It opens
enough yet to
with a decid¬
edly lower range of Wail Street values than prevailed a
year ago, especially for non-dividend paying stocks.
To
that extent at least the condition is more hopeful, and to it
is probably due, in a great degree, the less despondent
and more buoyant feeling which has prevailed during the
past week.
Still, many argue that a lower deep is yet in reserve.
And there are not 'wanting plausible reasons to support
such a view.
For instance, commercial affairs are less
active, in many departments the production of goods is
being restricted, consequently the distribution is likely to
show some failing off.
For this reason, and because the
proportion of the crops left to be moved from first hands
is, in some instances, smaller now than it was last January,
there seems to be a reasonable prospect that railroad
earnings in certain sections will not prove as satisfactory
as
during the first six months of 1882. On the other
hand, however, it should be remembered, as in part a
compensation for this, that stocks of produce are unusually
large at interior towns, all of which must sooner or later
find a market; and, furthermore, if we include every
new
influences
the
success
which has attended the downward movement
in
prices has in great part been due to the weakness dis¬
in these special properties ; and the hope widely
entertained that such plague spots have ,at length been
mostly revealed, is perhaps the basis for the greater confi.
deuce at the moment fe It. Still, the public is in a waiting
mood.
Some railroad problems yet remain to be worked
out, and it is by no means clear that the slight revival
observable in the iron trade betokens a gradual recovery in
commercial affairs.
Until greater certainty exists on
these points, any great improvement in Wall Street cannot
be anticipated.
The first surprise of the year was an event not a little
startling, and which for the moment was quite disap’
pointing and elicited considerable adverse comment.
We refer to the midnight appointment of a receiver
of the New York & New England Railroad.
It was
supposed that the advent of a new board of directors
had obviated, the necessity for any such action, and
besides that, the haste shown excited suspicion and
no
little distrust, for the public is wonderfully sensi¬
tive
just now about railroad management.
But
reflection has at least led to a suspension of judgment.
Of course the granting of the order by the court under
such unusual circumstances is presumptive evidence that
the occasion was urgent and that the course pursued by
the directory was justified.
At all events it is reported
that there is to be a meeting of the full board of direc¬
tors on Monday, that Mr. Clark will at that time explain
the reason for his haste, and that all interests will be pro¬

It is this Boston & Albany route that the

Taking the information given, however, we find that
the
million of Northern Pacific scrip which the com¬
pany held June 30 has disappeared ; that the holdings of
Northern Pacific stock have changed but little ; that the
company has augmented its holdings of Cregon Railway
Navigation stock from 128,535 shares June 30 (or 8,535
more than a majority of
the entire stock outstanding) to
152,027 shares, an increase of 23,492 shares during the
last six months.
This latter increase must have involved
expenditure of about 21 million dollars, and as the
company has been in financial straits during the whole of
that period it seems a little curious that so much money
should have been spent for such a purpose.

The financial statements issued
from the Treasury with
January bring up prominently again the
importance of the position- the question of taxation must
hold in the coming deliberations of Congress.
A further
reduction of nearly 12 millions in the public debt during
December, making 109 millions in the calendar year, tells
its own story of the amount that is thus unnecessarily being
drawn from the people in these dull times for the purpose
of paying bonds no one wants paid. Tarough the kindness

Certainly Congress cannot too
speedily enter upon its work of tax reduction.
Foreign exchange has been firm and higher this week,
in consequence of a demand, mainly to remit in settlement
of accounts and for coupons and interest payments, and the
supply of bills coming on the market from cotton shipments
has been quickly absorbed. This re action from the rather
heavy tone in the early part of last week is not unnatural,
especially as there has been some return of securities, pos¬
sibly caused by the unsettled state of our stock market
toward the close of the year. The following shows relative

interpretation of the situation is that the
main losses of the last year, have fallen upon our manufac¬
turers.
They have been compelled to carry the stocks
which during better times are in second hands, distributers
only purchasing to supply immediate wants. Hence it is
that such large offerings have been made through the auction
rooms, although prices realized were below current rates.
And this feature in the situation is working the. needed,

The iron industry under such a pressure reduced
production until, as already said, consumption is more than
taking the new supply; as a result, prices in that department
have a rising tendency.
The woolen and cotton trades
(but especially the latter) were later in disclosing an
overproduction and have been slower in curtailing it.
But now that process is generally under way, and as lower
wages and lower cost of production permit enlarged ship¬
ments, it would not be surprising to see an addition during
the next six months to our foreign exports of cotton goods
and other manufactures which are in oversupply. Further¬

A point of some importance connected with these
returns of mercantile disasters, is tns relative proportion

this particular we have prepared the following exhibit,

they record a substantial improvement on a year ago,

The gain in quantity is
more marked than in values, since prices

ports have fallen off during the month, as fully shown by
weekly statements. New Orleans continues to record
a marked increase over
1882, and the receipts at the Vir¬
ginia ports, other than Norfolk, are also ahead of last
year ; this latter is owing in great part to the increased
facilities for handling cotton at West Point and Newport
News.
The total net port receipts to January 1 are
34,536 bales behind 1882, but show a gain over 1881 of
226,115 bales. The exports to foreign ports in December
were only 630,353 bales, against 749,852 bales the same

anything approaching
activity in the more important markets during the month.
As usual at the close of the year jobbers bought sparingly,
and operations on the part of exporters and tlie manufac¬
turing trade were strictly moderate. The price reduction
made in some of the most popular bleached shirtings did
not stimulate business to any great extent.
In the main
values have not undergone material change during the
month, but there was at the close a firmer feeling on fine
bleached goods, accompanied by an advance of
per
cent on some makes.
Print cloths have been in only
moderate demand, and close at 3 7-16 cents.
Larger
stocks than a year ago are now held by manufacturers
and their agents, but there is every reason to believe that
supplies with jobbers and retailers are exceptionally small
as a result of the cautious hand-to-mouth
policy pursued
for
some
an

speculative operations—whether in stocks, grain,
provisions. The failures of McGreoch in Chicago
and Ranger in Liverpool were instances in which the
transactions came to the surface and became notorious;
but the losses made by thousands of private individuals
and firms who had been carrying stocks or produce on
margins, and were squeezed out by the pressure of 1883,
could not be even approximately guessed at.
As the
number of parties engaged in speculation had been large,
so the
losses were widely distributed among a host of
brokers’ customers.
Many of the failures of mercantile
firms, and not a few defalcations, were traceable to the
results of speculative operations in stocks or merchandise.

machinery worked well, and there was in
alarm or give shock to the already
business community. The money
market was abundantly supplied with funds ; no bank
failures of first class importance took place ; and in the
leading financial centres, where Stock Exchange business
constitutes a large proportion of the entire volume of finan¬
cial transactions, there was not a single failure of wide¬
spread influence among bankers or brokers. And this
strength was exhibited in the face of a decline in stocks
and bonds which far exceeded in thet-total shrinkage of
values anything known since the crisis of 1873. The
continued coinage of silver by the G-overnment was a
cloud upon the horizon ; but this had its principal effect
in projecting an uncertainty into the future rather than in
present injury.
It necessarily destroys confidence in
the intelligence or good faith of those legislators in Con¬

dealings in government bonds were mainly influenced by
varying prospects as to the rapidity with which bonds
would be retired by the Government through the application of
its surplus revenue. There is always a demand for Government
bmds for banking purposes, and the use of trust funds, which
supports the prices at figures much above the prices of other
first-class bonds bearing the same rates of interest.. On Jan. 1
1883, the total interest-bearing debt was $1,392,245,450, and on
Jan. 1, ISS1, fl,276,S85,150, a decrease of $115,300,300; but the
total debt of all sorts, less'eash in Treasury, was $1,007,543,076 on
Jan. 1, 1SS3, and $1,498,041,723 cn Jan. 1, 1834, showing

The Money Market and Financial Situation.—A fea¬
ture of some interest in financial affairs is the favorable report
of the Superintendent of the Banking Department of the
State of New York for the year to September 30, 1883, which
shows that the aggregate of deposits in the eighty-four banks
operating under charters from the State have increased over
38 per cent in the year by the sum of $31,863,983, and are now
more than double what they were in 1879.
The condensed
statement of the progress of the various leading items of the
report for the last five years indicates that the business
and profits of these banks organized under State laws have in¬
creased to an extent which makes a favorable comparison
with the same items in the business of the national banks.
It should be said, however, that in part the recent increase is
due to the conversion of some of the national banks to the
State system.

State and Railroad Bonds,—The market for
railroad bonds
generally lower during the first three days of the past
week, but in the last three days has shown a general tendency
toward higher prices. The recovery about offsets the previous
decline, though the figures of prices do not show this in many
cases, from the fact that a majority of the bonds are now
quoted ex-interest. The greatest activity and the greatest
fluctuation have been in the New York West Shore & Buffalo
5s, which twice during the week have made dips to 64. The
first time this decline included the 2% per cent semi-annual
interest, and the second decline to 64 was ex-interest. The
range lias been 69f^, 64, 66f<, including interest, and 64, 67^,
65]4 ex-interest. The business in these bonds has averaged
nearly $1,000,000 for each of the business days. The range
of prices for other bonds during the week has been as follows,

There have been no special developments in

the way of what
week.
The
res¬
ignation of Mr. Villard from the presidency of the Northern
Pacific and the incidental development that his private for¬
tune has been lost cannot be called a failure in the mercantile
sense of the word.
So, also, the fact that the resources of the
North River Construction Company are apparently proving
insufficient to build and fully equip the New York West Shore
& Buffalo Railroad, the actual cost of which has been from
$5,000,000 to $7,000,000 over the original estimates, is impor¬
tant only as showing that the West Shore Company may be
obliged to raise something like that sum either by a second
mortgage or by some other method.

Railroad and Miscellaneous
Stocks.—The stock market

in connection with the examination and report on the finan¬

the doubt about the settlement of the troubles among the Iowa
and Nebraska pools, the complications of tne Delaware Lacka¬
wanna & Western with the Trunk Line Pool, etc., etc.
During
the first two of the last seven days the majority of speculators
were disposed to take bearish views, and there were free pre¬

Money Market and Financial Situation.—A fea¬
of some interest in financial affairs is the favorable report
Department of the
30, 1883, which
eighty-four banks
operating under charters from the State have increased over
38 per cent in the year by the sum of $31,863,983, and are now
more than doable what they were in 1879.
The condensed
statement of the progress of the various leading items of the
report for the last five years indicates that the business
and profits of these banks organized under State laws have in¬
creased to an extent which makes a favorable comparison
with the same items in the business of the national banks.
It should be said, however, that in part the recent increase is
due to the conversion of some of the national banks to the
of the Superintendent of the Banking

State and Railroad Bonds,—The market for
railroad bonds
generally lower Muring the first three days of the past
week, but in the last three days has shown a general tendency
toward higher prices. The recovery about olfsets the previous
decline, though the figures of prices do not show this in many
cases, from the fact that a majority of the bonds are now
quoted ex-interest. The greatest activity and the greatest
fluctuation have been in the New York West Shore & Buffalo
5s, which twice during the week have made dips to 64. The
first time this decline included the 234 Per cent semi-annual
interest, and the second decline to 64 was ex-interest. The
range has been 693^, 64, 66t£, including interest, and 64, 6734,
6534 ex-interest. The business in these bonds has averaged
nearly $1,000,000 for each of the business days. The range
of prices for other bonds during the week lias been as follows,
viz: Burlington & Quincy debenture 5s at 91*4@933<; Central
Pacific gold bonds at 115@116@ ex interest

There have been no special developments in
could be strictly called “failures” in the last
the way of what
week. The res¬
ignation of Mr. Villard from the presidency of the Northern
Pacific and the incidental development that his private for¬
tune has been lost cannot be called a failure in the mercantile
sense of the word.
So, also, the fact that the resources of the
North River Construction Company are apparently proving
insufficient to build and fully equip the New York West Shore
& Buffalo Railroad, the actual cost of which has been from
$5,000,000 to $7,000,000 over the original estimates, is impor¬
tant only as showing that the West Shore Company may be
obliged to raise something like that sum either by a second
mortgage or bv some other method.
In the New York money market there is still as much of a
lethora of unemployed funds as ever, and the amount is daily
eing increased by the annual interest and dividend disburse¬
ments.
The distrustful feeling, which lias been largely due
to the expectation of just such developments as those above
referred to in connection with the Northern Pacific and the
New York West Shore & Buffalo railroads, still prevails to a
large extent,, though the better understanding of the real facts
in each case has done something to help restore confidence, and
in the last day or two there have been more indications of a
disposition to invest in railway stocks and bonds than for sev¬
eral weeks before.
The rates for money, however, Continue
extremely low. For call loans on stock collaterals they have
ranged from 2 to 3}.< per cent during the week. The rates for
and 5 on similar collaterals
time loans have continued at
for six months.
Rates for mercantile discounts remain at 5
and 5h> for first class double-name paper for GO days and
four months, and 6 and 6}^ for single names.
The great foreign banks all show considerable losses of
specie during the week. The Bank of England lost £129,000.
The Bank of France lost 10,262,000 francs in gold and 6,313,000
The Bank of Germany lost 17,766,000 marks.
francs in silver.
The Bank of England reserve was decreased from 39 13-16 per
cent last week to 34ig per cent this week.
The Bank rate of
discount, however, remained unchanged at 3 per cent.
The following table shows the changes from the previous
week and a comparison with the two preceding years :

the new, and
Stocks.—The stock market
much unsettled during the week, owing to con¬
flicting views taken by the public of the developments expected
in connection with the examination and report on the finan¬
cial condition of the Oregon & Jrans-Continental Company,
the doubt about the settlement of the troubles among the Iowa
and Nebraska pools, the complications of tne Delaware Lacka¬
During
wanna & Western with the Trunk Line Pool, etc., etc.
the first two of the last seven days the majority of speculators
were disposed to take bearish views, and there were free pre¬
dictions of unfavorable developments on each of the above
features.
The last three days, however, have shown a consid¬
erable recovery of confidence, and the result is that the declines
of
the first few days have in most cases been more
than recovered, some of the advances being important,
while only a few of the active stocks show declines for the

week. The
fluctuations, however,
have been wider than usual,

having touched lower prices in the last week than ever before.

Mr. R. G. Rolstou was by them requestel to.joiu the committee and take
part in the investigation. The committee was organized by the appoint¬
ment If Mr. E. P. Fabbri as Chairman and Secretary, and at the earliest
moment proceeded to an investigation of the compan3r’s affairs. The mat¬
ter of the investigation being of an intricate character and requiring
many
meetings, much time has necessarily been taken by the committee in
arriving at the substance of their report. Inasmuch as the business and
affairs of the company had been largely under the control and manage¬
ment of President Villard, his absence, in consequence of severe
illness,
during the examination, has greatly interfered with the committee’s
labors and has prevented their makiug a report as satisfactory iu detail
as they would have desired. The committee would report that the assets
of the company, as shown by the banks and from the certificates of the
parties holding securities or collaterals on loans, as well as the actual
count of such securities as are in the possession of the
company, are as

Pennsylvania Railroad, have male considerable progress
toward a settlement. It has been an open secret, for some weeks
that additional stock would be issued therefor iu some shape,
but the Pennsylvania was not expected to take newr stock at par
for the whole $1,831,564 (tlie amount at the date of the last
annual report), while the market price was only about 17.
A
compromise has been agreed upon by which the Pennsylvania
agrees to take $700,000 of the amount in Philadelphia & Erie
stock at par, or 14,000 shares.
It is regarded as probable that
the remaining $1,131,564 will be paid by the issue of addi¬

gage, which is for $20,000,000, and under which $8,680,000 sixes
and $5,263,000 fives have already been issued, leaving $6,067,000
still available.
If $1,900,000 additional bonds be issued to the
Pennsylvania at 5 per cent under this mortgage, the Philadel¬

No settlement of past balances, however, has yet been

The dissatisfaction of the trunk lines with the

The speculation in cotton for future delivery at
has been somewhat les3 active for the week under
a further and important advance, in which
Liverpool and the Southern markets have shared. The im¬
provement is due to the demand to cover contracts, and some
buying for the advance,.caused by the reduced movement of
the crop.
The receipts at the ports, as well as at the principal
interior towns of the South, have been very small.
There
was an advance la3t Saturday, but the clo-e was barely steady
at about the lowest figures of the day, under sales to realize
in view of tlie closing of tiie Cotton Exchange till the follow¬
ing Wednesday. The re-opening of the market, after the
New Years holidays, was with a very buoyant tone, and
prices advanced 12(dl4 points, but there was some weakness
at the close, and the opening of Thursday was somewhat
uncertain in tone. A movement in January contracts, by
which the wide difference between them and the later deliv¬
eries was reduced a fewr points, caused a re-action toward
better prices, and a final closing at an irregular advance.
To-day the opening was at a further improvement of 3@4
points, but there was less activity, the buying for a rise
having evidently received a check, and the strength of values
was due mainly to die absence of sellers.
The close, however,
was at a further advance, and, as compared with last Friday,
prices were 20 @2 5 points dearer for this crop and 13 for the
next.
Cotton on the spot has had but a limited sale, and the
small dealings have been mainly with home spinners. Kecent
failures have impaired the credits of many small buyers, and
this has had some effect in keeping transactions within narrow
limits. But in sympathy with the speculation in futures
quotations were advanced JyC. on Wednesday. To-day there
was a further advance of 1-lGc., middling uplands closing
at lOfgC.
The total sales for forward delivery for the week are 425,100
bales. For immediate delivery the total sales toot up this week
1,181 bales, including — for export, 681 for consumption,
500 for speculation and
in transit. Of the above,

Receipts from the Plantations.—The following table is
prepared for the purpose of indicating the actual movement each
week from the plantations. Receipts at the outports are some¬
times misleading, as they are made up more largely one year
than another at the expense of the interior stocks.
We reach
therefore, a safer conclusion through a comparative statement
like the following. In reply to frequent inquiries we will add
that these figures, of course, do not include overland receipts or
Southern consumption; they are simply a statement of • the
weekly movement from the plantations of that part of the crop
which finally reaches the market through the out-ports.

for until buyers have made their purchases of domestic goods.
