have been improved and enlarged, its equipment has
been increased and raised to a higher degree of serviceableness, it has a double track its entire length, and a
third rail has been laid giving a standard-gauge line all

The first result of these improvements is seen in a
reduced percentage of operating expenses to gross
earnings, to wnich we called attention last week. The
percentage was only tJ2 this year, against 70 last year,

has been so long and so constantly going on. Herein
we have ample justification for the policy which dictated
the expenditure of the large sums of money necessary
to bring the property up to its present standard.

It will be seen that while almost
700 million tons more
of freight have been carried one mile this year than in
1872-3, the rate per ton per mile has fallen off from 1*463
cents in that year to -780 and '836 in 1878-9 and 1879-80,
showing conclusively that the only cause for the smaller
receipts is the lower rates received.

many foreign nations seem to show a greater capacity for purcial industry,

of the demand for money for mercantile purposes assuming

It is well known that the demand for money is very
large, both from the South and West, and also to supply)' the
speculative wants in Eastern cities. THe Chicago Inhitnn
reports a heavy demand on that city for money in the Northwest (as high as $1,000,000 per day>, and asserts that it is not
likely to return soon to Eastern centres.
In connection with the subject of stock dividends, now so much
talked of, an interesting opinion of Mr. Jeremiah S. Black asserts his belief in the entire right of State legislatures to control
railroads. The former Granger excitement is likely to be revived
by large stock-watering of the grain-carrying roads, and it may
be a wise policy which induced the directors of the Chicago &
Northwestern to-day to declare only tlie regular cash dividend
of three per cent (semi-annual) on the common stock and IM
(quarterly) on the preferred.

property except only 4,056,000 acres' of land on the
Eastern Division, where preferred stock is receivable in payment for lands. Some parties even venture to suggest
that the placing of this mortgage for $40,000,000 ahead
of the stocks will be more favorable for the new bonds
than for the present shareholders, even with the prospect of
completing the through line by 1884, as the stockholders now
own all the above property, subject to an interest charge of less
than $400,000 per year. The last annual report describes (juite
fully the new projected lines.
The money market has been very tight all the week, and on
call loans Government bond dealers have paid 6 per cent and stock
borrowers 6 per cent and 1-32 to
of one per cent a day. Time
loans for two months are hard to get, and prime commercial
paper of four months is quoted at 6 per cent. The main hope
of the market seems to be in the imports of gold, and considerais

amounts have been withdrawn from bank in England and
France this week for shipment to this country.
The Bank of England statement on Thursday showed a decrease
of £1,000,000 in specie, and the reserve was 48 11-16 per cent,
against 51 1-3 6 per cent last week; the bank discount rate remains yet unchanged at 2/^ per cent. The Bank of France lost
4,020,000 francs gcild and 5,977,000 francs silver.
The last statement of the New York City Clearing House
banks, issued November 27, showed a falling off of $2,047,325 in
the legal reserve, there being a deficiency of $105,675, against
ble
$1,941,650 surplus the previous week.

ITnlted States Bonds. There has been a large business in
Government bonds, and under all the money pressure the prices
of four per cents have given way scarcely more than }^@%, of 1
per cent. Secretary Sherman offered to buy $3,000,000 of the
6*8 of 1880 at 102J^, but has obtained so far only about $800,000
this week. To-day bonds were stronger.
Mr. Kobert P. Porter,
of the Census Office, has completed the investigation of the
ownership and distribution of the 4 and 4^ per cent registered
bonds in July, 1880. The following tabular statement shows the

The Htook market
excit<'d, variable, feverish, weak and Htrong.
All the
adjectives customarily u.sed by our financial writers in (le«cribing
has been
the phases of the market have at times b«wn applicable. The
central point, of course, upon which the daily fiuctuations principally depended was the money market, and with the changing
degrees of pressure stocks went up or dowa. With a relaxation
to plain C per cent at the close prices wore strong and general^
near the best figures of the pa-st two days. It has Terjr oftao
been the case in times of very close rates for money that prices
of .stocks held up well during the pressure and fell off immediately afterward. We can not say that this will now be the
ca-se, but it Ls one of the old features, worth a passing notice.
The first bear attack was made on WesteVn Union Telegraph,
which fell off quickly under heavy sales, and led the rest of the
market, declimng to 87% as the lowe.st point. It was commonly
reported that Mr. Jay Gould was .short of Western Union and of
Northwest common, and on Thursday rumor said that he had
settled his short contracts on the latter, and hence its decline.
To-day the declaration of the ordinary ca.sh dividends onlr,
without any reference at the directors' meeting to a stock distriSution probably helped the decline.
It is claimed by many that
to declare stock dividends on Northwest and St. Paul stocks,
when they have been pa3'ing cash dividends so short a time,
would not'be a wise policy. The fluctuations in all stocks at the
New York Stock Exchange in the past two months October and
November are given on another page. The injunction agaiiLSt
Louisville & Nashville has not prevented the transfer of stock.
The Northern Pacific syndicate is referred to above.

wanting ready cash. To-day actual rates were 4 79M@4 79>^
for bankers' prime 60 days' sterling and 4 81@4 81% for demand.
Cable transfers were 4 81@4 82.

far ahead of them all in its proportionate gain of net earnings.
The question above all others, which stockaolders will now ask
Is the reduced rate of operatintf expenses due mainly
is this
to the change of gauge and better condition of the |)roperty,
so that it may be relied upon in future years, or is it but an
exceptional feature of the year 1879-80? If the Erie railway
can hereafter be operated at 62 per cent of its gross earnings,
or thereabouts, it maj' fairly be said that there is hope that tiie
anticipations of its best friends may yet be realized.
A brief synopsis of the annual report of the company for the

Atchison Topeka & Santa Fe— Chicago Burlington &
Qnincy. The Chicago Tribune says: "Although all the parties
interested have, by their denials, set at rest the story of the
consolidation of the Vanderbilt roads with the Chicago Burlington & Quincy and the Atchison Topeka & Santa Fe railroads, yet the two latter powerful combinations are perfecting
arrangements which will soon result in a union. This will make
a strong team."
Boston & New Yorli Air Line. The Evening Post says of
" We are informed on authority that the arbithis company
trators between New York New Haven & Hartford Railroad
Company and the Boston & New York Air-Line Railroad Company have awarded five per cent to the Air-Line Road in place
o£ six per cent as formerly. The revenue to the Air- Line under
this award will amount, it is estimated, to $250,000 a year
gross. After deducting operating expenses and interest charges
there will be from 3>6 to 4 per cent to apply on the preferred
stock in dividends. The five per cent bonds of this company are
selling at 104 to 105 and interest, which would be equivalent to
85 for a four per cent stock. The stock is free from taxes in
Connecticut. This arbitration fixes the rate for five years. The
Air- Line Company have recently exchanged their seven per
cent bonds for one bearing five per cent,"thas reducing their
interest charges to $25,000 a year."
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Stock.— The Boston Transcript say.s " We recently stated that Mr. Vanderbilt had purchased 10,000 shares of Chicago Burlington & Quincy stock.
This statement was questioned at the time by very wtll informed parties. If they will now consult the transfer books of
the Chicago Burlington & Quincy Company they will find that
more than half this amount of stock has already been placed
in Mr. Vanderbilt's name."
Denver & Rio Grande.— At the meeting of stockholders in
Denver, General Palmer voted nine tenths of the stock. Messrs
W. J. Palmer, W. A. Bell, C. F. Woerishofifer, Russell Sage, Jay
Gould and G. M. Dodge were elected directors.
President Palmer in his report gave the following particulars:
The number of miles now completed is 635, and it is expected
that 902 miles will be open in April, unless delayed by snow.
The last-named mileage would have been in operation already
but for the imp<issibility of retaining enough laborers. Winter
having approached, all the men required are now obtainable,
and between 4,000 and 5,000 men and 3,000 animals are now
working on the company's extensions. The gross earnings from
an average of 468 miles operated since the 5th of last April,
when the company resumed possession of the road, to the 1st
of November were $2,288,594; net earnings during the same
period were $1,200,069; fixed charges, including equipment
payments, were $713,866. leaving a surplus of $486,203. The

be taken under the teniis of the options. These bonds are
secured by mortgage on the road already built, as well as on that
to be construr.ted. They will be issued, except the $10,000,000
now sold, only as the road shall be built and accepted by the
Government. They are also secured by a mortgage on the lands,
but this latter mortgage does not cover any lands east of the
Missouri River, the .sales of which are devoted to retiring the
preferred stock of the ci^mpany. The following details were
furnished by Messrs. Drexel, Morgan & Co.:
The largest transaction in railroad bonds ever made in the
United States lias just been closed by Messrs. Drexel, Morgan &
Co., Winslow, Lanier & Co., and August Belirfont & Co., they
having made a contract with the Northern Pacific Railn^ad
Company for $40, 00,000 6 per cent gold bjnds having forty
years to rnn. A part of the bonds were bought " firm, and a
part on options, giving the company time to finish the road,
the bonds to be issued only as the road is finished and accepted
by the Goveroment. In addition to the security furnished by
a mortgage upon the line of the road, they will also be
secured by a mortgage on the immense land grant of the company, estimated now, after all scales to this time, at 45,000,000
to 47,000,000 acres large* than all the New England States
combined.
The three firms named as contractors for the loan have
associated with them several of the best-known bankers here
and in other cities, as well as in Europe, among whom are the
Messrs. Drexel & Co., Philadelphia ; Messrs.
following
J. S. Morgan & Co., London ; Messrs. Drexel, Harjes & Co.,
Paris. In this city the a-ssociafes are as follows National Bank
of Commerce, Messrs J. & W. Seligman & Co., Messrs. Kuhn,
Loeb & Co., Messrs. Woerishoeffer & Co., Third National Bank,
—

:
;
Messrs. L. Von Hoffman H Co., Messrs. J. S. Kennedy & Co.,
Messrs. Speyer & Co. In Boston associated with them are the
following
Messrs. Lee, Higginson & Co., Me.ssrs. Brewster,
Basset &, Co. In Baltimore: Messrs. Johnston Bros. & Co.
There are now in all nearly 600 miles of the old-constructed
road in operation, on which there are no mortgages or liens of
any kind, and on which there has been spent about $ ;0,000,000.
In addition, there are the Misseuri Division and the Pend
d'Oreille Division, making together 426 miles, a part of which
is completed, and the rest is rapidly getting ready for use ;
on these two divisions there are some sectional mortgages ($2,500,000 on the Missouri Division and $4,000,100 outstanding on
the Pend d'Oreille Division.) Within the last three or four
years the wheat regions of Minnesota and Dakota have proved
to be the best in the world, and the lands are selling rapidly.
The Upper Missouri and the YeUowstone divisions embrace in
the Territory of Montana a distance of about 800 miles. In
addition to i s mineral wealth, it is fast becoming a great grazing country.
By the terras of the agreement with the company, the contractors are to name two directors in the board, and the persons
selected for th** Dosjrions are Messrs. J. C. Bullitt, of Philadelphia, and John W. Ellis, of Winslow, Lanier & Co., of New York

As to the lines west of Pittsburg and Erie, there is the
usual discrepancy between the flgure< of 1879 and this year,
which, as accounted for by the Treasurer, results from charging
at the end of the year certain interest on* bonds of the Pennsrlvania Company and the Pittsburg Cincinnati & St. Loaia
Railway Company, and not charging the pro rata for each
month in 1879. The gain this ye\r is now published aa
$1,803,819, but the table below shows $1,545,238.

Fridat Nioht. December
The past week has been unfavorable
The
apecniatioa in the leading staples of agriculture unsettled
prices. The difficulty of negotiating bills of exchange has
retarded business for export. There has been some mitigation
of the severity of the weather, but the temperature has continued low, affording little relief to the cotton pickers of the
South or the inland navigation at the North and West. The
holiday trade, now begun, promises to be large and remunerative, and there are as yet no serious drawbacks to the general
prosperity of the country.

quiet. Cheese easy at 13c. for state fancy factory.
Kio coffee has declined to 13c. for fair cargoes, and trade on
the whole has been only nioderately active; mild grades have
sold slowly at prices showing no marked change, though the
tendency has been in buyers' favor. Rice has met with a pretty
food demand at about last week's prices. New Orleans molasses
as sold less f jeely, and prices have not ruled so firm as last
week ; foreign has been dull and nominal. Spices have been
quiet but steady. Tea has sold freely at auction, and in the
main at about steady prices; the growing practice of selling
large lines of tea at auction is beginning to have a rather damaging effect on the jobbing trade here. Raw sugar, after
advancing ^c, has within a few days fallen back to the quotations of last week, viz.: 7}^@7%c. for .fair to good refining.
Refined has declined to 9%@9?4c. for crushed and powdered
and 9@9^c. for standard "A," trade closes dull.
Kentucky tobacco has been very dull in the past week, the
sales being limited to 100 hhds. for export, and prices remaining
nominally as previously quoted. The business in seed leaf has
also been comparatively small, amounting to only 1,150 cases as
follows
750 cases 1879 crop. Pennsylvania, 11 to 20c.; 100
cases 1879 crop New England, 13 to 30c.; 300 cases 1879 crop
Ohio, 8 to 13c.; 100 cases sundries, 6 to 18e. Also 800 bales
Havana, 82c. to $1 20.
Naval stofes have continued quiet, and spirits turpentine
closed weak at 45o. Strained to good strained rosins about
steady at $1 80@$1 85. Petroleum closed firmer in sympathy
with higher advices from foreign markets which stimulated an
improved export demand here ; refined, in bbls., 9Mc. bid.
Crude certificates closed higher at 93>^c. bid. Clover seed steady
at 7^@8c. Ingot copper was more active at 18%@19c. for
Lake.
Ocean freights have been moderately active, but the supply
of tonnage has continued of rather limited proportions, so that
all rates remain steady. "The engagements to-dav included
fram to Liverpool, by steam. 7^d., bacon, 403.; cheese and

Fridat, P. M., December 3, 1880.
Crop, as indicated by our telegrams
from the South to-night, is given below. For the week ending
this evening (Dec. 3), the total receipts have reached 218,341
balas, against 205,192 bales last week, 256,618 bales the previous
week and 215,842 bales three weeks since; making the total

2,351,165 bales for the same period of 1879, showing an increas*
since September 1, 1880, of 186,892 bales. The details of »he
receipts for each day of this week (as per telegraph) are as follows:
23.7J4
Provisions have latterly declined, and many " long " accounts
have been closed out. The heavy receipts in the West, together with the scarcity of, and high rates for, money, have so
aggravated the difflculties of " bull" party that a complete
collapse has been brought about. To-day mess pork sold on
the spot at S14 25 ; December contracts quoted $13 25 asked ;
January and February, $14 73 asked. Lard on the spot sold at
8-95@8-97>6e. for prime we.stem, closing at 8-92^c. December

The speculation in cotton for future delivery, thongh continued
on a large scale, has not been so ac tive and excited as last week,
and prices— though still varying widely have shown much less
buoyancy. There has been some improvement reported in the
weather, but the most effective checks upon a further advance in
prices have been found in the quieter and eaaier foreign markets,
eome decline at the South and sales to realize by parties who
were desirous of securing profits accruing from the late advance.
But, notwithstanding the re-action that has taken place, operators
iiave received frequent reminders of the danger of being
•"
short." There were free sellers on Tuesday and Thursday
mornings, but the turn of those days was decidedly against them,
on the mast intangible iniiaence a little bad weather here or
there, or the unexpected appearance of orders to buy so that the
early sellers found it prudent to cover contracts promptly. A
feature of the speculation on Monday was something of a
" corner" on November contracts. The advance yesterday afternoon was due to the disappointing nature of the weather reports
from the South. To-day, with weak Liverpool advices, there was
some decline and a variable and unsettled market. Cotton on the
spot was quiet and unchanged until yesterday, when there was
an active demand for home conauraption. To-day there was a
fair demand at steady prices, middling uplands closing at 12c.
The total sales for forward deliveiy for the week are 1,118,900
bales, including
free on board. For immediate delivery
the total sales foot up this week 7,750 bales, including 2,496 for

the same towns have been 7,743 bales less than the same week,
last year.
Kbobipts from the Plantations.—The following table Ls
prepared for the purpose of indicating the actual movement each
week from the plantations. Receipts at the outports are som× misleading, as they are made up more largely one year
than another, at the expense of the interior stocks. We reach ^
therefore, a safer conclusion through a comparative statement
like the following.
In reply to frec^uent inquiries we will add
that these figures, of course, do not include overland receipts or
Southern consumption; they are simply a statement of the
weekly movement from the plantations of that part of the crop
which finally reaches the market through the out-ports.

of depression in the trade.
The wheat market shows further depression, although th«
sudden frosts in November have materially reduced the sapplies arriving at the principal markets of the Northwest.
Th«
export demand has been curtailed by adverse foreign advioea,
and by the low rates of exchange now current. The specohition based on the early closing of inland navigation has measurably subsided.
Prices have consequently still further
declined, and there is an unsettled feeling apparent. To-daj
No. 2 red winter sold at $1 24 on the spot and |1 26^ for Jan.;
and No. 1 white at $1 20 on the spot and f 1 23 for January.
No. 3 spring, New York grade, sold at |1 17)6 but Western
grades were worth $1 21@$1 22. Choice samples of winter
wheat brought ^extreme prices.

Print cloths were quiet, and a shade easier, at
4 5-16@4%c. for 64x64s and 3 3M@3%c. for 56x60s. Fancy
prints were somewhat sluggish, but there was a steady inquiry
for shirtings, robes, staples, &c.
Ginghams were less active,
but stocks are almost nominal and prices remain firm.

tinued to move steadily, at full prices. Heavy clothing woolens
were taken in small lots, for keeping up assortments, most
relative activity having been noticed in plaid-back overcoatings.
Spring cassimeres and suitings were a trifle more active, and in
some leading makes there was a fair business; but buyers are
much less freely than at the corresponding time
Light-weight worsted coatings were in moderate
request and firm, at a small advance upon opening quotations.

worsted dress goods ruled quiet.,, Prices of men's-wear woolens
remain firm, but unsatisfactory to manufacturers, the advance
on goods being relatively less than on raw materials.
Foreign Dry Goods have as a rule been quiet in first hands
but a fair business in holiday goods, &c., was reported by
jobbers. Staple dress goods and fine silks are steadily held, but
concessions are freely offered on fancy dress fabrics, and lowgrade silks are still selling at unremunerative prices, as are
brocaded velvets, &c. Linen goods were quiet and steady, and
there was a fair movement in holiday handkerchiefs and laces
from private hands and through the medium of the auctionrooms.

in the general
dry goods trade. There was a continuance of
the buoyancy lately noticed in staple cotton goods, and the
upward course of prices has given an impetus to the demand
for certain fancy cotton fabrics adapted to the spring trade.
There was consequently a fair movement in such makes of
fiondition of the
white and printed pic^ues, lawns, &c., as could be secured at
about old prices. There has been a slightly-improved inquiry
for men's-wear woolens, but clothiers are still operating cautiously, notwithstanding the relatively low prices at which
spring woolens have been placed on the market. A feature cf
the week's business was a peremptory auction sale (for the
benefit of the creditors of a bankrupt manufacturer) of 12,000
dozen American silk handkerchiefs and 500 pieces American

prices— the advancing tendency of la-.v silk having contributed
