we have obtained about one-tenth
of a
penny
per yard in 1883 than in 1882 for our goods and about threequarters of a penny less per lb. for our yarn, and yet cotton
(middling uplands) averaged at Liverpool about 55^d. in 1883,
against 6%d. in 1882. That certainly does not make a bad
comparative showing. Of course whether there is any money
in goods at either price depends upon the average quantity
exported, which the oflicial figures do not disclose.
As to the yield of agricultural produce during the season, it
has been satisfactory.
In consequence of the wet autumn
of 1882, the area of land under cultivation was much
smaller than in the previous year, but, taken as a whole,
the result has been fairly good. The weather was a little unsettled duiing the ingathering of the crops, and the condition
of the wheat coming to market has been disappointing.
Barley
was p'anted extensively, and there has been a large production;
but, the weather being unsettled, really fine produce is scarce.
The yield of other crops was quite up to an average, and the
farmers' position would have improved to a greater extent were
it not for the fact that with foreign produce we have been superabundantly supplied. The "prophets" foretold so great a scarcity
of wheat that a remunerative market was sure to be found here,
while there was a belief that the supplies available of foreign
produce were not excessive. The expectation, however, of remunerative prices soon brought to light the fact that there was a
large quantity abroad left over from previous seasons, especially
in Russia, and that country has been making every effort to realize on as much of her produce as possible during the season,
so that our imports have been very large. America, however,
has been dealing very cautiously in wheat, but has exported
freely of flour. The trade in American flour has became one of
great and substantial proportions. It has for some time past
interfered with the Irish milling trade, and has now almost
entirely broken it up.
The result of these large imports of
wheat and flour has been that the accumulation at our outporta
has been unusual, and has reached the heavy total of 3,000,000 quarters. As we have been importing far above our
requirements, buyers have all along obtained great advantages,
and to-day wheat is ruling very low in price. Any chance of

no present cure for the iron indus^try except by reducing production.

These figures show a production of pig iron, as already stated,
in 1879 of 5,996,337 tons and in 1883 of 8,500,030 tons, or an
increase of about 42 per cent in product! .m, while the export
of all kinds of iron in 1879 was 2,883,484 tons and iu 1883 of
4,044,273, or an iacrea?e of about 41 per cent in exports. That
ought to be considered a fairly favorable showing, and would
be, were it not for the three facts, (1) that the depression in
business is not confined to G-reat Britain, and henoa the export
demand is falling off (2) that production of iron elsewhere has
increased very decidedly, adding to the competition ia consuming markets; and (3) that our ship-building trade the
coming year is likely to be comparatively poor. Oa the latter
point we may add that the steamer and ship tonnage built
during late years has been swelling rapidly until it has
reacted remarkable proportions. A report of that trade by
Moller of London states that in 1883 no less than 720 steamers,
with a total of 1,102,801 tons, were added to the mercantile fleet
in the United Kingdom alone; and if to this be added 674 steamers,
of 982,961 tons, built in 1882, and 630 steamers, of 925,000 tons,
in 1881, we obtain a total of 2,024 steamers and 3,010,762 tons
in three years. Besides, with this must be included the ships
esnstructed in France, Sweden and Germany which form a not

The rates for money have not fluctuited greatly during the
year, but they show one fact in a marked degree, that our
bank minimum now is not changed in obedience to commercial
wants, but is strictly governed by the foreign demand for gold.
A dull year in busine&s, with money requirements for commercial purposes very small, should have given us very low
rates for money. And. yet from May 9th to September 12th,
always the dullest portion of the year, the Bank rate ruled at
the very unusual figure for the summer months of 4 per cent.
We are far from criticising the action of the Bank managers in
this particular, as the results on our gold reserve prove its wis-
dom. The following summary of the bank movements each
week during 1883, in connection with the table next below of
interest changes, will illustrate this.

The lower rates through the autumn were a direct consequence of our accumulations of gold in the summer. But a less
satisfactory feature is that the increased reserve must wholly
have come from domestic souroe.s, as our total imports in
18S3 were only £7,733,309, while our exports were £7,091,305,
showing an actual increase in stock of but £641,91-1.

Marquette Honghton
& OiitonagOM.—The reports in relation
Houghton & Ontonagon land
to a forfeiture of the Marquette
grant are in relation to a "right"
t > a land grant, which land
grant the Marquette Houghton & Ontonagon Railroad Company
can have if it builds to Ontonagon.
The Marquette Hougnton
& Oatonagon earned first by construction some years since its
original land grant, which it sold to the Brasseys of England
for $2,500,000 in 1881.
The railroad has just earned another
land grant of 80,000 acres by the constraction of its Houghton
branch. It has the right to earn a third land grant by building to Oatonagon. This land grant is estimated to be worth
$1,500,000, but the construction of the road would cost nearly a
million, and its operation, it is figured, would be a continuous
loss.
Therefore the railroad company has accounted this as of
only contingent future value, worth about the amount of effort
taken now and then to secure an extension of time for the building of the road. The grant is from the United States, but the
State of Michigan is trustee for it, and has extended the time
for the building of the road, but another extension may be
askei.— Boston Transcript.

If
adopted, it will give to the holders of the Fort Wayne guaranteed stock, mortgage bonds bearing the same interest, and having tha same long period to run as the existing lease of the
road to the Pennsylvania Railroad Company.

The pamphlet report just issued by the company gives the
statements and report of operations as made to the Board of

1883.

" The floating debt should be funded at the earliest practicable date, and a mortgage to secure bonds should be placed
upon the property with the consent of the stockholders, as required by the terms of the charter; or income bonds be issued
sufficient in amount to procure the money needed.
Unless
some action of this kind is taken, the company in the present
artilicial depression in railroad properties may be unable to
provide for th^? unfunded debt without great* sacrifice of its
personal property and injury to its traffic."

difficulties
struction of \he railway between Middletown and Weehawken
were, after great acd unexpected delays, successfully overcome, and the line opened for traffic on the 4th day of June,
1883. The terminal facilities at Weehawken were not, however, in condition to be used for freight business until the
middle of September, 1883, and for passenger business until
Jaui 1, 1884. The company, therefore, entered into an arrangement with the Pennsylvania Railroad Company for the use of
ths terminus at Jersey City, and with the New York Susqueianna & Western Railroad Company for a connection with
the Pennsylvania Railroad terminus. These connections, while
th*-y enabled the company to transact its business in a manner
satisfactory to its patrons, added largely to the expenses of
operation for the last quarter of the year. The line was opened
for business as soon as the track was in a safe condition to
operate, but with incomplete station facilities. This, together
with the want of its own terminal accommodations, prevented
the company from increasing its traffic as it will now be enabltd
to do with a fltst-class completed road and terminus.
"The New Y'oik West Shore & Buffalo Railway was opened
for traffic between New l''ork and Buffalo on the Ist day of January, 1884. The entire New Y'ork business of this great trunk
line, which is pronounced by expert railroad managers to be
the most perfectly and substantially constructed railroad in
this country, and which has recently been admitted to the
Trunk Line Pool upon a percentage which is a recognition of
the important position it is to hold in respect to through
traffic, will pass over the portion of the line in which you are
interested between Cornwall and Weehawken, and is an assurance of a large and profitable business at an early date.
"The unfunded debt of the company, which is stated in the
report to the Railroad Commissioners to be |2,311,S93 on the
30th of Septemberj 1SS3, has been reduced to $l,221,10t), in
which amount is included all sums due and claims for wlaich
the company may in any way be liable under its construction
contracts.

" PRODUCTION OF BESSEMER STEEl, IS 1683.
;
"We have received complete statistical reports from the companies owning the firteen Bessemer steel works which were in
operation in the United States in 1883. From these reports we
learn that the quantity of Bessemer steel ingots produced in
the United Slates last year was 1,654,627 net tons, against
l,69i3,450 tons in 1882, shnwing a decrease of only 41,8'23 tous.
This is a much smaller decrease than has been generally supposed. It was, however, the first decrease that has occurred
in the history of the Bessemer st el industry of this country.
The production of Bessemer steel ingots in the United States

80,424 tons. It will be seen that in 1883 a much larger proportion (if the ingots iToduced passed into miscellaneous steel
products than in 1882.
"Chatiging to grt ss tons the net tons of steel rails produced
in oar BetSi-mer steel works in 1882 and 1883, we have 1,191,383 gross tons produced ia 18S2 and 1,119,576 gross tons pro-
duced
in 1883.
•'The figures given for 1882 do not cover the total production of steel rails in the United States in that j ear, as there
•were 103,806 net tons of Bessemer rails rolled in iron rolling
mills, chiefly from imported steel blooms, and there were also
22,765 net tons of f pen-hearth steel rails rolled, making a total
production in 1882 of 1,460,920 net tons of steel rails. In ls83
we rolled very few toes of Be8.semer steel rails in iron rolling
mills, either frcm imported or domestic blooms, and we probably made fewer opeu-hearth steel rails in 18S3 than in 1832; in
the absence as yet of complete statistical returns, we estimate
the total production from these two sources at considerably less
than 50,000 net tons. Adding, say, 46,075 tons from these
sources to the 1,253,925 net tons of Bessemer steel rails ascertained to have been rolled in 1883 by our Bessemer steel works,
we have a probaLle total of 1,300 000 net tons of sfeel rails rolled
in the United S'ated in 1883, or 160,920 tons less than in 1882."

was called to order ex-President Gowen stated that it had been
expected that something would be said or done now with regard
to the collateral trust loan; but that the.sole object of the meeting was to vote upon the desirability of declaring a dividend after
certain obliga'ions had been disposed of. He said that the loan
had not been offered to anybody; that it was not wise to attempt
to place it in the present disturbed condition of the stock market; that he had no doubt of the ability of the company to get
the money. The papers for the loan have not even been
drawn, and the matter will not be acted upon by the directors
for two or three weeks. It was the object at present to know
whether or not the stockholders desire to have a dividend if
the loan shall be negotiated.

KBCBiPTa FROM THB Plantatiohs. The following table v
prepared for the purpose of indicatinpr the actual movement eaci
week from the plantations. Receipts at the outports are some
Ustes misleading, as they are made up more largely one yea
than another at the expense of the interior .stocks. We react
therefore, a safer conclusion through a comparative statement
Hke the following. In reply to frequent inquiries we will ad'
that these figures, of course, do not include overland receipts 01
Southern consumption; they are simply a statement of the
weekly movement from the plantations of that part of the cro;
which finally reaches the market through the out-ports.

has arranged to take up the cotton business under the title of
Cotton Bureau, the tarilF of commissions to be sati.sfactory both
to principal and broker and Mr. Daniel W. Talcott of long exEerience in the cotton trade to be chairman. Perhaps this will
elp to pass the proposed reduction of the terms of the commission law at present exis'icg in the Cotton Exchange.
Comparative Port Rsosipra and Daily Crop Motbmbht.—
A comparison of the port movement by weeks is not accurate
as the weeks in different years do not end on the same day of
the month. We have consequently added to our other standing
tables a daily and monthly statement, that the reader may
constantly have before him the data forseeioij the ex.act relative
movement lor the year) named. The m )vement each month
since September 1, 1883, has been as folbws.

— There
was a well-eustained
as ladies' cloths, stockinettes
Jersey cloths, all-wool and worsted dress fabrics, &c., and
though buyers were cautious in their operation.s, transactions
were large in the aggregate, owing to the great number of
selections that were made.
Men's-wear woolens were for the
most part quiet in first hands, and the jobbing trade was
sluggish. Spring oassimeres and worsteds were in light request
for freshening assortments, but by no means active.
Heavy
worsteds were opened by a few of the agents, and some fair
orders (for future delivery) were placed by clothiers at about 5
per cent below last year's prices. Overcoatings have beeu
looked after, but few sales are thus far reported. Heavy
cassimeres have not been shown by agents save in exceptional
cases, and very little business in goods of this class has thus far
been accomplished. Satinets have met with moderate attention,
and a limited distribution of Kentucky jeans was made by
agents. Carpets were in fair request and steady in price, while
flannels and blankets were mostly quiet.
FoEEiQN Dry Goods. Business in foreign goods was by no
means active, though a trifle better than of late. Fancy summer silks were in fair request, but other silks ruled quiet, and
velvets were lightly dealt in.
British dress goods were distributed in fair quantities, but fine Continental fabrics remained quiet. White goods, embroideries, ribbons and imitation laces were in fair demand, as were hosiery and fabric
gloves, and spring cloakiogs and ladies' cloths were more
sought after by intending buyers.

a good steady business in ginghams, chambrays, seersuckers,
