In some of the leading producing States the contrast
with last year in the case of the condition of corn is
very striking indeed. Thus for Illinois the average
now is 92 against only 70 in July 1892, in Iowa 98
against 75, in Missouri 92 against 75, in Indiana 96
against
in Ohio 93 against 80, in Kansas 93 against
81, i&c., &c. Here are the details.

We have written with reference to these figures, or
at least those relating to the breadstuffa exports, in a
subsequent column.
The July report of the National Agricultural Bureau
on the cereal crops has been adversely construed, and
this unfavorable interpretation used as ono of the
agencies for hammering down prices on
the
Stock E xchange; but all things considered, we do not see
how the agricultural situation could be more nearly in ac­
cord with the country’s requirements— in other words,
the crop prospects are just about as would naturally be
desired. To be sure, the Bareau reports the condition
o f both winter and spring wheat low— the one 77'7
and the other only 74-1— and as these figures agree in
the main with private and unofficial advices, there can
be no doubt that the yield of wheat the present year
will be small. But a short wheat crop at this juncture,
with prices so extraordinarily low, is by no means a
national calamity. Large supplies of wheat are held in
reserve from previous crops, and, besides, a reduced yield
now should have the effect of ensuring better prices for
these supplies. In any event there is no likelihood of
a dearth of wheat for export, and as much of the old
supplies has not yet Deen marketed, the railroads are
certain also to have a large traffic in wheat, though of
course in special instances where the crop shortage is
most pronounced (as for instance in Kansas) the traffic
may not be as large as in 1892-93.
N o one therefore need give himself much uneasiness
regarding the poor prospects for wheat. On the other
hand, a good corn cr >p is of very great importance, both
to the railroads and to the agricultural and industrial
community as a whole. C msequently it is very encourag­
ing to know that the outlook for that crop isatthis time
in every way satisfactory, and that unless this prospect

It will be seen from the foregoing that besides the
improvement in condition the Bureau also reports an
increase in the acreage in corn— 3 3 per cent for the
country as a whole.
The Louisville & Nashville directors have this week
declared the usual semi-annual dividend of two per
cent, and submitted a preliminary statement of the
operating results for the fiscal year euding June 30,
1893, which must be very gratifying to the security­
holders o f the company. The last cotton crop, as is
known, was a short one, and the general industrial situ­
ation in the South has been by no means satisfactory, but
notwithstanding these adverse influences the company
is able to report an increase in gross earnings for the
twelve months of $1,104,074 and an increase in net
earnings of $587,493. During the same twelve months
the gros3 earnings of the East Tennessee fell off about
$525,000. Doubtless when the vast combination of roads
embraced in the Richmond Terminal system has been
reorganized and placed in sound physical aDd financial
condition, increased competition from that source must
be expected, and possibly the Nashville may lose some
traffic on that account. The position of the company,
however, as regards its income is very strong. The
statement before ns shows that for the twelve months
there is a surplus above charges and the 4 per cent
dividends of $400,776. Moreover, that is the surplus

an obvious mistake in the matter of supporting the
bullion market as well as in every other particular, and
hence in stop ping purchases there is no need to antici­
pate more than a temporary unfavorable result, with a
subsequent recovery as soon as affairs get adjusted to
the new conditions.
One other phase in the silver situation is used for
the purpose of puzzling the public, and that is the new
relation India has assumed to the metal. It is argued
that as au early consequence, Europe’ s gold supply will
be heavily drawn upon; that the affairs o f every
financial centre in the old world will be thrown into
confusion; that there will be many and important
failures in London; and finally that ludia’a effort to
establish gold payments will also fail. This is a long
series of mishaps, hung upon the single peg that India
will at once give up its love and demand for silver and
transfer them to gold, and consequently will require
a large gold balance to support gold payments. We
have referred to this point recently, but the past
week we have received and read over the full
report of the committee of which Lord Hersenell
was chairman. A fter reading the report we are only
confirmed in our views expressed last fall* as to the
ease with which the change can be made and the little
friction to be produced in making it.
The great
calamities which are suggested like those relating to
the loss the country will suffer by reason of the
lower price of silver bullion are all pictures of the im­
agination, the most o f them conceived and shaped by
those who are interested in disturbing or preventing
the restoration of a healthy condition o f affairs. It is
not at all unlikely among the results which a repeal of
the Silver Purchase Law of 1890 will produce that we
may be able to number a willingness on the part of
Europe to unite upon some method for a larger use of
silver in the currencies o f the world.
But, as we have already said, aside from these influ­
ences, the events of the week have as a rule been
favorable. They need not be enlarged upon here, for
they have been already referred to in a previous article.
It is, however, well enough to add that signs are accu­
mulating of an increasing interest of the public in the
question of the day, and that the repeal of the ob ­
jectionable law is becoming more and more assured.
Now that the movement for repeal has gained in force
it should not be allowed to lag. As we stated last
week, let the communities everywhere be organized, and
let them keep their representatives in both houses of
Congress constantly informed of the distress their constitnencies are suffering and of the need there is for
haste.
Already there are undoubted signs of the com ing
great change in our commercial affairs which we are to
enjoy in the full when this repeal has been effected.
Instead of sending our best currency out of the country
faster than we were able to manufacture the worst, as we
have been doing for two years now, gold is beginning
to come back from many points. This movement to
be sore is small, bat it is a first evidence of returning
confidence in the reviving sanity of the people o f the
United States. It is a mere forerunner, a tell-tale, of
that flood of new capital which is sure to flow into this
new country when the hope which has begun to be en­
tertained in our determination to have a sound cur­
rency. a sure measure of values, shall have become by
our action an accomplished fact.

BREAD 8TU FFS EXPORTS.

The Bureau of Statistics at Washington has issued
very promptly the preliminary statement of the breadstuffs exports from the U nited States for the month of
June. We need hardly say that the. figures possess
very decided interest. Jane closes the Government
fiscal year, and in the foreign commerce of the lata
year, as well as in the change from the preceding year
which has been so marked, the breadstuffs exports have
played a very prominent part. The June figures being
only preliminary, we cannot give as yet the exact
results for the year, but the totals are certain to prove
a very close approximation to the actual results, and such
changes as may be found necessary by the later and
final re tarns must be slight and cannot in any event
have any appreciable effect on the general aggregates,
especially as we are dealing with totals of very large
magnitude.
The first point to attract attention is the great de­
crease in the value of the shipments for the twelve
months as compared with those of the twelve months
preceding. Our readers are aware that our aggregate
merchandise exports have fallen much behind those of
the previous fiscal year. The tables we have now com­
piled show that a great part of the whole loss occurred
in breadstuffs. In 1891-92 the aggregate value of the
breadstuff* exports was 299 J million dollars, for 1892-93
the total is about 199J million dollars, so that the de­
crease is just about one hundred million dollars, which
certainly is a striking and an important difference.
Of course sight should not be lost
of the
fact that in comparing with 1891-92 we are com ­
paring with a year of extraordinary and phe­
nomena! totals.
When the returns for June from
a few minor customs districts which are not
embrac'd in the oarlv preliminary statement are re­
ceive'!, doubtless the value of the breadstuffs shipments
for 1*92-93 will aggregate close to 200 million dollars,
and that is a total of no ordinary magnitude. In 1891
(1890-91) the value of the breadstuffs exports was only
128 million dollars, in 1890 not quite 155 millions, in.
1889 1231 millions, in 1888 127 millions, in 1887 165£
millions, in 1880 1253 millions, &c. These compari­
sons with other years are useful iu making more ap­
parent the true dimensions of the late year’s export
totals. As a matter of fact, excepting 1892 we would
have to go back a whole decade, to 1883, to get a larger
total than that for the late year. It has happened,
indeed, only five times that the value of the breadstuffs exports has exceeded the two hundred million
mark ; the favored and exceptional years were 1891-92
already mentioned, with exports of 299 millions, 1883
with exports of 208 millions, 1881 with exports of 270
millions, 1880 with exports of 288 millions and 1879
with exports of 210 millions.
What is true of the breadstuffs export values as a
whole i3 true also of the wheat aud flour exports,
which indeed form the largest item in the same. For
1892-93 the value of the wheat and flour exports is
8108,533,217. This compares with 8236,761,415 for
the year preceding, but with only $106,125,888 for
1891, $10.2 312,074 for 1890, $86,949,186 for 1889,

of the statistics during the progress of the year. Of
course the shipments for the late year have not
equaled those of 1891-92, which, as already stated,
•were phenomenal and extraordinary; hut so much
has been made of the falling off from these
exceptional totals, and references to Europe’ s dimin­
ished requirements by reason of the better crops
raised in 1892 have been so frequent, that many per­
sons no doubt have received the impression that the
outward movement of wheat has been on a small rather
than on a large scale. This erroneous impression would
also he encouraged by the fact that because of the low
prices received the loss in values as compared with 1892
has been much larger relatively than the loss in the quan­
tity shipped. We find that of wheat 115,935,239 bushels
were shipped for the twelve months, and of flour
16,704,213 bbls, the latter being equivalent to 75,168,958 bushels of wheat, making the grand aggregate of
the wheat and flour exports 191,104,197 bushels. This
is only 34 million bushels less than the amount for
1892, and with that exception is the heaviest
on record— heavier even than the shipments for
1880 or 1881, years which up to 1892
stood
unexcelled for their large exports.
As against
the 191 million bushels exports for 1892-93, the
exports of flour and wheat in 1891 were only 106
million bushels, in 1890 109J million bushels and in
1889 8 8 f million bushels. It is worth noting that a
steadily increased proportion of the exports is going
out in the manufactured form — that is, in the shape of
flour. The flour exports for 1893 were actually larger
than for 1892, and in fact were decidedly the largest in
the country’s history.

[V ol. LVK.

Notwithstanding these very large shipments, we are
holding now in this country, as is known, very heavy
available supplies of wheat. Obviously, however, it
cannot he claimed that these supplies have accurnu*
lated because Europe has not bought very freely of
our wheat, for she has— haying taken less only than
the extraordinary quantity taken in the year preceding.
The explanation, then, of the heavy accumulations
must be sought in our enormous crops of 1891 and
1892, which it now seems to be generally admitted
were underestimated by the Government authorities.
A very unfavorable feature in the year's results has
been the low prices realized for the exports— a fact o f
course for which the large supplies, including a heavy
visible stock in elevators and at storage points, are
chiefly responsible. The average price of the wheat
exports for the late year is less than 80 cents a bushel
(79-9 cents), or lower than for any preceding year in
the above table— this comparing with an average o f
I I ’026 per bushel for 1891-92, thus showing a decrease
of over 22 cents per bushel on the whole outward
movement of the year. The average per barrel of flour
for the late year is |4-o46, which compares with $4‘ 959
for 1891-92. Unfortunately the averages for the clos­
ing month (June) are still lower, being for wheat less
than 76 cents (75-9 cents), against 91*6 cents in the
corresponding m onth of 1892.
The low prices now prevailing ought certainly to keep
the export movement free, and thus draw down sup­
plies, especially as it is evident that the present year’ s
crop in this country will he a small one. E n ­
couragement for the future is also to be derived from an
examination of the records showing the destination o f
the late year’ s heavy shipments. T i e statistics on this
point, relate as yet only to the eleven months ending
May 31. It appears that the United K ingdom took
more wheat even than in the year preceding, and also
more flour— the shipments of wheat for the eleven
months being 67,153,909 bushels against 62,237,996
bushels, and o f flour 9,722,571 barrels against
8,838,008 barrels. Reducing
flour to wheat and
allowing for the exports in June,
the U nited
Kingdom must have taken from ns daring the.
twelve months in the neighborhood of 120 million
bushels. W ithout undertaking.to estimate what Great
Britain’ s requirements the current year will he, or her
ability to procure large supplies from other sources
than the United States, it is sufficient to say that crop
accounts from that country are very unfavorable at
present. In the rest of Europe, also, the advices speak
of much poorer crops than last year, though at the
moment no such shortage is look ed .for as occurred in
1891. France, in the last-mentioned year, sustained a
decided crop failure, and hence in the fiscal year
1892 (or rather in the first eleven months of the same)
took from us 42,038,954 bushels of wheat ; in the cor­
responding eleven months of the late year she
took only 6,752,423 bushels of our wheat. The wheat
crop in that country, therefore, the present year, and
France’s probable requirements to make up any defi­
ciency at home, will be watched with considerable in ­
terest. Should our corn crop prove good, as expected,
our exports of that cereal would also increase; in
1892-93 our corn exports were only 45,697,271 bushels,
against 75,451,849 bushels in the twelve months o f
1891-92. In one recent year (namely, 1889-90) our
corn exports fell hut little short of 102 million
bushels,
the
exact
total
being
101,973,717
bushels.

The trunk line properties also present a quite favor­
able exhibit. We have already alluded to the extra
dividend on the Pennsylvania and to the passing of the
dividend on Erie preferred. New Y ork Central is pay­
ing o per cent per year and so is the Baltimore &
Ohio; the Lake Shore pays 6 per cent and the Michi­
gan Central 5% per cent, the total in the latter case
being reached by an extra dividend, the regular rate
being 2 per cent semi-annually. Our dividend aggre­
gates are in all cases made up on the basis of the divi­
dends actually paid within the period taken, and
therefore for the six months of 1893 include for the
Vanderbilt Western lines the dividend of last Febru­
ary; the August dividends of these roads have just
been announced, and are at the same rate as for the
corresponding date of 1892, namely 3 per cent on the
Lake Shore, 2 per cent on the Michigan Central and
1+ per cent on the Canada Southern.

It is almost needless to say that the best and highest
dividends are found in the New England section; a
great change lias been going on there in the relations
of the different roads to one another, and some of the
roads are not paying as good dividends as in earlier
periods, but on the whole dividends have been well
maintained and remain high. In the annexed table,
the Old Colony dividend of 4 1-12 per cent for the six
months of 1893 is made up of the regular quarterly
dividend of I f per cent paid in March and the
per
cent paid June 30, after the lease to the New Haven.
Under that lease dividends will be 7 per cent, as be­
fore, though the lease provides for an exchange of the
stock for that of the New Haven on certain terms.

S I X M O N T H S E N D I N G J U N E 30.

Very little fault can he found with the character o f
the exhibits of railroad gross earnings for June and the
first half of the current calendar year. In view of the
financial disturbances, the bank and mercantile fail­
ures and the generally gloomy tone which pervaded
business circles, the smaller grain, provisions,
cotton and live stock movements, the smaller ore
traffic from the Lake Superior iron mines, and
the other unfavorable factors which existed, the
showing is a surprisingly good one. The earnings last
year, as is known, were large; the totals this year show
further improvement, the gain for the month being
12,258,129, or 5'25 per cent, and for the six months
$12,145,022, or 4-53 per cent. As it cannot he claimed
that the roads received better rates— with the possible
exception of the lines in Texas, which since the State
Railroad Commission was enjoined from enforcing its
tariff have fared better in this respect— the increase
clearly indicates a very large volume of business.
Of course some roads in both the month and the six
months fall behind their figures for last year (though
hardly as many as might be expected under the circum ­
stances), bat the losses in those instances have been
overbalanced -by the more numerous and very heavy
gains which other roads have been able to make. The
ratio of gain for June is somewhat heavier than that
for the six months, and this is due in a measure to th e
absence in that month of some of the special unfavor­
able circumstances which existed earlier in the year,
and also to the increase in passenger traffic resulting
from the W orld’ s Fair, which in June has been a large
item on cereain roads. The following gives the com par­
ative results for a series of years both for the month and
the six months. It will be observed that the improve­
ment has been continuous in both periods through all
the years— at least as far as the totals and the roads
embraced in the same are concerned.

Taking all the cereals together, therefore, the aggre­
gate grain movement at Chicago in the six months of
1893 was thus about 8J million bushels heavier than in
the first half o f 1892. But on the other hand the flour
receipts were smaller than a year ago, and there was
s I bo a loss on the various items of the provisions move­
ment— pork, cut-meats and lard— and likewise a very
heavy contraction in the deliveries of live hogs. These
latter deliveries were only 2,790,794 head in 1893,
against 4,282,828 head in 1892 and 4,519,099 head in
1891. For the month the receipts of hogs were 516,148 head in 1893 and 701,962 head in 1892, the pro­
visions receipts also showing a general falling off, so that
the results for June are similar to those for the six
months. As in that period, too, the aggregate grain
receipts are larger than last year, though in this case
the gain has not come from wheat.
In considering the bearing of the grain movement on
railroad earnings in different parts of the country, a
fact which should not be overlooked is that tbe re­
ceipts at tbe Western markets for tbe half-year by no
means reflect the course of tbe grain movement at the
seaboard. Here there has been a heavy falling off.
According to the New Y ork Produce Exchange tbe
seaboard receipts from January 1 to July 1 in 1893
were only 86,599,043 bushels, against 141,307,007
bushels in 1892, being a decrease of over 54 million
bushels, besides which the flour deliveries were not
quite up to those of a year ago. Evidently, therefore,
the grain movement over the trunk lines to tidewater
was on a smaller scale than last year.
In cotton the falling off for the half-year reached
large proportions, as would be expected from the short
yield of the staple last season. A t the Southern out­
ports the receipts aggregate only 1,230,422 hales for
the six months of 1893, against 2,001,909 bales in
the six months of 1892, a decrease of over
three-quarters of a million bales, and every point with
only one minor exception has shared in the decrease,
as may be seen from the table further below. T o this
loss must be added a farther loss of 214,165 bales on
the overland movement, the gross shipments overland
in l893 having been 515,650 bales against 729,815 bales
in 1892. For June by itself the changes are not so
important, because we are at the tail end of the crop

RECEIPTS AT CHICAGO DOTING JUNE AND SINCE JANUARY 1.

Examination of the list of roads distinguished for
heavy gains in earnings shows what sections and groups
make the best exhibits. The very heaviest increase
for the six months is furnished by the Atchison system,
and amounts to nearly two million dollars— $1,967,682.
The New Y ork Central comes next with an increase of
about 1-J- million dollars, and the Lake Shore stands
third with an increase of a million, while the Rock
Island follows close behind with an increase of $912,958. The Illinois Central has $762,732 increase, the
St. Paul $625,438, the Missouri Kansas & Texas $550,115, the Louisville & Nashville $531,084, the N orfolk
& Western 1492,607, the St. Louis Southwestern $465,762, the Chesapeake & Ohio $369,554, the Interna­
tional & Great Northern $352,491, the Great Northern
$347,590 and the Missouri Pacific $320,811, besides a
great many others whose increase ranges from that
amount down.
The list is not only extensive,
but many different groups and sections, it will be ob­
served, are represented in it— the trunk lines, South­
western roads, Northwestern, Southern, M iddle West­
ern. As for the roads which have sustained the heav­
iest losses, the Northern Pacific has a decrease of about
a million dollars, and the Canadian Pacific a decrease
of $431,364, both roads having suffered severely early
in the year from the cold weather and snows. Aside
from these two roads, the only others which show as
much as a hundred thousand dollars decrease are the
Cleveland Cincinnati Chicago & St. Louis with a loss
of $233,364, the Grand Trunk of Canada system with
a loss of $200,469, the Chicago Great Western with a
loss of $194,445, and the East Tennessee with a loss of
$165,099. W e annex herewith a statement in tabular
form to show all the changes of large magnitude—
whether gains or losses.

In the case of the Pacific roads, the Canadian Pacific,
as already stated, has an increase for the month, while
the Northern Pacific has a considerable decrease; the
B io Grande Western likewise has a decrease, having
suffered with the others from the cut in rates on
trans-continental business.

THE CHRONICLE.

bO

applications for loam have been made at the Bank of England,
and in the open market the rate of interest has been from
about 2 per cent to
per cent. The rate of discount in the
open market recovered to ljg per cent. The market naturally
is in a very sensitive state. The Bank of England is very
strong, the reserve now somewhat exceeding 20 millions
sterling. The supply of money in the open market is also
very large, and will be increased next week by the payment
of the interest on the national debt. But in spite of all that,
there will be a rapid rise in rates, if there are withdrawals for
New York, as many expect; or if the troubles on the Conti­
nent increase.
All silver securities have fallen heavily during the week.
Mexican Government 6 per cents have fallen about 18. Mexi­
can railway securities have likewise dropped very heavily,
and so have Denver railway securities. Upon the Continental
Bourses the anxieties in Berlin and Paris have led to a gen­
eral decline, and there has been a heavy fall in American
railroad secuiities. Argentine securities have also shrunk
much. Partly this is due to the general uneasiness, but
largely it is the result of a sharp rise in the premium on gold,
which is taken to indicate that political difficulties are in­
creasing. The best informed here fear that President Saenz
Pena will have to resign. His natural successor is VicePresident Urituru, who is closely connected with General
Koca. The fear is that General Roca will thereby gain so
much influence over the councils of the Government that the
Radical party will rise in arms against him. Even Argentine
railway stocks have fallen sharply. On the other hand,
Australian Government securities have been fairly steady,
but there is a further decline in Australian bank shares.
A t the fortnightly settlement on the Stock Exchange, which
began on Tuesday morning, the banks lent freely at from
to % % per cent, and within the House the carrying-over rates
were very light. The speculative account open for the rise is
exceedingly small, and therefore the Stock Exchange is in a
better condition to face contingencies than it usually is. At
the same time the fait in many securities has been exceedingly
heavy. Fortunately for the purposts of the settlement, prices
were made up at noon on Tutsday, when the fall had little
more than begun.
There has been good rain during the week, which has de­
cidedly Improved the crop prospects all over.Western Europe.
The wheat market, therefore, continues very quiet. Tne de­
cision of the Indian Government has somewhat stimulated
the Lancashire cotton trade, and there are some signs of a
better state of things in the iron trade; but the coal trade is
very depressed. The Employers Federation is asking for a
reduction of wages of as much as 25 per cent. If they per­
sist, it is feared that there will be a general strike.
Tne following return shows the position of the Bank of
Erg land, the Bank rate of discount, the price o f consols,
compared with the last three years:

Foreign Exchange.—The market for foreign bills has been
very dull and rates have weakened, owing to the small de­
mand, There was some inquiry for bills against the sales of
stocks for foreign account, and this was partially balanced by
a fair supply of grain bills. Gold imports were talked of, but
withoutmuch confidence inany large amounts. Actual rates of
exchange are; Bankers’ sixty days sterling, 4 81%@4 82; de­
mand, 4 88%@4 84; cables, 4 84@4 84%.

THE CHRONICLE,

10 4

There was spent during the 10 months for real estate, Dew
station buildings, bridges, cars and engines, grading for new
track and sidings, a total of $170,656. This will be provided
for out of the special fund of $723,804, and not become a
charge against earnings.
Under the agreement of reorganization this fund is ap­
plicable, subject to the discretion of the Board, for expendi­
tures on account of improvements to or extensions of the rail­
way property from time to time. The agreement of reorgani­
zation further provides for the issue of $20,000,000 4 per cent
50-year bonds, secured by a mortgage on the entire property,
principal and interest guaranteed by the Pennsylvania Rail­
road Company. “ A sufficient amount of these bonds—say
$17,100,000—-with 8 percent added, are to be retained to cover
the liens, subject to which the reorganized company took the
property. The balance of the bonds not required for the
above-mentioned purposes shall remain in the treasury of the
Company, to be issued and used from time to time, as may be
deemed necessary by the Board, for the purposes of improve­
ment and betterment of the property.”

Chicago Junction Railway & Union Stock Yards.
( F o r the y e a r en d in g J un e 30, 1893. )
The pamphlet report of this company says : “ The falling off
in the income of the company was caused entirely by the
diminution in the receipt of hogs, which receipts have now
begun substantially to resume their volume. The legal con­
troversies have all been cleared up. The company has en­
deavored to derive a profit from the 700 acres of land at
Tolleston, and has made arrangements with Swift, Armour &
Morris to plot the land without any expense to the company.
The property has been improved at Chicago at an expense to
the Chicago Company of over $280,000. The improvements
consist of a large horse exchange, a new office wing to the
exchange building, new machine shops, new round-house,
additions to the hotel, and other betterments. These improve­
ments must ensure a large increase in income, and are already
earning substantial profits. The complaint of the character
of the switching service at the yards has been so great that a
new switching system of our own has been inaugurated by
the purchase of thirty switching engines. We contemplate
further improvements as fast as they can be paid for from
surplus earnings afterpayment of all our obligations and divi­
dends. The property of the Stock Yards Company is in far
better physical condition than it ever has been, and the busi­
ness seems to be more permanently established and more
profitable.”
The business for the year ending June 30 shows a slight
falling off on account of the poor run of hogs during the
winter months. The business for June, however, shows a
decided increase over 1892. The directors voted themselves
$2,500 each per year. The Treasurer’s report showed :

The H. B. Clafliii Company.

80, 1893. )
This industrial corporation makes its report for the first half
of 1893. Mi*. John CJaflin, the President, re narks:
“ During the first quarter of the current year our uusiness was
very satisfactory. During the second quarter the disturbed
financial condition of the country reduced the rt suits of the
season to figures below our average. Our net profits for the
la9t six months were $317,263. For the corresponding six
months of 1892 they were $338,280. The immediate out­
look is unpromisiug. If the present monetary stringency
should long continue, our autumn profits would be as meagre
as those of the spring. Our business, however, seems on the
whole to improve from year to year, and we believe that the
future will in the long run show increasing gains.”
The following figures taken from the Treasurer’s report
show the financial condition of the corporation on June 30,
1893, and the proposed distribution of profits:

Speculation in cotton for future delivery at this m ark et
attracts very little new business. Favorable opinions o f the crop
previously entertained have becom e slightly m odified, but the
influence o f that feature was neutralized by reports indicating
a careful feeling at Manchester and by the very marked indiffer­
ence of demand on part o f dom estic spinners. T he strained
m onetary conditions have also served as a check upon new
risks. D uring Saturday’s dealings a very good tone was pre­
served w ith a sm all gain m ade in value in consequence
o f reports o f dry weather at the South. J On M onday the
m arket opened easier under unprom ising cable dispatches,
but upon tbe prom ulgation o f tbe A gricultural B u r e m
report o f crop conditions, show ing a m uch low er percent­
age than expected, there w as a quick m ovem en t to cover short
engagements and a sharp rally in price, m aking a gain for the
day of 13 points. The very next d ay, how ever, the m arket
took a sharp dow nw ard turn o f 15 points, because o f the in­
different m anner in which our G overnm ent crop report was
acted upon abroad, and the receipt o f orders to sell out en­
gagem ents bel l here on L ive rp w l account. D arin g W ed n es­
d ay and yesterday trading was very limited and confined
principally to local operations with flue uations in v a lu - un­
important. To-day the o p -m u g was lower, but upon co n tra­
diction o f previous favorable w eath -r reports from Texas, local
shorts were led m o covering and prices hardened again . Cot­
ton on the spot has been quiet. M iddling uplands close at
8 l-16c.
The total sales for forward delivery for the week are 603.500
bales. For im m ediate delivery the total sales foot up this w. ek
3,556 bales, including 300 for export, 1,758 for consumption
-------for speculation and 1,500 on contract. The follow in g are
the official quncatioi.s for each day o f the past week —

The above statement shows: 1.—That the total receipts from
the plantations since Sept. 1 in 1892-93 are 5,018,290 bales; in
1891-92 were 7,188,140 bales; in 1890-91 were 6,956,721 bales.
2.—That, although the receipts at the outports the past week
were 15,762 bales, the actual movement from plantations was
only 10,448 bales, the balance being taken from the stocks at
the interior towns. Last year the receipts from the plantations
for the week were 7,323 bales and for 1891 they were
7,004 bales.

We give below a statement showing the overland movement
for the week and since September 1. As the leturns reach ua
by telegraph late Friday night it is impossible to enter so
largely into detail as in our regular monthly report, but all
the principal matters of interest are given. This weekly
publication is of course supplementary to the more extended
monthly statements. The results for the week ending July 14
and since Sept. 1 in the last two years are as follows:

C o t t o n P r o d u c t io n , & c ., in C h i n a . — The following c o m ­
munication has been received from the Hon. Charles Denby,
Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary from the
United States to China, in response to a letter we addressed
to him on March 30 last. It contains so much of interest on
the subject covered that we give it in full as received :
L e g a t io n o p t h e U n it e d St a t e s , ?

P e k i n g , J m e 6 ,1 8 9 3 . J
Messrs. William 11. Dana d* Co.. Wo. 1 0 2 William Street. New York.
D ear S i r s : I have burl the honor to receive your letter o f the 30th
of March last, asking for inform ation as to the extent o f cotton culture
in China, m ore particularly as to the quantity raised duringlast season.
* * ” In reply I regret to state that it is im possible to furnish you
with the inform ation sought, in the absence of any published statistics
by China on cotton culture and the quantity produced.
I may add, h ow ever, that cotton is grow n over m ost parts of China,
though o f different degrees o f fineness and length o f staple The great
cotton district is the basin o f the Yangtze River, where tw o varieties,
white and yellow , grow side by Bide. There is a kind o f cotton culti­
vated in the north o f China which is m ostly used for w adding and n ot
woven into cloth. In those regions the plant does n ot often grow
above ten inches, and in the plains o f the Yangtze it does n ot attain
the size of the American plant. It is believed that ih ea m ou n tof cotton
grown in China must he enorm ous, and used almost entirely for native
consumption, although the past year shows an export o f 508,800
peeuls, against 23,000 peculs from Central China a decade ago, the
hulk o f it going to Japan to supply the numerous spinning mills in
that country.
The im port o f foreign cotton into China in 1892 am ounted to about
111,000 peculs.
While grow ing, cotton is carefully tended, thinned, hoed and w eeded
until the flowers begin to appear about August. As soon as the pods
begin to ripen and hurst, the cultivator collects them before they fall
and carries them to his house to clean the cotton o f seeds and husks.
The weather is carefully watched, fo r a dry summer or a wet autumn
is alike unpropitious, and as the pods are ripeniDg from August to
October it is not uncomm on fo r the crop to be partially lost. The
seeds are separated by a wheel turning two rollers, and the cotton
sold generally by the farm ers to the m erchants in the towns. Somo
they keep for w eaving at home. * * *
I remain, dear Sir, yours respectfully,
Charles D e n bt .

J u t e B u t t s , B a g g in g , & c .— Business in jute baggiQg con­
tinues very quiet, but prices have undergone no change. The

doing in jute butts on the spot. Quotations at the close are
1 l-16c. for paper grades and 1 %@l% c. for bagging qualifies.

E a s t I n d i a C r o p P r o s p e c t s . —The following is from Messrs.
Lyon & Co.’s cotton report dated Bombay, June 8:
The weather was unsettled when our last report was written, and, as
mentioned at the time, a cyclone was reuorted to have visited Calcutta
and doue much hanu there, while rain was falling on the coast, and,
as anticipated, Bombay was also visited with a storm, which, how ever,
only lasted about two days, and we have since had flae but oppressive
weather. The rain was heavy but very irregular, and in one part o f
tae island over six inches were reg ister'd , while iu other parts, ac­
cording to the official reports, only from two to four inches fell. The
weather on the coast during the last few days has been v ery unsettled,
and the m msoon current appears to be gradually increasing, and we
expect further heavy raiu is likely to fall before very long now. The
official forecast o f the m onsoon has been issued by the m eteorlogical
reporter to the Governm ent o f ludia. a id generally speaking he antic­
ipates a favorable rainf all over India. Briefly stated, he anticipates an
early and strong monsoon on the Bombay ooa-it. an t considers the
pressure and other conditions are favorable in Beug d, and to a less
extent in Burmah, where the rainfall will be normal or in slight defect.
In the Northwest Provinces and Per ja b the conditions are to some ex ­
tent unfavorable. The conditions are favorable in the Central Prov­
inces, North Deccan, H yd erabai ami Central lu d ia; but slightly un­
favorable in Raj ou tan a ; while in Southern lodta and the Carnatic the
conditions are difficult to forecast, as they depend chiefly upon the
frequency o f breaks iu the rains. In N or'hern India rain appears to
be on the whole probable; but Madras, the D eccan and Mysore will
receive at least normal rain.

C h t j r r u c a , steamer (Span ), before

reported. - A survey was held
July 6 on steamer Churruca, at Savannah, for Genoa, a n l the
board recommended that the cargo in forw ard hold be di^cha-ged
as quickly as possible. There is still lire in the o itcoa. The vessel
will probably be removed to Gordon’s wharf and be d'scharged.
From present indications the burnt cotton will not be m >re ttian
50 bales, and that slightly burnt. The wet cotton may ran up to
400 or 500 bales.
L eona , steamer, from Galveston fo r New York, arrived at Key West
July 8 with cargo on tire, d ie hold was fl *odea. Che hatches
were rem oved July 10 and work of discharging cargo begun. No
damage has been done to the vessel. Loss estimate i at 30 per
cent o f cargo in forward compartment. She will probably pro3eed

TH E DRY GOODS TRADE.
N ew Y ork , Friday, P. M „ July 14,1893.

Business during the past week has shown a slight increase,
but still continues much smaller in volume than usual for
the time of year. The daily lists have shown a considerable
number of buyers arrived in the city, but the dry goods dis­
trict has evidently not been their objective point, and both at
first hands and with jobbers spot transactions have proved
limited. Salesmen on the road are doing a little better, but,
as one of them reports, the trade everywhere stems to be
oppressed “ by an indefinite fear that something dreadful is
about to happen in commercial and financial circles.”
Locally there is a perceptible brightening of tone which,
ifmaintained, may be expected to exercise a good
influence in the sections oppressed by these vague fears.
Reports of curtailment of production in all branches
of the textile industries are rife, and although in miso iustances of an exaggerated character, have a real foundation
Mrlls have closed here and there from the force of circum­
stances peculiar to themselves in a great measure, no con­
certed action being in progress. The fact that the possibility
ot such action is gravely considered as a factor in the situation
is testimony to the unusually dull condition of trade in all its
branches. There is little alteration in the character of collec­
tions ; they are not satisfactory, still they are no wor e than
a week ago.
D o m estic W o o l e n s . —The department for men’s-we:
woolens and worsteds is naturally under tbe same general ir
Huence as the restof the market; stilt there has beenaslightl
improved business doing, buyers showing more iuterest i
new spring goods. The demand comes from more disran
points the nearby and local wholesale clothing trade purchas
mg little. Prices for the new season are setiling down on
lower basis, declines varying from 3 to 10 per cent being u
ported, covering all but one or two exceptionally well ordere
lines. So far low and medium grade all-wool goods hav
done the best, although cotton-warp cassimeres have not bee
neglected. For woolen and woisted dress goods tbe demanr
as represented by new or duplicate orders, is small, current dt
liveries fully meeting buyers’ requirements. In this divisio
also prices are irregular.
.^ M E s m o Co.T™ N G ood s .— The exports of cotton good
rrom this port for the week ending July 11 were 2 20
packages, valued at $128,0.70, their destination being t o ’th
points specified in the table below:

F o r e ig n D r y G o o d s . —Importers

have had little to do dur­
ing the week beyond attending to deliveries of current im­
