The very fact that the railroad war can continue 80 long, threatening so great harm over so wide a field, in a season when merchandise is moving so freely, is a disturbing feature. Besides this, the variances and disagreements between other prominent operators in the market the peculiar condition of important properties such as Tele- graph and Elevated Railroad stocks the railroad commission bill which goes into operation with the first of January ; the interference of the Attorney-General of the State in stock speculations; and the increasing frequency each of these has added of failures in commercial circles; ; — lease and consolida- — the present system of adjustment seems very weak and faulty. There is certainly room and need for some new form of agreement with a sufiScient forfeiture to prevent one road thus destroying at will all the hopes of a ^ year. The other unfavorable features mentioned above would not probably have any great weight in depressing the market had not this rate war disturbed all calculation! and disposed the public to take an adverse view of the prospects. among Still there is, as stated, an irritable feeling operators and a less profitable state of commercial which do not encourage speculative movements, business, and, for the THE FINANCIAL SITUATION. by roads thus encroaching upon one another's rival moment at least, propitious circumstances help to prevent the more from having their due influence. The action, also, of the Attorney General in the Mutual Union matter is unfortunate and not reassuring. Had he simply stated that there was, in his opinion, sufficient grounds for asking leave of the court to bring the action his course would not be so open to criticism. But when he decif'.os that the act in question is a " usurpation of " power in direct hostility to the letter of the statute," and that "it would be a mere evasion to deny the " application," he puts himself in a very false position one that will make him appear much like a paid counsel should the courts of higher resort decide that his view is an incorrect one. Besides, the conclusion from his action is that any company which misinterprets a statute and — therefore, through a mistaken idea of the law, makes ^n however small or large— forfeits its an absurd proposition, and The truth is, th« influence of the present railroad war might in its consequences,, upon many other stock holdreaches beyond the stocks directly affected, and really ings and stock properties, be" very disturbing and beyond J,l^e settlement which may be soon made.

FINANCIAL REVIEW OF NOVEMBER, 1882. In November the money market became very stringent money which aggravated November market. Secretary collaterals caused an activity in Folger offered to redeem on presentation, without rebate of interest, the bonds embraced in outstanding calls to amount of $5,000,000 per week, and finally he offered to redeem $10,000,000 bonds with interest to Feb. 28, not embraced in any of the calls. During the last five days of the month some $9,000,000 bonds were redeemed under these various offers, and the supply of loanable funds Wn8 largely increased, relaxing the rales for money. The business in investment securities was quite moderate, but in speculative stocks there was great depression in prices, the whtn lower figures were reached on many stocks than had been made in one or culminating on the 2oth of the month, two years before. There was a heavy bear influence in the market, and the decline was partly owing to this; but, ex- among money and tbe railroads of the Northwest, the cutting of rates it would have been impossible to effect so large a decline by purely speculative hammering. The railroad earnings were remarkably large and the prospect for future months was excellent but in the absence of a strong support from large operators this was not sufficient to keep prices steady. The depression in the steel industries and the shutting down of certain steel rail manufactories was also made much of as a cause for gloomy feeling in tne market but the decrease in the demand for steel rails was only incidental to the decrease in projected railroads and the smaller contracts for steel rails put out for the year 1883. Large orders were placed with some of the mills at $40 per ton, a price exceedingly favorable for the railroads. After the relaxation in money on the 25ih, and with some prospects of an adjustment of the railroad war, the market recovered materially. Foreign exchange ruled at low figures during November, and there was a moderate importation of foreign gold. 1880. Prime sterling 3« 6 U» 7 New York Central & Hud. Rlv. Erie (N. Y. L. E. & Vf.)

There are some large negotiations completed-notablythe Northern Pacific land sale and ^T Southern lease or alliance with Michigan Central has not yet been perfected, but their interchange of traffic very closely is practically a settled matter. The coal roads have had a very good year, and now both Reading and Jersey Central ar» agitating the subject of getting out of tlie receivers' hands. Mr. Gowen has just arrived from London, but on On the Reading affairs he is as silent as an oyster. Southwestern roads the current earnings are immense, and if the public only knew what they meant; if tliey had only a clear and full annual report of Missouri Pacific and her several children, for the year 1881 to compare with, it is probable that the stocks would reflect & more sliai-ply the large earnings. Denver Rio Grande was one of the stocks that rebounded most decidedly from the extreme depression; but if there was anything further of importance than the covering of a large short interest, it has not yet been made public. At the close to-day weakness was the prevailing tone. DBCBUBER THE CHRONICLE. S, 1883. J THB IN PRIOKS AT «ANGK N. Y. STOOK: EXOUA.NQB FOR G27 THIS WBBK, A.VD SliVOK JAN. 1, l««3. l:ji.

The movement of freight t> ^ and from other roads, except those west of Albany, shows a g,ain of 5.325 tons, but a falling off of $18,431 in money. " The loss on tonn «ge is owing to the failure of the crops and the high prices of g.rain in the markets of the West, which prevented a free move ment of cereals for export. The loss in rate on through freig) it arises from quite another cause. For the greater part of t'ae year, freight both to and from the West was earried at prices far less than the cost of transportation. A bitter quarrel h/etween the managers of the great trunk lines, as to the diffe rence in rates which should be charged for transportation to Ptud from the Alantic ports and the West, was the occasion for utter demoralization of rates on all classes of trafflc; * » and the most reckle.--8 competition ensued." • " The y^ar is specially marked by the retirement of the State from part„icipation in th- manageinentof the company's affairs.

Following his recommendation an act was pas-sed authorizing the exchange of the stock of this company held by the State for five per cent bonds, payable twenty years from date, at the rate of $160 for each share owned by the Commonwealth.

Mr. Moore averts that Gonld, having violated the agreement by selling his 30,000 shares to the Western Union in June last, the other parties considered themselves absolved from allegiance to it, and have since withdrawn their stock. Judge Barrett reserved his deiision. The application made bv William H. Cameron, a stockholder, and Jay Gould, a director and stockholder, of the Mutual Union 'telegraph Company, for leave to bring a suit in the name of the people to vacate the charter of that com)any, has been granted by Attorney General Rssell, at Albany. _n the application complaint is made that the company has I violated the statutory law of the State by the unlawful increase of its capital stock, so that it has no valid stock of any issue, and also by the division of the capital stock between the directors without any adequate or substantial consideration. The Attorney General says: "TheMiitiml Union Tolegrapli Comp.iny was organized Oet. 2, 1880, by a certlllcate filed hy live oliareholders and aseociatcp, stating tho coi>it:il st.ick at $1)00,000, divided into 6,000 shares of $100 each, and — providinsfurtlicr that, by vote of the Trustees from tame to time, the cajiltal BtocK nilKht be increased liy the issue of 6,000 shares of $100 l{y ceriilieates made on tlie IStli of September, 1881. and the eacli. Idth day of I'ebruary, 1882, the directors, who are Ibe same as tho orisiuul associates with t^o exeeplions, certify that the capital stocU has been increased to $10,000,000, divided into 100.000 shares of $100 each. This increase was justified by no law of this State, was in direct defiance of the statute allowii:^ the formation of telegraph compauies, which only allows an increase of the capital stock where no provision • is made in the certificate of incorporation for a future increase. » » It does not appear that any easli was ever paid for any shares, but that of stock, with nearly the whole whole of the $10,000,000 of nearlv tho an issue of $.1,000,000 of bouds was paid to John G. Moore & Co. for the constructiou of the lino. From what I can infer, the whole plant cost some $4,750,000. 'ihe stock was evidently regarded as of no value except to control the company, for a share of tho stock was offered for each boud of the same amount taken, and the shares were soarately » • • '"J hat the action can be maintained ofl'ered at $5 each." seems obvious. It wouid be mere evasion to deny tho application on the f<round that it could not. Therefore, if the court approves and the people are properly indemnified, the action will be tjronght. and if a JudKmeut \>« directed vacatin.i; the charter the property will lie sold or transferred to a rccousti ncted cdmpany or a successor constructed as a valid organization and the proceeds divided amon^ the creditors and other beueflciaries, so that the loss will be only of a violated charter."

Hitherto we have found it impossible to keep out of our figures, as cabled to us for the ports other than Bombay, cargoes which proved only to be shipments from one India port to another. The plan we have now adopted, as we have reason to believe, will relieve ns from the danger of this inaccuracy and keep the totals correct.

FRIDAY, P. M„ December 1, 1882. Flour has advaiKjed for the lower grades, for which a fair demand has prevailed, while the supply, though ample, has been by no means burdensome. It is noticeable that the proportion of the higher grades in the reeeipw is much larger than has been the ease for some years, this fact being due to improvements in the methods of manufacture. The scarcity of ocean freight room and the high rates current have interfered with iport trade. The higher grades have been plentiful, dull and rather weak. To- day the market was dull for all grades. Wheat has been rather quiet as a rule, the export trade bein«r quite moderate most of the time, owing to the continued scarcity of ocean freight room, as well, as some further advance in the rates ; while the transactions in options have likewise been limited to a moderate aggregate. There are comparatively few grain vessels in port, and so scarce is room to the regular ocean steamers that outside steamers are being ^^^^- *^'*"* * '""^''«' °f Srnin vessels to arrive ^, at. tvM Philadelphia and Baltimore have already been chartered, but few or none have been thus engaged at this port.

The movement to OM WW '— o follows; in clothing woolens on account of former orders, bnt new business in this connection was comparatively light. Heavy cassimeres were sought for in small lots for the renewal of broken assortments, audsoiue additional orders were placed for spring cassimeres and worsteds; bnt transactions were strictly moderate in the aggregate. Cloakings ruled quiet, but there was a steady call for sackings. Kentucky jeans, doetrkinn and saticets were slow of sale, and prices are, as a rule, unsatisfactory to manufacturers. For flannels there was a steady reassorting demand at both first and second hands, and a moderate business was done ia blankets. Soft wool dress fabrics continue to move steadily on account of back orders, but worsted dress goods were quiet, aside from such spring materials as nun's veilings, lace buntings. Sic, for which some liberal orders were placed for future delivery. Carpets were generally quiet, and there waa only a moderate call for shawls, skirts. Knit underwear and hosiery. FossiON Dby Goods have continued very qniet with importers as usual between seasons, but a pretty good business was done by jobbers in fancy holiday goods, &c. Plushes are selling low, but desirable colored velvets are steady and In light supply. Silks and staple dress goods are mostly held at unchanged prices, but fancy dress goods are irregular.

There was very little improvement in the demand for plain and colored cottons at flrat hands, and selections by jobbers were chii-fly confined to such moderate lots as are recjuired for immediate distribution. Some fair-sized parcels of tickings were, however, disposed of by means of lower prices, and a few large lots of brown and colored cottons were taken by investors and mana> facturers. Prices are eastier along the whole line, but quota* tions are nominally unchanged by agents, save on a few makes of tickings, which are marked down from ^e. to leper yard. Print cloths have been fairly active, and prices are firm at a slight advance, viz.: 3 II-I60. for 64i(i4s and 3 5-16c. for 56x60s. Prints were mostly quiet with agents, bnt a fair busineas wan reported by leading jobbers. f mportatlona 1681-82. Nor. 85. The demand at flnit bands was hand-to-month character, package bnyi-ra bavjcg shown very little disposition to anticipate future wants, eavp in the case of a very few spring fabrics for which some fair order* were placed for future delivery. The jobbing trade has beeo fairly satisfactory for the time of year, the growing activity in the retail branches having been reflected in a constant demand for small reassortments by personal selection and through the medium of orders by mail and telegraph. The failure of a small jobbing house in this city caused some surprise in the trade, but no uneasiness, and the flnancial condition of dry goods merchants generally is considered sonnd.
