by the decline
and not by any check
in ordi-
nary business transactions.
Thus, for instance, sales of .stocks
fell off 36'4 per cent, sales of cotton 12'1 per cent, sales cf grain
26-4 per cent and sales of petroleum 10'3 per cent. Taking Stock Exchange transactions alone, they represent a
market value of only 162,273,000, against $109,006,000 for the
corresponding days of 1883, and if we made the usual dedtiction of double these amounts from the total clearings, the
exchanges otherwise arising are seen to be $383,815,823 and
Now if from
$406,781,739 for the two years respectively.
these totals we were also to deduct the values of the sales of
produce, &c., given above, we should, as stated, probably find
little difference for the two years in the ordinary business
transactions of the city.

THE MONEY MARKET,
The money market was in such a condition of ease throughout most of the year as to give evidence of the unhealthy
stagnation which prevailed. It should be remembsred as an
important fact for the advocates of a forced silver coinage that
the panic of 1884 came upon the coui.try when it was glutted
with a superabundance of coin and currency for circulation,
and the continued coinage of depreciated silver, instead of
helping the country with easy money, did much to bring on
the bad condition of business, by shaliing confidence in the
stability of our circulating medium.
In the May panic rates
advanced to abnormal prices, aid at one time mon y could
hardly he obtained at any figure, and in some cases stockbrokers paid 5 per cent per annum plus 3 per cent a day for
loans. Rates soon relaxed when the timidity following the
panic had passed away, and in the last half of the j ear rales
were excessively low, seldom ruling above 3 per cent as the
maximum rate on st^ck collaterals. Mercantile paper was
naturally higher, owing to the great uncertainty as to the
standing of business houses, and the best double-name paper
went at 4}^ca0 per cent. I^te in the year the leading New York
Clearing House banks agreed to pay only 2 per cent interest
chandise began to decline and there was a better feeling in
American securities; also in the autumn months a large
export movement of cotton.
Rates of exchange fell oflF
July, and there was a moderate
Rates in August and September were
firmer, and when they declined again and gold imports were
beginning, the advance in the Bank of England rate to 5 iier
cent in October checked the movement.
During the balance of the year the rates fluctuated, but kept slightly above
tlie specie importing point.

RAILROAD AND MISCELLAN"EOUS
STOCK.S.
The stock market opened in January with depression which
was brought over from December. On the first of the year a
receiver was appointeJ for the New York & New England
Railroad, and a break in West Shore bonds and appointment
of a receiver for the North River Construction Company, together with a new break in Oregon & Trans-Continental und the
Northern Pacifies, caused a gloomy feeling in the market. On
the 38th of the month a turn was given by the formation of a
syndicate which made a loan to the Oregon & Ti'ans-Continental
on the pledge of its stocks, and thereafter a quick move against
the shorts was made which caused a sharp advance in prices
and a firm tone during the balance of the month and tliroughout most of February, when the speculative support kept up
prices till near the end of that month.
On tlie first of March
the corner in Delaware Lakawanna & Western took place,

which carried the price up to 133'^ regular and 139i^ for cash.
The following table shows the rates for call loans secured This was demoralizing to the bears, and about tlie middle

the feeling. Under the influence of these corners there was

UNITED STATES BONDS.
There were no special feature? in government bonds
during
the year, except the precipitate decline of 5
|)er cent in the
May panic, which w«b ocuasioaed partly by the suspension
of
a prominent firm of government bond dealers
and partly by
the general pre-ssuro to realize. The calls for
3 per cent bonds
by theTre:isuryam)unte<i to $70,000,000 in caUs
at different
dates up to St-pt. 20, after which the decreasing
revenues and
large demand for pensions and decrease of
gold in the Treasury, prevented furtlier calls
The following shows the dates apd amounts of the
calls
er cent bonds made during the year:
'•This was the culminating point in a period of eleven years,
during which time had occurred the slow recoverv from the
crash of 1873, the rise and development of the most gigantic
speculation in railroads that any country had ever seen, and
finally th^ inevitable downward movement continued during
neariy three years from July, 1881, and ending in May, 1884,
with what came near to being a serious fin incial crisis. At
the end of throe years of unpiralleled shrinUa.ge in Stock
Exchange values, the crash was at last precipitated by the
turning up of a line of frauds in financial operations which
had hardly been matchi'd before— and the woi-st and heaviest
of thesu frauds was perpetrated under ih-' influence of the
name (though not with the pe sonal connivance) of that distiuguished soldier and Presiden% G iieral U, S. Grant. The
names of Fish of the Mirine Bank, Grant & Ward, John C.
Erio, and a few others, must be woven into the
history
' of
May, 1884.
"Theidetailsof the month's operations have been uiven from
week to week in the Chronicle, and need not be repeated
The Mirme Bank and Grant
& Ward
suspended on
luesday, May 5, and the following week the Motroiwlitan
Bank suspended, followed by a number of banker and broker
firms, and ihe height of tiie excitement was
reached. The
Ue^irmg House banks joined together 1 support each other
by issuing "Clearing House certifictttes," by which means the
1
.Metropolitan Bank was enal)led to resume on Thursday May
15, the day after its suspension.
The Second National Bank
was robbed of about $3,000,000 by th.^ stock speculations of its
1 resident, John C. Eno, but this deficiency
wa.s immediately
made good by the father of the defaulter and other directors.'^'
1 he greatest depression in i one and in the prices of many stocks
was reached about Friday, June 27, when the unmitigated bear
market led to hucli an overselling that there
was a very quick rally the next day and a semi-panic among
for 3 the

no penalties for its enforcement. The arrangement is a simWhile each company

In making up the percentages of the companie?, neither

"There will be a large saving in expenses from the operation
of both roads by one management. This will arise from the
absence of competition for freight and passengers, which has,
in spite of agreements for pooling, &c., cost both roads large
sums; also from discontinuance of trains not needed for the
bueiness, and from a reduction of a number of salaried officers
and agents. It is estimated that this item will amount to
fSOO.OOO a year. Then there will be permanent improvements,
to b© paid for with the proceeds of improvement bonds. Based
upon the cost of such work last year, this item will add to the
value of the property not less than |200,000 a year. Adding
to these items the interest accruing to the Eastprn under the
lease, |855,C54 91, the payment to the sinking fund of |100,000, and the balance of rental stipulated, $336,000, there is an
aggregate of $1,291,554 91, which is more than the total of interest on the Eastern's debt and 6 per cent on its preferred and

proposed to offer to the car trust bondholders 6 per cent second mortgage bonds, which are claimed to be better security
than their present bonds, provided they will waive one-half
the interest for ten years; that is, surrender their bonds and the
&
equipment and take second mortgage bonds
at par, stamped
to 3 per cent for ten years. Mr. CI rk eslimated the net
earnings for the last three months of 1884 at $159,000. The
road earned $104,000 net in October, and it is understood that
the net earnings for November are over $80,000.

"But under the terms
of the lease no dividends will be paid
until the certificates of indebtednes.s are reduced to $10,000,000. Tlien after paying $100,000 annually to the sinking fund,
the profits will be divided among the stockholders. Practically their dividends begin now, because they are paying the
debt. There is no denying that this is better fortune than
most of them expected, but the figures are from trustworthy
sources, and the officers of the consolidated roads think that
even better results than the foregoing estimates will be realized."

no

sources but the net earnings of its property. These amounted,
during ihe fiscal year ending June 30th, 1884, to about $1,700,000 00 but the Committee preferred to bafse the plan which it
presented upon the gross earnings as ascertained up to this
date, and as estimated for the future. The gross earnings for
the fiscal year ending June 30th, 1884. were $4,173,263 30 but
as it is reasonable to suppose that this property will share in
the decline in tonnage and rates now affecting all other railroad properties, the Committee thought it prudent to deduct
ten per cent from tlie gross earnings for the last fiscal year,
and estimate the gross earnings for each of the calendar years
of ISai and 1886 at $3,750,000. This rate of decrease is somewhat greater than the falling oiT in the last half of 1884 as
compared with the last half of 1883. and while the Committee
felt sanguine that this rate of decrease will not continue,
r-btit that, on tlie other hand, the earnings will show a
mate,-rial increase in the last half of 1885 and 1886, they did
not
feel it safe to lui.se their calculations upon any such
in) -crease,
nor upon any less rate of decline. The road can be
operated and maintained in good condition for less than 60
per
cent of this gross revenue, which would leave, at 40
per
«ent, net earnings for each of the calendar years of 1885 and
1886 of $1,400,000, As tlie total payments duiing said years

desired.
believed it to be for the best interests of all
the parties concerned to adopt this proposed plan, thus relieving the Company permanently of its financial embarrassments, and enabling it in the future to meet all of its obligations.
The money which it is proposed to borrow frem the
bondliolders will be exp-jnded in improving and in making
additions to thfir property, thus enhancing the value of their
security.
The contemplated improvement of tlie condition of
the Company's road will enable it to make large reductions in
the operating expenses, and additional facilities for conducting
its business will result in an increase nt the gross revenues.
It is proper to call attention to the fact, that, owing to delay
in completing important connecting roads, and the inability
on the part of this Company from want of sufficient means to
put its road in proper condition, it has so far failed to derive
full benefit from the construction of its new lines and the extension of its old ones.- These connections have now been perfected, proper traffic arrangements have been made, and it is
reasonable to expect that with the renewal of the industries
of the country the Company's system of roads will enjoy that
measure of prosperity to which it is entitled by reason of its
favorable geographical location and inherent strength.
The report of the Committee has been approved by the
Board and the Executive Oflicers of the Company, and a
Funding Committee of the Board instructed to take the necessary steps to carry the proposed plan into execution.
As it is desired to conclude the 'funding by February 10th,

to sign the enclosed form of assent, and mail it to the East

Agricultural Department Report. The Agricultural

yield of cotton as follows

1881.
The returns of condition in October and of product in
December have been unusually divergent this year. The first
indicated a larger crop than last year; the latter a product

ccntinued in pretty good demand by the manufacturing trade
but there was a comparatively small business in cloakings
tricots and sackings, while other woolens adapted to the
wants of dry goods jobbers, as flannels, blankets, worsted
dress goods, shawls, skirlx, etc., continued in very light demand at first hands, but fairly steady in pri('«.
Foreign Dry GIoods ruled very quiet in the hands of importers as regards personal selections, and the order demand
was almost wholly restricted to small lots of specialties
