go.
A resolution providing for the appointment of a special
committee to investigate and report on the condition of the
Oregon Pacific was discussed. It was proposed to form a pool
of bondholders to buy the road, reorganize it, and turn it over
to a new company. Final action on this resolution was deferred until a future meeting.
L
8an Antonio * Aransas Pass.— The following alterations, or
modifications, of the plan of reorganization of this company,
originally made March 2, 1891, were approved by the Committee of Reorganization at a meeting held Dec. 14, 1892, and are
now proposed and submitted to the depositors under the origibal plan, with the recommendation that the same be accepted

the American Express Cjmpany, organized the Great Northern Express Company, which is now operating on all its lines.
It is believed that the revenue from this source will hi largely
increased by this change.

$435,80) of the Fir^t .Mortgage Bonds were redeemed and caaceled, thereby reducing the interest to be paid by this Company as rental under the lease, $33,031 per annum.

41^ per cent Bjnds, which is conlinuing rapidly, t02;ether with
the f urciier operation of the Sinking Fund, will effect the

Upon the retirement of that mortgage, the proceeds of the

LAND COMMISSIOXEE'S REPORT.
&
St.
Jas. J. Hill, Esq., President.
Dear Sir 4 I herewith respectfully submit tha following
report regarding the Minneapolis
St. Oloud Land Orantior
the fiscal year ending June 30, 1893
&
:
The work of replacing wooden trestles with stone culverts
and earth embankments has been continued, witli the intention of making all this work permanent as fast as renewals
are required.
Pariicular attention has been given to the increase of terminal yards and passing tracks.
About three hundred miles of the main track between
Barnesville and Pacitic Junction are being heavily billasted
with gravel, and the entire distance will be finished ne-\t year.
The gradiug and track-laying on the Pacific Extension between Spokane Falls and Puget Sound have been rapidly
pushed forward, and it is expected that the track will bs completed to the Pacific Coast not later than the end of the present year. The Pacific Extension is being heavily ballatad
with either broken stone or gravel over the entire length of
the line, and your Board of Directors has great pleasure in
saying that the entire work on this line is most thorough and
substantial in all respects.
The crossing of the Columbia River is being made by a
heavy steel bridge, which will be fully completed by the last
of January next.
The Pacific Extension will be readv for traffic early in 1893,
and its condition will then be such that its traffic can be
handled with all the safety and legalarity of an old line.

the variable views current as to the probable result of the
vote on the measure were the principal disturbing factors.
The general inclination of value, however, was upward, as
the construction placed upon the apparent relative positiocs
of supply and demand favored the bullish element.
During
Saturday and Monday the market fluctuated with some violence and appeared to lack strength, but on Tuesday the bulls
commenced to secure greater advantage, which was increased
during Wednesday, and yesterday the buoyant tendency was
quite pronounced. A feeling had arisen that the Ami option
bill would eventually be defeated, and to that was added the
influence of a shrinking crop movement in the Atlantic cotton
States, increased demand from domestic spinners and more
encouraging advices from Europe. To-day's market has been
exceedingly nervous and irregular, but at the close the inclination was rather in favor of buyers. For cotton on the
spot the demand was only fair but offerings light, and prices
have advanced J^c, closing at 9^c. for middling uplands.
The Cotton Exchange will be closed on the Saturdays preceding Christmas and New Year's day.
The total sales for forward delivery for the week are 1,514,500
bales. For immediate delivery the total sales foot up this week
3,763 bales, including
for export, 2,163 for consumption!
for speculation and 1,600 on contract. The following are

Friday, P. M., December 16. 1892
The market for cotton e;0Dds has again b sen quiet at first
hands so far a? new business is concerne '. The att-niaace of
buyers has ruled moderate and has princiiwlly been mide
up of the smaller jobbers, who havei ot so far taken any active
part in the bujing moTement. Ihey have experienced much
difficulty in securing immediate supplies, even from second
hands, and have found the majority of agents decidedly indifferent about booking orders for future delivery at the present range of prices.
number of sellers in fact regard a
further general advance as highly probable, and were a firsized demand to be developed thee is lltt^ doubt but that it
would result in another rise. Pre.stnt indication* are, however, in favor of continued quietude until the early part of
next year at any rate. This doe-s not imply any abatement of
activity in the outward movement of goods, as agents are on
the stretch to keep paie with the demand for shipments
against previous orders, and the forwarding departments here
and at the mills are exceedingly busy. The export de nand
has been very moderat'', shipmnnts being nearly all confined
to those on orders placed some time ago. In th". jobbing trade
business in fall merchandise and holiday lines is rather ab ive
the average, while in all lines for spring trade advance orders
are much ahead of those recordfd at the corresponding date
last year.
Collections continue satisfactory.

Houston, Tex.— (State and City Supplement, page 173.)—
city of Houstoa is offering for sile $40,000 of 6 per cent
public school bonds mituring December 1 1933. The principal and interest will be payable in gold at the office of the
The
Union Trust Company,
New York
City.
In connection with this offering the City Secretary makes
the following statement coacerning Houston's financial condition.
" The total bonded debt of the city, exclusive of this proposed issue and exclusive of the $60,000 issued within the
present year (1892), is $1,687,900, of which $1,276,80) represents
the balance of the principal yet unpaid of the bonded debt
outstanding November 24, 1875, the date of the adoption of
the prt sent Constitution of the State of Texas. Of this $1,276,800 there are still outstanding $157,100 »f the original
bonds, while the remaining $1,119,700, with accrued interest,
has been funded in bonds of a later issue; and these later
bonds, with the original $157,100 not funded, all of which
represent debt incurred prior to the adoption of the present
Constitution, constitute about 98 per cent of the entire present
bonded debt, exclusive of the $60,000 issued within the present year.
" This debt is secured by a special tax levy of 1 per cent
ad valorem upon all property in the city subject to taxation.
The proceeds of this tax are handled by a Board of Liquidation, created under a special law of the State of Texas, and
after providing for the interest and sinking fimd cf all outstanding bonds there will still remain of said proceeds an
annual surplus of over $40,000.
" Besides the present levy of 1 per cent for the protection of
this bonded debt of $1,687,900, there are further tax levies for
other purposes, general and special, amounting to 1 1-7 per
cent, thus making the aggregate tax levy for all purposes apEarently exceed the 2 per cent limit provided by our charter
ut we claim that under the decision of the Supreme Court of
Texas, in the case of Voorhees vs. The Mayor, Aldermen, etc.
(70th Texas Reports, p. 331), the 1 per cent levied as above,
being for the payment of a debt incurred prior to the adoption
of the State Constitution, is not to be computed in estimating
the levy authorized by the charter, and that we may, under
our charter, increase our tax levy to 3 per cent, exclusive of
that 1 per cent bond tax.
" Our floating debt is about $80,000, mainly for current
expenses accumulated during the past six months, and which
will probably, before February 1 1893, be practically wiped
out by our January tax collections.
" The actual value of all property in the city Uable to taxation is estimated at $25,0<)0,000.
Our population, as shown by
our City Directory, is 58,ol3.-' * » «
