PLETHORA OF CAPITAL

who are perhaps rather premature, are
troubling themselves about the probable accumulation of
capital in this city as indicated, both by the bank state¬
ments of the lasc two weeks and by the reports as to the
probable exhibit of to-day. What is really to be regretted
is not so much the accumulation of capital as the rapid flow
of cuirency to the banks of this city from theJr correspond¬
ents in the interior.
This influx has started sooner than
usual this year for several reasons, to which we need not
specially refer; and it has already begun to show its influ¬
ence in the speculative activity for which the cliques tried
to prepare the way by the recent bear raid at the Stock
Exchange. There is hope that some of the inequalities
may be corrected in the working of the money market, and
that the spasmodic irregularities which have been complained

private bankers have thus been acquiring, in times of mone¬

It is because of these high rates

of this city.

that thb banks there being unable to make use of their funds
so as to command four per cent interest, are glad to lend
these funds at that rate to New York.
There is another conspicuous evil arising out of the
heavy deposits of funds from the interior banks. When
business begins to be brisk in the country, these country
deposits are suddenly withdrawn, depleting the reservois of
the money market here, and aiding in the production of
monetary trouble.

Some of these disinter¬

These they sold out at the

back interest, these adroit speculators are declared to have
made further short sales to Harge amounts, with a view to
depress the market and cause a panic, which should spread
to other securities and create a general downward rush in
all kinds of values.

Now is the time to put the finances of the road

necessitated a vast increase in the outlay for construction.
The engineering difficulties were appalling and surpass any¬
thing ever surmounted before. The enterprise was begun
amidst the darkest financial troubles of the war. Money
was hard to get and the road while building was liable to be
wanted for military purposes, and if delayed by the Com¬
pany it might be hurried to completion by the government
under the 17th section of the act of 1862. These and other
circumstances caused capital to shrink from investing
itself in a Pioneer railroad
with such heavy cer¬
tain outlay and
such light and uncertain dividends.
With these facts in view, we do not think it a case for the
investigation of Congress that the Union Pacific Railroad
Company has run up its cost to 115 millions, that its shares
represent $36,745,000, and that it has issued 10 millions of
Income Bonds, besides Land Grant Bonds to the amount of
$9,856,000, and a floating debt variously estimated from 3
to 5 millions.

Douglass, the acting Commissioner at Washington,
has kindly furnished us with advanced sheets of the Com
missioners’ Report for 1870. We are thus enabled at so
early a period to publish the tables which we give below.
The first table is a detailed statement of the receipts of
internal revenue during the last three years, with the per
centage in 1870 from each specific source, in proportion to
the total receipts of that year. The returns for previous
years will be found in the Chronicle of January 15, 1870,
pages 70, &c.
Per

We do not believe in the policy of Govern¬
ment interference in private enterprises.
What is needful
is for the company to regenerate and disenthrall itself, to
take its business in its own hands, and withdraw it from
the hands of incompetency, extravagance and shiftlessness.
The Union Pacific people complain of the stupendous obsta.
cles they had to overcome in building their road, but they
will not tell us that these difficulties were greater than those
of the Central Pacific road, which was built at the same
time, and crosses the formidable Sierra Nevada. With the
same
sagacity and financial skill which have signalized the
conservative management of the sister road, the Union
Pacific may soon win similar prosperity and high repute.

with the result of rates on call loans much above the legal
a severe interruption of discounting operations.
Con¬
an occasion of general disturbance of confidence in
speculative loans arose out of embarrassments in the affairs of
some of the leading directors of the Union Pacific Railroad.
The
demand of the Secretary of the Treasury for the payment of the
back interest on the subsidy bonds of the company was accom¬
panied by a severe speculative attack upon its stocks and bonds,
and some of the wealthiest directors, having hypothecated their
securities, w^ere compelled either to make special arrangements
with their creditoi’3 or to suspend payment. Mr. Oakes Ames sus¬
pended with liabilities amounting to nearly eight millions ; and
this failure caused several others, including the firm of Oliver
Ames & Sons.
These occurrences produced an uneasy feeling and
especial caution toward all credits connected with speculative
undertakings. These events gave occasion for a free indulgence
of the croaking which appears to be germane to the last month
of the year ; nevertheless, the condition of affairs, otherwise, was

rency,

the monetary irregularities which

The
usual outflow of money to Chicago, Cincinnati and the South,
coming upon a comparatively low condition of the lawful money
reserves of the
banks, placed the loan market in a situation to be
readily affected by artificial expedients for making a severe
stringency, and resort was, therefore, taken to locking up cur*

balance.
At the close of the month some consideration was shown
for the condition of the market by increasing the January pur¬
chases of Five-Twentiea $2,000,000 over those of December, while
the o-old sales were letained at the same amount.
The intended
relief from this source, however, came too late to be of service, as
the market just then began to recover from ordinary causes.
United States bonds were, on the whole, decidedly
buoyant,
prices steadily advancing through a stringency in money which
depressed all other securities. This firmness appears to have been
simply a natural reaction from the exceptionally low prices late
ruling, and a growing conviction that the market is not likely to
be early affected by any early effort at refunding the debt.

the Franco-Prussian war, are eminently satisfactory, being an

which no financial house stands higher in reputation for substance, weight and
honorable dealing. The bonds are issued in a definite proportion to the road
actually completed, and certified thereto by the President and the Superin¬
tendent. The tow'ns and cities which have lent their aid to this enterprise by
subscribing, in their corporate capacity, $6.500,000 capital stock, are restrained
by a, legal enactment from disposing of the stock without the consent of a
majority of the individual tax-payers. The trustees of the mortgage are
Messrs. A. A. Low, George Opdyke, and Delos De Wolfe. Two hundred and
twenty miles of the road are now completed and in operation, and making
actual earnings more than enough to meet the current mortgage indebtedness.
The grading for the entire road is nearly finished.
Here are assurances of the most tangible character that the year 1871 will
witness the triumphant completion, upon a basis of the utmost financial se¬
curity, of another great through route from the metropolis to the West. It is
a road which will win from the start its share of the through traffic, which,
vast as it now is, must inevitably increase immensely with the general pros¬

For railroad bonds there

and well known bonds have been made at the board.
Pacific rail¬
road securities, however, have been the leading feature of the
market. Central Pacifies have been strong and close at 90£.
LTnion Pacifies have been feverish and excited with frequent
fluctuations, closing this afternoon at 74^r for the firsts, 5Gf for the
land grants, and 374 @ 384 for the incomes, showing a. advance of
from 2 to 3 per cent, on prices of last week.
The chief question
in regard to these bonds now seems to be as to the management of
the property, and a meeting of the -directors and large holders is
to be held in Boston next week, when it is supposed some plan
will be adopted for the better protection of tlie interests of stock
and bond owners,—the public certainly has much confidence in
rtbe Union Pacific railroad under a good management.
The following are the highest and lowest prices of the most
active State Bonds at the Board on each day of the week:

heavy disbursements

and dividends which have been made since the

first ot

January, and with the cessation of artificial measures for
making money stringent, the market has shown a Steady ten¬
dency towards easier rates, and to-day the supply of loanable
funds was abundant at 0 and 7 per cent, with exceptions at 5 per
cent, on Government collaterals. 8ix per cent., however, has now
been a fair quotable rate for several days, and renewals of con¬
tracts have generally been at this rate.
The last statement of the associated banks, issued on Saturday,
January Till, showed the following changes from the previous
week, viz.: an increase of $2,100,009 in loans; an increase of
$5,529,345 in specie: a decrease of $38,790 in circulation; an
increase of $13,814,830 in deposits, and an increase-of $3,780,052
in legal tenders.
fi his statement showed very fully the disburse¬
ments and release of “ locked up” funds above refered to, and as a
result, that the banks were $5,871,389 stronger in their legal
reserves, holding altogether $10,851,210 above the 25 per cent,
required by law. The banks are now complaining of a glut of

National bank notes.

Exchange.—There has been a decided firmness in the
market since our last report, and rates at the close today are the
highest of the week. This firmness has been produced rather by
a scarcity of bills
offering than by an unusually large demand,
and the effect has been to bring up tlie prices of commercial and
other bills within a small fraction of tlie best bankers’ names.

toriously high prices. What became of the balance of $13,000,000 or $23,000,000 of stock we are not informed ; nor does it in any
way appear that any adequate value was rendered for it to the
road. * ,* * In order to build other roads by a similar process,
the larger holders of the securities have pledged their bonds and
stocks, and upon margins which held out a strong temptation for
other parties to attack the market for the securieties, either as a
speculation, or for the purpose of getting control of the road.
** *
*
The depredation of the securities has exhausted the
margins on the directors’ loans, and they retain their stock and
bonds only by the sufferance of their creditors.
With their se¬
curities thus placed beyond their power, and with what other means
they possess locked up in other speculations, they are unable to
protect themselves. One who holds $6,000,000 of stock, has sus¬
pended, carrying with him several firms implicated in his specula¬
tions ; and another who owns $5,400,000 stock, has suffered serious
inconvenience through tlie price falling much below the figures
at which he had hypothecated it; while three other directors,
holding each $2,000,000, have been similar inconvenienced. These
are the facts as to the operations and position of the
directors, so
far as we are able to learn from the best sources outside the
ring.” * * * They have piled up a floating debt of about
five millions of dollars, all of which matures within the next three
months.
A large proportion of this has been borrowed in the
lorm of foreign exchange ; but the whole is protected by collaterales.
Among the securities hypothecated against this debt are
$2,000,000 of Land Grant bonds; $2,000,000 of Income bonds;
$300,000 of Colorado Central Railroad bonds, and $700,000 Omaha
Bridge bonds. At the present market value of these securities,
they fail to cover the loans by about one third of the principal.
It is evident, therefore, that the worst crisis both for the directors
and the Company has yet to come.
The $1,358,000 bonds received
from the Central Pacific Road have been already sold ; and we are
credibly informed that the Company has no available securities
with which to strengthen its collaterals on floating loans, even if
the lenders were disposed to extend them.
It has, moreover, to
provide for the maturing of $10,000,000 of Income bonds between

changed, hut the close was steady. Monday prices opened
strong, with -|c. advance, hut the movement through the day
was small.
Tuesday tlie maiket was strong at ic. advance, with
sales of 5,027 hales.
Wednesday the receipts at the ports being
more free, and Liverpool showing no tendency to advance fur¬
ther, there was less doing at ^c. decline, Thursday the quota¬
tions were unchanged, but the market was dull and heavy.
And
to-day, with the total receipts at the ports somewhat less than
the estimates of two days since, the feeling is better again, and
although there is no change in the quotations the close was firm
15dc. for Middling Uplands, or an improvement of dc. since last
Friday.
There lias been a marked scarcity during the week
of good lots, suitable for American spinners’ use, and they have
been held rather above tlie market, not obtainable, except at full
quotations. For future'delivery the fluctuations during the week
have been about ^c., and the close to-night shows an improve¬
ment since our last report of about i(J|c., the closing rates being
for January, 14f ; February, 15 ; March, 15 3-1G ; April, 154.
The total sales of this description for the week (including 8.900
hales free on board, but not including bales “ Exchanged ”) have
been 56,150 bales. For immediate delivery the total sales foct. up
this week 23,953 bales, including 2,127 hales to arrive, of which
5,718 bales were taken by spinners, 202 hales on speculation,
14,93G bales for export, and 3,097 hales in transit. The following

Friday, P. M,

The market the

past week has

January 13, 1871

shown considerable excitement,

especially in flour and wheat, and prices have advanced, closing in
highest figure yet paid for tlie new crop.
The receipts of flour have been quite moderate and there has
been rather more export demand, notwithstanding the quotation
from Liverpool was reduced to 26s. The demand was not only
for Great Britain but the Continent, and was evidently caused by
requirements of the armies of the European belligerents. The
improved export demand stimulated some speculation, and the
home trade bought more freely; the lower grades of Western Extras
and prime Winter Wheat experienced a decided improvement; in
fact, good lines of baker’s brands have sold at $6 00®)6 75, which
were recently a drug in the market at $6 10@6 25.
Prices for
favorite brands of Extra State are scarcely offered at all. To-day

but somewhat unsettled; shippers
would buy good lines of extra State at $6 25(5)6 35, but found no
sellers to any extent under $6 40(5)6 50.
Wheat, notwithstanding the decline reported by cable, has been
in good export demand at steadily advancing prices, buyers being
favored by a decline of l@2d. in ocean freights, and by firmer
market

was

stronger

leading styles of West Tndia have met with an improved demand from the
trade in view of their relative cheapness, and some pretty large movements
have concentrated the bulk of the desirable supplies, on which an advance of
X@Jc. is now asked. There does not appear to he quite so many exporters
looking for St. Domingo stock, but full former figures are as a rule asked.
Jobbers in all cases are busy and in small lots a goodly amount of coffee is
going out. The wholesale transactions embrace 15,401 bags Rio; 300 bags
Bahia; 7,500 bags Maracaibo ; 5.850 bags Laguayra; 150 lags Jamaica; 3.500
bags St. Domingo ; 5,000 mats Java on Boston account. Sales at Baltimore of
1,570 bags Rio.
Imports of Rio this week have included the following cargoes : “ St. Deyenick,” 5,000 bags; “Ida.” 3,707 bags; and “Mars,” 3,880 bags. Of other
sorts the imports have included 3.218 bags St. Domingo, per steamer “ City of

parcels over due failing to come to hand. Buyers are constantly to be found
i n the market and exhibit a gratifying amount of anxiety, some to such an
extent as to put up with old stock after failing in their endeavors to secure
new crops.
All kinds are wanted and prices rule very strong and buoyant,
though any distinction made should probably be in favor of Greens, some
qualities of which show an actual advance. The call for lines has been good,
but business somewhat restricted by the delay in getting parcels out of bonded

gained strength if anything, and the position is

encouraging for the selling interest. The stock not only here but at all
the outposts is contracted to a remarkably small aggregate, with comparatively
few cargoes immediately due ; buyers are in constant attendance looking for
desirable parcels, and everything seems to indicate that it merely requires a
larger and better assorted offering to at once increase the volume of business.
The demand is entirely from the regular trade, no speculative movements thus




reported, and it is quite certain that current sales are going into
actual consumption. Since our last further advices have been received from
Rio Janeiro, reporting continued very fair movements on United States ac¬

We find no great change on the markets for foreign qualities and no fresh or
interesting points to advise. Holders generally have opposed any further reduc¬
tion in cost considering that the lower duties were fully discounted weeks ago,
and to a certain extent the position is steady but in reality quotations can be
little better than nominal at present in view of the small volume of trade.
There has been a little call but only for small, unimportant lots, as a rule, and

buyers do not show any inclination to depart from this system of ©Derations ;
for tbe present. In domestic the arrivals have again been free, and the sale so

following shows the quantity afloat for the United States by the latest
advices, and which have not yet arrived :
The

The low prices current for most articles has led to in¬
creased consumption, and stocks have decreased rapidly. Raisins have met
with a steady fair trade demand, but no especial activity or excitement can be
noted, holders are firm, demanding $2 67KT for Layers. Currants on the spot
are scarce and higher; to arrive, the movement continues fairly active, and a
slight improvement in prices is quoted. Sales for the week foot up fully 3,000
bbls., to arrive, at 5c. gold and 8@8K'c. gold duty paid.
Turkish Prunes have
pold quite freely, those coming under our notice amount to about 400 casks
ati)K@ffKc., currency. Sardines have apparently awakened from their long
continued inactivity and a considerable trade has been done in them at 17®
17^c. gold for quarters, and 28@28^c. for halves. Nuts'have been in only fair
demand. Figs are rather quiet. Citron sells slowly, but is held firm at 39c.
Foreign Green meet with fair demand; the supply of lemons is still limited,
and former high prices rule; one or two cargoes of Malagas have arrived since
our last, most of which sold at private sale at $9 per box.
The market is well
supplied with Oranges, both inboxes and barrels, the demand is pretty good,
however, and prices rule about as before. We quote box Oranges from store
repacked or in good order at $2 75@3 25 per box; Valencia, $8 50 3,9 25 per case;
Porto Rico per bbl, $7@8, and Havana, $6(g)7 per bbl. Baracoa Cocoanuts are
in fair request at $40@45 per M.
A cargo of Aspiuwall Bananas has arrived
since our last, and sell in lots at $2 3,2 50 per bunch for average lots, and $3

Domestic Dried are firm for Apples, with a fair amount of trade doing in a
small way. Receipts are quite moderate, and as the stock held here is not
very large, holders have increased in firmness. A few small lots of Western
have come to market, but are held above the views of buyers. The bulk of
Southern common is held by one party here.
Blackberries are again reported
quiet, but still holders are firm and will not accept lower bids. J Pared
Peaches of prime quality still continue scarce ; a few lots occasionally arrive
here from Baltimore, most of which are sold by sample before they are shipped

Unpeeled have met with a fair] demand and remain very firm in price
for both halves and quarters.
Prime Dry Pitted Cherries are meeting with
ready sale at good prices, but wet are 2@3c lower, and dull.
Plums and
Raspberries are in better supply. Peanuts have moved freely since the date
of our last, and any decline that may have been at that time has been fully
recovered, the market at the close being firm. Pecans also show a fair move¬

not seem to buy with any freedom, taking only such lots as they need for present
demands. Canned goods meet with a fair demand, but as stocks are not
unusually large, as was reported at the beginning of the season, prices rule
comparatively steady at an advance from the opening of last fall. We give
quotations for some of the most important articles; a small discount is nsually
