Perhaps the most noteworthy characteristic of 1902 is the fact that it marked a further and very distinct advance in that unexampled era of prosperity which found its inception in the result of the Presidential ,election of 1896. We think there can be no question that in volume of business 1902 excelled all its prede-eessors. The output of the iron and steel induatries, -,, hlch have so often in the past proved a trustworthy trade barometer, far surpassed the highest previous ·totals. Furthermore, demand ran ahead of production in those industries to such an extent that home pro• duction did not suffice, and had to be supplemented ~Y large imports from abroad. The story is the same wherever we look. Bank ,clearings are obviously not so good an indicaHon as many other things, since speculative dealings count in them the same as legitimate trad~, and specula·tively the year was not a good one, as the ·speculative promoter and stock market manipulator learnt to their sorrow on occasions. B11t even in this matter ,of bank exchanges the record is a most interesting ,one, showing a total but a trtfla less than the unprecedented figure of 1901-this, too, notwitbshnding that stock specula.tion as mea3ured by the dealings on the New York Stock Exchange fell off nearly one ·third. Railroad earnings re.fleet more nearly the sit·uatlon. The gross receipts of our rail transportation lines showed further growth, following the note,vorthy gains of previous years-in face of f\n important loss in the crop tonnage. MJre than that, our ,carriers could not handle the traffic offarlng; after their extraordinary outlays of the last few :,ears in the purchase of cars and locomotives, and the provid:lng of additional tracka, they still found it impossible to furnish.enough equipment aa.d facilities to move ·the tonnage with which they were overwhelmed. The locomotive and car builders on their part could not 1111 the orders for new rolling stock,· which ca.me in a perfect avalanche fr om the railroads. The :result was -exemplified in an emphatic degree in the extraordinary freight blockade at Pittsburgh on the l'cmnsyl"Tania Railroad, which developed in November, when the congestion became so bad that traffic movement -was in danger of coming to a standstill on this great .railroad system and heroic measnres had to be adopted ·to clear away the accumulated freight. The continued growth in trade .d uring 1902 was the more Bigcificant inasmuch as there were certain conditions and developments which might have been expected to interpose a bar to further progress, if not actually produce a retrograde movement. At the very beginning of the year ca.me the embarrassment of the Everett-M Jore syndicate, a decidedly "Tenturesome group of trolley promoters. As new ·trolley lines have been prosecuted on an extensive 1cale, and seem a. possible point of weakness, this fooked very much Ilka a foreboding of more serious   https://fraser.stlouisfed.org Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis  trouble to come. As it was, nothing of the kind happened. Then there was the deficient crop yield of the previous year, 1901 having been marked, as wm be recalled, by one of the most disastrous crop shortages in the country's history. What this meant to the farmer and stock-raiser every one will readily recognize. What it meant to the oonsumer, the higher price of meats, which was a feature o! the year, furnishes convincing testimony. The various labor troubles also constituted a serious drawback. There was that crowning labor disturb- ) ance of all, the anthracite coal miners' strike, which lasted from the 12th of May to the 23d of October, , and which in its disorganizing effects on our indus:- · tries and far-reaching indirect conseq aences sta~ds as probably the most important industrial conflict in the annals of trade. Nor must one lose sight of the agitation of the so-called "trusL" question, joined in with great persistency by no less a personage than President Roosevelt himself. No legislation resulted up to the close of the year from the agitation, but it made capital timid and excited fears of some move that might strike at the very foundation ofour industrial development-fears, it may be noted, which were not allayed by the action of the U. S. Government in joining in the crusade against the Northern Securities Company and in yielding to popular clamor in in• stituting legal proceedings against the so-called beef trust. The unrest of labor was one of the conspicuous features of the twelve months. As 1901 had been marked by the steel workers' strike, so 1902 will al ways be remembered for the anthracite miners' strike just referred to. The general attitude of capital and those directing the affairs of our large corporations was well displayed in the action ln Jane by the United States Steel Corporation in making a voluntary a ivance of 10 per cent in the wages of its employee and in the . similar action in N ovember of the Pennsylvania Railroad in adding a like percentage to the wages of all its fmployes per• manently in its service who were gettin~ lt'BS than t200 per month. At the very close of the year the Steel Corporation went a step further and promul• gated what looks like an admirable sohemo of profit• sharing with its employee. Aside f1om the anthracite strike there were many leBB serious labor troubles. The trolley roads throughout the country, in particular, appear to have been afflicted in this way. In some cases there were simply demands, coupled with threat of a strike in case of non-compliance; in many more cases actual cessation from work occurred. A reference to the more Important of these is made in our monthly reviews • further below, but we could not find space to incorporate them all in our remarks. As they were so numerous, however, we furnish a brief summs.ry of those we recaH, indicating where there were strike1 •  RETROSPECT.  -a nd where oIJly threats to that Effect.

High. htt:s for call loans were:, reached in May daring the Webb-Meyer happenin~s; the last three months all classes of loans commanded unusual figures, and the banks evinced a very cautions attitude. Severe stringency at the turn of the year ,ras prevented by the 60-milllon-dollar money pool. The foreign exchange market aoted ja.et as in the years preceding-tnat le rates ruled high except in periods of extreme tenston in the mouey market. There were no imports of gold save in September anrl October, when the monetary stringency here brought considerable amounts of the metal from Aastralia and some from Europe. Luger or smaller exports of gold occurred in ea.ch of the first four months. IJ May the outflow was checked by dear money;at tills centre, bat in July it was resumed. In Saptember the movement was reversed for the reaeoas already stated. The rest -0f the year there were constant fears of gold exports, with some shipments- to Sou.th America in Ddcijmber. Money matters abroad were not al ~ogether utisfllio tery. Following the gold witndrawa.ls for this slde ln Sep . tember, both the Bu1k of Germany and the B.mk of Eagbnd raised their rates of disco,rnt from 3 to 4 per cent in O.}tober. The restoration of peace in South Africa, which occurred in J a.ne, had been counted on to bring a great speculative revival, but this expeota.tion was not realized; instead, console and mining i!hares alike declined, causing great disappointment. The trade balance in favor of the United States was very much reduced during 1902, owlng to the faot that merchandise exports fell off by reason of the previous season's short crops, while merchandise im ports were increased because on certain classes of goods recourse had to be had to the foreign markets in order to meet our exceptional home demand. N evertheleBS, for the twelve months ending December 311902 the merchandise exports exceeded the mercban• dise imports in the 811m of $391,380,9-,2. Hdnoe our high exchange rates remain just as much a mystery a, before. The explanation is undoubtedly found in a constant increase in American investments abroad and alao in American purchases of foreign securities. Much is made of our borrowings abroad. Little is said of this other featu1e of the situation, and yet it is a factor of growing importance, as is evidenced by the fact that of the British loan of £32,000.000 floated las~ April, no loss than £5,100,000 was placed in this country.

JA~UARY.-Uurre 1it Event.-..-The year 190:3 opened in marked contrast with the previous year. There was no such wild and uncontrolled specula.tion as during January, 1901. Quite.a, number of circumstances induced a c1:1.utious spirit. The ooor crops of 1901 had led many to look for a reaction in trade and a d -cline in railroad earnings. which , however, did not come. The embarrassment of the EverettMoore syndicate, a venturesome group of trolley and tele• phone promoters, was announced at the very beginning of the month. On Jan. 4 the Crude Rubber Co. went into receiver's hands; the National Asphalt Co. on the 28th of the previous month had also gone into receiver's hands (prelun• inary to the default Jan. 1, 1902, in its interest payments), .a.nd these events created an unfavorable impression. With c untinueJ activity in trade, however, the effects were not h, --ting, and the full and frank report of the Uni ·ed ~tates 8teel Gorporation checked the waning confidence in ind us-   https://fraser.stlouisfed.org Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis  trial properties. The appearance of the State of Minnesota as a plaintiff against th~ Northern Securities Co. before the U. S. Supreme Court also proved disturbing. The - application for leave to file the bill wa.s made Jan. 7, but decision was delaye<l. until the next month. At the European centres a great speculative outburst in '·Kaffi:rs," or South African mining shares, occurred; the latter part of the month it deYeloped that Holland had made offers to Great Britain intended to facilitate efforts to restore peace in South Africa. The U. S. Treasury continued to buy bonds, taking $4,184,940 at a cost of $5,155.649. and though 0-overnment revenues ran ahead of expenditures hy $8,034-.000, c,ish in Sub-Treasuries was reduced from $294,449,086 to $290,738,811. Applirations to retire bank circulation exceeded the le~al limit. President Roosevelt accepted the resi~nation of Lyman J. Gage as ~ecretary of the Treasury. and appointed Leslie M. Shaw to succeed him, the latter takin~ office Feb. 1. Postmaster General Smith was succeeded by Henry C: Pa.yne. The U. S. Senate passed a bill creating a new cahioet office, to be called the Department of l ·ommerce and Labor; the bill was still in the House the following December. On Jan. 9 the Hollse of Representatives, by a vote of 308 to 2, passed the Hepburn bill providing for the construction of an Isthmian canal over the Nicaragua route. But on Jao. 20 President Roosevelt transmittPd to Congrei-s the rE>port of the Isthmian Canal Commission, by Rear-Admiral John G. Walker, its President, recommending tbe acceptance of the offer, then just made, of the Panama. Canal Company to sell its property, etc., for $10,000,000 (the value placed upon it by the com- , mission), and the construction of the canal 11cross the Isthmus of Panama. The Senate in June passed a substitute bill (which was agreed to by the Hou~e) authorizing acceptance of this offer if proper title could be obtained. The metal markets generally were strO0I!/; and higher, but in copper a further decline occurred, lake copper dropping to 11 cents (some small lots selling as low as 10½) with a sharp recovery, however, to 12 cents at the close. The Calumet & Hecla dividend was only 40 p. c . Jan. 20, contrasting with 60 p. c. each in O-:t., J dy and April, 1901. Under manipulation grain prices reached high figures early in the month, but the failure of a Chica.go speculator caused a sharp break. Cash wheat in New York sold down from 91¼ cents Jan. 6 to 86% Jr1n. 28, cash corn from 72¼ to 66½ aud mixed oats in eh•vator from1}3to 46½, in all cases with a substantial recovery before the close. The Inter-State Commerce Commission started a series of inquiries in the West with refereuce to the granting of rebates; also the format.ion of railroad combinations, at which James J. Hill, E. H. Harriman and other notable witnesses were examined, and out of which important developme uts grew later on. In the New York Central tunnel, at Park Ave. near 56th St., a train of the New Haven road was run into on Jan. 8 by a train on the Harlem di vision and a large number of passengers killed aod a still largel' numb l' r injured. On Jan, 27, at an explosion of dynamite cartridges at Park Ave. and 41st St., stored for use in building the subway tunnel, several persons were killed and ornr one hundred injured. On Jan. 7 the Chinese Court returned to Pekin after its flight in 1900. Railroad F.vents and Stock ExchangP Matters.-Rtock Exchange sales reached 14,779,223 shares, against 30,285,055 in Jan., 1901. For the reasons mentioned above, the course of prices was downward most of the month, but a feature was the strength of special stocks. Del. & Hudson fell from 184½ ,Jan. 7 to 170½ Jan. 27 on the news t;hat the dividend was not to be increased. but Lackawanna stock rose from 253 Jan. 15 to 281½ Jan. 31.

A feature was the large 11ew stook and boor! issues. The Atchison created $30,000,000 of debentures.

The Norfolk & Westnn, jointly with the Poi.:iahontas Coal & Coke Co .. issued a 20•million mortgage to pay for its purchabe of the latter company. 7 he Money lllu r k t. -Currency came back from the interior in large amounts and the money market relaxed. Holdrngs of tbe banks increased from $235,608,800 Dec. 28, 1~01, to $270.622.600 Feb. 1, 1902: surplus 1·eserves ran up from $7,891,350 to $~6,623,350.

It was claimed, however, that these shipments were made on spo"ial order. Tbe Bank of Germany on the 18th reduced its discount rate from 4 to 3½; on the 23d the Bank of England ma.de a similar reduction~ On the 22d i-ubscriptions were received in Berlin for 185,000.000 marks Prussian and ll!l,000,000 marks German 3 p. c. bonds; the first was applied for over forty times and the other over sixty times. Thne were J.,rge tenders from the United States- larger, it was said, than from any other foreign country.

Bullion holdings of the Bank of England increased £4.0~3.558 in four weeks to Jan . 30. largely through a return flow from interior of Great ~ritain.

FEBRUARY. - Current Event.'!, - Exceptionally bad weather and a new move io the attempt to overthrow the Northern Recurities Co.-this time by the United States Govemment--were the main influences during February. The weather was more seriously and more continuously adverse than in any winter month for years. The trouble really began the latter part of January, and February opened with the whole northern part of the country covered by a snow-storm. From that time on there was scarcely a day that did not bring new disturbances. On the 17th a snowstorm of great severity occurred. While this storm did not cover i,o wide an area (being confined Jargely to this section of the Atlantic coast) and the fan was not so heavy as during the memorable blizzards of 1888 and 1899, it was with those exceptions one of the very worst on record. On the 21st and 22d a sleet-storm of unparalleled sevnity passed over the country. This seems to have done more damage than any event of the kind of which there is any record. Telegraph wires, telephone, electric ligbt and trolley wires and poles-under the burden of the accumulating ice-were prostrated as never before. The Western Union Telegraph Co. experienced the w;orst break-down in its service since 1881, and Philadelphia was completely cut off for a time from wire communication with the outside world. Telephone and telegraph service remained crippled beyond tbe close of the month; for a while (as one iJlm,tration) communication with New Orleans and Texas was carried on by way of San Francisco, and in some of the suburbs of New York telephone connection was not restored until April. WhiJe slow head .w ay was being made in repairing the dt1mage, an extraordinarily heavy rain storm, covering the greater part of the country, occurred on the 28th, and gave a further set-back. The month closed with floods and fresh ets reported nearly everywhere as Uie rernlt of melting snow and rain~, from the n.o rth to the south and from the Atlantic to way beyond the Mississippi, and with a number of towns in darkness by reason of the stoppage of electriclight plants. In the Northern Securities Company case, the application of the 8tate of Mim1esota for leave to file a bill of complaint in the U. 8. Supreme Court, with the view to having the undertaking declared illegal, resulted just as ex pected- that is, in the defeat ot the State. The Uourt held that in an action of this kind, in equity, the Great Northern and the Northern Pacific companies were indispensable parties, but that if these parties were n:;i.ade defendants the constitutional jurisdiction of the Court would not extend ' o the case. Before the denial, however, of this motion (which occurred on the 24th) the wholly unexpected news came late on Wednesday, the 19th, that President Roosevelt, having obtained an opinion from Attorney-General Knox stating that the Northern Securities Co. existed in defiance of the f--berman Anti-Trus Law, had directed Mr. Knox to bring suit to annul the undertaking-. This intelligence proved highly disturbing, and prices on the Stock Exchange the next day (the 20th) isuffered a severe break, as noted below. :Mr. Rbaw, the new ::.-,eC'retary of the U. S. Treasury, announced that be would rontinue for the present Mr. Gage's policy of buying bonds for the sinking fund. The purchases for February aggregated $2,073,170. at a cost of $2.323,034. On the 17th tbe Hom:e of Represelitatives unanimously passed a measure repealing all the remaining iriternal revenue and other taxes imposed by the War Revenue .Act of 1898, save the tax on mixed flour, the repeal to become effective July 1, 1902, except in the case of the 10-cents-a-pound duty on tea, which was to continue until Jan. 1, 1903. The reduction was estimated at $68,000,000, with $9,000.000 more on tea. Treasury money holdings were $292,343,795 March 1, against $21:10,738,811 February 1.

The codon market was strong and the price of "iddling uplands advanced from 8~~ cents to 8 13-io ce nt1-. Print cloths mov-ed up from 3 ct-nts to 3¼ cE>nts. Frederick D. Tappen, President of the Ga1latin National Bank of tb, scity, died Feb. 28. Prince Henry of Germany paid a vii-it tothe United States and was everywhere enthusiastically receiv-ed. The U. :-:. !:-en ate, Feb. ~4, pas~e<l the 1-'hilippine Tariff Bill (received from the House in IJecem bn) levying the same rates of duties on imports into this country from the Philippines as from foreign countries, but with an amendment providing that upon it.rticle·s t.he growth and product of the islands (where Il( talready admi ted free), the outies shall be only 7r5 p. c. of such rates. all amounts collected to be paid into the Treasury of the Philippine Js lands aud used for their benefit. The U. S. Senate ratifierl the treaty coocluded with DPnmark fJr the purchase by the United States of the Danish west Indies (~t. fboma~. St . ,lohn and St. Croix) for $5,000,000, but the treaty fail · d in the Damsh Parliament the following October. The terms of an alliance between Great Britain and Japan for I he protection of their interests in the Far East were made public. The compact !Jrovides that m ca1-e either of the signatories shall become involved in a wctr in defen8e of those interests the other signatory will maintain strict neutrality, but, should a second power join in the hostilities against said signatory, the other will eome to its aid. A disas trous con flagration occurred at Waterbury, Conn., on the 2d and another at PatPrson. N.

The first serious adve1se development was the action of the Commissioner. of Internal Revenue in seeking to enforce a previous ruling declarin~ that collateral held as security for loans was taxable under the Internal Revenue law at the rate of ~ cents for each $100 of par value thereof~ The Commissioner purposed collecting the tax on all transactions back to July 1, 1901, and on the 12th sent out instructions which led to attempts the next day to collect the tax. This attitude had a very unsettling effect on the Stock Exchange for a Jew days. Later it was announced that the Commh,sipnn had agreed to hold the tax in abeyance for the time being, so as to Pnable counsel to prepare briefs. On April 15 he affirmed his ruling, and an appeal was then ta.ken to the Attorney-General. This. together with the action of the House of Representatives in passing on the 17th tbe bill for the repeal of all the internal revenue war taxes served in a measure to relieve apprebensiomi. [The tax was s~ecifically repealed by Congress in Jone; se~ CHRONICLE July 19, p. 113.] But on the 19th (after the close of business) the announcement that the President bad determined to p'roceed against the Northern Securities Co., as being in violation of the ShermanAnti-Trust law, deeply disturbed speculative confidence and caused a severe decline in prices. In a long list of specialties sharp upward movements were engineered during the montb. Chio. Ind. & Louisv. com. advanced from 51½ to 67½, Ghic. & East Ill. com. from 139~-1( to 149½, Ft.

The decrease in surplus was brought about both by a reduction in money holdings (which df'clined from $270,622,600 Feb. 1 to $264,848.000 March 1, largeJy as a result of the gold exports), and an incre::tse in. reserve requirements becau~ e of Jarger deposits. The latter March 1 were $1,017,488,300. against $975,997.000 Feb. 1. On Feb. 22 the amount ha ci been $1,019.474,200, the largest on record. Loans abu reached the highest figures ever Httained, rising from 5889.5al,700 Feb. 1 to $93~, 191,2011 March 1. No rise in rates occurred, and cHll loans on the Stock E:xchange Feb. 2~ were 2@2½, Time contracts for short periods were not in much demand; for longer dates the inquiry was good. Rates closed at 8~~(ro4c. on thirty to ninety-day loans, 4@4¾ for four and 4@4½ for five to six months. For paper the quota tions closed at 4 for double names and 4@4½ for p'rime and 5@5½ for good single names. Foreign Exchange, Silvi:r, &c,-Sterling exchange further  16  RETROSPECT.  advanced and closed Feb. 28 at the highest point of the .month for all classes of bills-namely, 4 85¼@4 85¼ for ,sixty-day bills, 4 87¾.@4 87½ for sight and 4 St;~.{@4: 88% for cable transfers. On the 6th Si,273,313 gold was exported ..and on the 27th $3,514,410, both to France. An inquiry for bills to remit for sales of American securities on foreign account was frequently 11oted. The Bank of England minimum was on the 6th reduced from o½ to 3; on the 11th :tne Bank of Germany also reduced from 3½ to 3. The Bank .-of England made further additions to its stock of bulb ·m, in part by reason of an import of £500,000 from India. The ' Bank of France 's gold holdingc; on Feb. 27 rec:1,ChPd the un• ~precedented total of £100.154,076, but by Aug. 21 had gone .still higher, to £105,016,~3\/. In the open market London -discounts were well maintained at 2¾ , but in Paris there was a decline to 2,% and at Berlin and Frankfort a drop to ~ ¾- Silver in London moved within narrow fra.ctions, the -close being at 25,¾d. MARCH. - Current Events.- Labor troubles were vny prominent durin~ March. On account of a difficulty which the R. S Brine Transportation Co. had with its teamsters, !'esultrng in the displacement of union workmen by nonunion men. the freight handlers on the New York New .Haver. & Hartford RR. stopped work on Saturday night, March 8, they declming to handle freight delivered by .:these non-union teamsters. This was followed Monday, ..March 10, by a sympathetic strike in vol nng some 8,000 to 10,000 teamsters, freight handlers and clerks. The move·ment kept extending day by day, longshoremen, express• ,men and Yarious other classes of laborers joining, and the 1Boston & Albany and the Boston & Maine also becoming iinvolved. By Thursday, March 13th, some 20,000 men had quit work. On that day, mainly through the influence of Gov. Crane of Ma~sachusetts, the labor leaders were induced to call off tbP strike, and on Friday - nd succeeding .days the stnkers gradually went back to work. though .more or le~s friction attended their return. The cotton•mill situation rn .New England also gave cause for much . anxiety, Wt:'aring at times a seriously threa.tentng aspect. Un the 26th of February the Cotton .Manufacturers' Asso• , ciation at Fall Rn·er had announced a voluntary advance in wages of 6 p. c., to b,·come effective Apnl 7th. 'The oper· ,atives insisted on 10 p. c., and on the 27th Mr. Borden pcsted notices that he would grant that amount of increase at 'the mills of the Fall River Iron Works Company, the higher schedule to become operative March 17. At the other mills, r the owners ha Ying refused to concede the 10 p. c. increase, .. the operatives voted to go on strike March 17. At the last moment a defection of some of the mill owners led to the granting of the full 10 p. c. advance A demand for a similar advance now came from various other mill centres. In Rhode Island and at New Bedford the leading mill owners . seem to have acceded to the increase w:thout mnch ob· jection, the higlJer pav to date from April 7. At Lowell the request W!is refused and tbe Textile Collncil announced . a strike for March 31. Through the intervention of a oiti· zens' committee, the order for a strike was rescinde 1 . ' Print . cloths at Fa.11 River were 1/sc, higher at H%c,; 1Uiddling up• land cotton inlNewYorkadvanced from 813-16c. to 9 3-16c., but closed at 9c. The difficulties at the woolen mills of 1 he ..American Woolen Co. growing out of the strike the prnvi-0us Ja.nua.ry of the weavers at Ulneyville contmued to t.pread. There were also preliminary moves i a the great strike. of the anthracite coal miners which occut-red Lhe following l\fay. At a joiot convention on March 23d of .Dictricts .No. 1, 7 and 9 of tlie United Mine Workers, declara·tioos were adopted in favor of an eight-hour day for mine laborers in p1ace of ten hours and also in favor of various ,.other changes. Failin~ a settlement with the companies, ·· the miners were to abstain from work half of each week, beginning April 1. Through the mediation, however. of ··the National Civic Federation an agreement was reached to ,defer action for thirty uays. The U. S. Government on _March 10 filed its bill of complaint againsL the Northern :~ecurities Lo. in the U. S. Circuit Court for the District of .Minnesota. Testimony was also takeo in the suit of Peter Power against the Northern Pacific Uo.; J.P. Morgan, Jacob :H. ~ch1:ff, J. 8. Kennedy and various other prominent people were examined. 1\lr. Mo rgan by bis frank answers dis .. armed criticism. Secretary 8baw discontinued bond pur,chases at the close of busine~s March 15; this left his pur-chases for March $5,IJ50JJ60 at a cost of $7,444,844. There was a decline in grain prices, and wheat for May delivery in New York close i aL 77 % March 3l against 82¾ Feb. 28. In ·-S .:>Uth Africa an event was the _c apture by the Boers of the British Genera.I, L')rd Methuen, with a loss of maoy office, s aod men; he was subsequently released. Cecil Rhodes died on the 26th. The U. S .

W eathn conditions continned unfavorable, se-.ere floods being reported in many parts of the country. At an International Sugar Conference held at Brussels a convention was agreed upon between France, Germany, Italv, Great Britain, Austria-Hungary, Spaini the Netherlands, Be1gium, and Sweden and Norway, for the suppression by the contracting parties of all bounties direct and indirect for the benefit of sugar producers. The agree ment goes into effect tiept. 1, 1903 . Railro ,.d Events ,i ,,rt ,-;t,>c1' Exchange MattP.rR. -The trend of prices was on the whole upward during March, notwith· standing the many unsettling influences uoted above, The sales reached 11,957,409 shares. On the 10th the British reverse in "'ioutll Africa and tb.e Boi!ton labor difficulties made the market weak. Tliere were also downward reactions at other times, but l[enerally prices at the close of the month were substantially big her than at the'opening. In special stocks sht1.rp advances were recorded. Among these Chic.& East. IJJ. com. rose from 147¼ Mar. 1 to 161 Mar. 14: Chic. Incl. & Louisv. com. from 60¾ Mar. 5 to 67½ Mar. 24; Mil. & St. Paul com from 162 Mar. n to 169% Mar. 22; Northwest. com. from 217 Mar. 1 to 233¾ Mar. 31; Rock Island com. f om 16~¼ Mar. 3 to 181¾ Mar. 2i; St. Paul & Omaha com. from 144 Mar. 4 to 155 Mar. 7, "Sao" com . from 45 Mar. 12 to 60 Mar. 31; Gen.

Breaks occurred in Pacific Mail, in Amalgamated Copper, in Amer. Ice stocks, and some others. The dividend on Southern Ry. pref. was raised t.o a 5 p. c. basis. The Pennsylvania RR. announced a 50-million-dollar bond if,sue. The St. Louis Southwestern ari:-anged to create a new $25,000.000 mortgage to take up the $10,000,000 second incomes and to provide means for additional road equipment. etc. Edwin Hawley and associates acquired control of the Colorado & Soutbern. The Evansville & Terre Haute re~cinded tbe action declaring a dividend on common stock. A dividend of 2 p. c. was declared on Fort Worth & Denver City "stamped., stock, the first since March, 1899. Tne Money Market.-M.oney rates ruled firmer ; on call at the Exchange 5 p. c. was frequently obtained the latter part of Mawb. Money holdings of the banks wne reduced from $214.348.000 Mar. 1 to $246,779.900 Mar. 22, but Mar. 29 were $248,303,900 In &urplu:; reserves improvement began earlier, owing to a noteworthy c-:>ntraction m loans, with a resulting diminution in depm,it liabilities. Surplus reserves dropped from $9.975.925 Mar. 1 to $3, 112,9fl0 Mar. 15 and were $6,965,575 Mar. 29. Loans fell from $938,191,200 Ma.r. 1 to $904.074,500 Mar. 29 and deposits from $1,017,488,300 to $965,353,300, .!\tar. 31 the rate for call loans at the Stock Exch rnge was 3 t.114½ p. c. There was no inquiry for time loans for short periods; rates for four to six months were 4¼ to 4¾, Business in commercial paper was confined to Eastern buyers and to those in near-by cities. Offermgs were moderate at 4¼@4½ for double names,4½@5 for prime and 5@5½ for good single names . Fo'reiy,1. EJclw.nge, t::itLver. Etc. -Foreign exchange rates we-re pretty well maintained, the fluctuations being within narrow limits. The outflow of gold ceased after borne early shipments (for the month $3.823.826 was sent to Europe from this point) but sterling remained close to the gold-export poiLt and a resumption of shipments was regarded as probable at any moment. Quotations Mar. 31 were 4 85%(a4 85½ for sixty-day bills, 4 87¾@4 87½ for sight and 4 88¼@488½ for cable transfers. Open market discou11ts at the close were 2%@2¾ at London, 2¼ at Paris and 2¼@2¼ at Berlin and Frankfort. Silver in London declined and closed at 24 13-16d., against 25,¾d. Feb. 28.  APRIL.-Current Event.~.-The condition of winter wheat for April 1 was reported only 78·7 (against 91 ·7 April 1, 1901,) and much anxiety was felt regarding the crop on accouni; of long continued drought, particularly in Kansas. ! his anxiety was increased by unseasonably hot and dry weather about the 18th to the ~0th, temperatures as high as 100 being reported from some points in Kansas and Nebraska. Later the heat abated, but the Agricultural Bureau the 1st of the next month reported the conditions only 76·4, with much acreage abandoned. Cash wheat in New York closed at 90½o, April 30. against 85%c, March 31, and cash corn 7l¼c,, against 67¾c. Another move in the attacks upon the Northern Securities Company occurred. The titate of Washington applied to the U. 8. Supreme Court for leave to file an original bill fo~ an inj1.mction (the State of Minnesata, as noted above, had failed in the attempt), and on the i1st the Court decided to grant the applicat10n. Impmtant development~ occurred in connection with Louisville & Nashville. The management had decided to issu-3 the ,50,000 additional shares of stock authorized io 189::l and sold the same. The new stock not having been listed, the com• pany found itbelf temporarily under the necessity of borrow• ing tbe shares for deltvery. At the same time there had been considerable short st-lling. not a ltttle of it by foreign partil-'S. This situation John W. Gates and a Chicago combination undertook to turn to their pecuniary gain. In their efforts to compel the shorts to cover. they were evidently obliged to accumulate a great deal more stock than they had counted upon, and they fina:lly turned the whole matter, including the shares acquired, over to J.P. Morgan & Co. The Amalgamated Copper Co. made another cut in its dividend,  RETROSPECT. -declaring ·only ½ of 1 p. c. quarterly. The Calumet & Hecla Mining I o. declared only 20 p. c .. against 40 in January and mucb higoer amounts pre,·iously. The report of the cooferrees of the two Houses of Congress on the War Revenue Repeal bill was adopted April 7, and tbe bill became a law. Its features are outlined in our remarks for February. Government deposits in the banks were further increased, they ag_greg;).ting $ 20,396,715 May 1, against. $118,041,310 April 1, $113,433,Y47 March 1 and $112,578.62 Feb. 1. The ::3ecretary also announced that it was his puqJose to add still more to the total. db.tributing the new sums mainly among \Ve8tern banks. The Engbs ·i budgHt was submitted to Parliament, -containing proposals for additional taxes and accompanied by a new loan for £132,000,000. Another uenny was added to t.he income tax, and a registration iruport duty (like that .abandoned in 186\J) imposed on grain, with a correlative duty on flour and meal. The first effects of these import -0.utLes was to cause a rise in the price of wheat and flour in England and also of bread tkere. The new loan took the form of consols, and was issued at 93½, Half the loan (£16,000,00IJ) was taken in advance by J.P. M0rgan, the Roth::ch1lds and the Barings, and the other half was sub-scribed for twenty times. Messrs. J.P. Morgan & Co,. Baring, Ma.goun & Co., Drexel & Co. and Kidder, Peabody -& Co. forwarded subscriptions from the United States ; £5,100,000 was placed in this country. Peace negotbtions were prosecuted by the Boer leaders, wbo finally concludeJ to take the vote of the commandoes in the field -on t.he question. Russia also brought out a lom (4 per -cents) for £15,000,000, in Berlin, Frankfort, Amsterdam and St. Petersburg, the issue price being 97 ½. and this also was subscribed for many times-100 times, it is said. The con• tinued advance in the prices of meats as the result of the J>revious year's crop shortage led to a concerted movement again::.t the so-called Beef Trust, investigations being begun by both the State and the national authorities The price of middlit,g uplands co:ton in New York advanced from 9 -cents to 9½, closing April 30 at 9 13-16 cents. Notwithstanding this advance and the 10 p. c. increase in the wages of mill operative.,, the price of print cloths (regular sizes) remained unchanged at 3% CE:nts per yard. On account of the continuance and spread of the strike at its mdls in R. I., the American Woolen Co. was obliged to announce early in the month that deliveries on orders would be indefinitely delayed. An extensive steamship combination was arranged by Mr.J. P. Morgan in L')ndon, embracing most of the lines open,ting on the North At 'ant.ic. namely the White Star .line, the DJminion line, the American and R1:d Star Imes, the Le) land line and the Atlantic Transµort Co.; purchase was not completed until December. The combination was --capitalized at $170,000,000-$1.10 .000,000 in stock and $50,000.000 bo o1s (V. 74, p. 1098). The arrangement excited much hostLle critici!"m in England, where at was construed as possibly endan ;: ering British supremacy on the i.eas. An agr1-e:inent with the German and other Continental tran;;-Atl -r ntlc lines was part of the pla.n. To provide relief for tb.e Cuban :sugar and tobacco interests the House of Rt>presenta.t1Yes at Wasbiugton on the 18th passed tbc, Cuban Rec iprocity Bili -providing for a 20 p. o. reduction in tariff duties, but with an amendment (engrafted on the bill by a minority of the Republicc1ns in conjunction with the solid Democratic vote) .abolishing the differential duty on refined suga:r. Tbe meas·ure wa.., bung up in the Senate. A new Chinese Exclusion bill became a law April 2\j, continuing the existing law and extendiul-! its operation to the new island posses~ions of the ·united :,;1 ates. Gov Od~Jl April 17 signed a biq fixrng the btate tax 1or tr ,e year begmnmg Oct. i, 1902, at only 13 hundred I hs of a mill, the lowest in the history of the State, .and pointed out that except for the Constitutional prov1s10n requir10g a levy on account of the canal debt there would be .no direct tax at all. The Gove1·nor also sigoed bill,i further -extending the list of savings-bank investments 1n New York State-particularly in railroad mortgage bouds V. 74. p 751. He vetoed the Krum Corporation Tax bills. The Stranahan Mortgage Tax bill, subjecting mortgages to a re -cording tax of one-half of one p. c., but exempting them thereafter from the personal property tax. died in the Legislature. The National City Bank announced that its capLtal was to be increased from 810.00 ,1100 to ·t5,000.000 and its surplus from 7,500,000 to $15.000.000 by tbe sale of 15 mil·Jioos new sto.·k at 150. The Fu-st, National Bank of Chicago -arranged to absorb the Metropolitan National of tbe same oity, and to incrtase its capLtal from $5,000,000 to $~,000,000, In June the National Bank of Commerce of :-.t. Loui:1 was -consolidated with the Continental National and its capital increated from $,5,000,000 to $7,000,000. A grec1t conflagration occurred April 3 at Atlantic Cit.y, destroying a large number of the hotels there. Railr,,ud Ev.-ntx and Stock Excha11ge Matfer.q -Much similarity existt·d between the stock market of April 1902 and that of the same month in 1901. Transactions did not reach the same extraordinary proportions, and yet the salt-s aggregated 26,567,743 shares, makmg the month one of the very largest on record. The speculation was hardly less r "ckles-; than on that occasion, though more coospicuous m specialties than in the standard stocks, and with the further difference that tbe general p11blic was not present in the market to the same extent. Clique manipulation was stroogly in evidence, startling ad,ances in prices being re l· orded from day to day, which were apparently effected with the utmost ease. As it happened, the performancrs in Loui~-   https://fraser.stlouisfed.org Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis  1'7  \'ille & Nashville served to promote the speculative fe,er. At first the threatened corner in that stock created a decidedly uneasy feeling, many fearing a repetition of thedisaster attending the Northern Pacific struggle in May 1901. But when it was seen that this danger had been. averted, great buoyancy developed, the unfavorable prospects for winter whea.t acting on only one or two occasions to give a set-back. In some high-grade ina~tive stocks there were instances of gains of 10@15 points in a single day. On the last day of the month a sudden break in a prelude as served Internationlil Power stock to the disturbances which came the next month. This stock had been run up from 95 April 1 to 199 April 29, and dropped without warning April 30 to 120. The occurrence was naively explained by one of the interested parties as due to the failure to give a counterbalancing order to buy when an order to sell 3,• 00 shares was put in. As showing some of the month's advances, New Haven stock rose from 215 to 25J, Michigan Central from 150 to 192, North West. common from 232 to 271, Nashville Chatt. & St. Louis from 89½ to 122, Illinois Central from 141¾ to 153_¾, Keokuk & Des Moines common from 20 to 40~i, Fort Worth & Denver City 36¾ to 51½, Chic. Ind. & Louis. common from 57½ to 72¾, Chic. & East. Ill. common from 156¼ to 174, Canadian Pacific from 112½ to 129%, St. Paul & Omaha common from 153 to 170½, Hocking Valley common from 73½ to 851/s, Read int? com. from 56% to 68¼, etc., the high points being recorded as a. rule towards the close of tbe month. There were some sharp advances in the industrial properties. too, American Snuff com. going from 74¾ to 106¼, Brooklyn Union Gets from 223 to 242, Colorado Fuel & Iron from 95 to 110½, New York Air Brake from 154¼' to 196, Westinghouse Electric com. from 195 to 230½, etc. Louisville & Nashville sold up from 105¼. April 2 to 133 April 14, but after it was aonounced that there would be no contest for control, there wa.sareaciion, and the ~lose April 30 was at 128. When the excitement in L. & N. was at its height enormous transactions took place in Southern Railway common shares, and the price ran up to 4.0½ April 15 (against 32¾ April 1); the price quickly receded, and the close (April 30J was at 36%, Umted States titeel stocks moved within a narrow range, the appearance of the company',s circular with reference to the ibsue of the 250 million new bonds (200 millions going to retire a corresponding amount of preferred stock) being without much influence. Railroad absorptions were quite numerous, the Louisville & Nashville arranging to take the Atlanta Knoxville & Northern (this being one of the purposes of the issue of the $5,000,000 new stock), the Chic. Rock Isl. & Pacific the Choctaw OkJahoma & Gulf, and the .Atlantic Coast Line the ~av. Florida & Western, or Plant system. The Rock Island issued 24.000,00u of 4 p. c. bonds to pay for the Choctaw shares acquired. The Hf>inze copper properties were united under the c..arne of the United Copper Co. of Montana, with $80,000,000 capital. The Mrmey Murket.-Money rates worked higher. TheClearing House s~atement April 5 :showed surplus reserves, of only $2,649.525, tbe sma.llt>st since Nov .. 1899. The following ~fonday ( April 7) 2½ m 1!1iuns gold was engaged for shipment to Eurnpe tbe ne\L day, and call loan rates at the Stock Exchange touched 7. the sa.me figure beiog- again reached on the 9th. Surplu~ reserves increased to $-1.5il,7!'i0 April 12, to $13.578.650 April 19, and to $9.461,050 April 26, but 5@6 was frequently paid on call, and the range April 30 was 3_¾ra8, banks then loaning at 4½ as the minimum. Time loans at close were 4@4½ per annum for from four to i-ix months aud paper 4¼-a4½ for double names and 4½ta5l,,4 for prime and Mtf,½ for good single names.

On the 7th $2,518,689 gold was engaged for export to France the next day. Tne st1:ffoess in the local money market, however, brought about some decline in sterlinjr, stopping the gold outflow. Later an urgent demand for bills, -partly to remit for Louisville & Nashville stock purchased in Europe on American account, and partly also in connection with the American subscriptions to the D'3W Britiso loan, cau~ed an upward reactlOn again, but no further gold shipments occurred. Rates see•sawed a good deal. bnt withi 1 \ narrow liuii's.

MAY..-Cur-rent Fve"t~.-Acollapse in a number of ''cw·b" securities marked the opening of May and later the strike of the anthracite <'O::tl miners ocC'urred. The udden break April 30 011 tbe Slot.:k Exchange in Iaternalional Power  18  RETROSPECT.  stock (narrated above) was quickly succeeded by a complete break-down of the so <'alled \Vehb-.\leyer specia.ltie~. though Dr, William Seward Webb emphatically denied that there had ever been such a thing a.s a Webb-Meyer syndicate. and from his statement (V. 74, p. 987,) he does not appear to have been pecuniarily interested jn any except the Rutland Railroad, though abo haviog acted as President of the Dominion Securities Company. The properties involved besides the Rutland RR. were the St. LawrencP & Adirondack Ry., the Dominion SPcurities Co .. the Hackensack Meadows Co .. thP North American Lumber & Pulp Co. and the Storage Power Co. Excepting the first two these were all curb specialties, and a most extraordinary manipulation had been carried on in them. Contrasting market values at the beginning and end of the month. Dominion Securities dropped from 118¼' to 16, Hackensack Meadows from 79½ to 8, St ,rage Power from 10¼ to 3½ and North American Lumber & Pulp from 39¼ to 5 bid. A report on these various properties made at the end of the month by an investigating committee revealed a barren array of assets. A very credulous state of the public mind had alone made possible the marking up of these shares, just as it had permitted the manipulation upward in April of General Carria.~e stock (a. con<'ern in receiver's hands) from ½ to 20½, only to be followed by a qmck break when a few days subsequently an asse~sment on the shares was announced. With the collapse in these various things a somewhat serious situation developed. Dr. Webb came to the rescue and bought r,ack from Meyer a large amount of the $1,250,000 Rutland preferred stock which he had sold to him in January, and which was now pledged in loans. This, however, did not prevent the failure of three Stock Exchange concerns, namely Henry Bros. & Company, Lockwood, Hurd & Company and Offenbach & Moore, Henry Bros. & Compar y subsequently resumed. The anthracite miners' strike came as a surprise. The conferences early in the month between operators and miners, arranged through the National Civic Federation, having proved fruitless, the executive committees of the anthracite mine workers on May 9 directed a temporary strike to begin Monday, May 12, and to continue pending a decision by the miners tbemsel ves at a convention which bad been called for l\1ay 14 at Hazleton, Pa. On May 15 this convention by a vote of 461¾ to 349¾ (the basis of representation being one vote for each 100 miners) endorsed tbe strike, and the 145,000 miners involved continued in idleness. With the view to bringing further pressure on the operators, the engineers. firemen and pumpmen were directed to quit work June 2, the intention bemg to let the mines fill with water. District No. 17 of the United Mine Workers, which embraces the bituminous coal miners of Virginia and West Virginia, on May 24 also voted to suspend work on June 7 unless their demands for increased wages. etc., were complied with. After about three weeks' idleness the weavers at the Washington Mill (at Lawrence, Mass.,), owned by the American Woolen Co., decided to return to work on May 12; the strike against the double-loom system at Olneyville, R. I., and other points continued. The high price of meats led to attacks on the East Side of this city and at Newark, N, J., Boston, Mass., and other points, upon the kosher butchers, and small sized riots were of frequent occurrence, Agricultural prospects improved under good raius. though the report of the Agricultural Bureau at Washington the next month ~bowed the condition of winter wheat little changed at 76•1; spring wheat was 95·4. Wheat prices declined.- M•ddling upland cotton in New York declined from 9 13-16 cents April l30 to 9½ cents May 29. Print cloths droppe i from 0% to ~¼" cen•s.

One of the greatest calamities in the world's history occurred on May 8th in the destruction by a volc'ano on Mont Pelee of thP. town of St. Pierre, on the French Island of Martinique, m the West Indies; 1t is estimated about 40,000 persons perished. There was also a volcanic eruption on the British island of St. Vincent, with the loss of about 2.000 lives. Our people came to the relief of the suffning survivors and Congre!'s voted an appropriation. The Clearing House Committee of the New York Clearing House Assocjation adooted rulei;i declaring that institutions hereafter admitted to Clearing House privileges (trust companies as wfll as banks) shall be required to keep in tbeir vaults such cash reserves as the committee may determine, Rmlroad Events ana ,~tock Exchan-0e MatterR,_.:_The market was subjected to a severe test in the deverlopments noted above, but held .up remarkably well. The collapse in the   https://fraser.stlouisfed.org Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis  Webb-Meyer stock~, with the attendant disturbance of the money market, caused a sbarp fall in the general Jist at the opening of the month; and the prospect of a strike in the anthracite regions kept the market unsettled for q'.lite a while: It was supposed up to the last that the strike would be averted. When this proved not to be the case, some further decline occurred, but the selling pressure soon abated, and after the 19th the course of the market was rAversPd. Milwaukee & St. Paul common dropped from 175 May 1 to 165¾ May 19 and closed at 170½ May 29.

The members of the American Railway Association agreed to adopt the per diem method of payment for cars, beginning July 1. The Money Market-The break in International Power andcollapse in the so-called Webb-Meyer shares had a decidedly disturbing effect on money rates the early part of Ma.y. On call at the Stock Exchange the extreme figure May 1 was 15, on May 2 it was 10 and on May 5 (with the failures on theExchange) 25 p. c. Even on this last-mentioned day some large financial institutions, including J.P. Morgan & C'o., did not exact more than 6 p. c. On the tith the highest rate was 10► on the 7th 15, on the Hth 9, on the 9th 8; May 12 the small bank reserves disclosed the previous Saturday and the distribution of $10,000,000 to the members of the U. s.

Jt~ reign Exeha•1ge, Silv~r, &e The high money rates here brought about a sharp declme in sterling exchange th&first half of May. Exchange was bought only to meet the Tu.Ost url;!ent requirements for remittance. bankers placing their funds in toe money -market in preference. There were also consider~ble offerin.,-s of sight drafts on account transfers of ~ecurit•es for the purpose of employing them as. collateral for direct loarR in Europe imtead of their being used here as the basis for sterlmg loans. Furthermore, the favorable outlook for peace in South Africa stimulated buying of 1,tocks in tbis market for European account. From 4 8,5¼@4 8~% on May 1 the price of long bills dropped by May 14 to 4 ~4@4 84¼, the quotation for sight from 4 8':'½@ 4 88 to 4 8fi½@4 86¾, and for cables from 4 88%@488¼ to4 87(m4 87¼, The market was irregular after that,· first rising. then falling. !lnd the clo"!P May 29 was 4 84%@4 84½t 4 87@4 87¼ and 4 8i½@@4 87½ for the three claF-ses of bills.

The document embodying the terms was actually signed ~aturdav, May 31, but the fact did not become definitely known until June 1. A break in the South African mining. market was one of the features of the month, occasioned by realizing sales by parties who had bought in anticipation of peace. In the anthracite coal miners,. strike, the order directing the engineers, firemen and pumpmen to cease work on Monday, June 2, was pretty genera)]y obeyed, but the companies were nevertheless able for the most part to prevent the extensive flooding of th-e mines-  RETROSPECT. which was s0 much fear ed. Later the non-union fire bosses went out rn considerable numbers. Fmallv on June 18 Pre~iden t l\I itchell called a national convention for July 17 of all the miners in the count, y. both bituminou ' al)fl anthracite, belongin g to the United Mine Workers, to dt>termine whether the bituminous miners should join m the strike. One incider t of the month was the inve~tigation inf:!tituted by Carroll D. Wright, United States Ccmmissioner of Labor, at the request of President Roosevelt. The bituminous coal miners' strike in Virginia and West Virginia took place June 7th as agreed upon. Some other labor difficulties were also noted; in Paterson, N. J., a strike among the silk dyers led to such activity on the part of the anarchists tbat the military had to be called out; in Pawtucket, Rhode Island, a strike of the street-car employes necessitated the employment of troops, and in Chicago a strike among the packing-house teamsters was accompanied by seriom riots. The United States Steel Corporation made an advance of 10 per cent in wages. The strike situation at the mills of the American Woolen Co. improved. The ccronation of King Edward, which bad been set for June 26 irnd for which elaborate preparations were being made, h;1d to be postponed when the time came, owing to the sudden illness of the Kmg, necessitating an operation. The outlook for the crops continued good. The Agricultural Departmen~ made the condition of oats June 1 9U·6, spring wheat 95·4 and winter whe$1.t 76·1. Print cloths dropped from 3¾ to 3 cents. · The U S. Government absorbed $1.3,195,613 more money from the channels of trade- this though Government deposits in banks were further increased $1,624 5 14_ The House of Representatives killed the Corliss Pacific Cable bill. The Senate substituted the Spooner Isthmian Canal bill for the Hepburn bill, received from the House the previous January. This substitute was accepted by the Home. It provides for the construction of the canal by the Panama route, if matters of title and treaty rights can be arranged, and the payment of 40 million dollars for the property or the Panama Canal Co.; also the issue of 180 million 2 p. c. bonds. President Roosevelt sent a special messa.ge to Congress urging a reduction in tariff duties on Cuban imports into the United Rtatt=>s, but this did not avail to secure the passage of th.B Cuban Reciprocity bill by the Senate. An Irrigation bill. providing for the creation of a Reclamation Fund from sales of public lands, to be used for the construct10n and maintenance of irrigation works, became a law. The House of Representatives June 26 passed its own Philippine Civil Government bill in place of that received from the Senate. The matter then went to Conference Committee, and a compromise measure became a law the next month; one of the elements of compromise was that the Senate receded from its provision for the coinage of a Philippine silver dollar and the House receded from its provision for the establishment of the gold standard. The House amended the Sf-Ilate bill for the Protection of Presidents of the United State by inserting antianarchy provisions. The substitute measure, however, d1d not become a law. The Waldeck-Rousseau Cabinet in France resigned, and was succeeded by M. Com bes as Premier. 'I he Massachusetts Legislature passed a bill allowing savings banks to invest in street railway bonds under certain well-defined restrictions. 1' Lit, ou<t E'i:en ts and .stock E..cchwngP.

Chic. & East. lll. com. eDjoyed a sens~t1onal rise, touching 195 on the 30th, as against 159½ on the 12th, the reason for which appeared next month, when the road passed to the control of the St. Louis & San Francisco. Illinois Central advanced from 150 June 5 to 161½ June 30; announcement was made of a proposed increase in stock from $79,200,000 to $115,040,000, with the privilege to the shareholders to take the additional stock at par.

The announcement came that the Pennsylvania RR. bad concluded to make a contract with the Postal Telt=>graph Cable Co., giving the latter the use of the lines of the Pennsylvania system to replace the Western Union. Extra dividends of 1 p. c. were declared on both com. and pref. shares of Chic. & North West., raising rate to 7 and 8 per annum respectively. The dividend rate on St. Paul& Omaha was also increased. The New York Central and Pennsylvania both put on a twenty-hour train to Chicago, the best previous time having been twenty-four hours. An agreement was reached between the Pacific Mail Steamship and the Panama RR. for a resumption of the traffic rdation s which were terminated in December, 1900. The Atlantic Coast Line RR. authorized a new mortgage for $80,000,000, of which about $31,LOO,OOO were issued. Vice-Chancellor Emery at Newark made permanent the injunction in the Berger suit against the U. S.

There was a sharp decline in French exchange on London the latter part of the month, which seemed to render possible shipments of gold from this side, but no engagements of the metal were made. The strength of our market followed in part from a demand to remit for interest due July 1 on American railroad bonds held abroad. There were considerable offerings of long sterling sold speculatively in expectation of covering ,,. t a protit later in tbe se8son, butt hese bills were put out so as to avoid depression in rates.

June 30.  JULY.-Current Events.-Congress adjourned July 1. The general convention of the United Mine Workers held July 17th decided tha.t the strike of the anthracite miners should not be extended to the bituminous fields, but that instead the bituminous miners should give pecuniary aid to the anthracite strikers. The strikers resisted attempts to resume work at the anthracite mines; at Shenandoah. Pa., riots and bloodshed ensued, and July 30 Gov. Stone of Pennsylvania was obliged to send State troops to the scene. The soft-coal strike in Virginia and West Virginia seriously affected the Chernpeake & Ohio, but the Norfolk & Western sutfered less and less. There was also at one time the prospect of serious labor troubles at Chicago, the freight handlers employed by the twenty-four raih'oads entering that city having gone on strike and the ieamsters having gone out in sympathy. For several days the freight movement in and out of Chicago was almost completely tied up. The trouble was brought to a close on the 16th, when the strikers voted almost unanimously to return to work . leaving the wage scale and other questions in dispute to be settled bt-tween the men and their respective roads. The American Smelting & Rt=>fining Co. July 8 opened its smelting plant near Helena, Mont., which had been closed by a. strike since May 1. Crop indications continued highly encouraging. The Agricultural Bureau made the condition of corn July 1st 87·5, with an additional area of 3,520,000 acres; of oats, 92·1; and there was no serious impairment of these prospects during the month.• Taking advantagA of the prevailing short supply (following the previous season's deficient harvests), a corner in July contracts for corn was engineered at Chicago. The movement was credited to Harris, Gates & Co. July 8th the price touched 90 aents, or nearly 15 cents above the price for wheat in the same market, and comparing with 69½ cents, the New York price for corn on the day mentioned. The high level of values had the effect of attractmg unexpectedly large suppliPs of corn towards Chicago, some re-shipments from the East even being noted. On the 15th the price suddenly dropped from 81 to 65¾ , and towards the close of the month these July contracts at Chicago were as low as 55 cents. There was also a squeeze in oats at Chi-. cago ; wet weather retarded deliveries from the new crop, thus facilitating the squeeze, interior shippers having sold in expectation of an ordinary July movement. The price of new grade oats in.that market on the 25th touched 72 cents, the September option on the same day being only 34¾; at the close Chicago quoted July oats at 64 cents. In this market. also, the price for cash oats touched high figures, No. 2 mixed selling up from 55½ July 1 to 64¾ July 25 and the close July 31 being 64½ cents. This squeeze in oats led to the issuing of injunctions and extensive litigation. The course of whPat prices was downward and September wheat in New York declined from 79½ July 1 to 74% July 31. President Roosevelt issued a proclamation· granting full amnesty to the Filipinos who bad been in insurrrection against the United States. Complete civil control was established, the office of Military Governor in the archipelago being terminated. Judge Taft, Governor of the islands, on his way to Manila, stopped at Rome and began negotiations with the Vatican with reference to the withdrawal of the friars from the islands. No conclusion was reached. A treaty of trade, commerce and amity between the United States and Spain was signed at Madrid July 3. M. Rouvier, the new French Finance Minister, arranged a plan for converting 6,789,000,000 francs 3½ per cent  20  RETROSPECT.  rentes into 3 per cents. In China the Cu inese Government fo rmally abolished the likin tax throughout the empire. The Marquis of ~alisbury resigned as Prime Minis ter of Great Britia n and was succeeded by the Right Hon. A. J. Balfour. The contract for building the Brooklyn tunnel w ent to the Belmont-McDonald people (the Rapid Transit Construction Co.). who are building the underground rapid transit road on l\Ianhattan l sland, they having put in a .b1d at much less than the cost of doing the work, namely $2,000,000, with SU •00,000 additional for terminals. Adolph S. Ochs, principal owner of the "New York Times" and of several other newspapers, purchased the "Philadelphia. Public Ledger." RailrotLa Everds and Stock Excharige Matters.-Considerable buoyancy pre.ailed on the Stock Exchange, followed by a reaction of several points at the close. Dealings increased, the sales aggregating 16,352,231 shares. Atchison common 1·ose from t-1 .% July 1 to 94½ July 26, Missouri Pacific from 108½ July 3 to 119½ July 31, Ches. & Ohio from 46¾ July 1 to fl7% July 18, Milwaukee & St .

Amer. Sugar Refining common from 124½ to 134½ , Col. Fuel & Iron common from 88¼ to 102¼ . Chic. & East Ill. common further advanced from 194½ to 220¾ , and the news came that the St. Louis & San Francisco had arranged to take over; .1e property, giving 250 in its 4 p. c. stock trust certificate~,. or 100 of East Ill. common and 150 for 100 of pref. St. - ,..,ouis & San Francisco common advanced from 68 to 85½. .Jbw. R. I. & Pac. jumped from 172½ to 200¼, the latter, too, being ex-rights to take new stock at par, which rights sold at 9'al 13¼ , It then appeared that arrange ments were contemplated for exchanging the stock on the basis of $270 of new securities for $100 stock; the "Rock Island Company" was incorporated with $150,000,000 capital for the purpose of carrying out this scheme. The plan was not favorably received by the market, and was partly the cause of the sharp downward reaction throughout the lis ~ at the close; the large gold exports, however , on the 29th and 31st contributed to the same end. In Col. Fuel & Iron a contest for control between John W . Gates and the Osgood management developed, attendPd later by some picturesque features. The Mexican Central brought, out an issue of $LO,000,000 collateral trust 4½ s. Union Pacific shareholders were given the right to subscribe to $31 ,000,000 Oregon Short Line 4 p. c. and Participating bonds . secured by deposit of Northern Securities stock. The Atlanttc Coast Line RR. increased its semi-annual dividend from 1½ to 2 p. c. The Huntingdon & Broad Top Mt. RR. & Coal paid 3½ on its pref., against 2½ the previous January. A receiver was appointed for Bay ~tate Gas. The Money Market.-Call loans on the Exchange at times touched 6@7 early in July. One feature was a drain to Chicago in connection with the corner in corn at that centre. After the 8th, however, the rate did not get above 4. The gold outflow the latter part of t he month was w ithout much effect, and call money July 31 was 2½@3. Surplus reserves dropped to $10,084.725 July 5, but r ecovered and were $15,709,275 J uly 19 and $15, D02,400 Jul y 26, declining to $13,738,125 Aug 2. Money hulding s fell off from $·3!)1,935,'700 June 28 to $247,776,400July 12~ then rnse, being $253,024,600 Aug. 2. A noteworthy expansion in loans occurred in the week ending July 5, bringing the total up from $893,871 ,800 to $910,883.200. This was attributed to operations connected with the increase of the capital of the National City Bank from $10,000,000 to $25,000,000 and its surplus from $7,500,000 to $15,000.000, Loans then dropped to $903,327,300 July 19, but advarced again, being $919,671.600 Aug. 2. Deposits rose to $958,647,500 July 5, decreased to $940,692,900 July 19 and rose to $957,145,500 Aug 2. Time money July 31 was 4½ for ninety days ~and 4¾@5 for four to six months; paper was 4½@4¾ for double names and 4¾@5 for prime single names and 5½@6 for good. Foreign Exchange, S1lver, Etc.-The continued strength of exchange led to gold exports, the first shipment being July 22, the gold having been engaged the day before. Further amounts were shipped on the 24th, the 29th and the 81st, making the total outflow from this port for Europe $7,459,676. Exchange rates fluctuated considerably, but within narrow limits, remaining high all the time. The close July 31 was at 4 8545@4 8555 for long, 4 8785~4 8795 for short and 4 8825@4 8835 for cable transfers. There were considerable offerings of bills against, cotton deliverable in September and October. Open market discounts tended lower at the Continental centres, being 2¼ ,July 31 at Paris and 1% at Berlin and .Frankfort. The rate at London after some tlnctuations closed at 2 9-16@2.%, The price of silver in London further improved and was 24 7-16d. July 31. 1  AUGUST.-Current Events.-The strikers in the anthracite regions manifested an ugly temper, and the militia regiments at the scene of the trouble were frequently called upon to protf>ct the few non-union men at work at the culm banks or collieries. Mr. J.P. Morgan returned home after an extensive sojourn in Europe, but could not be induced to interfere on be ha lf of the strikers. An interv iew with Mr. Abram "-. H e wiLt , published in the papers of the 26th, in which he declared that the points contended for by the miners' organization would, if conceded, take ~way the right in-   https://fraser.stlouisfed.org Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis  berentin every individual to sell his laber in a free market, attraoted a great deal of attention. The strike in the West Virginia bituminous districts also continued, involving much loss to the Cuesapeake & Ohio, but not to the Norfolk: & Western, which reported large increases in earnings. Crop conditions continued eminently satisfactory and all the indications pointed to the largest crops of corn and oats on record, with the wheat yield also satisfactory. The Agricultural Department at Washington made the condition of corn Aug. 1 86·5 and ~ept. 1 84·3, this comparing with 51·7 ~ept. 1 of previous year; aod of oats at harvest 87 2 Sept. 1, 1902, against 72·1 Sept. 1, 1901. Supplies of both cereals, however, were small, and after an early decline attempts on the part of short sellers to cover led to a sharp upward movementi particularly in the near-by deliveries. September corn in New York sold down from 61½ Aug. 1 to 55½ Aug, 11, then advanced to 66¼ Aug. 25, closmg the month at 64¼. September oats in Chica.go were 32¼ Ang. 1st, 29 Aug. 11th, 34% Aug. 21, and closed at 34½ , The U. S, Treasury again absorbed money from the banks, its holdings of cash rising from $309,335,086 Aug. 1 to $317,734,602 :--ept. 1. Suggestions came from Washington that the banks borrow U. ~- bonds and take out additional circulation. Sensational developments occurred in the suit of Peter Power against the Northern Paci6c Co., his counsel, George Alfred Lamb, being called upon to answer a charge ot grossly unprofessional conduct, and Power himself being committed to jail for contempt of court; much information was disclosed as to the parties bPhind the suit. The delayed coronation of King Edward VU. took place Aug. 9. On the application of J.P. Morgan & Co., August, Belmont & Co .. the National City Bank and Barini;, Magoun & Co., the New York 8tock Exchange listed 2,310,000, 00 roubles of 4 p. c. rentes :of the Imperial Russian Government. There was nothing, however, to indicate any extensive holdings in this country. The presidents of the Northern Pacific, the Great Northern and the Oregon Railroad & Nav-igation Co. had a conference with the farmers of Eastern Washington, the outcome of which was a 10 p. o. reduction in rates on wheat shipments to Pacific Coast terminals, and also on shipmPnts east-bound to Minneapolis, Duluth and-Chicago; later, Mr. Hill also announced a 10 p. c. reduction in grain rates in the Dakotas and Minnesota. Considerable discussion was aroused by the action of the Cuban Senate in authorizing a loan for $35,000,000 (the bill -passed the other Cuban House in September), it being claimed that this loan would be in contravention of the terms imposed by the U. 8. Congress in defining the relations between the United States and Cuba. The Board of Tax: Commissioners of New York City announced that it was the intention hereafter to assess real estate in the city at its estimated full value, instead of the prevailing two-thirds rate. Another volcanic eruption occurred on Mont Pelee. Island of Martinique, Aug. 30, resulting in the loss of over 1,000 more lives. The British Post Office announced that, beginning Sept. 1, it would accept parcels for transmission to the United ~tates, it having made arrangements with the American Express Co. for the delivery of the parcels in this country; various attempts had previously bee n made to conclude a p1.rcels post arrangement with the United States Government, but without success. Railroad Events and Stock Exchange Matte1·a.-Growing anim .. tion was manifested on the Stock Exchange. despite the continuance of the coal strike and the increasing firmness of the money m -4 rket. Stock trans -w tions r t- ached 14,314,627 8hares, and prices sharply advanced. Balt. & Ohio common mo , ed up from 108¾ to 115:4 , Ca l} adian Pacific fro:qi 135¾ to 143, Atchison common fro 1.a 91 to 95¾ , Illinois Central from 164 to 173½, Louisville & NashvilJe from 144 to 159½, Pennsylvania from 158½ to 163¼ , G reat Northern from 191 to 198, Western Union Tel. from 87¼ to 97½, the high pomts being reached towards the close of the month; the advance, however, not being fully maintained in all cases. Low-priced shares were unusually conspicoous in thP speculation, Duluth South Shore & Atlantic common rising from 17 to 24, "Soo" common from 6·~½ to 79½, Norfolk & Western common from 64:¼ to 73¾, Reading common from 66% to 70½, S outhern Pacific from 6',1/s to 77½. Toledo St. Louis & Western common from 21½ tv 32½, &o. Another feature was the express stocks on rumors of plans for community of interest management; American Express leaped from 234:½ to 265, United Sta 1es from 122 to -160, Wells, Fargo & Co. from 215 to 255 and Adams Express from 205 to 220. In Col. Fuel & Iron sensational :fluctuations oc• curred, due to the contest for control between the Osgood man11 gemeot and the John W. Gatas party; the stock dropped from 93 to 73¾, closing at 82½. The Central of Georgia divid.. , nd (annual) on the 1st preference incomes was lowered from 5 to 3 p. c. Colorado & Southern Rwy. semi-annual payment on 1st preferred stock .was raised from 1½ to 2 p. c. Action on the dividend on Southern Rail way pref. was deferred, so as to allow shareholders to determine whether the voting trust should be continued. The semi-annual dividend on Reading 1st pref erred was reduced from 2 p.c. to 1 p.c., continuing the voting trul'l t in tha · case, which would have expired on another payment at thP- old figure. Persistent rumors that President Schwabof the United ~tatesS teel Cor , oration was to resign on account of 111 health were denied by Mr. Schwab himself be fore his dµparture for Europe. The Chic. Gt. Western made special five-year contracts.with the packing companies at low rates.  RETROSPECT. l'he Money M,irk~t. -Money became increasingly dea.r in August. Loans ran up from $913.294,500 July 26 to $929,148,000 Aug. 16, with an increase in deposits from $952,097,200 to $96 -),246,000, while money holdings dropped from . 253,526 ,700 to $247,188,100 between same dates. Rurplus reserves were thus pulled down from $15,502,400 July 26 to -$7,126,600 Aug. 16. Vigorous contraction of loans was then enforced and by Aug. 30 the amount had been reduced from $929,148,000 to 910,040,000 , while deposits fell from $960,246,000 to $935.998,500. Accordingly surplus reserves were raised from $7,126.600 Aug. 16 to $9,742.775 Aug. 30,notwith·standing money holdings further declined from $247,188,100 to $243,742,400, owing to Treasury withdrawals and shipments to the interior. Ca11 loans at the Exchange touched 6 Aug. 15 (when 45 p. c.of the 31 millions Oregon Short Line oonds fell due)and were4@5½ Aug. 29-the Stock Exchange being closed Saturday Aug. 30. Time loans were hi1?her all around, namely 5 for sixty to ninety days and 5~5½ for four to six months. Rates for paper were 5 for double names and 5@5½ for prime and 5½@6 for good single names. . Fnrei9n E..cchange, Silver. &c.-Sterling exchange sharply declined, c losing Aug. 30 at the lowest figures. A shipment of $519,445 gold to Germany on the 'ith, to meet an urgent demand for the metal at Vienna, brought the gold ou fl,,w to an end. A million rlollars gold went to South America on special order The first impelling cause of the decline in ,exchange was the arlvance in money at this centre, this leading to liberal offerings of loan bills. Sales of drafts against future shipments of cotton were also noted. At one time offerings of bills against foreign subscriptions for the 31,000,000 Oregon Short Line bonds of the Union Pacific were likewh,e in evidence. Rates closi>d Aug. 30 (the 31st being Sunday) at 4 8375@4 84 for long, 4 8650@4 8675 for sight and 4 e690@4 8710 for cable transfers. Except at Paris, where the quotation Aug. 30 was l¾@l ½ . the tendency of open market discount rates in Europe was upward. At London lhe figure Aug. 30 was 2¾·a 2½ and at Berlin and Frankfort l¾tal ½, Silver in London ranged between 241/sd, and 24 7-16d., closing 24 3-16d.  SEPTEMBER -CurrP.nt Events - Monetary stringency made mcessary active relief measures hy the Treasury. 'The Secretary wa-1 driven from one expedient to another in bis -efforts to get back into the banks .s ome of the m?ney which Governmet t operations were taking from them. Ca~h in l:,ub-Treasuries Sept. 1 was $317,734,602, against $290,738 811 on Feb. 1, "'hen Mr. Shaw assumed office-this, notwithstanding Ooveroment deposits in the bank& between the same datfs bad been raised from ~112,578,621 to $125,382,170. Tbe banks now beiog obliged to meet the autumn demand for currency to move the crops - which crops had proved ex ceptionally abundant-the sitaation became very urgent. On the 13th the Secretary sent out notices to such national banks throughout the country a s he found held •'free" bonds-that is, rot pledged as security for public deposits or bank circulation-that if they would forward their bonds to the Treasu¼·er in sums of $50,000 he would designate them temporary public depositaries and place Government deposits with them to the par of the bonds. It was estimated at the time that this would release $4,000,000 of Treasury -caeh. He also decided to anticipate the October interest on Government bonds, amounting to about $4,500,000. But these measures provPd inadequate. On tlept. 20 the N. Y. Clearin~ Bouse banks showed a deficiency ($1,642.0n0) in Teserve for the first time since Nov., 1899. Sept. 25 the ,..,eci°etary jgsued a circular offering to pre·pay, beginnin~ Oc . 1, the interest maturing on Government bonds after Oct. 1 up to and including July 1, 1903. at a rebate of two-tenths of one p. c. per mo th th., offer to remain open until N v. ~0, :1902. Sept. 26 notice was Riven that he would purchase on or before Oct 15 at 105 flat U. S. 5 p. c. bonds of 1904-of which, however, only $t9,410,350 were outstanding Sept. 1. The price failed to attract any bonds in September and only $25,300 the next month. The Clearing Rous" banks mai:le a greatly improved showing ~ept. 27, reporting 83,236,625 surplus reserve, but Monday, Sept. 29, call money a ovanced to '35 p. c , and prices on the Stock Exchange utterly collapsed. It was then that more comprehensive measures of relief were determined upon. After the close of business that ,day the Secretary announced that he would allow tbe sub·stitution of bonds other than U. S. bonds for part of the 2 per cents held as security for Goverament deposits, taking ·the same general class of municipal bonds as those permissible as investments for savings banks in the several States, ,e ach case to be considered by itself. The New York Savings Bank law was later adopted as the standard, and next month (Oct. 23) the Treasury committee in charge decided to accept the uncontested bonds of any city of any State the ,debt of which (exclusive of water debts and smking funds) was less than 7 p. c. of tbe city's assessed valuation. The ~ubstitution was to be permitted only on condition that the U. S. hoods thus released should be made the basis of new bank note circulation. It was also announced that, banks would no longer be required to carry any cash reserve agarnst Government deposits secured by U.S. bonds. amounting then to about 130 million dollars, of which 40 millions at New York. The efforts to increase the dt>posi ts in the ban ks were measurably successful, the total Oct. 1 being $133,932,197, against 125,382,170 Sept. 1, but this did not prevent a.further accumulation of cash in Sub-Treas-   https://fraser.stlouisfed.org Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis  21  uries, which was reported $324,718,483 Oct. 1 against $317,7:-34,602 Sept. 1. The report of the Agricultural Bureau at Washington confirmed the expectations of a. very large yield of corn and oats, but made a lugubrious showmg as to cotton -this latter, however, not being credited. An active speculation was carried on in the staplfi, but the spot price ol middling uplands in New York Sept. 30 was 8½ cents, against 91/s cents ~ept. 4. Print cloths remained unchanged at 3 cents for regular sizes but wide makes occasionally ruled higher. A sq oeeze in ~eptember contni.cls carried the price of wheat at Ubicago to 95 cents ::-ept. 30, the price of the October option being only about 69 cents. On frost scares and reports of wet weather, cas11 corn in New York sold above 71 cents, but the close was at 68 cents. President Roosevelt met with an accident on tbe 3d at Pittsfield, Mass., where a trolley car collided with his carriage. killing a secret service agent who had accompanied him on his travelm~ tonr. At first no ill effects were felt and he resumed bis journey, making 1-peeches on the "trust" question, but after an address at Indianapolis on the 23d the t>Udden announcement came that an operation for an abscess on the leg had become necessary and that the rest or his trip through the West would be abandoned. A second operation bad to be performed Sunday, Rept. 28. Neither was regarded as serious. The anthracite coal strike continued. ::--enators Quay and Penrose of Pennsylvania came to this city and ~reat political pressure was brought to bear upon the operators, but without result ; acts of violence multiplied and more troops had to be ca1led out. In the bituminous coal miners' strike in West Virginia a settlement was reached with the comparatively few men still out along the Norfolk & Western; otherwise there was no break. There was continued liquidation in English consols by those who had bought in expectation of a sharp rise (which failed te come) after the close of the ~outh African war; the price Hept. 30 was only 93 3-16x: against 94 3-16 Aug. 30. Seer tary of State Hay sent a note to the signatory Powers of the Treaty of Berlin of 1878 with reference to the treatment of the Jews in Roumania which attracted a great deal of ::i.tt ntion. Tbe Inte ·national Court of Arbitration at the Hague on the 15th held its tirst sitting. hearmg the claim of the United :-,tates against Mexico growing out of the Pious li'und of California; the Court the next month rendered a decis10n in favor of the United States in the sum of 81.420,682 in Mexican currency (being $43,051 per anou 11 from Feb. 2, 1869, to Feb. 2. 1902) and $-!3,061 yearly forever thereafter. Forest fires, said to be the most appalling ever known, devastated whole sections in the Northwest of Oregon and the ::5outhwest of the State of ·washington, finally extending all the way to British Columbia; dense v lumes of smoke envtloped wide areas in darkness, many liv, s were lost and millions of feet of timber deistroyed. Quite a sensation was occasioned in political circles by tbe action of David B. f:lenderson, Speaker of the House of Repr,..sentatives of the U. S. Congress, m declining to accept a renomination for Congress, because he felt he did not represent the views of his constituents, who seemed to be largely in favor of tariff revision. R i1lroa11, Event,<1. a ri d 8tDck Exchar,gP. Matters.-The high money rates and calling of loans by the banks induced extensive liquidation in the stock market, which was weak a 'most tbe whole of the last half of the month. On the 29th, on the advance in call money to 35 p. c ., and the news of a second operation the day before on President Roosevelt's leg, together with a heavy fall in Louisville & Nashville, occasioned by fears that minority holders of the stock would not be included in the provisions for the majority stock, the downward movement reached its climax in the most severe break in prices experienced since the May panic of 1001, and the situation was exceedingly grave. Fortunately the turtber relief measures proposed by the Eecretarv of the Treasury and announced in the papers the next morning had the effect of restoring confidence, so the tone of the market Sept. 30 was completely changed, resulting in an upward reaction almost as pronounced as the previous day's drop. The continuance of the anthracite coal miners' strike had its influeace in intensifying depression the latter part of the month, though previously having been almost ignored. The sales aggregated 20,\J72,253 shares. Milwaukee & St. Paul common, which had been exceptionally strong up to the 20th, when it sold at 198¾, dropped to 183½ on the 29th. Generally high prices were from the 3d to the 10th; the lowest on the 29th. Louisville & Nashville declined from 1561/s to 187¼, Illinois Central from 173½ to 147 (the latter ex rights worth about 11 J, Reading common from 78½ to 64, Missouri Pacific from 125½ to 1111/s, New York Central from 1671/s to 155, Pennsylvania from 170 to 159, etc., etc. The recovery ~ept. 30 amounted to several points. An announcement wa'J made that a majority of Southern Rail way stock had a~8ented to an extension of the voting trust; the deferred dividend on the pref. shares was declared early the next month. The Court of Errors and Appeals m New Jersey decided in favor of the United ' tates Steel Corporation in the Berger suit to 10strain the conversion of $200,ono,ooo preferred tock into bonds. Concessions in favor of New York were secu ed from the railroads on cotton shipments from the south destin d for New England and for export; in Nov. the Morgan and Ma1lory lines also allowed re-shipping privileges. The • hie.Mil. & ::--t, Paul increased tho semi-annual dividend on its common stock from 3 to 3½ p. c. and paid ½ p. c. extra to make 7 for the year. The Bait. & Ohio announced an increase of $25,0  22  RETROSPECT.  000,000 common stock, and offered the same, together with $17,500,000 treasury stock, to the shareholders at par. Canadian Pacific listed $19,500,uOO additional stock. The Money Mar11et.- Severe stringency developed. The successive steps taken by the Secretary of the Treasury with the view to relieving the banks from the Treasury drain are detailed above. Except for the sentimental effect produced by the last series of moves, announced in the morning papers Sept. 30, which caused a sharp downward turn in rates on that day, the situation remained wholly unrelieved, the Government holding seven millions more cash Oct. 1 than Sept. 1. T.be banks were obliged rigidly to curtail accommodations to borrowers, and their loans ~ept. 27 were only $874,181,800, agRinst $910,040,000 Aug. 30. Deposits decreased from $935,988,500 to $876,519,100. Money holdings fell from $243,742,400 Aug. 30 to $220,575,700 Sept. 20, and the banks then were $1,642!050 below the required reserve. The next Saturday (Sept. 27) money holdings recovered to $222,366,40.:> and the banks again reported a surplus- $3,236,625. On call at the Stock Exchange H), 15 and even 20 and 25 p. c. was paid for money as the month advanced; the average was 6 the first week, 8 the second, 10 the third and 16 the week ending Sept. 26. On Monday, the 29th, notwithstanding the better bank statement, as high as 35 p. c. had to be paid. On Sept. 30, with confidence revived by the new plans of relief proposed bv the Secretary of the Treasury, the maximum was 18, with some loans at 3-an d the close at 4. Time loans were hard to get the latter part of the month, and generally a commission of from onequarter of 1 p. c. to 1 p. c. bad to be paid in addition to the rate of 6 p. c. Commercial paper was practically unsalable. Foreign Exchange, Silver, Etc.-Foreign exchange was under the influence of the monetary tension the first half of September, and rates dropped; about the middle of the ..o.onth engagements of gold for import from Europe were announced after a movement of the metal had previously been started from Australia for San Francisco. Only about $4250,000, however, was taken in Europe, including $2,50(),000 ef t;outh African gold in transit to London, which the National City Bank had intercepted. It was estimated that about 8½ millions altogether was afloat for the United States from Australia and Europe; of this only $2,850,000 arrived during the month. The price of gold bars in London was advanced, and open market discounts rose sharply at all the European centree, being Sept. 30 3½@3.% at London (the Bank of England minimum remaining- at 13), 2¾ at Berlin and Frankfort and 21/s at Paris. The lowest figures for sight bills and cable transfers were reached Sept. 15, namely 4 8525@4 8550 and 4 86@4 8615. Sixty-day bills were lowest ~ept. 25. 4 8jl0@4 8225. t--ept. 3Q rates were 4 8256@ 4 8265, 4 8565la4 8575 and 4 8625@4 8640 for the three classes of bills. Silver in London weakened, decliningfrom243-16d. Aug. 30 to 23 9-16d. Eept. 30. OCTOBER.-Current Evenfs.-An agreement was reached with the striking anthracite miners, closing this great labor struggle, which had lasted since May 12. The early part of the month, owing to the great increase of violence at the mines, the Governor of Pennsylvania found it necessary to add to the troops at the mines by calling out the whole of the State militia-10,000 men. At this time the outlook appeared decidedly gloomy. President Roosevelt had called the railroa<l presidents and the mine-workers' representatives to Washmgton in an effort to effect a settlement, and had faiied. He had then urged President Mitchell to secure the immediate return of the men to work, in cons derat1on for which the President was to appoint a committee of investigation and to use his influence to get Congress to enforce its .recommendations. This appeal, too, had proven abortive. Coal sold at $25 a ton at retail, very little being obtainable even at that figure. But on Monday Oct. 13, late at night, Mr. J. P. Morgan journeyed to Washington, and on behalf of the coal companies laid a statement before President Rooeevelt signifying the willingness of the companies to submit the questions at issue to the determination of a commission of five men, each of the five to possess certain d1stmct and specifically named qualifications. This proposition. somewhat modified at the hands of the President, was later accepted by President Mitchell of the United Mine Workers, subject to the approval of a convention of the mine workers which he called for Monday Oct. 20 at Wilkesbarre, Ba. The convention lasted two days and by a unanimous vote gave adhesion to the scheme. Mining was resumed Thursday morning Oct. 23, The Commission named consisted of George Gray, as a Judge of the United States Court; E.W. Parker, as an expert mining engineer; Thomas H. Watkins, as a man practically acquainted with the mining and selling of coal: Brig.-Gen. John M. Wilson, United States Army, as an officer of the Engineer Corps of the U. S.; and E. E. Clark, Grand Chief of the Order of Railway Conductors, as a sociologist, the President stretching the meaning of the term "sociologist" so as to make room for a reprt>sentative of labor. The President likewise added two other members-Bishop John L. Spalding of Peoria, Ill., and Carroll D. Wright, U. S. Commi83iener ot Labor. In West Virginia several thousand bituminous miners in the Kanawha district, on strike since June 7, returned to work on Oct. 6 on terms proposed by the operators soon after the strike had begun and then rejected, namely a 9-hour day, pay every two weeks and the right of miners to organize. Ta enable American manufacturers to secure certain large   https://fraser.stlouisfed.org Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis  orders for tin plates formerly placed with WeJsh manufacturers, the Amalgamated Assooiation of Iron, Steel & Tin Workers, after months of controversy, finally agreed to a reduction in wages of tin workers on such orders. An incident early in the month growing out of the anthracite strike was a strike at tbe mines of the Tenn. Coal & Iron Co. in Alabama because the company refused to collect. assessments made for the anthracite strikers from those miners who opposed paying the same. Labor difficulties-. developed in E1:1.rope. too. ln France the National Committee of the French Miners' Federation (estimated to comprise 60,000 out of 162,000 French minerst declared a general ~trike; riots resulted. In Belgium the miners made a demand for 15 p. c. advance in wages. In this country several street car strikes, particularly one at New Orl@ans and another on the Hudson Valley electric road in this State, developed serious features. The Secretary of the Treasury,. in order to reduce his money holdings, was finally obliged to buy bonds on an extensive scale. On the 13th, while in New York, he opened negotiations with a syndicate o~ b3,nkers c•mposed of the National City Bank, Farson, Leach & Co., Harvey Fisk & Sons, Fisk & Robinson and Vermilya& Co. ior the sale to the Treasury of a large block of 4 per cents of 1925. On the 17th a circular was issuelll announcing that t}Ie Treasury Department would purchase these bonds at. 137¾ and interest to date of purchase; $8,253,400 face vakJ.& was immediately turned in at the Sub-Treasury here on that day, involving the disbursement of $11,293,789, all but. $26,000 of which was paid over the counter of the SubTreasury, having an immediate effect in easin!? the money market. At this and other Sub-Treasuries tbe Secretary purchased altogether during the month $15,675,250 4s, paying therefor $21,695,311. On the 18th be also ordered the prepayment (without rebate) of the interest due Nov. 1 on the public debt, amounting to about $2,160,000. He likewise increased Government deposits in the banks from $133,932,197 to $146,885,013. In these ways he reduced his money holdings from $324,718,483 Oct. 1 to $294,466,478 Nov. 1. Through U. S. bonds relieved by the substitution of municipal bonds for Government bonds held as security for U.S. deposits,. national bank circulation was heavily increased, the net addition to the amount of hank notes afloat on bonds havlng been $11,940,045. There were also considerabl-i arrivals of gold from Australia and the Yukon From the monthly Government figures it appears that the aggregate or money of all kinds in circulation was added to no less ttan $60,425,341 during the month. There was a revival of demaod for print cloths, but the price remained at 3 cents, at which figure Mr. M. C. D. Borden purchased 250,000 pieces. The upper house of the Danish Rigsdag (the Landsthing) by a tie voteon Oct. 22 refused to ratify the treaty for the sale of theDanish West Indies to the United States; the treaty had been re-submitted to the new Parliament, as the previous Parliament had insisted upon a plebiscite of the inhabitants of the island on the matter. The coffee zone of GuatPmala was devastated by the rnlcanic eruption of Santa Maria. The corner stone of the new Custom House building in this city, at Bowling Green, was laid Oct. 7 with suitable ceremonies. The International Mercantile Marine Co. Mr. J.P. Morgan's shipping combination-was organized Oct. 1. Railroao .Events and ()tock Excha1,ge Matttrs.-The stock market did not regain tone. It was very weak the fore part of the month, the low point as a rule being reached on Oct. 13, on the evening ()f which day Mr. J.P. Morgan went to Washington on behalf of the coal companies. The coal settlement and the easing of the money markPt then caused a sharp upward turn, but this was soon succeeded by a dwindling in the volume of business and a steady sagging of prices, with renewed breaks in certain stocks. '! here was a recrudescence of labor troubles throughout. the country, and there were also fears lest the outcome of the miners' strikemight lead to new demands upon the part of labor in other industries. The high rates for foreign exchange were likewise a disturbing: influence, and there was a disposition, too. to await the result of the November elections, which involved the election of a House of Representatives for the next Congress. Sales on the Exchange aggregated 16,361,12~ shares, but dealings at the close were small. Milwaukee & St. l'aul common sold down from 196½ Oct. 3 to 180¼ Oct. 13, closing Oct. 31 at 189¾, Canadian Pacific sold at 139½0ct. 1, 129½ Oct. 13 and 1361/s Oct 31; Del. Lack. & West. 275 Oct. 1,255 Oct. 13, 258 Oct. 31; Reading common 73½ Oct. 1, 65 Oct. 31; New York Central 159 Oct. 2. 149¾' Oct. 13, 156 Oct. 31; Norfolk & Western common 80¾ Oct. 17, 691/s Oct. 13. 74¼ Oct. 31, etc., etc. The compl@tion of arrangements for the purchase of the Lomsville & Nashville by the Atlantic Coast Line RR. led to the filing of a sort of an omnibus bill of complaint with the Inter-State Commerce Commission by the Kentucky Railroad Commission directed against practically all the railroads in theSouth. The Peter Power suit against the Nvrthern Pacifio Ry. was dismissed Oct. 1 in the U. S. District Court at St. Paul. Milwaukee & St. Paul shareholders authorized 25 millions new common~stock, but nothing transpired as to when stock was to be put out. Union Pacific made a traffio • agreement with the Milwaukee & St. Paul, giving the latter the same facilities over the Ur ion Pacific and Central Pacifio to the Pacific Coast as enjoyed by any other company.

Fore1gn Exchange, Silver. &c.-Sterling e:xcbange ruled cJose to the gold-export point throughout the month. While rates fluctuated more or less (though within a narrow ranJ?e), the general tendency was upward.

Open market discount rates at the European centres worked higher and were 4 at London at the close (this being the Bank of England rate), at Pc1ris 3 and at Berlm and Frankfort 3½. We have referred above to the causes for the further decline in silver to the lowest point on record, namely 21 ll-16d.; the close was 2115-16d.  DECEMBER.-Current Events.-Monetary tension caused renewed liquidation on the Stock Exchange. The depression was intensified by unexp~cted developments in South America. Great Britain and Germany bad determined upon united action to enforce certain claims.agaiast Venezuela, and had given the Castro Government very short notice to comply with the demands made. ·when the Venezuelan Government failed to come to terms, the warships of the two Powers which had been sent to the scene seized and destroyed such of Venezuela's poor wa":r vt,ssels as were within sight and then undertook to enforce a blockade of tbe ports of the Republic. The two Powers were later joined by Italy, and most of the other European Governments also announced claims of one kind or another. For a time the situation looked very serious, but both the British and the German Governments agreed to submit the matter to arbitration. It was their desire that President Roosevelt should be the arbitrator, but the President was reluctant to act in that capacity, and the Internatioaal Court of Arbitration at The Hague was finally accepted. ln the money market also relief came. On the 15th, shortly after noon, when call loans were 10 per cent and serious stringency seemed imminent, it was announcfd that J. P. Morgan, James btillman, President of the National City Bank, and George F. Baker, President of the First National Bank, had formed a pool to loan $50,000,000 should emergency arise making such action necessary. J. P . .Morgan & Co., as alf?O the First National Bank, the National City Bank, the National Bank of Commerce, the Hanover National, the We~tern National, the Chase National and the National Park each subscribed $5 .000,00n, the Corn Exchange subscribed $2,500,000, the Chemical and the Bank of New York each a million, and various other banks smaller amounts. The pool was not called upon to loim any money, as the rates did not rise high enough to require action. The amount of cash in Sub-Treasuries was again increased. standing t303,587,153 December 31, against 8294,773,1:144 December 1. Owing to the good harvests and an increase in the supplies of cattle and hogs, the prices of meats in the West were reduced, The Federal Government removecl the quarantine against cattle from Connecticut became of the foot-and-mouth disease, but New York State still maintained a quarantine. The Inter-State Commerce Commission began another investigation, this time with reference to the proposed increase in rates following the general advances in wages. Lockwood, Hurd & Co., who failed the previous .May during the Webb-Meyer troubles. proposed a settlement with their creditors on the basis of 70 cents on the dollar. The United States t,teel Corporation purchased the Union and Sharon   https://fraser.stlouisfed.org Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis  plar:. 18 of the Unicn ft eel Company, and agreed to guarantee a $45,000,000 bond issue; the corporation at the close of the year also promulgated a very comprehensive profitsharing plan for its employes. A pension system was inaugurated on the Union and t outhern Pacific roads. A committee of the Ubamber of < ommerce at Hong Kong decided unanimously that it would be impossible to, introduce a gold standard in Hong Kong while China adheres to silver. The State of .Amazona~ in Br:1zil arraneed to place its debt on a gold baEJis, and offered £750,000 bonds for sale in this country. The trans-Pacific cable between the United States and Hawaii was completed •. The House of Representatives at Wasbindon atlopted an amendment to one of the appropriation bills appropriating S:500,000 to be used in enforcing the Anti-Trust law of 1890 •. The Pennsylvania Railroad received its tunnel franchise and so did the New York & Jersey RR. The New York Central's new plans for depressi:rig its tracks in this city were approved, with some modifications, by a special committee or the Hoard of Estimate and Apportionment. Ex -Speaker Reed died on the 7th. A consolidation of the Western National Bai.k of this city and the National Bank of the United States was arranged, the capital of the consolidated institution to be 10 milhon dollars. Rmlroaa Events ann Stock Exchange Matters.-Renewed and very severe liquidation occurred, but by the end of the month a complete transformation was etfected and the close was posith·ely buoyant. The early decline reached noteworthy proportions, and on the 12th and 15th large numbers of stocks touched the lowest points of tbe year. The market was in a state of semi-panic. The uncertainties regardmir the future of money, the complicatioris threatened by the joint action of Great Britain and Germany against Venezuela, and the fact that many of the pools in different stocks seemed to be carrying burdensome loads, were the depressing influences. Anxiety regarding the monetary situation, however, was relieved by the action narrated above, the Venezuelan imbroglio eventuated satisfactorily, and the great brtak in prices brought no failures or disasters, indicating a very strong situation. A rise in prices then began, and reached such proportions that not only was the heavy decline of the early days recovered, but prices Dec. 31 were actually much better in most instances than at the openiag. Thus Milwaukee & St. Paul common sold down from 176 Dec. 1 to 166¾ Dec. 15, and touched 179¼ Dec. 31; Delaware & Hudson sold down from 161½ Dec. 1 to 153½ Dec. 12 and reached 174 Dec. 31 ; Southern Pacifio sold at 62.% Dec. 1, at 56 Dec. 12 and at 66¼ Dec. 31. There were rumors of a settlement of the differences in the copper tr;;de between the Heinze interests and the Amalgam-1ted Copper Co .. but these failed of confirmation. In the Colo.. rado Fuel & Iron contest a compromh-e board of directurs was agreed upon. An agreement was announcPd looking to the retirement of the $15,000,000 Hocking Valley preferred stock and the concentration of control (for purposes of sale) of the common stock. The Pennsylvania RR. put out another $10,000,0U0 issue of car trusts. The Consolidated Lake Superior Co. rescinded its action in declarjng a dividend; the American Grass Twine Co. al!-o reconsidered its action, and lowered the quarterly dividend from 1li to ¼p, c. . 1 he Money Market.-Monetary stringency was ave1ted by the formation of the $50,000,000 money pool. This safeguarded the situation. Prior to the 15th the highest rate on caJI was 12 p. c.; the news that 1his large fund might becalled into being acted immediately to lower rates. The last three days of the month call m ,,ney got up to 15 p. c., but no anxiety was caused by the rise, the preparations for the large 1st of January payments making temporary closeness inevitable, and 1t being current report that the $50,000,000 fund would come into play should the rate touch 2() per cent, a fig nre which was never reached. Time loans commanded tull 6 per cent at the closet and paper (doublename and prime single) was quoted at the same figure, with good single quoted at 6½, Money holdings diminished from $236,745,500 Nov. 29 to $22~,03i,600 Dec. 27, surplus reserves fell from $15.786,300 to $6,549,200 and loans were reduced from $879,826 000 to $875,321,500. Deposits dropped from $883 836,800 to $805,953,600. Foreign Exch,ir,ge, Sil~er, &c.-High-money rates brought a break in excbange rates after the 10th, and while $2,018,000 gold was shipped to the Argentine Republic the first two weeks, no gold went to Europe, and the decline the latteF part of the month rendered shipments out of the question. Quite liberal offerings of s ixty and ninety day bankers' bills, representing sterling loans, were noted, and some bankers' bills against purchases of securitieshere on European account, were also in evidence. An unusually wide difference between sight bills and cable transfers developed, and this was explained as being due to the fact that bankers having remittances to make before the end of the year preferred to employ their money here as long as possible, buying then cable.transfers instead of demand bills. Rates Dec. 31 were 4 8315@4 8325 for long,. 4 8650<a4 8660 for·short and 4 8745@4 8760 for cables. The Bank of England made no advance in its discount rate as feared; open market rates held pretty firm, being 3¾ at London Dec. 31, 3 at Paris and 3¼@3¼ at Berlin and Frankfort. bilver recovered somewhat and the price Dec. 31 was 22¼d,  25  LISTINGS ON :NEW YORK STOCK EXCHANGE. Company  LISTINGS ON THE NEW YORK STOCK EXCHANGE DURING 1902. The combined liatinga of stocks and bonds on the New York Stock Exchange during the calendit.r year 1902 reach a total of 1,317 mUlions. This amount exceeds wlth one exception all previous records; it does so, moreover, after omitting the Russian Government securities, 1,155 millions, an exceptional item, which if included would render the yearly comparison misleading.

Though our industries remained in a state of great activity throughout 1_902 and though unquestionably -the volume of mercantile trade (notwithstanding the -anthracite coal miners' strike and other labor troubles) was considerably in excess of that of the previous year, the aggregate of bank clearings did not quite come up to that of 1901. The explanation, however, is very simple. Speculation, while still large, was on a distinctly smaller scale than in 1901. The Ma.y panic in the last-named year appears to have checked public interest in the stock market and at no time during 1902 did the dealings on the Stock Exchange approach those recorded prior to that occurrence.· Besides this the tension in the money market during 1902 operated in the same direction, ·while necessa.rtly, during the closing months of 1902, ·the severe decline in prices and extensive liqulda ·tion forced served likewise to discourage out;elders.

As will be noticed, there is a column in the foregoing showing the approximate market value of the transactions. From this it appears that the market value of the sales in 1902 was only 14,218 milllo,n dollars, against 20,431 millions in the 12 months of 1901. Here, then, is a contraction in amount of over 6,000 mil• lion dollars. 0 f course this does not mean a contraction to that extent or to anywhere near that extent in the volume of ordinary bank clearings. As is well known, the Stock Exchange bas a proceaa of its own for clearing its transactions. Since May 1892 the dealings in all the active stocks on the Exchange ( comprising by far the major portion of the total dealings on the Exchange) have been cleared through the Stock Exchange Clearing House, thus effecting an enormous saving in the checks which must pa.BB through the bank clearing house. It sttll remains true, however, that- an increase or deorease in dea.Ilngs on the Stock Exchange involves more or less increase or decrease in ordinary bank clearings. The reason is perfectly obvious. The check given by a customer to his broker in payment of purchases made for his account and the check 'given by the broker in payment for sales made on the customer's behalf must necessarily both pass through the bank clearing Bearing this in mind, the :fact that the house. stock sales in 1902 bad a market value 6,213 million dollars less than the stock sales in 1901 obviously meant a considerable loss on that account in bank exchanges. If we carry our investigation a step farther we shall find that in each of the first six months the dealings fell much below those of the corresponding period of the previous year, the aggregate for the first half of 1902 having been, indeed, hardly half of that for the first half of 1901, the figures being 87,668,439 shares, against 170,066,746 shares; in market value the comparison was 6,424 million doll1:t,rs, against 13,466 million dollars. During J nly, August and September, when the phenomenally favorable crop prospects were a stimulating agency, the volume of business ran ahead of that of the corresponding period in 1901. In the closing months of the year, however, with prices declining and extensive liquidation in progress, the comparison again be-  CLEARINGS AND SPECULATION.

We make the total clearings for the 12 months of 1902 118,118 million dollars, as against 118,679 million dollars in the 12 months of 1901. The falling off has thus b~en trifling-only a small fraction of 1 per cent. As against the 118,118 million dollars for 1902, the clearings for 1900 and 1899-the largest previoualv recorded-were respectively ollly 86,205 and 94,178 million dollars, which affords an idea of the magnitude of the 1902 results. Moreover, more than the entire falling off from the totals for 1901 has been at New York, where stock speculation forms such an Important part in financial transactions. Outside of New York there was a further considerable expansion on top of successive increases in all recent years since 1896. This further addition outside of New York reached over 2,639 million dollars, bringing the total up to 41,791 million dollars, as against 39,162 millions in 1901; 33 1 671 millions and 83,416 millions respectively in 1900 and 1899; 26,959 millions in 1898, 23,894 millions in 1897 and 22,463 millions in 1896.

Another important fact appears on further examination. The improvement in clearings outside of New York extends to every one of the geographical divisions of the country, barring only the New England section; and in the New England section, while there is a small decrease, this follows almost entirely from the loss at Boston, there being only one other New England point (nam£-ly Lowell) recording di-miuished bank clearings. The loss at Boston is, doubtless attributable to the same circumstance as the loss at New York, that is a smaller volume of spceulative businesd. There was a great falling-off in the dealings in copper shares on the Boston Stock Exchange, and the aggregate of the stock sales on that. Exchange was only 9,872,774 shares in 1902 against 15,458,270 sh1.ues in 1901.

As far as the principal cities are concerned Detroit is the only point besides New York and Boston that has sustained a decrease, and the loss at Detroit (as also the trifling losses at some minor p:>ints) is not at all surprising considering the great falllng off in the grain movement which occurred in 1902 as a result of the crop shortage of the previous season. Here is a table showing the clearings of the lea.ding cities for the last four years, for both Ddcember and the 12 months.

FAILURES .AS A MEASURE OF BUSINESS STABILITY. We think it is always instructive to study the year'~ failure figures. According to R. G. Dun & Co.'s returns for 1902 there is a slight increase in both liabilities and number compared with 1901, but in averag liabilities there is a decrease. Compared with 1900, last year's average shows a more considerable decrease. We have to go back to 1899 to find an average smalle?' than in 1902. This lessening condition of the annual average liabilities ($10,114 in 1902 and •10,279 in 1901 and 112,854: in 1900, and *9, 733 in 1899), althou~h the number of failures increased, fully accord& with what would be expected to occur in a series ot buoyant years attended by set-backs but not attended by any general unsoundness in business. Or, statedin another !orm, a severe panic would have been an. inevitable sequence to any of the adverse turns which, have been an incident in the Wall Street market th& last three years, had it not been for the belief shared in by capitalists that trade was in a healthy condition. The public is inclined to attribute to th& 60-mtllion-dolla.r-loan pool, which certain banks and bankers announced, the relief which carried Stock · E xchange affidrs safely t hrough the first of January, payments. That is of course in a sense correct. Ba.ti t is well t o remember that t hose parties would, never have entered into t hat agreement had they not felt th at general trade and business were sound ;.in other words, the healthy condition of trade ensured the sa.ccess of the arrangement.

Such a com:parison, though, between the figures of one bureau gate of the five crops for 1902 is 4,350 million bushels, and those of another obviously possesses very little as against only 3,167 mil lion bushels for the poor value. The Aerlcultural Bureau m~de the 1899 crop season of 1901. In the three years immediately preonly 2,078 million bushels, as against the Census ceding-that is, 1900, 1899, 1898-the aggregate was, total of 2,666 ml1llons. There is g<'od reason for be- roup-hJy, 3,600,000,000 bushels each year, according to lieving that the Census figures were nearer right than the estimates of the Agricultural Bureau. We have those of the Agricultural Department. B11t If the already given the reason for thinking that the amounts · Department's figures were much too small In 1899, it should have been larger. The Census aggregate for appeara likely that they are also too small for 1902, 1899 on the same five crops would be 4,~U3,667,4 though perhaps not to the same extent. The Bureau bushels, as against the Bureau's 3,518,968,796 busheia la pr·one to under- estimate all the results, and no for that year. There is one other particular in which the year w11is don.bt a Uberal addition may safely be made to its 1902 figures, large though these be. The first oonolusion, a good one for the farming Interests. We refer to therefore, would seem to be fairly justified, that the the fact that on account of the previous year's de1902 corn crop may be considered to be the very best ficlenoy prices were maintained at tolerably high fiiures. The Bureau makes the average of farm on record. The oats crop ls another one of the country's lead- values for the 1902 production of corn 40·3 cents per ing productions which for 1902 far excels that of any bushel; this, while It compares with 60½ cents in previous year. In this case the statement is true 1901, contrasts with 35•7' cents in 1900, 30·3 cents in whether we use the Department's figures for the 1899, 28•7 cents in 1898 and 26·3 cents in 1897. In Census year or the Census figures. The Census made the ca 3e of oats the comparison is much the same, the the 1899 oats crop 943 million bushels, the Bureau average being smaller than for 1901 but higher than made it 796 million bushels; for 190.2 the B 11reau's for any of the years fmmedlateJy preceding. The estimate is 987 million bushels, or but little short of averages for wheat the Department puts at 63 cents, an even 1,000 millions. The wheat crop of 1902 did 62•4 cents and 61 ·9 cents, respectively, the last three not equal that of the previous year, wheat having In years.

Illinois, Indiana, Ohio and Mlssouri all show t:n the case of corn not only 1n immen1ely larger yield ~hari in the season preceding, but also larger than that of the sea~ons preceding. In a measure, too, this 1 iemark applies to the oats harvest. If the Dapart'ment'a figures can be relied upon, the Central B~lt also raised a good deal more wheat than in 1901, the loss in the total for the whole country following mainly from a reduced yieH in K\nsas (which is credited with a crop of only 4:6 million buahels in 1902, as against the extraordinary total of 99 million bushels in 19)1) and a reduced yield in Clilifornia, the crop of the latter being plaoed at but 22 million bushels, as against 34: mUlion bushels.  _________ _____________ CORN CROP FOR ll"IVB YEARS. ......;.._  I l  ProOo,on.  duction.

The American Iron & Steel Association has made public the statistics of the countr:,'s pig iron pr('lduction for the late calendar year as compiled by Mr, James M. Swank, its Ganeral Manager. The results are as expected-that is, they show that the make of iron in the United States was of unprecedented and extraordinary proportions. The total fell but little short of 18 million gross tons, the exact figure being 17,821,307 tons. There was an increase, roughly, of two million tons as compared with the calendar year 1901, which latter in turn had shown an increacie of somewhat over two million tons compared with the calendar year 1900. In other words, in 1902 the United States produced four mlllion tons more of iron th&n two years before. The fact becomes additionally significant when it la recalled that the 1900 make of iron (13, '189,242 tons) had been the largest ever reached up to that time. Considering the many retarding ciroumstanoea which prevailed during the year, operating to restrict the production, It muat certainly be considered noteworthy that It should have been found pos1ible to turn out so much iron. Mr. Swank deems It remarkable that there should have been such a large Increase when there were such serious adverse conditions to contend with, chiefly lnadeq aate transportation facilities, resulting In a short supply of coke and Iron ore and the banking for longer or shorter periods of many furnaces. The anthracite coal strike also seriously interfered with the activity of many Eastern furnace■•  CROP A:ND OTHER PRODUCTIONS.  As bearing on the magnitude of tne 19U.2 total., a statement made by Mr. Swank in his present re• port, and which embodies a comparison made by our• selves on some former occasions, is highly suggestive. The read~r may recall that in the calendar year 1901 the United States produced more pig iron than Great Britain and Germany-the two other great iron pro• ducing countries of the world-combined •. With the further increase in output which occurred in 1902 it is possible to say that this country made more pig iron than Great Britain and Germany, supplemented by Belgium. The United Kingdom in 1901 produced 7,761,890 gross tons of pig. For 1902 the output of that country was presumably somewhat over 8 million tons. The production in Germany and Luxemburg in 1901 was 7,860,893 metric tons and for 1902 it may be estimated half a million tons more. Belgium's output in 1902, we should judie, was in the neighbor. hood of 1¼ million tone. Hence the statement that the output of the United States at 17,821,307 tons was in excess of the combined make of iron in the same period of twelve months of Great Britain, Ger• many and Belgium seems well within the mark. In fact we may go a step further and declare that neither Great Britain nor Germany produced as much lion. in the whole of 190.2 as did the United States during the last six months of that year. During those six months, notwithstanding all the hindrances and drawbacks already referred to, 9,012,733 tons of iron were made in the United States. This is a mi1llon tons in excess of Great Britain's output for the twelvs months and half a million tons in excess of that of Germany. We may add that Germany has never as yet produced nine million tons of iron in any full year, and that the United Kingdom but once reached that figure, namely 9,421,435 tons in 1899. Indeed, as re9ently as 1897 our own make of iron was not much in excess of 9 million tons per annum. We give below the half-yearly totals b11ck to 1888.

The de• mand _all through the year was far in excess of supply. This ls well shown in the situation which developed as regards unsold stocks. Mr. Swank reports that the American Pig Iron Storage Warrant 1.Company held no pig iron whatever in any of its yards on De• camber 31 1902. He also points out that this is the first time since its organiMtlon in 1889 that the com• pany has not held at least a small quantity of pig iron in its yards at the close of a calendar year. At the end of 1901 it had 3,000 tons. As for the stocks of pig iron unsold in the hands of manufacturers or under their control, the amount, which had been exceptionally small at the beginning of 1902, was still further reduced, the aggregate December 31 1902 being only 49,961 tons, against 70,647 tons December 31 1901 and 442,370 tons December 81 1900. The 49,951 tons ls less than a single day's product.   https://fraser.stlouisfed.org Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis  37  As a res1l1G o! tn1s s&ate of thia 6 a ( whicn euended to steel as well as to iron), it became necessary to sup. plement home supplies of iron and steel with large importations from abroad. Of pig iron our imports for 1902 were 6.26,383 tons, as against only 62,930 tons in 1901 and 62,665 'tons in 1900. Taking iron and steel in all lts forms the imports were 1,213,266 tons in 1902 against 221,297 tons in 1901 and 209,955 tons in 1900. Our exports at the same time were heavily diminished. Of pig iron we exported only 27,487 tons, against 81,211 tons in 1901 and 286,687 tons in 1900. Of steel our shipments were 2,409 tons in 1902, against 28,614 tons and 107,385 tons, respectively. Taking all the shipments reported by weight, the exports were 372,811 tons, against 700,852 tons and · L,154,284 tons in the two years preceding. Allowing for the changes in stocks and the imports and exports, we get the following comparative statement as to the ·domestic consumption of pig iron.

If in place of the exports ~nd imports of the pig metal we should substitute the exports and imports of both steel and iron in all its forms, the contrast would be still more striking, for in 1902 the imports . exceeded the exports in amount of 840,4'4 tons, whereas in 1901 exports ex• ceeded imports by 479,M5 tons and in 1900 by 944:,329 tons, as will be seen by the following.

Taking theJeading grades of iron and steel., values for 1902 averaged '5 to 16 a ton higher than for 1901. Thus the average of steel billets was t30 67 against $24 13, and the average of gray forge pig iron (Lake ore) at Pittsburgh was $19 49 against $14 20. In the case of steel rails, where the influence and authority of the United States Steel Corporation were effective, there was no change all through the year from the schedule price of $28 00 a ton at the mills. It is worth noting that this was actually far below the average price for the twelve months of steel blllets from which the rails are made. The following shows the annual averages on certain staple articles of iron and steel for each year back to 1895. It will be noted that prices for 1902 are in many cases double those four years before in 1898. In the later months of 1902 some falling off from the extreme high figures occurred.  _  CROP .A.ND OTHER PRODUCTIONS.  38  AVERAGE YEARLY PRICKS OF IRON AND STEEL,  1902. 1901. 1900  S  Mtklu-  S  S  1895  TO  1902.  18119. 1898. 1897. 1896. 1895. $  $  t  S  S  Old lron Trails at Phlla .. ton.23 83 19 :!2 19 ~1 20 36 12 S9 12 !19 14 16 H 09 No.lanth.fdy.pigatPhl.L." 2219 1587 1998 1936 Gray forge pig iron atPhil. •• 19 20 14 08 16 49 16 60 Gra:, forge pig iron, Lake ore, at Pittsburgh ......

ANTHR.AGI1E GOAL PRODUCTION IN 1902. With everybody in need of coal, statistics bearing on the anthracite prodnction possess more than an academic interest at this time. The figures for the calendar year 19G2 are now available, and they reveal in a signHicant way the reasons for the prevailing scarcity of coal. The anthracite coal miners' strike as everybody knows, lasted !rom the 12th of May 1o the 23d of October. Thie was a period of neatly five and a half months. After the termination of the strike, mining was resumed on an extraordinary scale. Nevertheless, it appears that only 31,200,890 tons o! anthracite in the aggregate were shipped to market during the calendar year 1902, as against 53,563,601 tons in the calendar year 1901. Here then was ~ shortage in amount of 21 million . tons. The follow ing table shows the annual shipments to market fur each of the last thirty years: rear.

It is needless to say that there were no stocks at tidewater shlpplng points on January 1 1903. On January 1 190.2 the amount bad been 415,767 tom; January 11899 the total was 706,65 tons.

Qa.lte recently retail dealera have charged 110 to $12 a ton. J ast before the termination of the strike, that is at the beginning of Octobt r, some small amounts of coal were aold at retan as high as 126 a ton; in fact those who held coal at that time could get almost any price. It la not, howe·fer, these extraordinarily high prices that con- . stitute the most noteworthy feature of the year. Thefact upon which we would lay emphasis ie that while fancy prices were being paid for coal at retail, the coal companies sold at wholesale at ooly a very alight advance over previous figures. The usual spring circular was issued the first of April fixing the price of egg, stove and nut coal at.Ii 60 a too, with graded discounts starting with 60 cents for coal bought in April and diminishing 10 cents Ior each succeeding month thereafter, until on September 1 the full_ circular price was to be charged with no discount allowance whatever. This was the eame arrangement as in 1902, but of course there was no opportunity to carry it into effect, the strike breaking out in May. In October, on the resumption:of mining after th& strike, the coal companies made an advance of 50 cents, bringing the prices for egg, stove and nut up to $5 00 a ton, and this figure was thereaf-ter kept unchanged. The individual operators, as is known, after the closeof the year, that is in January 1903, broke away fromtheir arrangements with the coal companies, and exacted as high as $10, tlland $12 atonatwholeaale. This gave the retail dealers their opportunity to still further · increase the price to the consuming public, of which. they were not slow to avail themselves. The contrast. between the policy pursued by the coal companies,. who adhered to their determin:a tion not to take advantage of public necessities, and the wholly different. policy pursued by the independent operatore, is well indicated in the statement credited to an individual operator, that the coal companies might sell coal at.to a ton to the poor, the individual operators wouldl sell at '10 or *12 a ton to the rt.ch.  PRODUCTION OF- GOLD AND SILVER. UNITED  STATES AND  -<JOLD .AliD SJL VER PRODUCTION IN THE WORLD FROM JAN. 1881 'l'U DEC. 1902. The world'1:1 new gold supply, as our readers are aware, has during 1902 taken on.a fresh growth. For very nearly two years and a hall (beginning with -October 1899 and continuin& through 1900 and 1901) a marked decline in the product has been a notable fact. With so material a setback in the outflow from the mines, and with the volume and values of the world's business previously adjas ted to the much larger and annually increasing outflow, it can be no aurprise that the loss in new supply made itself felt in financial affairs. Of .course 1there were other contributory happenings which helped the monetary etrain that followed. A notable event in the industrial world seldom if ever finds its fn.11 explanation in a single influence. In this case the loBB In the product was also attended by increases in the demand. Indeed, the United States, although it kept up and even Increased its product to a small extent-while the total of the world'1 aupply decreaaed-not only stopped giving any portion of its product to Europe, but had begun to draw upon Europe's otherwfse depleted lnfl.ow. For the calendar years of 1898, 1899 and 1900 the ·united States took of gold from the outside world oTer 160½ million dollars net. We will not follow up this idea further, for its remoter phases do not concern our present inquiry. It will, however, be of interest to our readers in connection with the foregoing to note the Bank of England's minimum rates of Interest; they will be found for eight consecutive years, from 1893 to 1901, both years included (OHRONIOLB, February 16 1902, page 368), given at the close of our annual review of the trade of Great Britain for 1901. Notice particularly the advance in the rate beginning with OJtober 1899, when the R1md mines were abut down, to the close of D .member 1901. 0  GOLD PRODUCT OF THE WORLD  1881  TO  1903.  The oooasion of the loss in the world's annual gold 11upply, which we have referred to above, is well understood. It was an incident of the breaking out of the war in South Africa in September 1899 aod the closing  -of the R11nd and adjl\cent mines. Since that war terminated the output of that center has again been on the increase. It will be remembered that the resumption of the reports of the Transvaal Chamber of Mines occurred in Ma.y 1901. The prodmct, howover, for a considerable time continued to develop very slowly; it had only reached 62,397 ounces in December 1901. Bnt since 1902 opened the progress has been more rapid. The total passed the 100,000ounce limit in lfarch 1902 (being that month 104.128 ounces), and in December last had nearly reached 200,000 ounces, the amount reported by the Chamber of Mines for Dacember 1902 being 189,537 ounces. As the output in August 1899 waa 459,710 ounces, it will be seen that there is large room for growth yet before the output equals the maximum produced in the best month prevtoue to the war.   https://fraser.stlouisfed.org Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis  THE  WORLD.  Reports from South Africa respecting foture development are now, however, all favorable, except in the matter of labor supply. According to Colonial Secretary Chamberlain's opinion, expressed in his address made at J ohannesbure: Saturday evening, January 17, the future of the mining Industry and of the colony ts highly promising. Aa to the question of labor,he thtnka the Kaffirs should be mada to work,and lf they can be, it does not need to be aald that the labor problem would be solved. Now they buy wives to keep themselves ln idlenel!IB. He calla that practice the worst kind of slavery, and the world, we think, will coincide with hts vlew. The inference one must draw from his remarks on this point ls that the practice must be stopped. He says that "the black race is increasing with great rapidity and unless It can be settled in a regular industry It will prove a danger and a difficulty.'' Of course it is not the affatr of a day or of a year to wholly change this situation, which has grown up with the age■ in a race. B11t there are always among a people some who have more conscience and more ambition than perhaps the majority have, and if persistent eftort ls made to eradicate the evil it will no doubt give way by degrees, and an abundance of workers for all _purposes be found. "In the meantime," Mr. Chamberlain says, "tne greater need ls an increase of the white element; what ls wanted ls more brains and less muscle." He was "opposed to any importation of labor until all the resources for developing avatlable labor had been exbausted. 11 Evidently Mr. Ohamberlain looks for speedy development in an industrial way, but his plane take In a higher and a wider development as well. In those directions we may place the auggestions he made for "the establlshment of a university wbioh would be superior to anything in the world." Ravlewlng, however, the immediate outlook of the whole field of gold mlning as It exists In those colonies to-day-reviewing it in the light of recent experience-it does not set-m impossible to us that the largest total of the Rand mines, if not reached, may be quite nearly approximated within the current year. Additional encouragement Is lent to this expectation by promises given out of new development, that is of new mining ventures in the Transvaal region. It is always very difficult to pick out the quantum of truth such rumors from mining districts contain and to know how many of them are based on bet and how many on speculation and how much on an over-sangaine temperament. Moat jadges expected a greater ~nd more rapid development in the Witwate , strand district of South Africa up to this date than has been realized. The report for that centre whioh we give to-day proves simply that more difficulties have been met to be overcome in opening mines which have been idle for nearly two years than were foreseen. We ourselves are having another les■on of a. like character taught us by the results in our coal mines after they had been shut down for a few  40  PRODUCTION OF GOLD AND SILVER.  months -only. But South Africa is recovering its out• put ~n its other gold-producing districts more ra.p idly; in those sections the highest 11nnual total was 341,908 ounces in 1898, and in 1902 ii had again reached 300,000 ounces. Besides South Afrlca, material, though of courlle very much smaller, increases in the world's new gold supply may be looked for during the current twelve months from the United States and Australasia. At the same time it is well to remember that even should South Africa get back to Its maximum product before the war, by the end o.f 1903, and all other sources of production remain unchanged, the output of the world'• gold mines would still begin 1904 on a basis of product .2.,000,000 fine ounces larger (of the value In sterting of about 8½ million pounds, or nearly 42 million dollars,) than the product in 1902. This thought enables one to see that the problem of the gold supply In the near future la one of large possibllitles. We are inclined to think, too, that our supposition is not an Improbable one. We do not mean to say that we feel confident South Africa will recover Itself fully during the coming twelve months; that ls not our asaumption. But take all the other countries together, It appears likely tbat there will be In them more than enough growth to make up the lack there may turn out to be in Afrfca o! reaching its old monthly output. There are, however, considerable· uncertantiea in all mining anticipations. For inatance, Canada's production has oome far short of all forecasts. The output seems to have settled down to a steady decline. The maximum :was reached in 1900, when the tot&l product was 1,360,479 fine ounces, valued at U'Z,916,762. In 1901 the total value had d eclined to t24,462,222 and the oo.ncas,were 1,183,362; whereas in 1892 the product dropped further to 913,314 fine ounct-a and to $19,600,000 value. No section ever has htl<1 out a better promise, according to current reports, than did tthe Klondike, and to find that the total ounces had fallen last year below one million was  in their output, while quite a number of the smaller ones have in a moderate way increased their product. Thus, for instance, there is a small loss in Colorado and Montana. The three States standlng next to Colorado all show growth. The 1902 result in Callfornia is particularly gratifying, in that its lncrea■e though not luge follows a small increa.se in several preceding yeara; indeed, there has been no setback since 1897, when the produot had dropped to 707,160 ounces; now the preliminary report makes the out• put 828,4:19 ounces In 1902. We have above already referred to Alaska, but we are Informed that the Territory's future is brighter in promise than at any previoue period. 011 experts jast returned tell very large stories about the strikes of oil In Southern Alaska. So, too, the e■ tlmates of coming gold production are beyond those of any previous period. The public, however., ls getting used to large estl-mates and small res alts from that section of the conn-try, and prefers to watt for fuller developments before Indulging in any very extensive anticipations. Altogether., however, the United States is showing. growth again after two years of extremely little varlation in the output. We will add to the foregoing that from RuBBia we have not as yei received any report of the year's gold mining operations in that country for 1902. It will be remembered that last year, April 12 1902, page 763, we gave a full accoa.nt of the results a11 to product for 1901, confirmatory of our earlier advices, in January. For other sources of supply the details are given below. The general aggregate for the whole world we have brought togetherin the followingcompilation from 188l to 1902, both years inclusive.

As to the comparative production o! various sources of supply tn 1902 and the future prospect■ of yield, such facts as we have been able to procure will be found in the summaries immediately following. UNITED BTA.TEB.-Notwithstanding less promising results in Alafk!\ than expected and a decrease in the output of Colorado mines, the United States shows e gain in gold yield for 1902 of 106, 768 fine ounces. The product of the country for 1902 was consequently the greatest In its history and slightly more than Africa's ace rd total of 1898. N evertheleBB the United States again rellr.qulehes the leading position it as sumetl in 1900, Australasia having increased its output. Gold· mining in this country has shown Iese eccentricities than in the other import-ant producing countries. With the exception of 1901., when a slight decrease was exhibited., progress~ has been steadily upward for a decade. On the other hand Australasia, while developing its prnduct quite rapidly from 1896 to 1899, suffered a considerable dEcline in 1900., and for 1902 giv£s a total only 40.,000 ounces greater than in 1899; the United States during the 1ame interval added to its output about 476,000 ounces. The prellminary estimate for 1902 kindly furnished us by Mr, George E. Roberti!, Director of the ¥int, places the production at approximately 3,911,268 ounces valued at t80,863,070, against 3,806,600 ounces valued at t78,666,700 in 1901, and 3,829,897 ounces valued at $79,171,000 in 1900, The ounces and values as given for each State by the Director are as follows, comparison being made wlth 1901 and 1900: GOLD PB.ODUCTIOK IR UNITED STATES,  ,---19JO.----. ,---1901.------. . . - - l O O I .

AF:&I0A..-Returns from the Witwatersund District of South Africa denote clearly how rapidly the mining industry is recoverln~ from the severe setback the war entailed, and indicate that full production may be fairly looked for in 1903. The year 19Q2 opened with twenty-one mines being worked, the January output reaching 70,341 fine ounces; it closed with about fifty mines turning out ore, and a monthly pro duction of 189,637 fine ounces. Even this latter total does not compare favorably with the 4:69, 710-ounce output of August 1899, but it is 'greater, with but few exceptions, than the result for any simihr period prior to November 1897. Few, if any, of the mines now being worked have anywhere near their full complement of men, or the outtum would be very much greater. Fnrthermore, about thirty mines in the Witwatersrand District alone have yet to resume. In the territory contiguous to the Rand only two mines out of thirteen made reports for October; but recent progress has been so satisfactory that anticipa tlona of full resumption within 1903 seem not without warrant.   https://fraser.stlouisfed.org Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis  '1'.ne mines in t..ne districts immediately adjacent to the Bjnd have not as yet fared as well as the Rand in the matter of resuming operations. For Decembertheir ag~regate output was only 6,486 fine ounces,. compared with about 22,000 fiae ounces monthly just· prior to the breaking out of hostilities. But in othersections of Africa., notably Rhodesia., operations haveprogreSBed quite satisfactorily. Returns to the Rtiodeaia Obamber of Mlnes denote that the 1902 output: of the district has been 194,268 ounces,, as against 172,· 160 ounces In 1901 and 91,316 ounces in 1900. Combining all fields outside the Rind we reach an es tlmated production of about 307,286 fine ounces, or 71,686 fine ounces more than in 1901.

That province is not alone in giving an increased output, but its share of the year's gain ls particularly noticeable, following as it does a large addition- in the preceding year. The steady and rapid development of tihe mining industry in Westralla is certainly one of the most important incidents of the gold history of recent years. Only ten years ago, out of a total Australasian product of 1,796,130 gross ounces, Westralfa contributed but 69,548 gross ounces, or less than 3i per cent. In 1902 its share of an aggregate yield of 4,796,174 groS!! ounces was 2,177,441 gross ounces, orover 45 per cent. Victoria uhibits a farther moderate loss., its product for 1902 having been 760,000· gross ounces, or 30,050 gross ounces less than in 1901. The New South Wales yield Increased 29,li65 gros& ounces during the year. Qa.eensland recorded a considerable increase in 1902. New Zealand exhibits an addition of 46,884 gross ounces, or &bout 10 per cent, in 1902. The country has again assumed the leading position among the world's gold producers, and current and prospective further development of the fields in Westra.Ha seems to assure its retention for some little time to come, barring unexpected discoveries in countries now prominent in gold-mining. The output of all the colonies in 1902 was 4,145,876 fin& ounces, s~ainst 3,'192,364: fine ounces in 1901. PRODUCT OF GOLD IN AUSTRALASIAN COLONIES-FINE OUNCES, 71l8ma- 1otalA'IU• South Ne;w Nf/W So.

CA.N.A.DA.-A further decrease in the gold produc• tlon in Canada tn 1902 is indicated by the returns now at hand, the year1 s yield having fallen to approxi mate]y 943,314: fine ounces from 1,183,362 fine ounces in 1901. The less favorable showing ls primarily, if not wholly, due to the poorer outturn from the Yukon district. This ls rather disappointing, as development in progre11 at the close of 1901 seemed to assure an increased yield for 1902. Ba.t great difficulties arising from sevei:e winter weather must al ways inter fere with progress iri gold-mining in the Fiu North. The open season-the period when washing can be -carried on-is so limited that when it is restricted it seriously affects the volume of the outturn. In the other fields droughty conditions are the main condition to be contended with. The results for the whole of Canada for the last eleven years in fine ounces and values are 88 follows. We are under obligation to Mr. E . D. lngall, Mining Engineer to the G9ologtcal Survey of Canada, for the estimate for 1902. Canada's production In 1892..................

We heal' of new deposits being opened from time to time, bnt future returns of, output furnish no evidence of Industry in developing them. Manchuria and Eastern Siberia are reputed to be the seat of considerable deposits. If this be true, it would seem that little effort is made to work them beyond acertatn limit, for of all the gold-prodncing conntriea Russia shows the smallest variations from year to year. During a period ol thirty years-from 1872 to 1901, inclusive-the country's yield has never risen above 1,391,260 fine ounces nor fallen below 922,226 fine ounces, · ranging most of the time between abl)ut 1,050,000 and 1,200,000 ounces. h a recent cable message, Mr. John Rosensl, of Seattle, Wash., American managing director of the Northwestern Siberia Co., states that the right to prospect for gold and _o ther minerals included 1n the trading and development concessions to the Northwestern Siberia Co. for the 200,000 sqaare miles in Ea.stern Siberia bordering on Bering Sea and the Arctic Ooean, has been extended to Americans on the same terms as to Russians.

Mexloo, for instance, which a decade ago yielded but little more than 60,000 ounces, now.be an output of about 600,000 ounces. China has increased Its output threefold within a few years. Korea. has done even better, and a number of the South American States are reporting a better output. Under all the circum1tances we believe we are safe in concluding that " other countries'1 a■ whole may be credited with a fair tncreaae in production in 1902.  a  SrLVER.-PRonucnoN OF THE WoRLD.-We have fouud it, as usual, d1ffi.oult 10 early in the year to obtain accurate information as to the progress in 1901 of the silver-mining industry. Such information aa we secured last year upon which to base an estimate of the 1901 yield proved in the aggregate to be much closer·to aetual results than usual, the revision now necessary entailing a change of only three-quarters of a million ounces in a total of one hundred and seventy"'. five millions. Mr. Roberta'c1 (Director of the Mlnt) estimate for the 1902 silver output indicates a yield of 68,666,0Si ounces, or 3,362,084 ounces greater than in 1901, and Me:doo ls likely to increase its product moderately. From Australasia and "all other countries" such returns as are at hand are very inconclusive and do not seem to warrant any important variations from the 1901 figures. Ba.t altogether and ss a result of the gains in the United States and Mexico the world's product is a little in excess of the volume in 1901 and in 1900, and consequently makes a new record of yield.

The year 1902 opened in gloom. ·The South African war was still in progress and people saw for the moment no indication of an early ending. Consequently, the Government, it was foreseen, would be forced to issae another large loan, and that would make money both scarce and dear. Moreover, on the Continent fierce hostility to this country was eve1ywhere manifi.ested. And there was deep disappointment throughout all classes of the community at the break- down of -our mllltary system. • Abroad matters did not look very much more pleasant except in the United States. In India famine continued. la Australia the long drought was intllcting severe loss upon New South Wale1 and Qlleensland. Cllina was exhausted after the Boxer move.ment. And most of the foreign customers of this -c ountry were buying less from us than for s_ome years ·before. Oo the Continent Germany was passing through a grave crisis. The condition of things in Russia wa, even more depressing. Austria-Hungary was torn asunder by internal dissensions. And in Ftance there was an utter lack of confidence and a vast accumulation of unemployed money. Very soon, however, the pessimist feeling here in London -changed to one of hopefulness. It came to be understood that the Boers still in the field were utterly exhausted, and 1:hat they could not hold out very much longer. The belief was strengthened when the Prime Minister of Holland endeavored to mediate between this country and the Boers. Consequently, early in the year there began again active buying of consols and of Elouth African gold shares. The first buying was undoubtedly from the Continent and apparently from quarters in close communication with the Boer representatives. But very soon active buying began here and it continued until peace was arranged. the highest prices having been attained in the latter part of May. Consols ro~e almost to 98 and some of the favorite South .A frican go1d shares went higher than they bad been even during the boom of 1895. Immediately after the settlem~nt of peace selling on an enormous scale set in and continued fo[ the following six months, and prices in all cases were sent lower than they bad been at the beginning of the year. At one time consols dropped almost to 9 l and the fall in gold shares ranged from 20 to 50 per cent. There was unquestionably a large bull account in this country both in consols and in gold sbares. but had that been the only iofluence acting upon the market it would have been eas1ly se •tled without any sens'.:l.. tional fall, for though money was not very plentiful it -could be obtained on not unreasonable terms by all who were in good credit, since there was perfect c mfidence in the London money market and business of every kind was sound. But there were exaggerated fears entertained in most foreign countries. Upon the Continent, for instance. France was disturbed by the enforcement of the Association's Jaw. Religious feeling was greatly excited, deposits were withdrawn from the savings banks and the monks were preaching warmly against the Government. Consequently a good deal of uneasiness developed, apprehensions of political disturbances sprang up and money began to be   https://fraser.stlouisfed.org Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis  rs  IN  ·&  TRADE.  1902.  hoarded. As a result of this the leadin?; French banks withdrew a large proportion of the b:i.lances they had hitherto been employing in Lo~don, and French operators sold consols, gold shares and other securities almost recklessly. German operators followed suit. Both in France and Germany there was likewise a very exaggerated fear that speculation had been carried so far in the United States that a crisis was imminent. Q There was some apprehension of the same kind in this country, but it was neither so acute nor so unreasonable as upon the Continent-. Therefore, several of the foreign banks refused to renew American bills, and American securities were sold in immense amounts. The selling in France was still further stimulated by the break-up of the Liberal party in Spain and the resignati1n of the Sagasta Ministry. French capitalists had bought Spanish securities on an immense scale, believing that a serious effort was about to be made to improve the Spanish exchange. In fact, negotiations were opened between the Minister of Finance, the Bank of :-!pain and the other leading hanks and railway companies for the purpose of raising and steadying exchange. But the negotiations failed, and there was a drop in ~patiish securities which added to the losses of Paris. The pessimist feeling prevailing all over the Continent added greatly to the difficulties here, and accounted to a great extent for the heavy fall in securities that went on until the end of November. In December there was another change of feelin~, and quotations gradually and steadily advancedi so that the year ended with a more hopeful feeling than had prevailed since peace was arranged. The re- · covery here was accompanied by a recovery all over the Continent and nearly everywhne in Europe. Therefore the year closed with a generally better feeling. As the war came to an end in May, the Government borrowings have been decided1y Jes• than seemed likely when the )'ear began. Whereas for exarnple in 1901 the Govern· ment had to issue new con sols to the amount of 60 millions sterling. in the year just terminated they added to the consols outstanding only :32 millions ~terlin~. On the other hand, the issue of freasury bills has bee.a larger than any body anticipated. Until la~t yl:'ar the Government, when the taxes did not come in promptly enough for its requiremPnts, borrowed from the Bank of England on what are calied Deficiency biJl.;;. During the war, however, this system told adverselyupon the London money market. The Bank, having to finance the Govt'rnmenL was not able to retain control of . the outside ma.rk1-t. and frequently, therefore, inconvenience was occasioned. Under our taxation system a much larger proportion of the revenue is co11ected in the three months from January 1st to March 31st than in any other quarter of the financial year. Consequently! when the expenditure is very heavy, as it was all through the war, the Government is usuaJly short of money during the first nine months of the financial year, and during t.hose nine months it has frequently -to borrow frow the Bank of Eng• land on Deficiency bills. A few months ago tbe Chancellor of the Exchequer recognized the inconveniences caused by this manner of doing business, and he obtained power from Parliament to apply to the open market instead of relying entirely upon the Bank of England. Therefore, he took authority to raise an additional 15 millions sterling by tbe issue of Treasury bills, and of the amount authorized he has actua1Iy floated ~bout half. He has also b9rrowed for other parpoEes in Treasury bills; the rPsult being that TrPasur_y bins to the aggregate of 34½ OJillions sterling are now outsta'Ilding. Large borrowings by the Government prevented money from becoming plenti •ul in the open market, yet the rates of interest and discount were somewhat lower in 1902 than  44  BUSINESS IN GREAT BRITAI.r .  they had been in 1901, and they were decidedly lower than they bad been in 1900. One reason for this is that the Government borrowings were less last year than they Wf re the year before. .Another was that in 1900 the value of money in Germany rose very high indeed, and that reacted upon the London money market. Since then Germany has been passing through a severe crisis, and consequently Germany has not drawn upon the London gold market as she did formerly. A third reason is that gold has not been shipped from London to the United States. On the contrary, gold has been sent from the United States both to Paris and to Buenos Ayres. But the chief reason of all is that the Continental banks, and more particularly the French banks, have been employing immense amounts in this market. Ever since 1899, when French bankers began to fear a or:sis in Germany, they have greatly increased the amounts of money they have been employing in London, until, according to the best estimates that can be formed, in the summer of the year just ended there was French money employed hei·e of between 30 and 40 millions sterling. Of course there was a good deal more French money in vested by private capitalists in consols, Treasury bills, gold shares, and the like, but the 30 or 40 millious sterling spoken of were chiefly surplus balances held by bankers and invested temporarily either in sterling bills or in Government securities, or employed in carrying over securities upon the !-tock Exchange. In addition to this amount, a good deal of Continental money, and mo, e particul9rly of French mom-y 1 was employed here in American bills backed by good collaterals. Towards the end of August and the beginning of September, however, when the enforcement of the Associations law caused much anxiety in France, and led to heavy withdrawals of deposits from the savings banks, the French banks began to withdraw gradually and carefully a portion of their balances employed here. They have gone on doing so almost continuously ever since, with the result that it is estimated that French money now employed here by French banks is less than half what it was in A.ugmt last. On the other hand, as apprehension extended in France, a great many French capitalists sent mor:ey over here to be invested safely. They have not cared to invest in any of the neighboring Continental countries, partly because of their want of faith in their political stability but mainly because they are greatly afraid of socialism. They have, though, been investing here very freely in Colonial securities of all kinds, and very largely in Crown Colony eecurities; also in consols, _in gold shares, and so on. And the tendency at present seems to be to increase French investments iu London. Owing to the withdrawals of French bankers' balance~, the rates of interest and discount have been higher in London during the second half of tbe year than they were in the first half. But they have been prevented from becomrng seriously high partly by the large t."ontiLental investments just referred to and partly by the absence of gold withdrawals for the United States. Money, indeed, would probably have been even cheaper than it was were it not ihat there was a drain of gold unexpectedly heavy both to Egypt and to Argentina. Egypt has been doing a very good trade. Argentina has exceedh gly favorable crops, and she is doing an exceptionally large trade both with South Africa and with Aus ·ralia. Indeed, she has supplied South Africa with food, mules, horses and other necessaries during the war on an immense scale. The result of all has been that the Bank of England rate of discount during the whole year never went below 3 per cent and never went above 4 per cent. In January the rate was reduced from 4 to 3½ per cent and in February to 3 per cent. At the beginning of October it was:raised again to 4 per cent. Upon the Continent rates have been almost as steady as here at home. The Bank of France made no change in its rate. Indeed, it has not altered the rate since 1900. The Imperial Bank of Germany in Ja.nuary of 1902 put down its rate to 3½ per cent and in February to 3 per cent. It raised the rate to 4 per cent again in October. There was no change in the rates either at Amsterdam or Brussels, and there were only two changes in the rate of the Austro-Hungarian Bank. Business of every kind all over the Continent, in short, ha~ been exceedingly depressed throughout the year. There has _been an utter lack of enterprise, a complete unwillingness to enter into new risks,   https://fraser.stlouisfed.org Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis  and consequently the money markets have everywhere been lifeless. To that is largely due the comparative ease that has prevailed in London in spite of the sensational movemen ts of the Stock Exchange and the vast borrowings and expenditure of the Government. There have been during the year several banking events of considerable interest. The International Banking Company of New York opened a branch in London for the purpose of doing an exchange business with the Philippines. fhe National Bank of the South African Republic became the National Bank of Eouth Africa. An agricultural bank of Egypt was formed with a capital of 2½ millions sterling, And the Bank of China and Japan went into liquidation. Furthermore, the larger banks have bought up and absorbed a considerable number of small banks both in London and all over the country. It would be tedious to give a list of all the amalgamations, but the tendency which has been visible for several years of taking over the smaller institutions is making such rapid headway that in a very short time it seems certain that the smaller banks will all ha v& disappeared, and that there will be then a moderate munher of very large banks. It has long been evident that it would be hopeless to attempt to start a new bank here, for banking facilities are brought so completely within the reach of every class of the community that there is hardly room for a new undertaking, and certainly there would be very little chance of success without an immense capital- so immense as to make it improbable that the earnings would compensate for the risks. Furthermore, it has long b:en clear that the day of private banks was ove1·. Since the private banks hol1 no public meetings and publish no detailed accounts, nobody knows what their real standing is, and therefore business tends tq go more and more from the private to the joint- stock banks. More lately, as tho private b :m ks have in large measure disappeared, the smaller joint-stock banks consider it advisable to amalgamate with the larger, either because, being situated in the rnterior, they find it convenient to have their head offices in London, or because the competition of the great London banks is pushing them too closely. At all events, the smaller concerns are rapidly disappearing. One other event in the banking world may be worth noticing. When Sir Robert Peel reorganized English banking in 1814, and 1845, he allowed se,eral banks to continue to issue, as they prevfously had done, what is called an ··t1.uthorized issue," that is to say, they had acquired the right by long custom to issue notes without holding gold as a security a.gainst them. And he continued the permission to do so provided they did not exceed the average circulation of a couple of years immectiately preceding the legislation. Furthermore, he arranged that if any bank outside of London lost its right of issue for any reason, the Bank of England might emit a certain proportion of the circulation thus disa.ppearing. Since this legislation to)k place, theBank of England has increased its authorized or fiduciary circulation nine times. It now amounts to £18,175,000, the Bank during the year just ended having increased its authorized circulatioH by £400,000. The silver market has been much agitated during the the year. The first 2½ months' quotations were fairly steady, for there was a good demand both for l11dia and the Straits fettlen:!ents. But in the middle of March a heavy fall occurred, due principally to the difficulties in which China found herself when she was compelled to pay the indemnity imposed on her by the Powers on a gold basis. To do so, she had to sell silver largely to India and other countries, the result being that the price, which, at the beginning of January was over 26d. per ounce, went bdow 24d. per ounce in April and May. Then there was some recoveryt but in August there was another sharp fall, the price going below 22d. As already said, the chief cause of the heavy fall was the difficulties of China in paying the indemnity. But there were several contributory causes~ Neither Russia, nor France, nor the Indian Government bought silver for the mints as one or the other of them had done for several ,ears previously. Furthermore, Spain stopped completely her coinage of silver. The Siamese Government adopted the gold standard and the Government of the Straits Settlements appointed a commission to inquire into the desirability of doing &s India, Japan and Siam had  BUSINESS IN GREAT BRITAIN. already 'done. The heavy fali in silver continued until November, when there was a slight recovery. The highest price o.f the year in London was 26 3-16d. in January and the lowest 21 11-16d. in November. The total imports of silver into the United Kingdom dtuing the year were £9, 764,296, or £I, 737,352 less than the preceding year. The total exports were £10,716,118, or £1,333,719 less than the preceding year . . In the gold market there were few movements calling for special notice. The total imports of the metal were £21,629,049, or £913,421 more than the year before, but it is to be noted that we received from South Africa last year about five millions sterling more than the year before. On the other hand, India did not ship so much gold as she did the previous year. The exports of gold amounted to £15,409, • 088, or £1,443,8~3 more than the preceding year, or 10 3 per cent. In addition, a good deal of gold on account of London was sent to Argentina from South Africa and Amtralia. Trade during the year has been fairly satisfactory, as is proved by the revenue, the railway, the Clearing House and the Board of Trade retm·ns. The revenue for the nine months ended with December amounted to a little over 91¾ millions sterling, which i3 just about what the Chancellor of the Exchequer estimated it would be in April last.. It was then thought that the Cha'n cellor'a estimates were very sanguine, and many anticipated that trade would fall away, and consequently that the revenue would not come up to expectations. So far: howtver, it has done so. The returns of the 17 principal railway companies of the United Kingdom show gross receipts for the whole year amounting to £17,699,000, being an increase of a little over a million and a quarter compared with the preceding year, or about 2·8 per cent. As the rail way traffics had grown year after year, this is a very satisfactory showing. The total clearings through the London Clearing House amounted to£10,02S,742,000, being £4.67,573,000 in excess of the clearings of 1901, which hitherto was the record year. A considerable part of the increase is due no doubt to the augmentation of debt consequent upon the South African war, the clearings onconsols' settling days, for example, exceeding those of the corresponding days of the year before by £86,290,000. There was an actual . decrease in the clearings on ordinary Stock Exchange settling days. The remainder of the increase took place in trade proper. According to the Board ot Trade returns for Decembe1·, the total imports amounted in value to £528,860,284, being £6,870,086 in excess of those of the preceding year, or 1-3 pe·r cent. The total value of the exports of .British and Irish produce was £283,539,980, being £3,517,6'J4 in excess of those of the precedmg year, or 1·3 per cent. It is clear, therefore, that trade, notwithstanding complaints, was fairly good all through the year. It was better, however, in the home trade than in the foreign trade. It is noticeable, indeed, that during the past 12 or 15 years the home trade has been persistently improving in spite of all adverse influences, whereas the foreign trade has varied according to politics and according to the economic conditions of our chief customers. The foreign trade last year was benefitted, of course, by the great coal strikes in the United States and in France. On the other hand, the foreign trade was injured by the adverse e conomic condition of so many of our chief customers. India for a large part of the year suffered from famine. Towards the end of the year the famine practically disappeared and India was able to buy more largely than before. But still our trade with that country was adversely affected by the lon~-continued drought. Our trade with Australia likwise suffered, and China, of course, is not in good circumstances; her whole economic condition is unfavorably influenced by the dis tnrbance in exchange due to the payment of the indemnity. South Africa, again, was not in a position to do very much trade. Broadly speaking, we did not export as much to the Continent or to the Far East as we did the year before, the Continent, as mentioned frequently in this review, having been greatly depressed throughout the twelve months. On the other hand, we did a larger busrness with South America and Turkey, and our trade with India improved as the year drew to a close. Agriculturally the year was not good. The weather in January and February was unfavorable to eowing, and consequently the spring crop was rather belated. March was very fine and farmers were able to push forward with their   https://fraser.stlouisfed.org Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis  45  spring sowings. Unfortunately, however, the spring and the early summer were unpropitious, but towards the end of June brilliant weather set in and vegetation proceeded rapidly. July again was a variable month, though at its close there was a week or two of splendid weather, and the crops everywhere looked exceedingly well. As a matter of fact the crops were very abundant both in grain and in straw, but unfortunately the weather at gathering was most Uli.· favorable. Harvesting was late-did not begin, speaking broadly, until August; and August was a disastrously wet month. A great deal of the corn was so injured in the cutting that it deteriorated in condition. Moreover, the price of grain was low. The hay crop was abundant but was late in harvesting and was injured by the weather. The root crops were good, and the pastures turned out very favorably also. Still, farmers did not do well during the yea.r, It is too early yet to get statistics of the production of coal in 1902, but all the evidence available points to th9 conclusion that the output was decidedly larger than in the preceding year. There was an active demand for all kinds of manufactures at home, and there was a very keen demand for the United States. Moreover, both the United ~tates and Canada purchased an immense quantity of fron and steel, and that gave a great impetus to the demand of iron and steel manufacturers for coal. At the beginning of the year there was a, very general fear in the trade that the crisi3 in Germany and the abnormal increase of productive capacity in thP United State:; would lead to a very much more intense competition than ever felt before. Indeed, there was a dread that the United States might be able to flood the home markets with coal, and the dread was accentuated by the coal tax imposed by Sir M. H. Beach. As a mat.ter of fact there has been less competition from the United States than in previous years, and the competition of Germany has not been in the least greater. It is a very remarkable fact that Germany which increased its capacity for production so much during the boom period, has not apparently competed with our industry at all more actively. No doubt Germany oxpor1e:l to , France a very large quantity of -coal during the coal strike, and Germany also increased its exports both to Holland and to B elgium. But as far as statistics are at present available, it would not seem th!J.t the increase in the German exports to Be 'gium and Holla[ld has been large. Probably the explanation is that our exports are of special kinds of coal which Germany cannot supply, particularly of steam coal and gas coal, and that therefore the increased production and productive capacity of Germany do not threaten our trade as much as was supposed a little while ago. In any event, the coal trade has been exceedingly active all through the year, and though prices were somewhat lower than in 1901, they were fairly steady. In 1901 there was a sharp fall after the great rise of the year before, but in 1902, though there was somewhat of a further decline, the tendency recently has been more in an upward direction. As the year drew to a close, moreover, hope rose likewise. Especially there were great expectations of better times whenever the labor difficulty in South Africa is solved. That it will soon be solved is the prevailing opinion, and when gold-mining is resumed on the scale which prevailed before the war, there are anticipations that the orders for machinery, for railway plant and the like will be such as will give great impetus to the coal trade at home. But whil~, Epeaking broadly and generally, the demand, both home and foreign, for coal last year was good and promises n ow to be still better in the new year, there are two directions in which coal owners rather look for a falling off. The agitation which is being conducted for economizing in railway management and improving the methods of working is tending to reduce the train miles run, and therefore to decrease somewhat the railway demand for, coal. Moreover, electricity is more or less . displacing gas and this is diminishing the demand for coal. In iron and steel there bas likewise been great activity during the year, mainly because of the strong demand f01; the United States and Canada. In the first half of the year there was an increase in the output of pig iron of about '200,000 tons, and though the statistics for the second half are not forthcoming as yet, it is believed that the production was not any less. If so, the increase of output for the year was about 400,000 tons. The prices of pig iron, moreover, have remained  46  BU IXESS IN GREAT BRIT 1~.  fairly steady throughout the year. In Scotch warrants tbe highest price was 58s 4d. and the lowest 48s. lOd., which is nearly the same as the previous year. There was somewhat more variation in the price of Cleveland warrants, but not very much. The most strikio~ feature of the sear has been the extraordinary demand for the United States. In the first ten months of 1902 the United States imported pig iron, rails, blooms and billets to the extent of 678,009 tons, against only 47,024 tons in the previous year. Unlike in coal, the ·German competition has been exceedingly keen in iron and steel, partly owing to the high protective duties in Germany, and the great combination among tho manufacturers, and partly because of the extreme crisis through whtch Germany is passing. German iron and steel has been exported to this country as well as to the United ~tates in immense quantities at m uch below the cost of production. At a r ecent meeting of the shareholders of an iron and coal company the Chairman, speaking of the intensity of foreign competition, said that we were pushed bard by foreign competition " not because we cannot beat the foreigners on even terms, for we can, but because we are pitted against manu ' acturers who, by reason of large protective tariffs at home, are enabled to sell to our customers abroad materially below the cost of production either in their own •country or ours-one article which we produce to the extent of 25,000 tons per annum our competitors in Germany have been seJling at a lo s of upwards of £2 per ton." How far this case is typical or exceptional of course only those in the trade can say, but it is notorious that German manufa.ctor• ers have been selling on an enormous scale below cost price. .At the same time it is to be borne in mind that the injury to British manufacturers is only partial. To those who have not their own stet-1 works, it i~ clearly an advantage to be able to buy blooms and billets at the lowest possible price, and there are many works, in this country so situated. But to the works which can produce steel the competition is of ,course very serious. Orders for new ships during the year have been comparatively few and freights hdve fallen steadily until at the -close they are said in many cases not to pay expenses. The out-turn of new ships is decidedly smaller than for the two •or three years preceding, but it is large, nevertheless, con ~idering bow low freights have been and what an enormous addition to the mercantile marine of the world bas been made recFntly. New orders are comparatively few. Still, it is probable that they will increase rapidly soon. At all events, it is known that some of the greater fleets are to be increased with monster vessels. At the London Colonial wool sales during 1902 tho total sa1es effected amounted to 1,018,906 bales. About 461,000 bal, s were for the United States and the Continent; the home trade took more than half the quantity sold. All thruugh the year the demand for merino wool was exceedingly good and the price ruled high, the continuance of the drought in New ~outh Wales making it certain that the supply of merino will be small for some years to come. On the other band, cross-bred wools, especially of the coarser kinds, were greatly neglected for the mo9t part of the year, and quotations fell to the lowest level ever recorded. Sometimes, indeed, the coarser kinds were ut erly unsalable. Apparently the high price of merino and the exceeding cheapness of cross-breds led to large orders being placed for ,,t he latter kinds of goods. At all events, in the closing months of the year there was a substanUal rise in all qualities of cross-breds, and as the new year opens the prospect is that there will be a further advance. The Continent is a much larger consumer of cross-breds than this country, and the wool trade all over the Continent has been depressed for some years. In Decem '"'er, however, there was some recovery in e~ery department of busines~: both in France and Germany, and possibly this recovery accounts to some extent at all events for the marked advance in quotations for cross-bred~. In the cotton trade there was much difference of opinion in the early months of the year respecting the prob~ble size of the American cotton crop. One party h eld that it would be under 9½ million bales, while the other predicted that it would be over 11 million bales. 'Iha more general opinion was that it would be about 10½ million bales. < onsequently, there was some hesitation in dealing in the early Illonths, .and even though quotations were rapidly driven up in the   https://fraser.stlouisfed.org Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis  1  Unhed States, this country did not follow very eagerly. During the first quarter, indeed, the spinning branch of the cotton industry was depressed so much that working hours were reduced and other measures were taken to alter the situation. During the greater part of the year. however, there were loud complaints from spinners. Toward the dose the position of spinners improved, and in many cases became quite satisfactory. The weaving branch was better off. Still, in no part of the trade was there real prosperity. Our European customers were able to buy less than usual, for all over the Continent there was great depression. The effects of drought and famine in India were ad verse to Lancashire, and so, of course , was the long-continued ·drought in Australia.

FOREIGN IMPORTS  THE COUNTRY'S FO.REIGN TR.A.DE IN 1902. The statement of the country'• foreign trade for the calendar year 1902 reflects quite accurately the industrial conditions which prevailed in the United States during that period of twelve months. On the one hand there is a los■ of •104,673,925 in the merchandise exports, as compared wlth the calendar year preceding, and on the other hand there la an augmentation In merchandise Imports in the sum of t88,901,043. The amaller exports followed directly as the result of the deficient harvests of 1901, diminishing our avallable surplus of some of the countr,'a leading export staples. There wa, another circumstance that operated In the same direction. We refer to the urgency of the home demand for many articles of m~nufactures and merchandise, due to the marvelous prosperity- existing, and which demand made the domestic market for the time being a much better field than the foreign market, cutting off some shipments of goods which under normal conditions would have been made for points abroad. The noteworthy Increase In the Imports Is ascribable to the same state of things. Business was so active In the United States that foreign producers found an unusually Inviting market for their goods and wares here. The falling off In the agrlGultural exports is strikingly illustrated in the matter of corn. The corn crop of 1901 had suffered more disastrously from the drought of that year than any other leading production, and there was literally no corn avaihble for outalde use. Altogether less than 19 million bushels of corn were sent abroad during the twelve months of 1902, against over 102 millions In 1901, 190 millions in 1900 and 206 and 207 millions, respectively, In 1899 and 1898. The little corn that did go out went at high prices of course. Nevertheless, the value of the corn shipments In 1902 was only 11½ million dollars as against 50¼ million dollars in 1901 and 8j-¼ million dollars in 1900. There was also, however, a quite considerable loss In oats. The wheat and 1lour exports continued large {the wheat crop of 1901 having been an exception to the general rule of crop shortage in that season), but even in this instance the outgo fell below the extraordinary amount of the preceding year. Briefly, 212 million bushels of wheat went out in 1902, against 266-¼ millions In 1901 and 183 million bushels in 1900. The average price was a little higher than in the years Immediately preceding. Altogether the breadstuffa shipments had a value of only 1951 million dollars in 1902, as against 2761 mlllion dollars in 1901. 1800• Wheat and flourl902. l90l. lOOO. 1808. bushels •••t, 211,11,5,781 286,286,901 182.925,HS 198,862,885 223.810,258 Ta.Ines .•••.. $165,Sl56,005 ,201,458,506 $138,99!,088 ,uU,529,82:& PQl,709,896 Wheat, av. price. 71!o. 7~ '11!'(c. 1,0.

Furthermore there was a loss of some 13½ million dollars in the shirments of cattle, sheep and hogs. As It happens the cotton shipments too fell below those of the prevbus year, although the crop of 1901-02 proved to be In excess of that of 1900-01. From the table above it will be seen that 6,687,44:1 bales were shipped in 1902, as against 6,963,092 bales in 1901. In value there was a decrease In the cotton exports of about lOj million dollars. It Is a fact, too, that the value of petroleum exports was leBB than In the preceding year, the quantity shipped having been smaller, while at the same time the price realiz:d was not quite so higb. It thus follows that there waa a loss in every one of what are called our leading export staples. Here Is a table comparing the export values of the1e leading staples for the last five years, and also the aggregate of the merchandise exports of all klntls.

This gain in the other export ■ is the more noteworthy as there was a quite considerable falling off in the exports of iron and steel and also of coal. Oar coal shipment■ were valued at only *18,229,009, against 122,022,910 In 1901, showing clearly the effects of the coal sca.rolty produced by the anthracite miners' strike. The Iron and steel exports had a value of 197,892,036, egi{nst $102,53!,575 In 1901 and *129,633,480 in 1900. The extraordinary activity of the iron and steel trades and the high prices prevailing explain this latter falling off. The gain In the "other exports" is due very largely to an extension of the shipments of cotton goods {fol• lowing the subsidence of the troubles in China) and to the resumption of the normal outward movement of copper, which had been checked in 1900 by reason of the artlfl.cial prloe of the metal maintained at that time by the Amalgamated Oopper Company.

It remains to add that the contraction in this item was caused entirely by lower prices, the quantity im• ported bavlng been 3,83! mlllion lbs., against 3,712 million lbs. and 3,767 mlllfon lbs., respectively, in 1901 and 1900. There was also a considerable decline In the imports of coffee, which reached only $64:,167,664, against $70,166,044, the loss In this in1tance following both from smaller qt1antlties and lower prices. The largest gain in any class of imports fs found, as might be expected, in the case of iron and steel, where our tak\nge from abroad are seen to have had a value of Ul,4:68,826 in 1902, against $20,395,016 in 1901. There were also, however, quite considerable increases in imports of silk, of hides, of furs, of fibres, of wool, of wood, of tea, of tin, etc., etc. MERCHANDISE EXPORTS AND IMPORTS (CALENDAR YEARS),  Oal'darYear. 1870 ......... 1871 ......... . l872 ...... . .. 1878 .. .... ... 1874 ......... . 1875 ......... . 1876 .......... 1877 .... . ..... 1878 ..........  1879 .......... 1880 .......... 1881. ....... .. 1882 .......... 1888 ..........  1884 .......... 1886 .......... 1884'.......... 1887 ......... . 1888 • ........ l880 .......... 1890 .......... 1891 .......... 189.2 .......... 1898 .......... 1894 ......... 189:i .......... 1896..........  1807• ., ....... 1898..........  1899 .......... 1900 ......... 1901 ..........  lOOJ ..........  .

It yet was of large proportions-amounting, roughly, to 391f million dollars. DJspite this extensive ba".anoe; which was further added to by our silver exports, the foreign exchange market during 1902 was much llke that of 1901; that is, the greater part of the year exchange rates were close to the export pointJ and an outflow of gold seemed al ways imminent where it wa■ notactnallv in progress. The tension in the money mar• ket and hlih Interest rates prevalllng here are re• sponsible for the fact that our gold imports for the 12 months exceeded the gold exports by 18, 16.2, 7.26, where In 1901 there was a net gold outflow to the amount of *3,022,069. Combining the gold and sUver movements with the merchandise movement, we get the following.

Making full allowance for the yearly amounts due abroad by the United States for freights, undervaluation of imports, etc., there can be only one explana• tlon of such a phenomenal situation. American invest. ments abroad In the purchase of government, muni..: cl pal and other securities are evidently being constantly extended, and more and more money is also all the time being employed In foreign ent_erprlses.

In the tables which follow we furnish a record of the fl.actuations in the rates of exchange on London for each day of the last three years. The tables have been comp1led from daily posted rates of the leading foreign exchange houses in New York. Posted rates are fractionally higher as a rule than those for actual business. Tbe methods of quoting sterling exchange have varied widely in the past, but by the Jaw -of Congress of March 3, 1873, the Custom House valuation of the pound sterling was placed at its true value of •4·8666, and from January 1, 1874, sterling exchange has been quoted accordingly, the quotation when at par being *4·8666. The London Stock Exchange ea"1v in the year 1874 also made a change in its method of quotinst, but valued the dollar at 4s., or about 97¼ cents. This valuation, being 2¼ cents below par, is equal to a quotable premium of about 2¾ per cent, and accordingly the present London quotations of American securities are about 2! per cent above their actual value-a bond worth 100 here being quoted there at 102-f. 1902.

COURSE OF DEBT AND  PRICES.  The following table shows the public debt of the United States from 1793 to 1902, inclusive. In the year 1856, and subsequently, the totals given are the net amount of debt (not including accrued interest) less the balance of coin and currency in the Treasury. Bonds issued to the Pacific railroads are not included in the statement. For some of the years the figures printed below do not agree with those reported in the monthly debt statements issued by the Government, as a change in the form of the statement was made several times. We give the results on the same basis for all the years. The totals are for January 1 of each year from 1793 to 184:3, inclusive, and for July 1 (close of the fiscal year) since · 18'4, inclusive. The debt was at its highest on August 31, 1866, when it amounted to '2,766,431,571. UNITED STATES DEBT 1793 TO 1902,  Year.  Amount .

It is proper to say that the augmentation in the net debt at this period would have been much heavier than ·that recorded by these figures ($1,052,085,492) except that during the fiscal yea.r the Government reoeived $60,201,885 cash from the Union Pacific sale, only $29,904,952 of which went to redeem maturing Pacific Railroad bonds.

In the f9llowing tables are shown the high.est and lowest prices of U. S. Government seourlties for er.ch month from 1880 to 1902, inclusive. In the drst-mentloned yeiu the total debt was almost nominal. Then followed the war period till April, 1865; thence th.a period of speculation untll September, 1873; thence the period of recuperation till the resumption of gold payments on January 1, 1879, and the subsequent funding of the maturing bonds into new bonds at 4½, 4, 3½, 3 per cent, and :finally in September, 1891, the extension of ' ½sat 2 per cent, payable at option. In 1894 a somewhat different era began with the issue of 100 million dollars of 10-year 5 per cent bonds to meet d e:fiotenciea in revenue and make good the depletion of the gold reserve, followed by the issne in 1895 of t62,300,000 of thirty-year 4 per cent bonds, under the cel~brated contract with the Morgan-Belmont Syndicate, to protect the gold reserve, and another issue of 100 million dollars for the same purpose in February, 1896. In 1898 the war with Spain led to the issue of t200,000,000 of new 3 per cents. In 1900 refunding of the existing debt (all except the 4s of 1925) Into new 2 per cent console was urovlded under the Gold Standard Law. This refunding progressed untU December 31, 1900, when the Secretary suspended the privilege. The extended 2 per cents were paid off. Sinking Fund purchase■ continue to reduce the outstanding amounts of the various issues from year to year. I S60. JANUARY FEBR'RY.  ---  SECURITIES.  -  MAY.  APRIL.  MARCH.  JUNE.  JULY.  AUGUST.

In the article on this and following pages we furnish a very full and comi-lete review of the course of eaTnings of United States railroads for the calendar year 1902, with the influences and conditions bearing on the same. As a preliminary, however, we present some general stattstlos to show the course of operations in the past. The following two tables have be~n prepared from Poor's Manual. Litterly the Inter-State Commerce Commission has begun to publish very extensive stati11tlcs regarding the railroads, but the record in this case does not as yet extend back very far and the complete report is ]ate in making Its appearance. The first of the two tabl£ s we give indicates the new construction each year and the total length of road at the end (December 31) of the year. The changes in total mileage from year to year, it will be observed, do not agree with the additions through new construction. This is due to the fact that the Manual finds it necesl!ary to ·make adjustments and corrections of past mileage and to the furt~r fact that some old mileage ta abandoned from time to time. There were on January 1., 1903, roughly, 204,000 miles in the country. The· second table shows the changes In stock, debt, earnings, etr., since 1879. It is proper to say that in this case the figures are not for the end of the calendar Jear, but to the end of the fiscal years of the respective companies. The results include the operations of the elevated roads in New York City and_ Brooklyn in some of the ea1lter but not in any of the more recent vears.

The great favoring in:fl aence of the twelve months, as In the years immediately preceding, was the uninterrupted prosperity and activity of industrial Interests as a whole-a prosperity and activity ,so pronounced that even such Important drawbacks -as fuel scarcity and grain shortage could not hold the 1orward movement In check. Thie trade activity caused a further Increase in merchandise traffic and -in general freight and also a further increase in the volume of passenger buslneBS. The Iron and steel trades WAre prosperous almost beyond measure. As a consequence a great increase oo • curred in the shipments of ore and other raw materials and also a large expansion In the movements of the manufactured articles. F11rthermore, this and the activity of other industrial Interests brought a great Increase in the shipments of coal; we mean the ■hlp­ ments of bltumtnone coal, anthracite coal being a feature in industrial affairs only on the Atlimtic Coast. The situation as to the volume of tonnage was illustrated in the congestion of freight at P1ttsburg with which the Ptmnaylvanla Railroad Company had to struggle, and which got so bad In November that special efforts on the part of President Cassatt alone prevented a complete blockade. Shipments of Iron ore by water from the L-1ke Superior re~lon in the seaiion of 1902 amounted to 27,039,169 tons, as against only 20,167,622 tons in the season of 1901 and 18,670,316 tons Jn ~the season of 1900. H l)re was a gain of not far from 60 per cent in two years, which meant a very large increase in the traffic of the roads carry Ing the ore to the head of the lakes; again It meant a large expansion in traffic over the distrlbutlni roads moving the tonnage from the Lake Erle receiving ports · to the points of final destination at the furnaces. An Idea of the expan• alon in the coal tonnage is furnished In the case of the shipments over the Pannsylvanla Riilroad. This important system had its anthracite tonnage cut just about in two-that is the shipments were diminished, roughly, 2¼ million tons. On the other hand, Its bituminous coal tonnage was augmented 6½ mlllion tons and its coke tonnage 1¼million tons, so that altogether the system east of Plttsburah and Erie moved 6 mlllion tons more of coal and coke in 1902 than In 1901-38 million tons say, against 32 million tons. We have returns of earnings for t!ie full twelve months from 168,019 miles of railroad In this country. On this mileage gross earnings show an increase as compared with the twelve months preceding of 191,999,218. We have returns from a few thousand miles more of roads which have as yet reported for only 11 months of the year. Combining these with the others we get an aggregate increase in the sum of 93 million iollar■, or 6·41 per cent, the Increase in extent of road .-:,perated having been 2,764 miles, or l •64: per cent, as will be e~en bv the followin£?".

Onr figures in all these instances cover merely the roads from which we have found it possible to procure returns. The mlleage represented in 1902 ls, as we have seen, 170,395 miles. Taking 200,000 as, roughly, the mUeaJ;te of the entire railroad system of the country, It will be seen that 30,000 miles do not fi od representation in our compilation. By far the greater portion of the missing mileage is located in .New Eogland, where the roads do not furnish monthly returns. We should judge that for the whole United States the increase In groBB earnings in 1902 over 1901 must have been about 106 million dollars. 0 a a prevlou1 occasion we estimated the gain In 1901 at 165 million dollars; that for 1900 at 120 millions; that for 1899 at HO mllltons; that for 1898 at 90 millions, and that for 1897 at 75 million dollars. For the last six years, therefore, the aggregate Increase baa reached the enorm 1us figure of 685 million dollar,. In other words, the aggregate of groBB earnings of United States railroad• In 1902 was that much larger than the corresponding aggregate six years before, in 1S96. What such an addition of nearly 700 mUllon dollars means in the yearly groBB Income of the railroad system of the United States everybody is able to judge fo~ himself, and It ls unnecessary for u1 to enlarge upon the point. In one particular 1902 differed .from the years immediately preceding. The gains In gross receipts were largely ab1orbed by augmented expenses. We need hardly tell the reader that this did not follow !rom any rate war or cutting in rates. Rite schedules were In fact well maintained throughout the year, Injunctions granted at the instance of the United States Government having been instrumental to that end. The augmentation In expenses was directly the result of a higher operating cost-enhanced price■ for material, supplles, fuel, eto., and also of wages. It is proper to say that this last factor-higher wageswill count as a still more prominent factor In the affairs of 1903. Ia November the Pcmnsylva.nia Railroad management announced a voluntary advance in wages of 10 per cent In the case of all employee getting less than t2,,oo a year, and this step was quickly  RAILROAD EAR:NINGS.  followed by other rallroadd -throughout the country, that 1903 finds wages of railroad employee pretty ~enerally higher. It is to be added allo that the fact that the traffic offering was so greatly in excesa of the facilities for handling it did not permit dae economy in the movement ol the same, so that-operating cost was increased In that way also. The precise extent to which the large gains in gross earnings were offdet by augmented expenses it will not be possible to state until all the net earnings returns for D dOember have come in., which wlll not be for four or five weeks yet. The general trend is revealed In the case of the com pil :t• tlons previously presented for the months of October and November., which showed in each case an augment-atlon in expenses in excess of gains in gross receipts. As concerns the shrinkage in the grain tonnage., we would direct attention to the following taoh showing the receipts of grain at the seaboard. It wlll be observed that the corn receipts for tb.e 62 weeks ending December 27 were only a little over 26 millions In 1902, as against 106 mlllions ln)901 and nearlJ 202 millions in 1899. There were losses., too., in nearly all the other cereala., so that the aggregate receipts of wheat., corn., oats, barley and rye for 1902 reachEd not quite 221 million bushels, against 843 millions in 1901, 380 millions in 1900 and over 430 million bushtils in 1899. In other words., ae compared with three years before the lose wae almost 210 million bushel:!. 10  GRAIN AND FLOUA RECEIPTS AT SEABOARD,  1902.

For the 52 week~ the aggregate of the wheat, corn, oats., barley and rye deliveries at these Western markets was only 578,721,4:U b11shels, as against 642,'142)122 basµels in 1901., 661.,17B,841 bushels in 1900, 685,846,624 bushels in 1899 and 693,447.,395 bushels in 1898. The wheat receipts were almost up to those of the preceding year, but in corn there was a heavy contraction., with losses in some of the other cereals. · The extent of the falling off in the West ls perhaps best Indicated by taking the movement to Chicago. At that point we have the results for the even year., and the result ls an aggregate for 1902 of 185,498,184 bushels., as against 245,4:4:0.,273 bushels in 1901., 264:,49,,886 bushels) In 1900 and 293,153,516 bushels in 1899. The contraction in the grain movement was not the only loss in tonnage that followed as the result of the deficient harvests of 1901. O.aly 8,396,261 head of hogs were brought into Chicago in 1902., as against 8,903,223 In 1901. Taking the live-stock move• ment as a whole at Chicago, that is cattle., calves., hogs, sheep and horses, the deliveries comprised 278,100 car-loads in 1902, as against 291,741 car-loads in 1901. At Omaha the live-stock deliveries appeared to have been somewhat larger than In 1901, but at the Kansas City stock-yards the showing was much the sa_me as at Ohicago, deliveries being 117., 730 carloads., against 134,958 oar-loads. The cotton movement at the South as measured by the receipts at the Southern outports did not   https://fraser.stlouisfed.org Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis  69  greatly vary 1n the two years, though some of the separate port,, notably G3ilveston, antlered soma contraction. The Southern port receipts were 7,383,966 bales In 1902 and '1,311,240 bales in 1901. The ship• ments overland were 1,674:,026 bales in 1902, against 1,689,104 bales In 1901., 1,737,903 bales in 1900 and 2,060,671 bales in 1899. It is a noteworthy fact that the improvement In earnings continued through all the months of the year. Ia Ftibruary and Much, and particuhrly In the first-mentioned month., exceedingiy bad weather wae encountered-the worst In years-and as a conse• quence the gtilns In earnings were greatly reduced; still they were not altogether wiped out. D 11rlng the period of the strike the anthracite coal roads su1tained very heavy decreases, and some of the other Eistern roads at this time also suffered by reason of the fact that comparison was with the Pd.n-American Exposition in 1901. Our Industries., however., remained in a state of 6 reat activity, and in some of the closing months also the grain movement made an improved comparison with 1901. H ence no interruption to the monthly increases occurred. In fact the ra"tic of gain in earnings for Dacember was the best of any month of. the year, with the single exception of that for AprU. It remains to b& said that, besides the strike at the anthracite mines, the roads in Virginia and West Virginia suffdred from a strike of the bituminous miners; this, though., while severely reducing the earnings of the Cheaapeake & Ohio., had oo visible etlc:ict on the Norfolk & Western-which., indeed, ga\ned heavily as a result of the contraction of the shipments over the Chesapeake & Ohio.
