—At a

recent meeting of the directors of the Homestake
Mining Company a resolution was passed recommending a consolidation of that company with the Giant & Old Abe Mining
Company.
Tbe proposed capital of the new company b

Messrs. J. S. Kennedy & Co. and the Bank of Montreal are
offering for public sabscription 910,000,000 of Canadian Paciflc
first mortgage land grant bonds.
The bonds are part of a
total authorized issue of $25,000,000, of which 95,000,000 hav«
been accepted by the Canadian Government as security from
the company for the fulfilment of its contract. They are
secured by a lien on 25 million acres of land in the Canadian
Northwest. There are several strong features about the loan
which will commend it to public attention, such as the requirement that the bonds and all amounts realized from their sale
shall be deposited with the Canadian Government and only
paid over to the company as construction progresses, the provision for applying the proceeds of the sales of land to the
payment of interest on the bonds should the earnings prove
inadequate, and the deterujination of the company to complete
the road, if possible, without availing themselves of the ri^ht
to issue additional mortgage bonds on the road, thus making
the interest on the land grant bonds the only charge against
the net earnings. The high character of the bouses negotiating the bonds is'also a point in favor of the loan.

—

Messrs. Moses Taylor & Co., advertise that they have for
sale first raoitgage 6 per cent bonds of the New York Lacka-

& Western Railway. This road, it will be remembered,
extends from Binghamton to Buffalo, and is to be the Buffalo
extension of the Delaware Lackawanna & Westem._ The work
of construction is proceeding with great expedition. When
completed the Delaware Lairkawanna & Western will become a
great trunk line from New York to Buffalo. The bonds offered
for sale are a first lien upon both road and equipment.

From the figures presented weekl}', our readers will be able
to notice how the railroad business of 1881 is going to compare in net profit.s with that of 18S0, and presently to form some
opinion as 10 the probable earnings in the first six months of
1882.
The money market has ruled very

closely, and on call loans
stock collaterals the rates have ranged as high as 6 per
cent plus a commission of 1-64, 1-32 or 1-16 per day.
On government bonds money has been offered at 3>2@4 per cent, as the
amount of trust funds and other money offered on governments
only is larger than the supply of collateral. Prime commercial
paper is quoted at 6@(5)^ per cent.
The Bank of England statement on Thursday .showed a decrease for the week of f 22,000 in specie, and the reserve was
33 13-16 per cent, against 40 7-16 last week. The Bank of France
gained 5,000,000 francs gold and 3,450,000 francs silver.
The last stat^-ment of the New York City Clearing-House
banks, issued Nov. 26, showed a decrease in the surplus reserve of
$1,482,475, the excess above the 25 per cent legal requirement
being $971,100, against $2,453,575 the previous week.

between San Francisco and the Coloiado River, at or near the

plan previously approved by the Atchison Topeka & banta Fe
Railroad and the St. Louis & San Francisco Railroad for the
prosecution of this work and the resumption of work on the
central division was approved, and orders given to carry out
the same. The purchases of rails and ties for the California
division were reported, and additional expenditures authorized.
The Ivscation of sixty-two miles of the central division west

Mexican Railway.— At the recent meeting of the stockholders of this (Vera Cruz) company, the directors reported that
the net earnings for the last half-year over operating expenses
and fixed interest charges on the mortgage debt amounted to
$1,129,.500, besides the full dividend upon the preference shares.
A dividend was declared upon ordinary share capital at the
rate of 8 per cent per annum.
These distributions of net
earnings average about 7M per cent upon the entire capitalization, which now amounts to $133,500 per mile.
The perpetual

present market value of the capitalization amounts to $157,420

1881, is stated to have arisen mainly from an increase of $625,000
in the traffic of the miin line, accompanied bv an increase of
«100.000 only in the working expenses. The principal increase

This amount of $1,887,417 in 1880-81, together with $1,193,582
received from other sources, making in all $3,080,999, has been
applied mainly to improvements of the road and propeity, and
to the acquisition of equipment and real estate. " The working
expenses have been 64 per cent of the earnings, an increase of
2 per cent over the previous year, but a decrease of 6 per cent
from 1879. This increase of 2 per centis accounted for by the
large increase in our trafiic at reduced rates, and the increased
cost of labor

and material.

" The increase in the tonnage, other than coal, over the previous year was 919,655 tons in the tons transported one mile,
121,079,362 tons; but the earnings from this source decreased
$73,349, owing to the decreased rates received, being but
789-1000 cents per ton per mile, against 869-1000 cents in the
previous year. This is due to the long and fierce competition
for business which has existed between the different lines, and
which has resulted in lower rates for transportation than have
been reached in many years. Had we received the rates of
1880 for this traffic, we would have earned an additional sum
thereon of $1,125,548, and our percentage of operating expenses
would thereby have been reduced to 60 7-10 per cent." The
increase in coal tonnage over the previous year was 1,451,276
tons; in the tons tiansported one mile, 142,203,398 tons; in the
earnings, $1,661,810; aud in the rate per ton per mile 107-1000
cents, being 845-1000 cents, against 738-1000 cents in the previous year, a result which is very gratifying. The increase in the
total tonnage over previousyear was 2,370,931 tons; in the tons
transported one mile, 263,282,760 tons; in the earnings, |ll,588,461; but the rate per ton per mile decreased 031-1000 cents,
being 80,5-lCOO cents against 836-1000 cents in the previous year
and 1 209-1000 cents in 1875, a decrease from the latter year of
33 4 per cent.
The increase in the number of passengers carried over previous year was 652,727; in the number carried one mile, 20,023,586; in the earnings, f358.315; but the rate per passenger per mile
decreased 25-1000 cents, being 2 016-1000 cents against 2 041-1000
cents in the previous year. The total increase in the gross
earnings of the road, its branches, and leased lines, including

New York Texas & Moslcan.— .\ report in the St. Ixjnis
Globe- Democrat statea that on Nov. 23 track-laying on the
New York Texas & Mexican liailway had reached the East Bernard Kiver, 15 miles west <if Kosenbnrg Junction, and was
progressing at the rate of a mile and a quarter per day. The
company, naving a force of 800 men at work, are determined
to reach Victoria by Feb. 1, 1882. J. W. Mackay, the Konanra
King and a stockholder in the company, was on a visit to Connt
Telfener, the President, and is making a thorough inspection of
the line. Mr Mackay and Count Telfener are brothers-in-law,
and they, with Mr. Decastro,.a wealthy Parisian, are the moving
spirits of this railway enterprise.
A prior report to the Democrat had the following account of
" Outside of the subvention from the State of
this enterprise
sixteen sections of land for every mile of road built, they have
purcha.sed 240,000 acres upon which it is the intention of the
company to plant colonies of Italians brought over nnder the
auspices of the company's colonization scheme ; the head office
is at Milan, with branches at Paris, Lindon and New York, and
negotiations are pending for permission to open similar offices
The fourth expedition of 450 colonin Germany, Sweden, etc.
ists for colonization on the company's lands, are expected to
arrive about November 0, while another 450 are atloat, 250 of
whom will go to Indianola. Besides these, 450 laborers for
work on the road are hourly expected to arrive. The company
goes strictly on cash business and draws all its material and
supplies from this country except steel rails, having paid out
already over $1,200,000 for supplies and having on deposit
funds to complete the road to Victoria. An arrangement has
been made with the OulT Colorado & Santa Fe by which the
cars of the New York Texas & Mexican Ilailway will run over
the former Ifne into Galveston, making this city the virtual
eastern teiminus of the line. Trains will be put on as soon as
the latter road reaches Wharton. The length of the road is
350 miles, and it is the determination of the company to have
the entire line completed to Brownsville, on tlie Ilio Grande,
and in active operation by January 1, 1883, with lateral branches
connecting the miin line with the Gulf of Mexico at Lavaca
Bay, Corpus Christi and at Brazos Santiago. The estimated
c«8t of the entire line is ^8,750,000, but the capital is iiied at
$10,000,000 in order to provide for all contingencies. Count
Telfener owning nine-tenths of the stock, none ot it will be
thrown upon the market until the road reaches Victoria, and it
is doubtful if then.
The road penetrates one of the richest and
most productive agricultural and pastoral eections of the State
and has already a large business guaranteed it as soon aj the
Colorado river is crossed."

Ohio Railway— Clev. Col. C. & I.— Cin. Ham. & Diiyton.—
There has been quite an extraordinary controversy regarding
the settlement of the difficulties between Messrs. Vjinderbilt,
Jewett and others, and the discontinuance of the litigation now
pending in the Ohio courts. The Cincinnati Gazette of November
27 publishes the following (in substance) as a special dispatch
from New Y'ork •' At a conference between Mr. Vanderbilt
and Mr. Jewett held in New York a few days ago it was found
that the dilference which has existed between them as representatives of large railway interests could be adjusted by themselves on a basis entirely satisfactory, without the aid of either
courts or lawyers. At a subsequent meeting an agreement was
entered into. The basis of the agreement is

Jewett of the Erie Railroad declared that the report was entirely without foundation in fact. '• I have made no agreement," he said, "with Jlr. Vanderbilt or with any one else in
this matter.
1 have not seen the dispatch from Cincinnati, but
my attention has been called to the subject. There is not one
word of truth in it. 1 have nothing to say about the terms,
for there is no agreement, and there caimot therefore be iuy

& Ind. RK., also denied the report.
On Nov. 30 the Cincinnati Gazelle replied as follows, in its
editorial columns
"On or before the 1st of January it will be
(•ffici.illy announced that the controversy between Jewett and
Vanderbilt over the Ohio Railway Company has been adju.sted.

from Pittsburg reports that tbe Ruchester ft Charlotte, the

Rochester & Pittsburg, the Balfalo Rochester ft Pittsburg, tbe
Great Valley ft Bradford, the Bradford ft State Line and the
Pittsburg ft New York railroads were consolidated, to form a
direct line from Lake Ontario to Pittsburg over the low grade
division of the Allegheny Valley and the Pittoburg ft Western
roads. The Rochester* Charlotte Railroad, which is the most
northerly line, has for its northern terminus the important
harbor of Charlotte, on Lake Ontario, and runs sontb to
Rochester. It has been in conrse of construction for some
time. The Rochester & Pittsburg Railroad forms the second
link in an old road ranning from Rochester to Salamanca, and
was purchased by its present owners over a year ago. At
Salamanca, its southern terminus, it forms a junction with the
New York Pennsylvania & Ohio Railroad and the New Y'ork
Lake Erie & Western. The Great Valley ft Bradford Railroad
is the third link, and when completed will run from Salamanca
to the Pennsylvania .State line. Here it will be joined by the
Bradford & State Line Railroad, which forms the foarth link,
and takes th ) chain to Bradford, where it is joined by the
Pittsburg & New York Railroad, the fifth link. 'I'his latt road
will run to Brookville, where a junction will be formed with
the low grade division of the Allegheny Valley Road.
The consolidation is made under the name of the Pittsburg &
Rochester Railroad Company, Walston H. Brown of New York
being President. The directors are all ea.stem men, with the
exception of Mr. Callery of the Pittsburg & Western. The
capital stock is fixed at ?10,000,000. At Albany, N.Y., Nov. 29,
articles of consolidation were filed.

Tirginia Midland.— The Baltimore Sun reports that a
meeting of the stcjckholders of the Virginia Midland Railroad
Company was held at Alexandria, at which the trustees made a
report on the reorganization, and it was resolved to issue
$4,000,000 income bonds to retire the first and second preferred
Btoek, and tor other purposes.
Mr. Baldwin, on behalf of the trustees, reported that, as
authorized by the scheme of organization, there had been issued
to all proper claimants stock as follows Of the first preferred,
$1,500,000, of the second preferred, $3 000,000, and of the
common stock, $800,000. A resolution offered by Mr. Jno- W.
Burke, of Alexandria, approving the report of the trustees and
confirming their acts, was adopted.
Mr. Baldwin further
stated that it bad been found impossible to prepare a written
statement of the financial condition of the road, but the trustees reported that they had issued $4,000,000 of preferred
stock, $800,000 of common stock, and of new bonds aggregating
$7,635.000 that the trustees have redeemed all the bonds
presented to them and paid all the existing obligations of the
company. All claims, with but one exception, had been fully
adjusted; that $50,000 hafl been passed to the President of the
company for the redemption of bonds still out that the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad, as the banker for the trustees, hid a
claim of $64,000, which they had hoped to settle before the
meeting, but which would be settled this week or as soon thereafter a.s possible, in a manner which was regarded as only

by giving bonds; that after the payment of all claims
against the company, there would be remaining on hand nearly
$900,000, which the trustees would turn over, after the execution of their trust, to the proper parties, subject, however, to
any claims which might be presented. The trustees would ask
the board of directors to appoint a committee to audit all
accounts.
President Barbour stated that he had, by outside authority,
subscribed $250,000 to the North Carolina Midland Railroad,
and requested that the meeting ratify that subscription made
by him as President of the Virginia Midland Railway Company.
A. resolution approving his action was adopted.

the crop has been marketed freely, the movement being aided
by the increa.sed facilities which each succeeding year affords,
and receiving an impulse at the moment from the scarcity and
high rates of money. Cotton on the spot has not mtit with much
demand for export, but there has been a fair busin-'ss for home
consumption, with more speculation than nsual. Priees were
advanced l-16c. on Monday, and on Thursday the low grades of
white were advanced '^c. ; the medium and better grades, as well
as stained, were l-16c. higher. There was a further advance today of l-ltk*. for all grades, middling uplands, closing at 12^c.

7,530 bales, including 1,233 for export, 3,433 tor consumption,

dition.

Domestic Cotton Goods.— The main features of the cotton
goods market remain unchanged. Some considerable orders
for China and other foreign countries were placed with manufacturers' agents, and a fair business in dyed ducks, &c., was
done with converters; but jobbers bought sparingly and in
accordance with immediate wants. Brown, bleached and colored cottons are in many cases sold in advance of production,
and no accumulations worthy of mention have yet arisen,
despite the late lull in the demand.

has pervaded all branches of the dry goods trade during the
past week, and the volume of business, though perhaps a»
large as expected, w.^s comparatively light. There was a fair
morement in certain makes of cotton and woolen goods on
account of back orders, but the near approach of the period
for "stock-taking'! has rendered buyers less urgent in their
demands for early deliveries of the former. The jobbing trade
has continued quiet as a rule, but a fair distribution of goods
specially adapted to the holiday trade was made by most of
the leading houses. Values remain firm on most kinds of
domestic and foreign fabrics, and stocks are in excellent con-

Domestic Woolen Goods have been quiet in demand, but
agents representing men's-wear woolens continued to make
considerable deliveries of light-weight ca.ssimeres, suitings,

fair share of attention, but the genera! demand was only modPrices of both heavy and spring-weight clothing

woolens are well maintained, and supplies are in very good
