option by our agreement of November 17 to sell to

Mr. W. L. Scott, we pr..pose to sell him the certificates under our control at 100, with a partial payment down and the balance, with taterest at 5 per
cent, from Januiry 1 next until paid, to be secured
by the certificates sold and additional collateral,
coupled with the condition that he should be bound
to purchase on the same terms all other certlflrates
which might be oHered him within thirty days. This
condition was objected -o on the ground that it imposed the «»bligatl(m to purchase an IndeHnlte
amount of certificates without giving the right to
call for any. In justice to the clients we represent,
we cannot In any future negotiations we' may make
Include any certltlcutes which shall not have been
Itlaced under the control of the Bondholders' Ccunraittee in accordance with thy terms of the notice

which will render them Incapable of sinking. Contrasted with tho ordinary wooden steamboats, they
cannot fail to command, at highly remunerative

traveling public.

The Company has entered Into contracts extending over a term cf years, under which It baa
acquired the exouslve right to convoy passengers
from New York and Its vicinity to the Iron Pier at
Coney Island, and a similar exclusive right to convey passengers to Coney Island In conaectlOD with
one of the leading railroads to that place. In view
of the vast number of people who visit this famous
Summer resort, it Is evident that a line of steimboats possessing these exclusive privileges, constructed In such manner as to command the highest
degree of public confidence, and furnished In response to an urgent public demand, must at once
prove very profitable.

There has been expended on this property, in round figures,
some ?35,000,000 in cash, and the encumbrances are hardly
more than nominal. On this exhibit, and all the facts above
stated, the syndicate, composed of Messrs. Drexel, Morgan &
Co. and their associates, undertakes the negotiation of a 40year 6 per cent gold loan, at $25,000 per mile, secured on the
whole property, the proceeds of the loan to be closely applied
to the construction of the company's unfinished lines. The

dating Oct. 1, amount to but one million. These are now being
marketed at 95, mo.stly, however, in Cincinnati. The subscription
that is now being taken is to build the St. Louis extension of 250
miles through the lodiana coal fields and some of the richest

about $3,000,000, and for $9,000 subscribed $10,000 of first-mortgage 6 per cent bonds, $5,000 of 6 per cent incomes and $5,000

FRIDAY, DEC. 31, 1880-5 P. IW.
The noner Market aud Financial .Sltnatlou, The
markets close with unshaken strength and buoyancy on the most
prosperous business year ever experienced in the tinited States.

Our space is too limited in this rej^ort to comment at
lenffth upon the various phases presented during the year, but
in the last quarter, and since the elections were settled, the great
and conspicuous feature has been the growing confidence in the
resources of the country, as exhibited in the public sentiment at
home and abroad. The Stock Exchanges are thermometers
showing the current opinion of moneyed men in regard to the
condition and prospects of business. The bonds and shares dealt
in merely represent real estate in the shape of railroads, or
promises to pay, as in the case of Government bonds, State bonds,
city bonds, &c.
In either case the value depends almost entirely upon the capacity to get income, and this again depends upon
the general state of business prosperity among the people. These
are but truisms, and yet they have a very direct bearing upon the
range of prices to-day and in the future. The prevailing idea
that the United States Goveinment is so sure of a permanent
income that it can negotiate a long-term bond, carrying only 3
per cent interest, shows unlimited confidence in the status of the
country, and it has been a strong influence, pushing up everything at the Stock Boards during many months past.
It is not desirable to take a rose-colored view of the business
situation which is not warranted by the actual facts; but even
accepting thLs basis, it may fairly be said that the appearance of
commercial and financial affairs throughout the ceuntry at the
close of this year is one of sound and healthy prosperity, which
has never been equaled.
The danger ahead, whenever it may develop, can hardly spring
from any inherent weakness or rottenness existing at the present
moment, but is more likely to arise from going too fast. Some rail_

roads may be built which cannot earn their interest; wheat may
be grown (with all the new land) till the price goes to 80@9b
cent« in New York; general confidence may carry things upward
nntil stocks sell at 80 which have no rea.sonable hope of dividends
for ten years at least. The demand for loans on new enterprises
may be so rapid that money will command 1-32 per day for
months together. All these possibilities are worth a passing
notice.

—

In the money market there have been two currents the upper
current which, on account of the loans called in from stock brokers
for dividend and interest pajinents on January 3, caused them
to pay 6 per cent plus 1-32 to 1-16 per day
while the under
current of the market represented its true condition in a decided
feeling of greater ease and abundance of money next week, and
enabled Gtovernment bond dealers to borrow at 4 per cent.

Boston & Maine Eastern. The Boston Advertiser says :
" Negotiations looking to the establishment of strictly mutual
business relations between the Boston & Maine and Eastern RR.
companies have recently been revived, and there is good prospect that an arrangement satisfactory to all parties will soon be
arrived at. The movement, if consummated in the manner
proposed, will, however, come much short of consolidation, of
which there is not even a remote prospect." * * * " Any exact
estimate it wonld be impossible to give, but the annual saving
will not be less than $200,000 per annum and may amount to
$400,000. The receipts of business as thus conducted are to be
divided between the corporations in the ratio of the respective
total earnings of the two of the past three years."

ice in our harbor adds to the difllculties of the mtuation.
In
other respects there is nothing to complain of, all the conditions seeming to favor a full and pro.sperous trade during 1881.
The provision market has been variable, but as a rale the
tone presented and the course of prices has been slightly upward. A renewed speculative interest is reported, and, notwithstanding the failures at the West, the position is prettywell maintained. Pork to-day, oa the spot, was more active
for export, at $12 50(gi$13 for old mess; new quoted at $14; no
sales and no regular prices for future contracts.

tual repudiation of the obligations of the company. In the
case of the improvement bonds, which matured on November 1,
no action looking to their payment has been made. The holders claim that the funds with which these bonds should have
been paid have been misappropriated by the Receivers, inasmuch as the agreement with the railroad company is that five
cents shall be set apart for each ton of coal carried as a fund
for the liquidation of the principal and interest.
On December 21 the Receivers of the Philadelphia & Reading Railroad, at their meeting, took up the complaint of holders
of improvement bonds of the Schuylkill Navigation Company,
but no definite action was taken, as the Receivers assert that
the Schuylkill Navigation bonds must be considered in the same
light as other obligations of the bankrupt company.

C.I—Judge Bond has ordered

this railroad to be sold on the first Monday in April next. The
flase in which this decision was made was tried in the United
States Circuit Court at Charlotte, North Carolina. The principal que.stion involved was whether the mortgage bonds were to
be postponed to the claims of contractors and to mechanics'
liens, which latter were filed subsequent to the execution of the
mortgage deed. Judge Bond held that the mortgage bonds
were entitled to priority, and ordered the railroad to lie sold by
the trustees of the mortgage deed.

to-night of 223,234 bales as compared with the same date of 1879,
an increase of 268,966 bales as compared with 1878, and an increase of 220,902 bales as compared with 1877.
In the preceding visible supply table we have heretofore only
included the interior stocks at the seven original interior towns.
As we did not have the record of the new interior towns for the
fdor years, we cotdd not make a comparison in any other way.
That difficulty no longer exists, and we therefore make the foU
lowing comparison, which includes the stocks at the nineteen
towns given weekly in otrr table of interior stocks instead of only
the ola seven towns. "We shall continue this double statement for

week a better export demand for
the leading shipping grades of flour, and prices, though without quotable improvement, have been more regular and steady.
Large lines of common to good extras have been taken for Great
Britain and the West Indies, at prices ranging from $4 25(5
^5 50. The snow storm, and its probable detention of supplies,
caused a firm market yesterday, notwithstanding the subsidence of the export demand. Rye flour, corn meal and buckwheat flour have ruled in favor of buyers. To-day holders
of wheat flour were firmer, but trade was slow.
The wheat market has been variable, but on the whole less
de]6ressed. The export demand has been more active, favored
by a better supply of freight room and some reduction in rates.
Supplies have come forward less freely and foreign advices
ruled stronger. Yesterday there was a good business, including No. 2 red winter at $1 16@$1 17 on the spot, $1 19@$1 19%
for February, $1 21@$1 21?4 for March and ?1 21^@$1 21M for
May; and No. 1 white at $1 14(9$1 14>i on me spot and
$1 1754(g>$l 18 for March; but the close was at inside prices. No.
2 spring Chicago and Milwaukee sold to a moderate extent
at |1 15(g)$l 17. To-day winter wheats were l^i@'2e. higher,
with a brisk speculation, stimulated by Western advices.
Indian corn has had a downward tendency, with some irregularity. Yesterday No. 2 mixed on the spot was quoted at
57c, for old and 54^(^550, for new, with optioa dealings in "No.

the dry goods market the past week, buyers having apparently determined to
defer operations until the commencement of the new year.
There was, however, a fair demand for a few descriptions of
spring goods (for future delivery) and in this connection satisfactory orders were placed with agents representing popular
FiUDAT,

P. M..

The usual holiday quiet has prevailed

in

makes of ginghams, shirting prints, lawns, piques, &c. The
tone of the market has retained its firmness, and while staple
cotton and woolen goods are uniformly steady in price, the
week has developed a better demand for printing cloths, at
slightly advanced quotations.
Domestic Cottos Goods. The export movement in cotton goods

—

has been of fair proportions, 3,133 packages having been shipped
from this port during the week ending Dec. 23, including 1,553
to China, 623 to Great Britain, 376 to United States of ColomThe business
bia, 239 to Hayti, 78 to Brazil, 76 to Mexico, &c.
in cotton goods was comparatively light, and the market presented no new features of interest. Leading makes of plain and
colored cottons are in most cases sold to arrive, and prices
remain firm at unchanged quotations. Printing cloths were
