Although there has been some recovery during the past
week, both in values and in the tone of the Wall Street markets, the feeling which prevails is far from settled or satisfactory.
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;
;

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!

prospects.

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.

of mercantile paper continues very limited, and,

although there has beea a settlement on the Stock Exchange
during the week, the money market generally has presented a
very quiet appearance, and the rates of discount have had a
downward tendency. The oiHoial miaimam remains, however,
at 5 per cent, but in the open market the quotation for the
best three months' bank bills does not exceed 3% to 3^ per
cent, while the rate for short loans, after being about Z}^ to 4
per cent, is now 3 per cent. This week's Bank return is of a
more satisfactory character, the proportion "of reserve to liabilities having risen to 3S% per cent from 37M per cent last
week. There has been some slight demand for bar gold and
sovereigns the former for Germany but coin has been returning from provincial circulation, and the result is that the supply of bullion held by the Bank has slightly increased, but
only to the extent of £50,745.
The total supply of gold held by the Bank now amounts to
£20,307,957, which corresponds with £30,681,019 last year; while

There has been a small demand for gold for export to Germany, and some sovereigns have been taken out of the Bank for
Portugal and Egypt; but the position of the gold market has
not greatly altered. Gold coin has been returning from the
provinces in considerable amounts. The silver market has been
unsettled, owing to an expectation that the price of India Council bills will have to be reduced.

—which

is less than that of the preceding year by $31,397.
the causes which led to this decrease of net profits was
the burning of the bridge over the James River in March last,
which for a period' of more than two months greatly interfered
with the throtigh traffic of the road and added to its expenses
that of a transfer by wagons through Richmond. In addition^
to this, the expenses of transportation for the year just closed were augmented by about $10,000, paid on account of an accident
which occurred during the year preceding. On July 1, 1882,.
$23,490 of the 6 per cent funded debt of the company became
due and was extended for twenty years at 5 per cent.

Among

Richmond & Petersburg.— The report of President F. R.
Scott for the year ended September 30 showed gross receipts

The usual semi-annual

per cent bonds, maturing on the first of
51,420,291 $25,000 of the old 8

July last, and the earnings were used in repairing and roofing
the James River bridge. This itructure was burned the 26th of
$26,270
1,208 last March, and the present trestle biidge, nearly three-fourths
14".170 of a mile long, was ready for use two months after. Credit is

Receipts at the oatp>rts are som^

In reply to frequent inquiries we will add
that these figures, of coarse, do not include overland receipta ot
Southern consumption; they are simply a statement 01 the

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.

as the weeks in different years d<} not end on the sam<^ day of

constantly have before him the data for seeing the exact relative
movement for the years named. The movement each month

less anxious to cover for December, and this month, as well as
the 1883 deliveries, have accordingly declined %c. to Ic. The
Chicago market has also been dull and weak of late. There
has been a light trade in new corn here, owing partly to the
irregularity in the quality and partly to the fact that, the supply
has been only mi>derate, though there has really been comparatively little inquiry for it. To day the market was irregular,
cash being lower, owing to the breaking of the corner, and optioas, though at one time l@2c. higher, losing considerable of
the advance later on, the fluctuations being due to variations in
the Chicago market. The speculative sales of the week have
reached a very fair aggregate. No. 2 mixed sold to-day at 81%
@81J6c. for old for December, 72c. for new do and 66%a. for
January, though later January was quoted at 65M@66c., with
February offered at 64c. and 63^c. bid, and May obtainable at

BREADSTUFFS.
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. Prices
8h<>wedsome advance at onetime,
largely owing to a rise in
Chicago, where the receipts have
been moderate, but latterly
the course of this market has
been downward, notwithstand-

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.

117 to Venezuela, 86 to United States of Colombia, &c. 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.

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
