It will be noticed that in the above we have continued
the English total deliveries as in the previous statement,

figures for mileage published in some of the
newspapers are grossly incorrect. The following roads
are well known as working a mileage considerably
increased, viz.: Atchison Topeka & Santa Fe, Central
Pacific, Chicago <fc Alton, Chicago <fc Eastern Illinois,
Chicago Milwaukee <fe St. Paul, Chicago & Northwestern, Denver & Rio Grande, Louisville & Nashville,
Northern Pacific, St. Louis & San Francisco, Union
Pacific, and Wabash St. Louis <fc Pacific. The pertinent
question in regard to all these roadH is rather as to the
increase in bonded debt or annual obligations, than as to
the mere increase in mileage, and any precise information
on those points will not be obtained by outsiders till the
next annual reports are issued. In the mean time the
directors have access to the books and can form a much

Since last harvest they have been only about 5,000,000 quarters, against 9,000,000 quarters, or a falling off of
4,000,000 quarters. Oar imports are larger, but, according to

flour have been marketed since harvest, against 84,207,000 cwt.
last year.
It is, however, well known that millers have been
buying from hand to mouth for a long time, and that their stocks
were never so low as they are now. Stocks in granary are also
small, and it. is these two facts that tend chiefly to check any
important downward movement in prices.
Prance, if the
account respecting the crops in that country is correct, will
again be a considerable importer of wheat, besides which Westem Europe is bare of reserve stocks. Wheat will undoubtedly
be cheaper, if the weather continues flne but England at all
events will again require a large supply, as the area of land

under wheat is small.

west the crops are in general thin. In the North, with the
exception of the department of the Nord, where a good crop is
expected, either from having been injured by the rigors of
the winter or by the insects, the wheat leaves much to be
desired, and is overrun by weeds. Thus, though on the whole
the prospect is better than last year, an excellent harvest
is not to be expected.

Impoets asd Exports for thb Wbbk. The imports of last
week, compared with those of the preceding week, show
a decrease in dry goods and an increase in general merchandise.
The total imports were $9,188,199, against $9,218,231 the pr»eeding week and $7,805,490 two weete previous. The exports
for the week ended July 5 amounted to $9,447,24^, against

is not much confidence, however, in the reports of damage to
the grain crops about this time of year. The great pressure of
grain coming forward from the West, even at the much lower
range of prices lately ruling, has been accepted as good evidence that holders there thought it best to sell; and their judgment as to what tjie present crop is likely to turn out is supposed to be better than that of parties in New York or London.

Railroad and Miscellaneous Stocks. The week has been
broken up to some extent by the national holiday, and business
has been reduced in consequence. The stock market has shown
rather a weak tone the past few days, which may be attributed
It is
in part to the absence of many operators from the city.
probable, too, that this half -holiday week has been taken as a
good time to attack the granger stocks on the strength of bad
crop reports telegraphed from the West. Certainly, the general
situation appears rather strong, and the reports of railroad
earnings for June, and for the first half of this year, reported
at length on another page, make an exhibit of increase
over tie preceding year which has not heretofore been
matched. The report "of Reading affairs received from London

These figures have an indirect, but a decidedly important,
bearing on the meeting of the Eastern trunk line managers,
which is to be held at Saratoga July 20. It is reported that
the trunk line arbitiators will offer to allow the following
apportionment of East-bound busine.ss: Mienigan Central, 26
per cent; Lake Shore, 25; Fort Wayne, 24; Pittsburg Cincinnati & St. Louis, 10; Baltimore & Ohio, 8; and Chicago &
Graiid Trunk, 7. The Grand TVunk refused 7 per cent before,
and it is more than likely that a compromise may be made by
allowing that road 10 to 15 per cent.
The money market has been extremely easy, and the current (and it seems absurd that Philadelphia should wait to getquotations for call loans is 2@3 per cent, according to the Reading report from London) is quite unsatisfactory in otte

Expenditures for extraordinary renewals and new construction
have been $752,841 from July 1, 1876, to June 30, 1879, and
$140,378 for the current year (June estimated), a total since
July 1, 1876, of $893,220. The annual interest on the divisional,
or prior, securities, as recognized by the decree, is $375,498; but
these securities could probably be funded, after the pureha.se of
the property, at 6 per cent interest, and the annual interest
charge would be, in that case, $314,140. Deducting this latter
charge from the average annual net revenue for the four completed years of the receivership, there would remain a balance of
$494,970. Deducting the same from the present year's net revenue, there would remain $727,075. For the purpose, however,
of accurately estimating the net amount which may be distributed among the consolidated bondholders, deductions should
be madel for necessary improvements until the property is
placed in first-class condition. Deducting for such improvements the annual sum of $230,000 up to April 1, 1884, there
would remain on the basis of the average of the four receivers
years a net amount for distribution per annum of $264,970

of the present year, there would remain $497,075 about 9 per

" 3. A grant to the East Tennessee Virginia & Georgia Railroad Company, by way of an equivalent for their guarantee, of

Brooklyn Elevated Railroad.— Meyer Feuchtwanger has

Court, an injunction order restraining the company from
issuing, procuring to be certified, or delivering any bond or
bonds for money procured or contracts made for the sale of
bonds since the making of a contract with plaintiff on January
1880. In his complaint he alleges that he was induced to purchase ten ?1,000 bonds of the railway company for $-^,000, for
which he received a certificate for the bonds which were to be

class $1,043,900, being more than one-third. The entire debt to
be funded amounted to $14,10.6,045, and of this Dr. Worth has
been able to retire $6,461,445, issuing in substitution thereof 4
p«r cent bonds to the amount of $1,901,495. Thus far. therefore, we have gained by the funding operation $4,559,949.
Were all the bonds issued still in existence and capable of
being presented, there would yet remain $7,704,600 to be
fnnckd ; but it is probable that a considerable number of the.se
bftnds will not come to light and will never be presented at the
Treasurer's office. We may safely estimate, therefore, that
one-half of the actual debt intended to be funded has been presented and has been retired, and that, when the funding operations are practically ended, the new 4 per cent debt will amount
to more than $4,000,000, bearing an annual interest of $160,000.
This showing, we say, is highly satisfactory, and Dr. Worth
deserves, and will receive, the thanks of the State for the skill
and acumen with which he has conducted this great and important service. By the way, the bill under which the Treasury
Department is now operating is not materially different from
the bill which we matured when in the Legislature in 1871-72,
and which passed the House of Representatives at that time.

From London we have the first report of the English bond^
holders' committee, dated June 18. This committee is in the
interest of the Messrs. McCalmont, the English bankers, who
have managed the Reading Company in London. The committee is composed as follows: 'The Right Hon. Earl Cairns,
chairman; W. J. Cookson, W. Fowler, M.3P., Coleridge J. Kennard, Hugh McCalmont, Henry H. McNeile, R. C. Naylor^
Richard Potter, T. W. Powell.
The following are extracts from the report and appendix;
which contains statistics additional to what has been published
in this country:
" A comparison of the net earnings of the companies during
the five months ending 30th April in 1879 and 1880, and alsoduring the months of April in 1879 and 1880. The committeehave further ascertained, in answer to inquiries sent by them,
by telegraph to the receivers, that the general or floating debt
of the company had been increased between the 1st of December, 1879, and the 30th of April, 1880 (the latest date supplied
to themj, by about $3,604,000, a considerable portion of which^
however, is stated to be represented by the items of vainer

Pacific Bailroads.—-The Attorney-General of the United
States has tendered an opinion in regard to withholding payments from Pacific Railroad companies for transportation'services performed for the Government, in which he claims that
the whole of the earnings for such services should be withheld, and not the one-half thereof. He holds that the act of
Mav 7. 1878, applies not only to tie roads of the Union Pacific
and of the Kansas Pacific Railroad companies, but to all lines
leased or operated by those companies or consolidated with
them ; consequently he directs that payment be withheld for
Government transportation over the Denver Pacific, the Sioux
City & Pacific, and the Central Branch Union Pacific, as well as
over the Union Pacific & Kansas Pacific railroads.

Pliiladelphia & Reading.— George M. Dallas and Joseph A.
Clay, masters under the receivership of the Reading Railroad
and the Reading Coal & Iron Company, have filed a report in
the United States Circuit Court favoring the proposed extension of a loan of $70,000 made to the Reading by the Massachusetts Loan & Trust Company of Boston, to secure which
a large quantity of coal was pledged. The masters state that
the receivers are unable to take up the loan and that the Trust
Company is willing to extend it. .Judge McKennan has affirmed
the report authorizing the extension of the Lan.
In the suit of foreclosure the receivers already appointed
liave been made receivers.
The "masters appointed bv the
Umted States Circuit Court in the ease of the Philadelphia &
Beading Railroad and Coal & Iron Companies filed their first
report July 2. They say that the receiver's accounts as to the
railroad company from May 25 to Jane 12, inclusive, have been
examined and found to be nearly correct. The account as to
the Coal & Iron Company from May 25 to June 23 was examined
a*d found correct. The account of the railroad company shows
that the receipts were $2,719,014 and the balances on hand
f 151,803. The payments for wages, salaries and contingent
expenses were $862,602, and for interests, &c., $1,856,412. The

The above

figures indicate an inoreate in the cotton in sight tonight ot 332,824 bales as compared with the same date of 1879,
an inerease of 135,544 bales as compared with the corresponding
date of 1878. and a decrease of 449,894 bales as compared with 1877.
In the preceding visible supply table we have heretofore only
included the interior stocks at the 7 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 difficulty no longer exists, and we therefore make the following comparison, which Includes the stocks at the 19 towns
given weekly in our table of interior stocks instead of only the
old 7 towns.
We shall continue this double statement for a
time but finally shall simply substitute the 19 towns for the 7
towns in the preceding table.

Bbckipts ynoM thb PiiANTATiONS.— The following table is
prepared for the purpose of Indicating the actual movement each
week from tlie plantations. Uecoipts at the outports are sometimes misleading, as they are made up more largely one year
than another, at the expense of the interior stocks.
W^e 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.

(;HB,0N1(.^LE.

The wheat market has shown nnasaal activity and buoyancy.
Reports of injury to the growing crop in the West and Northwest have been current, and there is no doubt that some damage has been done by recent storms and flood.*). At the same time
the export demand has been urgent for immediate shipment.
Beoeipts at the West were comparatively small, and the visible
snpply rapidly diminished. There was, consequently, a revival
of speculative confidence. The advance has been most decided
for spring wheat, which sold yesterday at |1 11@|1 12 for No.
The business in No. 2 red winter yesterday was at $1 21®
2.
Jl 22 on the spot, fl 16@|1 16% for July, |1 10@|1 11 for
August and fl 09@$1 0954 for September; and No. 1 white
sold at $1 16^@fl 17 on the spot, fl 14?6 for July and $1 08>^
for August. To-day the market was excited. No. 2 Western
•winter selling at f 1 29 on the spot, $1 19 for July and |1 12®
91 14 fot August.
Indian com has been active, but at barely steady prices for
parcels afloat. For future delivery, however, there was some
improvement. No. 2 mixed closing last evening at 49'%@i9%e.
for July and 49^c. for August; No. 2 white sold yesterday at
63j^c.

To-day there was a decline of ^@}ie. from yesterday's

figures.
