Another remarkable feature is, that while all

been doing what they could to open the door for

honest gold dollar for them, and have been doing it.

There seems to be in active co-operation every natural agency favorable to a return of prosperity to this
country. Legislation is the only prominent adverse influence.
Still, in spite of all the harm unwise Congressmen have made possible, we are progressing very rapidStarting with resumption, that " great failure and

almost every industry feels the impulse, and more than
all we have ever promised as the early results of that
act has been realized.
With regard to the future there is only one cause for
anxiety among commercial classes. What shall be done
with the mass of silver dollars the Treasury is accumulating ? There is some limit to the ability of the Government
to carry a reserve. Mr. Sherman sees this, and has endeav-

The
gross earnings reported for June compare very well with
the same month of 1878. The net increase on all the roads reporting their earnings amounts to $860,298, and only in the

striking points in the present exhibit is
the large increase on the two leading Northwestern roads— the
St. Paul and Chicago & Northwestern.
The Chicago & Alton Railroad shows an increase of $83,337
;
and if 30 per cent of this is supposed to be net earnings, the
amount would be about $25,000. But the company is working
an increased mileage, which has so far cost it, with the equipment, about $4,000,000, at an interest charge of 6 per cent, or

A feature in this week's Bank statement is a reduction of
£551,803 in " other securities," making the total only £18,523,864
against £20,711,781 last year. The accumulation of gold and
the falling off in " securities" are quite sufficient to confirm the
remark that trade and enterprise are reduced to very narrow
New companies are certainly introduced to public
notice; but success is tardy, and very frequently wanting;
and, consequently, the mere fact that fresh schemes are brought
forward is not evidence that business and enterprise have
revived. It is to be doubted if the public are yet disposed to
meddle with joint-stock undertakings, or to invest in foreign
limits.
unquestioned soundness. When milhave been sacrificed, and but few have escaped
loss, a new generation would seem to be necessary to give support to public companies and second-class foreign loans.
Investors still hold all sound securities with much firmness.
Lately, owing to the unsettled weather, stock dealers and speculators, whose business has not been extensive for some time
past, have been "bearing" the market for British railway stocks.
The account just concluded, however, disclosed a great scarcity
of stock, and it was quickly discovered that the necessity

The note circulation, however, is considerably larger than in 1876, the present
amount
being £29,755,997, against £27,913,998. For this, there are two
reasons firstly, the larger amouat of notes in the bands of the
public is due to the crisis which has been more or leas severe
during the last nine months
and, secondly, to the suspension
of note-issuing private banks, which has necessitated a corresponding increase in the quantity of Bank of England notes in

While money is so cheap, and sound investments are so few
and so dear, it can scarcely be expected that a prudent investor
will sell his stock when he is unable to re-invest his money to
better advantage. The finances of the railway companies are
certainly not so satisfactory as they have been during the last
few years; but nearly all interests have suffered, and all have
to await the advent of better times.
Bad trade has lessened
the goods traffic on most of our railways, and unsettled
weather and diminished prosperity have had a similar effect
upon the passenger lines but British railway stocks are a sound
investment, and, rather than sell, the probability is that bona
fide investors will be buyers whenever the " bears" shall think

but the fact is that there are large
supplies of money seeking employment for which it is difficult
to procure a safe and satisfactory outlet. It must be borne in
mind that a few years of strict economy, and the avoidance of
luxuries, lead to large savings not equivalent, indeed, to an
active and remunerative commerce, but compensating to a considerable degree the losses which bad trade entails. Numerous
failures are, indeed, taking place ; but they are not the result

a good share of attenthe intention of the
German Government to alter the standard, but it has been found
necessary to suspend the sales of silver, as the losses incurred
are very In -avy. The following remarks by Herr Von Dechend,
President of the German Imperial Bank, will prove of considerable interest at the present time
Up to the present year 629,000,000 of silver coins have been
melted down, and 539,000,000 sold. The nominal loss on these
sales amounted to 14 1-5 per cent, or 89,484,073 marks, of which
24,572,000 marks were accounted for by wear and tear, and the
coins being stamped above their actual value. The actual loss
was therefore 04,911,980 marks. The price obtained per standaid pan >e was, notwithstanding, 4s. 6^d. Since 1878 the price
ol silver has fallen considerably, and in the seven
months ending on the 19th of May last, the date of suspension of sales the
price did not exceed 4s. 2d., while sometimes it fell as low
as 4s
O^d. per ounce. That would give a loss on sales of 21 percent
Even this price had to be put up with. The silver sold in
this
year, amounting to 28,000,000 marks, resulted, consequently
in
further h ibs of 7,000,000, making the total nominal loss
9(5,500 000
marks, a nd the actual loss 72,000,000. What silver the Government still has to sell, and what will be ldst upon the sale can
not be calculated definitely, as there is no knowing how many
of the thalers coined since 1750 have been lost or melted down
The experiences of the result arrived at when the two-thaler
called in gave, however, a tolerably trustworthy
Indication of what might be expected. Of these
two-thaler
pieces no less than 17 per cent did not put in an
appearance
Applying the same proportions to the thaler pieces, a further

marks.
We have had another week of unsettled weather. Vegetation is certainly luxuriant, and, on bright days, which are
seldom, the country is in its highest beauty. But the complaint
amongst fanners is that dry sunny weather is necessary to
mature the crops, and of this there can be no doubt. We are
now at the end of June, and the crops are a month behind.
Even the hay harvest has only just commenced in the early
districts of England, and, so far, with unsatisfactory results, as
it is utterly impossible to convert the grass into hay.
The
trade for cereal produce is still devoid of any special movement,
the large shipments from America and Russia having the effect
of making buyers cautious. In several localities, the wheat
and barley crops are presenting a yellow and sickly appearance.
During the week ended June 21, the sales of home-grown
wheat in the 150 principal markets of England and Wales
amounted to 49,426 quarters, against 26,546 quarters last year;
and it is estimated that in the whole kingdom they were 197,700
quarters, against 106,200 quarters in 1878. Since harvest the
sales in the 150 principal markets have been 2,279,186 quarters, against 1,73S,76S quarters, while in the whole kingdom
it is computed that they have been 9,076,750 quarters, against,
6,963,100 quarters in the corresponding period of last season.
Without reckoning the supplies furnished ex-granary at the
commencement of the season, it is computed that the following
quantities of wheat and flour have been placed upon the British
markets since harvest:

Railroad Indemnity Lands.— The Supreme Court of Iowa
rendered an opinion on the 27th ult., in the case of the Chicago
Rock Island & Pacific Railroad Company vs. Grinnell, which
seems to cover the question of the title of railroad companies
to land held under the Congressional grants of 1856 and 1864.
The original act granted to the State of Iowa for railroad purposes every alternate section for six miles on each side of four
roads which were named. In cases where any section or part
of section within this six-mile limit had previously been sold or
pre-empted, the companies were given the right to select " indemnity land " within fifteen miles on either side of their roads.
In 1856 the State accepted the grant, and the Mississippi & Missouri Railroad Company was soon after chartered, and in 1858
all the lands were located.
In 1864 the company was authorized
to modify and change the location of parts of its line, and " indemnity lands " on the new part could be selected within twenty
miles from the road. In 1866 the plaintiff purchased the title
and interest of the Mississippi & Missouri road, and located
much of the unbuilt portion considerably to the south of the
old survey. The lands in controversy are within the fifteenmile limit of the old line, the defendant selling them in 1872.
The Court decides that the original grant to the State was
valid; that the survey and location of plaintiff's road gave a
title to the land; that the sale of the road did not effect the
title to the land; that defendant's claim under the homestead
laws of the United States was made after the title to the land
had been passed from the Government, and is, therefore, void.
The claim that " indemnity lands " were prematurely located
was not allowed, as the original parties to the grant have for
more than twenty years acquiesced in the selection. That the
railroad was not completed within the time limited by the Congressional grant did not invalidate the title to the land. A
failure to enforce a forfeiture was a waiver on the part of the
Government. The same decision was made in each of twentythree similar cases, and all were appealed.

the y*? t<irn Union Bailroad held by that institution.
!£ ,~.
The
Chicago Milwaukee & St. Paul agrees to pay the interest
due last February and up to July 1 in cash, at the rate of per
7
cent per annum, and to exchange dollar for dollar its own
6 per
cent mortgage bonds, secured on the Western Union Read
and
St. Paul Roads, for the 7 per cent bonds of the

Company, which owns a majority of the capital stock, is made
a part of the agreement. Before sailing for Europe,
President
Mitchell, of the St. Paul Company, is said to have
executed the

Atchison, Kan. Official notice is given in our advertising
columns that exclusive authority has been given to the New
York New England & Western Investment Company to carry
out the proposed funding scheme of this city. The debt to be
funded amounts to $660,000. The city proposes to pay fifty
cents on the dollar, including accrued interest. For this purpose it has issued 7 per cent bonds, dated July 1, 1878, the bonds
to run twenty years, the right being reserved to redeem them
at any time after July 1, 1888. The interest is payable in January and July. By a provision of the act under which these
funding bonds are issued, the city covenants not to increase its
bonded debt for a period of fifteen years from April, 1878. Provision is also made for the redemption of the bonds by a sinking
fund. The N. Y. N. E. & West. Investment Company reports
.that bondholders are rapidly exchanging bonds in order that
heir holdings
may become

The Pine River
Stevens Point Railroad Company, of the State of Wisconsin, has recently executed a mortgage for $250,000 on its
road, equipment, franchises, &c, to the New York New England & Western Investment Company, New York, as trustee, to
secure a series of 7 per cent 20-year gold bonds to that
amount, issued by the railroad company, to be used in
the completion of 'the road from Richland Centre, its present
northern terminus to Stevens Point. The road is now in successful operation from Lone Rock, on the Chicago Milwaukee &
St. Paul Railway, to Richland Centre, about 16 miles, and its
net earnings are reported to be sufficient to pay the interest on
the bonds issued on the completed division ($18,000) with a
considerable surplus. The entire line when completed will be
about one hundred and four miles in length, which would make
an average of $2,500 of bonds per mile. These will probably
be placed upon the New York market in about 30 days.

Cheney's Grove Township, McLean County, III. In a letter
from the Township Committee, appointed to make provision for
funding the debt, they use the following plain terms in relation
to the liability of the town, which shows the views entertained
of the town's responsibility for its obligations
:
" The unanimity with which our people voted to fund our debt, and the
fact that we have paid the bondholders nine consecutive annual interest
installments of ten per cent each, and are prepared to pay the tenth in
due time, would seem to sufficiently attest the good faith and integrity of
the town in its dealings with its bondholders. The debt Is an honest one,
and we propose to stand by our contract like men, and in this we utter
the unanimous sentiment of our taxpayers."

Situation.
HI.
—The
markets have opened quietly after the Fourth of July
holidays, and the prices of securities are generally firm on a good
demand.
The disbursements on account of interest and dividends are
large, as usual at this period of the year, and added to the ordinary payments the mining companies are disbursing no inconsiderable sums, and still further the immense payments by the
Government on account of called bonds this month will place in
circulation an amount of money seeking employment, which
should cause an active demand for securities, both of the investment and speculative sort. Unles3 the signs of the times are
greatly misleading there is likely to be a considerable employment of money in industrial enterprises. The iron and steel
rolling mills report an active business with engagements ahead
for several months, and prices of rails are steadily advancing.

United States Bond*.— There has been a decidedly active
for government bonds, but some weakness in prices. The
demand for bonds is largely of the investment sort, and a great
number of orders are received by the leading dealers, but there
have been some heavy sales by German bankers in this city who
are supposed to have held the bonds for some time past on speculative account with the purpose of selling them in July. The
Bales, however, must be of temporary duration, and the general I

Railroad and miscellaneous stocks— The stock market
has been quite irregular, and prices have fluctuated considerably from day to day. The main sensation of the week was
produced by the announcement of the new Wabash combination by which the stock of that company, and the St. Louis
Kansas City & Northern, are to be consolidated, and new stock
issued, "half and half," preferred and common. The stocks
became strong, but afterwards declined, and to-day were unsettled in tone. The most information which can be given in regard to the values of stocks, so far as earnings of the roads are
concerned, will be found in our tables of railroad earnings on
another page the statement of net earnings of the different
roads, brought down to the close of May, is worthy of special
attention. So far as the present state of the market goes, and
the great ease in money and prospective abundant yield of the
crops, the situation seems favorable for a continuation of firm
prices. It would appear from this view that any party would
be very bold who should undertake a bear campaign at the
present moment. Possibly at the opening of fall the situation
in monetary and railroad affairs may have changed.

Atchison Topeka & Santa Fc— Denver & Rio Grande.—
despatch from Denver, Col., July 3, said: "In the United
States Circuit Court yesterday Justice Miller decided that the
receiver for the Rio Grande Company had been properly
appointed, in the foreclosure suit begun in the State Court by
L. H. Meyer, and that the State Court had the right to appoint
the receiver.' The right of Meyer to have thereceiver appointed
rests upon the fact that the mortgage was made years before
the Santa Fe Company had anything to do with the road. The
conclusion was that the receivership must stand. In the Grand
Canon case it was decided that the Rio Grande Company must
pay for the ohm ruction of the road in those parts of the canon
which were too narrow for more than one track, to which the
Rig Grande '••mpanv bad prior right under the decision of the
•
Supreme Court, and the mandate for possession could not be
executed until this matter had been settled.
Atlantic & Great Western.— At Akron, Ohio, July 9, in the
Pleas Court for Summit County, Judge Tibbals made
the order asked by the Franco- Egyptian Paris Bank and others in
interest for the sale of the Atlantic & Great Western Railroad
but not before February next. He also overruled the objection
that the consolidated mortgage bonds were issued by the trustees just after reorganization, holding that the presumption is
that no road could have a sufficient accumulation from its earnings to pay cash for the great line purchased, and hence
the
issuing of mortgage bonds would be an inevitable step.
Atlantic k Gait—This road, extending from Savannah, Ga
to Bainbridge, 237 miles, with branches making up a total
mileage of 850 miles, is ordered by the United States Circuit
Court to be sold at Savannah, November, 4. The sale is to
be
subject to mortgages amounting to about $2,713,500.
The
value of the property, by a fair estimate, is said to be
13,900,000.

Grand Trunk of Canada. The Chicago Tribune of July 4
published the following special dispatch from Montreal " The
Grand Trunk Railway is now in a fair way of accomplishing
even more than had been intended at the outset of Mr. Hickson's efforts to outgeneral Mr. Vanderbilt in his endeavors to
monopolize Chicago. The position in which affairs now stand
Port
is, that the Grand Trunk controls a line of railway from
Huron to Flint, some sixty miles long. This was obtained by
purchasing, the other day, the eastern section of the Chicago &
Lake Huron Railway. At Fleet it meets a piece of railway
forty-seven miles long the Chicago & Northeastern controlled
by Mr. Vanderbilt ; and in turn connecting with another bit of
road, 160 miles long, between Lansing and Valparaiso, which
will be sold in a few days, and which the Grand Trunk has made
arrangements to purchase. Then there is a bit of road, some
twenty -six miles long, from Thornton to Chicago ; but between
Valparaiso "and Thornton is a gap of thirty miles. This will
require a new road to be built. The Grand Trunk will build it
and then there will be in existence a complete line of communication between Port Huron and Chicago. Mr. Vanderbilt holds
that part of the line between Elint and Lansing, and the question comes up, will he sell at the Grand Trunk's price, or will he
keep his line and compel the Grand Trunk to build around it ?
In the latter event, the Grand Trunk people believe that it will
be to their advantage to make a line to Owosso, forty-seven
miles long, and there tap the Grand Haven Railway, which riiLS
in a straight line to Milwaukee."

Hoosac Tunnel Erie New York Central.— The Hoosac
Tunnel route has come into prominence just now from a rivalry
which has sprung up in regard to its control. It is reported that
Messrs. William H. Vanderbilt. H.J. Jewett of the Erie, Thomas
Dickson, and a party of Boston capitalists headed by Gen.
William L. Burt, have all been interested in the matter. The
Times of July 8 says that "The Burt faction consulted with
the Erie and the Delaware & Hudson Canal Company's officers, and it was proposed to use the Albany & Susquehanna
branch from Binghamton to Schenectady, and then build a
route from there to the Massachusetts and Vermont State lines.
This work was proceeded with, and the new corporation appeared under the name of the Boston Hoosac Tunnel &
Western Railway. This company have constructed upwards of
forty miles of road, including eight bridges, reaching from the
Delaware & Hudson connection direct to the Hoosac Tunnel.
But these people are deterred from pushing their enterprise to
completion by a serious hindrance being a lack of the right of
way to cross the Troy & Boston track, which is now controlled
bv Mr. Vanderbilt. These details comprise the interest of the

Brie in this matter.

" Mr. Vanderbilt's presence in this controversy has been
caused by this project of the Brie. To permit the latter to
reach the tunnel would be to take from the New York Central
a portion of the traffic which now aggregates 500 car-loads a
day, besides giving an opposition passenger route to Boston.
Hence, it could scarcely be expected that the New York Cent ral
king would slumber while this plan was matured. At present,
all this business comes from the lakes and Buffalo over the only
four-track route it goes further east via the Boston & Albany
or Troy & Boston road. There is plenty of traffic to keep both
routes busy at a profitable rate. Four' months ago the Troy &
Greenfield Kailroad Company applied to the courts for permission to redeem the Hoosac Tunnel from the State. This corporation first started the tunnel, but abandoned it after spending
!?2,0l)0,000, making the stockholders bankrupt, and getting only
one-quarter of the work done. The State's money finished the
job, and then the Troy & Greenfield road sought to have the
unuel turned over to them. Those who could see through the
mill-stone perceived at. once that Mr. Vanderbilt had thus at
one stroke attempted to gobble up the tunnel. The Burt and
Anns party defeated his plan in the courts, and enlisted also
the sympathies and co-operation of the Boston Board of Trade.
The last move made by Mr. Vanderbilt has been to buy np the
Troy & Boston
ailroad, which was an unprofitable concern
until the tunnel gave it importance.
Last Thursday Mr: Vanderbilt paid cash for 2,530 shares at half of the par value.
His sister, Mrs. Clark, had previously obtained 1,000 of these
shares. This was done so that no notice would be taken of Mr.
Vanderbilt's action. On the same plan, Augustus Schell procured 1,000 shares, while Mr. Vanderbilt personally held a
similar number, making 5,500 shares under his control. Daniel
Etebinsori has been heretofore the manager of this road, and
holds about 2,000 shares. It was agreed that, if Mr. Vanderbilt
would buy 2,500 shares at 50 cents on the dollar, instead of 25,
the previously-quoted rate, three-fourths of the other stock
would be pledged to his support, a paper having been circulated to that effect and signed by enough shareholders to ajlow
Mr. Vanderbilt to control three-quarters of the votes. His name

—A Boston pi ess despatch
of July 8 says that an agreement
the Fitchburg Hailroad Company and the State authorities for the operation of the Hoosac Tunnel and State Road
has been arrived at and will be submitted for ratification at a
meeting on Monday. It is agreed that three arbitrators shall
be chosen. The present tolls for carriage of freightand passengers by the Fitchburg Kailroad over the thirty-seven miles
of the State Road now operated by said company' shall remain
in force, except that the arbitrators shall determine what rebate,
if any, will enable the said company to operate the thirty-seven
miles without loss. The time covered by the arbitration shall
'
be from April
1, 1870, to January 1, 18S0.

No rebate or allowance shall be so great as to bring f h't
amount of tolls paid to the Commonwealth^ during the present
calendar /ear less than the expenses incurred by it daring that

miles, except such expenses as it may incur over ancl above
37-44 of the ¥80,428 30 expended by the Commonwealth in
operating its own road for the year ending September 30, 1878.
It is also agreed that, in case any other

The road is being built by the Chicago

eighteen miles from Chicago, to some point to connect with the

Grand Trunk and Atlantic & Great Western roads have held
frequent conferences with Mr. Vanderbilt.
It is said that
recently he has consented to the joint use of one of the roads by
these companies, the Wabash and his own road. Cyrus W.
Feld, president of the Wabash Company, accompanied by
Solon Humphreys, a member of the executive committee, will
go to Saratoga to hold a final conference with Mr. Vanderbilt in regard to the lease. The organization of the Wabash

past week.
The improvement in prices extended to all grades,

These are fully 25c. higher, and some of them are held for an
advance of 50 cents. The extremes of grades, low to choice, are

There were very large sales on Wednesday at $4 30@4 50 for common shipping extras and $5 25@
but yesterday the whole
$5 50 for choice shipping extras

The dry goods trade has not yet recovered from the
effect
of

city; business has therefore remained quiet during the past

tinued to make large deliveries on account of former orders,
and many makes of both plain and colored cottons are still sold
ahead for many weeks, " at value." Grain bags were in noticeably good demand by the Western trade, and there was a wellsustained movement in cotton warps and cop yarns. Print
cloths remained dull and a fraction lower sales of 64x64s having been made at 4%@4 5-16c. cash, and 56x60s at 3%c. cash.
For dark prints there was more demand by buyers for remote
sections of the country, and robes continued in fair request.
Domestic Woolen Goods.— There was a fair movement in
men's-wear woolens on account of former orders, but new dealings were few and comparatively unimportant. Stocks of fancy
cassimeres, cheviots and worsted coatings are generally in good
shape, and as no surplusage of desirable styles exists, prices are
maintained with unusual firmness. Overcoatings were only in
limited request, but values are unchanged. Cloakings, beavers
and repellents were sought for in fair quantities by cloak manufacturers and jobbers, and there was a tendency toward higher
prices on some makes of the latter. Kentucky jeans were in.
fair request, and such leading makes of doeskins as " Humboldt," "Chelton," "Deer Island," &c, were advanced by
agents. For flannels and blankets the current demand was
strictly moderate, but fair deliveries were made in execution of
—
back orders.
Foreign Dry Goods. No features of interest were developed
in the market for imported dry goods, and business continued
qniet, as is always the case " between seasons." Prices are well
sustained on the most staple fabrics, and silks and linen goods
are notably firm.
