call loans at 4(36 per cent.
In the latter part of February and
early in March there was some stringency in the rates for money
on call, and borrowers on stock collaterals paid as high as 1-32
to 14 per day commission in addition to 6 per cent per annum.
It will be observed that there is often a wide range in the quotations of call loans, and the minimum prices of 3 or 4 per cent
are quoted even during the same weeks when stock brokers
were paying the high rates just mentioned. This is accounted
for by the fact that bond dealers were offered money at low rates
on government bonds eiclusively as collateral, by parties having
trust or other funds in hand, which they would lend on no other
security than government bonds, and with comparatively small
regard to the rate of interest received. These low rates, therefore, famish no criterion of the current prices for loans on

foreign trade movement.
The general prosperity of the three
years ending with 1881 had stimulated the importation of foreign
merchandise, while on the other hand the small crop of 1881
left the United States a small surplus for export.
The natural
result followed, and in March, 1882, prime bankers' sterling
bills were quoted at 4 89>^@4 90/^ (the posted rates), against
4 82J^@4 84 in March, 1881, and in the half-year ending June 30,
1882, about $33,500,000 of gold and silver was exported, while in
the corresponding period of 1881 about $23,000,000 was imported.
In the latter part of the year the aspect materially changed,
more from the very large exports of cotton than from any
other single cause, and during tha last three months of 1882
the United States was a receiver of specie from foreign countries
in moderate amounts.
The movements of stocks and bonds
between the New York market and London and Europe was
sometimes large, but the total balances on one side or the other
were not such as to be perceptible in the exchanges to any
"'
important extent.
HNITBD .STATES BONDS.
The changes in U. S G >vernment bonds were less striking
than in previous years, and aside from t}fp market fluctuations'
the principal matters of interest were the exchange of 3/^ per
cent bonds into 3 per cents under the Act of Congress of July
at the close of the year the 3
12, 18S2, authorizing the same
per cents outstanding were $280,563,950. On Jan. 1, 1883, the
total interest-bearing debt was $1,555,534,600, and on Jan. 1.
1883, $1,392,245,450, a decrease of 1162,289,150; but the total
debt of all sorts, less cash in Tieasury, was $1,765,491,717 on
Jan. 1, 1882, and $',607,543,676 on Jan. 1, 1883, showing $157,948,041 as the actual decrease in the obligations of the Government during the year. Prices of Government securities were
higher than ever before, and in April the fours of 1967 sold
at 121?4 and in December again reached 121, with accrued in;

in the previous year.

In
taking a general view of the course of prices, it is found that
there were three periods of considerable depression, and only in
July and August was there genuine buoyancy in stocks caused
by outside purchases uninfluenced by speculative manipulation
or the manoeuvres of professional operators.
After showing some strength and animation in the early part
of the year, the market collapsed and ran into a condition of
great weakness, which culminated in the lowest prices about the
23d of February. From this there was some recovery as negotiations progressed for the settlement of the trunk-line war,
and
the market went on in a feverish conditioa, with frequent fluctuations, until he early part of Maroh^wheXi weakne-ss again set

t

was an active and buoyant market, and much pressure was
exerted to push up prices by all the customary romors and
other means used on such occasions. But early in April the
whole scene changed there was a pretty strong tone on Saturday. April 1. but on Monday morning some of the stocks that had
been steadily supported before, declined so rapidly an to carry the
whole market with them. For some time the bears had referred
to the fact that certain prominent stocks had been kept up to a
specified price, as if a peg was driven in there, and that the
pegs were moved from one point to another at the will of the
manipulators, and now the pegs were withdrawn, particularly
in Lake Shore, which sold right down about 8 points.

the whole market became decidedly weak. In addition to these
circumstances, the renewed exports of specie were not calculated to help matters, and the result was a tone of depression
at the Stock Exchanges in New York and other cities which

was in strong contrast with the buoyancy of the previous week.
There was loud complaint heard on all sides again.st the promin ent operators, who had virtually declared themselves in favor
of higher prices and then sold freely of their holdings, and
there was no substantial and healthy recovery in tone till after
the 1st of July.
When the result of the harvest was pretty well known
in July, there began a genuine and .ictive purchasing movement, and the interest of the public in the market was
larger than it had been in a long time.
This strength

was a check put oa the advancing
tendency, and it was generally believed that Mr. Gould
was then opposing any further
rise

although his intere.st.s forbade that he should become a decided
bear on prices. The stringency in money afterward assisted
the bear interest, and this was followed by the railroad war

half of 1883 promises to be sucli as to draw gold from foreign
countries in considerable amounts unless, of course, some unforeseen events should occur to drive our securities back from
foreign holders, or otherwise to disturb the natural course of
trade and the foreign exchanges. This does not necessarily
mean that the stock market wUl be unchangeably buoyant,
but it does mean that the trade prospect and all business^^matters dependent thereon have a promising future.
On the other side of the question are the consequences to be

former

yeais,

that

a

clear

—

from the very decided slackening up in railroad building,
and the decrease in certain branches of business which this will
entail.
And not an insignificant fact in the same connection
is the creation of some |550,000,000 of new stocks and bonds
based on the 11,000 miles of road constructed in the year 1882.
The money market worked closely just at the opening of
the year, but as soon as the disbursements began to get in cirfelt

culation, rates quickly relaxed. Early in the week stock,
brokers paid from 7 to 13 per cent for call loans, but latterly 5

to 6 per cent, while government bond dealers have had money
at 3 per cent. Prime commercial paper is quotedat 5J.^(gi6 per
cert.

The Bank of England weekly statement on Thursday slewed
a decrease of £41,500 in specie, and the percentage of reserve
was 29J^, against 36 1-6 the previous week the
discount rate remains at 5 per cent. The Bank of France
gained 9,575,000 franca gold and 8,500,000 francs silver.
The New York City Clearing-House banks in their statement
of Dec. 30 showed a decrease of $1,896,775 in their surplus
reaerve, the total surplus being $3,375,400, against $5,272,175

State and Railroad Bonds.— In State bonds there has beea
some little activity, following upon the decision of tiie United
States Court for the Arkansas District in regard to the liability
of the railroads to the State, after they had been foreclosed
some years ago.
venture to suggest that it is by no means
certain, nor even probable, that this decision will be aflirmed
by the Supreme Court of the United States. The Tennessee
liegislature has confirmed the action of the Comptroller in
refusing to pay interest on the compromise bonds. To-day
Tennessee 6s old sold at 435^ compromise bonds at 46)^/;
Louisiana consol 7s, 73^; Ark. 7s, Ft. Smitli, 38, Miss. Oua.
Red R., 35, L. R. P. B.
N. O., 35^, Central R. issue, 15,
Memphis
L. R., 493^; South Carolina, non-fundable, 6.
Railroad bonds have been active on a good demand, and
prices show the immediate effect in their increased firmness.
In the past few months this report has frequently referred to
the good opportunity wliich then existed for purchasing bonds
for investment account.
The decision of the United States Circuit Court in favor of
dividends on Erie preferred stock, to be paid when earned,
will be an important ruling for the holders of income bonds if
it is aflirmed on appeal to the United States Supreme Court.
Income bond holders will then have a right to their interest
each year when it is fairly earned, and the money can not be
diverted for making betterments.

Railroad and Miscellaneous Stocks.— The week opened
on Tuesday, after the New Year holiday, with a dull and drooping market. Money was rather stringent, and the old year had
left a slight flavor of unpleasantness iu the disappointments
which had frequently been realized where profits were expected. But as the week advanced a better spirit was manifested, which has been fairly maintained up to the close.
The
railroad earnings during the next few months ought to show
handsomely in comparison with last year, and the commercial
prospects (except iu the iron trade, which has been overdone)
should improve with each week. The trunk lines are unquev
tionably doing a large business at profitable rates, and there is
every probability tliat a war in rates will be carefully avoided
by the managers tliis year. The annual statement of Reading's
income for the fiscal year ending Nov. 30, which is given on
another page, makes a very good exhibit. The Denver & Rio
Grande and Louisville & Nash-ville stocks were this week
among the firmest, although the decrease in Denver & Rio
Grande earnings recently reported naturally works against that
stock.

The report aays: "There has been a steady increase in the
business of the road during the year. The train mileaije has
increased .from 2,883,626 in 1881 to 3.697.211 thi^ year. To
meet the wishes of the public we have, during the last year,
more train.s than the increase of traffic called for, and this
has increased the mileage more in proportion than the business
has increased. Besides, the train mileage this year includes
that of the Shore Line division, which has not heretofore been
the case. It will be borne in mind that in this report the
receipts and expenses of the Shore Line (heretofore reported
separately! are also included.
"Several improvements have been made during the past j;ear
Several new engines
in buildings, bridges, rolling stock, &c.
and cars have been added to the equipment, quite sufficient, as
your directors believe, to make the condition of your property
in these respects as good now as it was at the beginning of the
present year. It will be remembered also that from the earnings of last year the sum of $300,000 was set apart to be
applied to permanent improvements thereafter to be made.

for the purchase of lands, bridges and equipment, and has all

the Buffalo and Pitts, division of the road has progressed very
rapidly since the lawsuits with the New York Lake Erie &

"Track-laying will-commence from Johnsonburgh south about
December 1. From the mouth of Little Toby, up that stream
to Beach Tree and thence across to Falls Creek and DuBois,
the grading and bridging is progressing very rapidly, so that
we expect to finish the road to DuBois about February next.
The division from DuBois to Pcnxsutawney, about twenty-five
miles, will be mostly graded this fall, so that the track can be
laid in the spring and the road opened to the Punxsutawney
coal fields early next summer.
" Since the close of the fiscal year i.e., October 5, 1882— the

object of this increase was to purchase and cancel the intended
issue of three millions two hundred thousand dollars of the
income bonds of the Buffalo and Pittsburg division, and for the
purchase of the entire capital stock of the Perry Railroad Co.,

The Board has already taken steps, by way of surveys, etc., towards these improvements. These alterations will necessitate
the expenditure of more money for the next year or two than

months ending Dec,

were $1,291,241, showing a gain this year of $119,538. The
operating expenses for the six months ending Dec. 31, 1881,
were $732,386, showing an increase in expenses this year over
last of $128,325.
The net earnings for the six months ending
Dec. 31, 1881, were $558,855, showing a decrease this year of
$8,787. The above earnings are on the same mileage for both
years, the earnings of the Kankakee & Seneca road being kept
separate. " The large increase in operating.eipenses this year
is due to the extraordinary repairs and improvements made in
the road-bed between Sunman's and Lawrencebnrg Junction."
The average charge to locomotive repairs during the three
previous years (in the corresponding six months) has been
about $30,000; this year it has been $65,000, of which sum
$27,449 was for rebuilding five engines, in addition to the usual
ordinary repairs. The increased operating expenses occasioned
by this extraordinary work on roadbed and bridges, as shown by
the books, amount to over $125,000. Deducting these extraordinary expenses from the operating account, the net earnings would show over five per cent on the capital stock for the
six months, over and above the fixed charges.

A claim made by the State of Pennsylvania for about $95,000
for Statjj tax on loans for year 1882 is now being contested by
the receivers, and is not included above.
A dispatch in the N. Y. Times from Philadelphia, January
3, said: '•Pre.sident Gowen of the Reading Railroad Company,
when asked as to the truth of the rumor noticed in the Times
to-day that he wtis negotiating for the sale of $5,000,000 of
geneial mortgage bDUds, sa d that he would say nothing on the
subject btftre the publication of his plans for the relief of the
company. It was learn-d, however, from a leading financier of
this city, who took a part of the bonds himself, that the sale
had been consummated. The Reading general mortgage provides fiir four classes of bonds, comprising among others
$5,000,000 of 7 per cents which have never been issued. It is
these 7s whose sale has just been tffecttd. They were sold for
cash at par. The gentleman referred to, who has vn-y intimate
relations with Mr. Gowen, when asked how it could benefit the
company to Hoat this amount of bocd-i beaiingsuch a hiph rate
of interest, said that it would enable the citnnany to finish paying off its floating debt, redeem the receivers' certilicates, and
discharge the receivership, and that the 7 Der cent bonds could
be called in and paid off at the pleasure of the company. It is
known to be Mr. Go wen's opinion that any or all of the general
mortgage bonds can be called for the sinkmo- fund of that loan,
but many good lawyers do not agree with him on that point."

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 receiots 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.

India Cotton Movexbnt from all Ports. We have during
the past year been endeavoring to rearrange our India service
so as to make our reports more detailed and at the same time
more accurate. Hitherto we have found it impossible to keep
out of our figures, as cabled to us for the ports other than
Bombay, cargoes which proved only to be shiprnt-nts frum one
India port to another. The plan we have now adopted, as we
have reason to believe, will relieve us from the danger of this
inaccuracy and keep the totals correct.

As a whole the dry goods trade has been quiet the past week,
but there was'a freer movement in certain kinds of spring
goods on account of orders placed some time ago— large deliv-

white goods, spring hosiery, knit underwear, &c.,
having been made in this connection by manufacturers' agents.
There was also a steady reassorting demand for seasonable
goods at first hands, which is likely to continue for some time

Domestic Cotton Goods.— The exports of cotton goods for the
1,074 package?, Including 406 to Great Britain, and
the remainder, in comparatively small lots, to other markets.
Fair quantities of plain and colored cottons were delivered by
agents in execution of back orders, but the current demand
was only moderate, relatively few buyers having yet appeared
in the market. The movement in white goods, such as Victoria
lawns, nainsooks, lace checks and stripes, &c was quite active,
liberal shipments having been made by agents on account of
orders on record. Print cloths were quiet and barely steady at
last quotations, and prints were lightly dealt in, aside from
shirtings, in which fair traasactions were stimulated by the low

in popular makes of all-wool and cotton-warp cassimeres; and
agents continued to make fair deliveries of spring suitings,
