Louis,— At Nashville, Jan. 6, the ease of the minority of the
stockholders of the Nashville Chattanooga & St. Louis Eailway

The EUzabethtown Lexington & Big'Sandy Railroad is the conneolios
between the Chesapeake & Ohio Railway and the West ivnd South-
link

Occupying
this
commanding
i)46ition, it ia
assured of a largo
and
from the date of its completion. The great busiDesa
centering at LouIkvUIo will embrace this short outlet to the sea; wliito
the cotton of the Southwest, the tobacuo, hemp and live stock product*
of the rich blue gra^s regions of Kentucky, will flud by this route their
natural outlet to the markets of tho.Eaat.
At Lexington, Ky.. the E. L. & B. S. R. R. will connect with the Clacinnati Southern and Kentucky Central, north to Cincinnati and south to
the cotton fields of Tennessee and Mississippi while the far West and
Southwest to the Pacific coast will, in time, contribute to the trafiUi oC
the CUtsapeako & Ohio roule to the sea, in which this is an important
lucrative business
;
link.
This road will be completed by June next, the necessary means for Ita
compietion being already provided.
The bonds ard of the denomination of $1,000 each, secured by n
strictly first mortgage on the entire property of the company principal
and interest payable in this city iu gold coin interest at the rate at aic
per cent per annum, payable March and September ; principal due
March 1, 1902.
Wo now have in our hands a limited amount of the bonds for sale at
97 'a and accrued interest.
The totiil amount of bonds authorized is $3,500,000, only $2,500,000
of which arc appropriated for construction and first oipiipment.
Tl>e Chesapeake & Ohio Railway route is rapidly growing iu power
and importance, and within a few months will take its place as one of
the great l^ast and West trunk lines.
First mortgage bonds of tha old roads are almost out of the market, er
are selling at so high prices that investors are looking te the best ot (ho
now issues to supply their wants. Within six months the United State*
Fives and Sixes will be called iu by the Government, thus adding to tlie
inquiry for good railroad securities. The new Gevcmment loan will not
pay more than 3 per cent; and we on>ect to see it eagerly taken up at
that; while a constantly-increasing acoumulation of capital will fee
seeking the better clivsses of Investments, from which a larger ioooma
can be derived than the Government need pay.
Maps showing the Chesapeake & Ohio and Big Sandy route, and any
further information desired, will ba furnished on application.

price on the basis of 4-8665 to the £, and then to deduct 1 % per
cent to get at the real amount he will receive. This they claim

u few weeks we shall probably have reached Florida Pass and
made a connection with the Southern Pacific. This will IncrcHsa our
business by giving us part of the tlirough travel and freiglit to and from
California, and we antlci)>,ito a demand from the mining region of
Arizona for coal and coke, for mining materials, food and torage. Wo
think, therefore, that that portion of our road extending from Albuquerque down to the southern part of New Mexico, which lias not been
able to earn anything hocauso not completed, will furnish its share of roccipt.s.
The crops of Kansms are looking better than they have done for
two years, and we hope to see our transportation increased in this State.
But the road is not in a suitable condition to do the largo business which
has already come upon it. Our earnings for the past year, ainouutiDc to
about $8,500,000, have been seriously interfered with by the condition
of our track and tlie want of suitable rolling stock. And ourbe»tcu»tomers and friends on th» line in Kaus.as and New Mexico, have not received the accommodation which we would have gladly given thomlf
we had. been able to do so. The road has not been sudiciently ballasted,
and a largo part of it was laid with light iron, which in giving way rapidly botli in Kansas and Colorado.
In the laUer
State wo are , in perpetual danger from cattle straying on our
track, and a great deal of expensivo fencing will have to bo
(lone
before we can run at full speed. Wo require at tho
presant time 25,000 tons of steel and 500,000 cross tics to lay down
rapidly as po8sil)le. The machine shops at Topeka are altogether Insofflclont In size, and we are without the necessary shops to repc.ir i oiling
stock both in Colorado and New Mexico. In or near Kansas City wo
sliall require at least 100 acres of land to mak« exchanges of cars, wltli
the necessary round houses, coal chutes, &c. The renewal of bridgeg,
wlilch should be done at once, will require some $80,000, and the water
service not less that $110,000. At Topeka wc ought to erect the necessary buildings for the business of the company.
Passenger depots
should be put up at Lawrence and Kmporla, and round houses should bo
either enlarged or built at Atchison, Kmporia, Florence, Newton, Nickerson, Dod.goCity, .Sargent and several places in t;i)lorado and Now Mexico,
lo the matter of ro'.llng stock .ilono, we require engines and cars which
will cost in the neighborhood of .$2,500,000. IJesides all this, some forty
miles of side tracks should be laid at once. In short, although the ro»d
has been a successful one and tho business has iucre.Tsed as much
a
The annual report of the business of the company for the
year endini? September 30. 1880, is just printed. It states that
the condition of the road-bed and track has been greatly improved since the last report, and will require large additions in
the ooming year to meet ths demands of the increasing traffic.
The report says of the Hoosac Tunnel road that the policy of
the State has been settled " and, since the execution of a
seven-years' contract with the Commonwealth, we can more
securely make outlays for improvements of an extensive and permanent character. The traffic has so increased as to test the
capacity of the road to its utmost and the assurance that we
have of its permanency and additional increase demands the
greatest haste practicable in developing our terminal facilities
for both local and export business, in completing the double
track to Grreenfleld, our western terminus, in increasing our
motive and carrying capacity, and in improving and enlarging
every facility necessary to do the business with dispatch ana
economy."
In accordance with the authority panted, the directors have
taken $192,000 of the stock of the Hoosac Tunnel Dock &
Elevator Company in Boston, and in November, 1879. they purchased Hittenger's Wharf, the first wharf east of Tudor's, for
;
;
1113,701.
The directors say of the recent purchase
:
"The Vermont & Massachusetts
Railroad Company, in its
lease to us, and upon the written request of this company,
covenanted and agreed to sell and convey to whomsoever may
be designated in said request, provided such sale can lawfully
be made, that portion of its railroad which lies between Grout's
Oomer, now Miller's Falls, and Brattleborough, Vt., and known
as the Brattleborough Branch, which branch has never been
operated by the Fitchburg Railroad Company. It was under
lease to the Rutland Railroad Company, and formed a part of
the New York line of the Central Vermont Railroad. In the
struggle of the various roads competing for this business, there
was a constant liability that the value of the most profitable
portion of the same would be seriously impaired by the construction of a parallel road. Under these circumstances your
Directors, after obtaining the requisite legal authority, and in
conformity with the vote passed at the last annual meeting,
sold on May 1, 1880, said branch, with the real estate appertaining thereto, to the New London Northern RR. Co. for
$630,500, which sum— by. the terms of the lease of the Vermont
& Massachusetts Railroad— has been applied to the payment
for additions and improveraets made by this company on that
road."

past two years

tho stockholders could hope, vast sums of money willha%'e to bo spont
before we can work economically and profitably. The directors, after
giving tho whole matter a careful consideration, have decided that
$6,000,000 should be spent on tho road. And they consider it muoh.
more conservative to issue stock and sell it at jiar to the stockholders
than to load down the road with a heavy debt in the shape of bonds.
They therefore have decided to issue one share in four of new stogkwliich will ba used as explained above, tor construction and rolling

"We learn by letters from Mr. Gowen, President of the Philadelphia & Ke.ading Railway Company, that he intends to offer for
subscription his scheme of deferred bonds without olitHiulMg any previous guarantee and deposit to secure its success. We are the largest

be given by an association or syndicate, and secured by a deposit of
$2,000,000, and it was only with this condition that the Court ai:prove(l

Great Britain exports iucludc to the Uhauuel.
The market for futures, though not active, shovfed an upward
tendency from the opening on Monday to about noon on Wednesday, ana, though fluctuations were frequent, the aggregate adTance from the close on the previous Friday amounted to 18
points for January and 10@14 points for the later months. This
advance was caused by the very bad weather at the South and
the decidedly smaller receipts, not only at the jxirts, but at the
interior towns. The .speculation, however, was slow and fitful.
ITio slight sympathy which it exerted upon foreign markets was
soon lost, and yesterday, under a declining market at Liverpool,
the movement seemed to have wholly subsided, and very moderate offerings were sufficient to carry prices back to a few points
onder the closing figures of Friday. The smaller receipts were
attributed to the bad roads, and it was asserted that what does
not come forward now will swell the receipts hereafter. To-day
there was a steadier but duU market. Cotton on the spot, (hough
quiet, has ruled firmer, quotations being advanced l-16c. on
Tuesday. There were very large deliveries on .lannary contracts during the early part of the week. To-day the market
was quiet at 12c. for middling uplands.
The total sales for forward delivery for the Tveek are 442,300
bales, includinof
free on board. For immediate delivery
the total sales foot up this week 3,527 bales, insluding 972 for
exx>ort, 2,373 for consumption, 182 for speculation and
in
transit.
Of the above,
bales were to arrive.
The followng are the official quotations and sales for each day of the
past week:

In the preceding vLsible 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
four years, we could not make a comparison in any other way.
That diificulty no longer exists, and we therefore make the following comparison, which includes the stocks at the nineteen
towns given weekly in our table of interior stocks instead of only
the old seven towns. We shall continue this double statement for
a time, but finality sliall simply substitute the nineteen towns for
the preceding table.

Receipts from thb PL.^HTX'noxs.—The following table i»
prepared for the purpose of indicating the actual movement each
week from the plantations. Receipts at the outports are sometimes misleading, as the/ are made np more brgely one year
than another, at the expense of the interior stocks. We reach,
tht^refore, 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.
